Fire occurrence increased with proximity to roads and villages, indicating that human access and activity are major drivers of fire risk. We analyzed spatial patterns of fire in relation to human settlements. Our findings highlight the need for fire management strategies that consider accessibility and human presence in conservation planning.

How Many Floods Have Occurred in China in the Past Decade? A Perspective From Social Media
Abstract Global climate change has led to frequent and widespread flood disasters in China. Traditional flood disaster investigations mainly focus on major flood events, and small‐scale flood events are often overlooked. This study utilized the Sina Weibo social media platform to detect flood events in 370 cities in China from 2012 to 2023.

Abstract Illegal collecting of wild Venus flytraps (Dionaea muscipula) for the horticultural trade represents a persistent threat to populations of the species across their endemic range in the coastal plain of North and South Carolina (United States). Although wild collecting of Venus flytraps is not a novel threat, there has been very little research

Abstract Disaster‐specific Facebook groups (DSFGs) are Facebook groups devoted to a specific disaster or set of disasters. I argue DSFGs offer opportunities for disaster response and resilience organizing that can mitigate the limitations of institutionalized disaster response and illustrate the benefits and detriments of the use of DSFGs by survivors ...

Experimentally testing animal responses to prescribed fire size and severity
Abstract Deserts are often highly biodiverse and provide important habitats for many threatened species. Fire is a dominant disturbance in deserts, and prescribed burning is increasingly being used by conservation managers and Indigenous peoples to mitigate the damaging effects of climate change, invasive plants, and land‐use change. The size, severity,

Local populations are aware of the decline and disappearance of Detarium species in their habitats, attributing this trend to excessive human exploitation and the effects of climate change. Thus, Detarium plant resources may face challenges in forests with different levels of protection status due to habitat fragmentation and the effects of climate ...

现行《建筑钢结构防火技术规范》(GB 51249—2017)未给出火灾下钢结构的局部稳定设计方法,为了获得轴心受压焊接H形高强Q690钢柱高温下的局部稳定性能,考虑钢材高温下力学性能退化、截面高温下焊接残余应力降低及初始几何缺陷,采用ABAQUS软件建立经试验验证的高温局部稳定分析有限元模型,得到焊接H形高强Q690钢柱在不同温度下的局部屈曲应力和极限应力。研究表明:当温度低于550℃时,钢柱在高温下和常温下屈曲应力具有相同的变化趋势;高温下的残余应力值和初始几何缺陷对屈曲应力有较大的影响 ...

采用基于有限元理论开发的ANSYS软件建立了张弦梁数值分析模型,按温度增量法对其火灾历程中的力学反应进行分析。讨论了在升温历程中,温度场非均匀性、荷载比、垂跨比、火源半径、火源位置以及支座约束对张弦梁上弦钢梁及下弦预应力索力学特征的影响以及跨中挠度的变化历程。得出以下结论:随着温度分布非均匀性的减小,在升温历程中,上弦钢梁强度应力历程下降速率增大,而稳定应力呈先增加后下降趋势,下弦索应力变化很小;随着荷载比增大,结构临界温度降低,结构跨中挠度增长速率也变大;随着垂跨比的增大,结构受火失效截面位置发生改变,

采用有限元软件ABAQUS建立了用于模拟预应力组合梁在火灾下全过程受力行为的模型,研究拉索防火涂层对预应力连续组合梁抗火性能的影响。考察组合梁跨中挠度、拉索应力及塑性应变随温度的变化,分析了预应力组合梁在高温下的温度变化和破坏模式。结果表明:钢梁下翼缘与腹板升温较快,二者温差很小,而腹板与上翼缘的温差较大;混凝土截面各测点处升温速率由下至上依次降低,上表面与下表面的最高温度差可达约700℃;当拉索有5 mm厚防火涂层时,在升温前期其温度随时间延长而上升的幅度比无防火层时温度上升的幅度要小,同一升温时间下,

为研究残余应力对钢梁内嵌式的预应力简支组合梁在火灾效应下的受力性能的影响,通过ABAQUS软件建立钢梁内嵌式的预应力简支钢-混组合梁几何非线性和材料非线性的有限元模型,利用热力-耦合法计算组合梁在高温下的结构响应行为。通过对梁的截面温度、整体挠度和跨中挠度、跨中截面应力分布、拉索应力和塑性变形、梁的整体曲率和跨中曲率等特性在高温下的结构响应进行考察,探究工程应用中常见初始残余应力对组合梁的影响机理。结果表明:残余应力主要是通过影响钢梁的截面模量,进而对钢梁的截面抗弯刚度产生影响 ...
