This paper focuses on to the study of the origins of Blue spectrum reflections of the elytron of Necrobia rufipes, of large family of Cleridae. We combine experimental and numerical method, to explain the structure responsible of the elytron blue color. The experimental results h...

In this work, we conduct a thermal study on the installation of an incinerator of gas generated by the carbonization of household wastes. We used a forced and laminar flows, with Reynolds number ranging between 500 and 2,000. Beyond 2,000, in our simulation, computer programs are...
