Neuron firing in driven nonlinear integrate-and-fire models [PDF]
Mathematical Biosciences, 2007 Statistical properties of neuron firing are studied in the framework of a nonlinear leaky integrate-and-fire model that is driven by a slow periodic subthreshold signal. The firing events are characterized by first passage time densities. The experimentally better accessible interspike interval density generally depends on the sojourn times in a ...

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

A Minimal Model for the Vegetation Combustion in Wildfire Simulators
Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2018 In this paper a semi-physical model for the vegetation burning in wildland fire is proposed. The model is developed with the final aim to simulate large scale wildland fires which spread on heterogeneous landscape. In a modular modelling approach, it can

Modeling vegetation fires and fire emissions [PDF]
, 2013 Fire is the most important ecological and forest disturbance agent worldwide, is a major way by which carbon is transferred from the land to the atmosphere, and is globally a significant source of greenhouse gases and aerosols. Wildfires across all major biome types globally consume about 5% of net annual terrestrial primary production per annum, and ...

Fire–diffuse–fire model of dynamics of intracellular calcium waves [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1999 When Ca 2+ 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).

Electrical Conductivities of Conductors, Semiconductors, and Their Mixtures at Elevated Temperatures
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This article presents a comprehensive review of temperature‐dependent electrical conductivity data for multiple material classes at elevated temperatures, highlighting a persistent conductivity gap between metals and semiconductors in the range of 102$\left(10\right)^{2}$– 107$\left(10\right)^{7}$ S/m. Metal–ceramic irregular metamaterials are proposed

Uncertainties in façade fire tests – measurements and modeling
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2016 In this paper a comparison between test and modelling results are performed for two large-scale façade fire testing methods, namely SP Fire 105 and BS 8414-1. In order to be able to compare tests and modelling the uncertainties have to be quantified both

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The layer‐by‐layer (LbL) assembly of coordination solids, enabled by the surface‐mounted metal‐organic framework (SURMOF) platform, is on the cusp of generating the organic counterpart of the epitaxy of inorganics. The programmable and sequential SURMOF protocol, optimized by machine learning (ML), is suited for accessing high‐quality thin films of ...

Wildland Fire Behaviour Case Studies and Fuel Models for Landscape‐Scale Fire Modeling [PDF]
Journal of Combustion, 2011 This work presents the extension of a physical model for the spreading of surface fire at landscape scale. In previous work, the model was validated at laboratory scale for fire spreading across litters. The model was then modified to consider the structure of actual vegetation and was included in the wildland fire calculation system Forefire that ...
