We examine the transitions in flow regime which can occur in naturally ventilated thermally massive buildings subject to changes in the wind and buoyancy forcing. For a range of heat loads there are both wind-dominated and buoyancy-dominated flow regimes.

Microbial Odorant Detection Guides Drosophila Parasitoids Seeking Hosts in Fermenting Fruits
Yeast microbes in fermenting fruits attract both host flies and their parasitoid wasps. Female Leptopilina boulardi detect yeast‐emitted ethyl esters via two olfactory receptors, LbouOR167 and LbouOR136. A conserved residue, Leu159, is critical for binding these compounds, enabling female wasps to locate host‐rich habitats.

A mathematical model of the human respiratory system during exercise [PDF]
This paper describes a respiratory control system model and the associated computer simulations for human subjects during incremental exercise, involving work rates from zero up to the highest level in the heavy exercise domain.

A rotational energy harvesting device that successfully reconciles high power density with mechanical durability through a hybrid sliding‐and‐bouncing kinematic mechanism is reported. The success reported in our paper includes addressing a dilemma where enhanced electrical output comes at the cost of increased friction and wear, limiting the practical ...

Residential Hybrid Ventilation Systems in Portugal:Experimental Characterization [PDF]
Due to the variation in natural factors, such as wind speed and the stack effect, natural ventilation systems are unlikely to provide permanent ideal ventilation rates. As such, this paper will characterize the performance of hybrid ventilation systems
