A Response Threshold Model for Ant Colonies
Division of labor in social insects has been a widely studied topic in entomology. A number of models have been developed in order to explain how insects perform various tasks to fulfill the needs of their colony. One particular model that was introduced by Robinson and Page [2] is the response threshold model, in which individual insects perceive colony needs through certain stimuli they encou...
متن کاملLubricating bacteria model for branching growth of bacterial colonies.
Various bacterial strains (e.g., strains belonging to the genera Bacillus, Paenibacillus, Serratia, and Salmonella) exhibit colonial branching patterns during growth on poor semisolid substrates. These patterns reflect the bacterial cooperative self-organization. A central part of the cooperation is the collective formation of a lubricant on top of the agar which enables the bacteria to swim. H...
متن کاملOrientation field model for chiral branching growth of bacterial colonies
We present a new reaction-diffusion model for chiral branching growth of colonies of the bacteria Paenibacillus dendritiformis. In our model the bacteria are represented by a density field with nonlinear diffusion and a complex scalar field which represents bacterial orientation. The orientation field introduces anisotropy into the flux of bacteria, representing self-propulsion along their long...
متن کاملSynthetic quorum sensing in model microcapsule colonies.
Biological quorum sensing refers to the ability of cells to gauge their population density and collectively initiate a new behavior once a critical density is reached. Designing synthetic materials systems that exhibit quorum sensing-like behavior could enable the fabrication of devices with both self-recognition and self-regulating functionality. Herein, we develop models for a colony of synth...

با توجه به تحریم های بین المملی علیه صنعت بیمه ایران امکان استفاده از بازارهای بین المملی بیمه ای برای نفتکش های ایرانی وجود ندارد. از طرفی از آنجایی که یکی از نوآوری های اخیر استفاده از بازارهای مالی به منظور ریسک های فاجعه آمیز می باشد. از اینرو در این پایان نامه سعی شده است با استفاده از این نوآوری ها با طراحی اوراق اختیارات راهی نو جهت بیمه گردن نفت کش های ایرانی ارائه نمود. از آنجایی که بر...
