Wolves in sheep’s clothing: three new cases of aggressive mimicry in Red Sea coral reef fishes

ABSTRACT

Here we document three cases of mimicry in coral reef fishes not previously reported in the literature involving two groupers (Epinephelus leucogrammicus and Plectropomus marisrubri) and a soapfish (Diploprion drachi) as mimics, and two wrasses (Larabicus quadrilineatus and Cheilinus quinquecinctus) and a blenny (Meiacanthus nigrolineatus) as models. All three cases are of aggressive mimicry, with a predatory species mimicking a harmless one, and in one of the cases, the mimicry is also Müllerian, where both the predator and harmless species are unpalatable.

Numerical Simulation of the COVID-19 Herd Immunity Based on Complex Network Modeling北大核心CSCD

鉴于构建流行病动力学模型、探索流行病传播规律对疫情防控具有十分重要的理论意义和实际应用价值,在已有的均匀混合模型基础上,针对个体接触关系异质化越发明显,且每个个体都处在不同的接触关系中,建立了兼顾个体状态与接触追踪的动态小世界网络模型。模拟了新冠病毒在社会中的传播过程。通过对比仿真结果,说明了所建模型的合理性。在此基础上,仿真计算了网络拓扑结构与接种免疫人数占比共同作用下对新冠病毒传播的影响,分析得到群体免疫临界值。说明所建传播模型合理,接种疫苗实现群体免疫可行。     

基于显式动力学的发动机转子中介轴承的仿真分析

为研究复杂工况下中介轴承的动力学特性，针对外圈支承于低压转子轴颈，内圈支承于高压转子轴颈支承形式的中介轴承的工作特点，应用LS-DYNA建立了中介圆柱滚子轴承动力学模型，开展动力学仿真。该模型以显式算法为基础，在充分考虑中介轴承转速、旋转方向、负载、接触及摩擦的条件下，基于动力学仿真模型，分析了中介轴承应力水平随内外圈旋转方向、内外圈转速及径向外载荷变化的规律。分析结果表明：在内外圈反向旋转以及外圈转速增加的情况下中介轴承的振动更为平稳，而在径向外载荷增大的情况下，中介轴承的振动更加剧烈。仿真结果验证了模型的正确性，为中介轴承故障诊断提供了有益参考。
