Abstract: Methods for detecting network model data errors are disclosed. In some examples, methods for detecting network model data errors may include splitting a network model into a first plurality of portions, executing an algorithm on each of the portions, identifying a portion for which the algorithm is determined to be non-converged, splitting the identified portion into a second plurality of portions, repeating the executing, identifying and splitting the identified portion until a resulting identified portion is smaller than a predefined threshold, and examining the resulting identified portion to identify plausible data errors therein. In some examples, examining the resulting identified portion to identify plausible data errors therein may include executing a modified algorithm, which may include an augmented measurement set, on the identified portion.

Abstract: Microencapsulated delivery vehicles comprising an active agent are disclosed. In one embodiment, the microencapsulated delivery vehicles are heat delivery vehicles capable of generating heat upon activation. The microencapsulated heat delivery vehicles may be introduced into wet wipes such that, upon activation, the wet wipe solution is warmed resulting in a warm sensation on a user's skin. Any number of other active ingredients, such as cooling agents and biocides, can also be incorporated into a microencapsulated delivery vehicle.

Abstract: Non-aqueous, oil-continuous microemulsions and methods of making such microemulsions are provided. The non-aqueous, oil-continuous microemulsions comprise at least one oil component, at least one non-aqueous polar solvent component, at least one amphiphilic material component, and at least one solubilized polar compound component. The solubilized polar compound can be a polar-acidic agrochemical complex such as glyphosate. The microemulsions can be applied by either conventional mechanical, non-electrostatic or by electrostatic LV or ULV techniques, such as, for example, electrohydrodynamic spraying, and exhibit enhanced pesticidal activity.

Abstract: A process is disclosed which utilizes charged material, preferably created with the use of electrohydrodynamic (EHD), or electric field effect technology (EFET), to apply pesticides, other therapeutic products, or cosmetics to non-animals. In particular, the instant invention relates to the application of certain active ingredients, solvents, spreading oils, colorants, preservatives, thickeners, carriers, or other compounds in a uniform manner so as to minimize dermal reactions, increase efficacy, reduce dosage, and improve ease of use, safety, and convenience.

Abstract: The present invention provides a manufacturing process for quick dissolving products having active ingredients directed to agrochemical applications, such as plant applications and animal and animal health applications. Electrohydrodynamic (EHD) spraying is used to form a product form preferably comprised of fibers that contains a desired agrochemical compound formulated to quickly disintegrate on contact with a solvent such as water. The dispersed chemical is then provided as a sprayable solution. Because the product form contains little or no liquid, significant size and weight savings are gained, higher active ingredient loadings may be placed in a smaller amount of material, and manufacturing, packaging and transportation costs are thereby reduced without impacting user-friendliness. In addition, the EHD manufacturing method of the present invention also permits combining active ingredients previously not capable of effective use together in a single product.
