متن کاملFighting Fire with Agents
In this paper we propose a model for coordinating teams of computational agents. This model is especially aimed for coordinating agents performing in a simulated environment of forest firefighting, although it may be used in other domains. We will start by introducing the Pyrosim platform where we are carrying out our experiments. Pyrosim is a tool developed in our laboratory that simulates a f...
متن کاملResearch on Ride Comfort of Diminutive Forest Fire-fighting Vehicles
To improve the efficiency of forest fire fighting, ride comfort is very important for firemen to maintain good physical condition. Firstly, a whole vehicle model was established with the ADAMS/view(Automatic Dynamic Analysis of Mechanical Systems) software. Next, test and simulation were performed to verify the three-dimensional model. Finally, the comparison of real vehicle test and ride comfo...
متن کاملEradication of poliovirus: fighting fire with fire.
