Effects of worker size on the dynamics of fire ant tunnel construction.
Social insects work together to complete tasks. However, different individuals within a colony may vary in task proficiency. We investigated if fire ant (Solenopsis invicta) worker body size influenced the ability to construct tunnels--a key component of subterranean nests. We monitored excavation by worker groups in a substrate of small wetted glass particles in quasi-two-dimensional arenas. M...
متن کاملImpact of Vehicles on Smoke Spread Dynamics in the Case of Fire in Road Tunnel
In this paper, the impact of vehicles in road tunnel on smoke spread in case of fire is illustrated using the FDS (Fire Dynamics Simulator) system. FDS is a CFD-based fire field model capable to simulate fire in various environments capturing a big variety of physical processes related to fire. A set of simulations of fire in a 300 m long two-lane single directional road tunnel with longitudina...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Water Mist Suppression of Tunnel-fire Scenarios
Water-mist fire suppression systems offer a number of potential advantages over conventional sprinkler systems. A water-mist system uses very fine droplets of around 50μm diameter, which results in entirely different behaviour. In particular the water-mist remains suspended in air for long periods, and is influenced by the airflows caused by the fire and the general ventilation regime. In order...
متن کاملRoad tunnel fire safety and risk: a review
A review concerning road tunnel fire safety and risk is presented. In particular different perspectives and methods on safety and risk are discussed. Road tunnel fire safety usually involves high uncertainty and high-stakes decisions. Thus, a wider group of stakeholders and different types of knowledge should be included in the fire safety analysis and evaluation, than what is required by techn...
متن کاملFire-diffuse-fire model of dynamics of intracellular calcium waves.
When Ca2+ is released from internal stores in living cells, the resulting wave of increased concentration can travel without deformation (continuous propagation) or with burst-like behavior (saltatory propagation). We analyze the "fire-diffuse-fire" model in order to illuminate the differences between these two modes of propagation. We show that the Ca2+ release wave in immature Xenopus oocytes...
