Behavioural responses of Canis familiaris to different tail lengths of a remotely-controlled life-size

The tail of dogs and allies (Canidae) is important for intraspecific communication. We used a life-sized dog model and varied the tail length and motion as an experimental method of examining effects of tail-docking on intraspecific signaling in domestic dogs, Canis familiaris. We videotaped interactions of 492 off-leash dogs and quantified size and behaviour of approaching dogs to the model’s ...

Simulation and Control of a Methanol-To-Olefins (MTO) Laboratory Fixed-Bed Reactor

In this research, modeling, simulation, and control of a methanol-to-olefins laboratory fixed-bed reactor with electrical resistance furnace have been investigated in both steady-state and dynamic conditions. The reactor was modeled as a one-dimensional pseudo-homogeneous system. Then, the reactor was simulated at steady-state conditions and the effect of different parameters including...

The force driving mating behavior in the house musk shrew (Suncus murinus).

The mating behavior of the domesticated house musk shrew was observed in detail under laboratory conditions. The observations revealed that the house musk shrew has a series of behaviors before copulation. Tactile, auditory and chemical senses appear to function as flags for the recognition of conspecifics and to promote the development of an interaction between the sexes. The tactile senses an...
