Thoracic vibrations in stingless bees (Melipona seminigra): resonances of the thorax influence vibrations associated with flight but not those associated with sound production
(COMPANY OF BIOLOGISTS LTD, 2008)
Bees generate thoracic vibrations with their indirect flight muscles in various behavioural contexts. The main frequency component of non-flight vibrations, during which the wings are usually folded over the abdomen, is ...
The recruiter's excitement – features of thoracic vibrations during the honey bee's waggle dance related to food source profitability
(Company of Biologists, 2011-12)
The honey bee's waggle dance constitutes a remarkable example of an efficient code allowing social exploitation of available feeding sites. In addition to indicating the position (distance, direction) of a food patch, both ...
The sound field generated by tethered stingless bees (Melipona scutellaris): inferences on its potential as a recruitment mechanism inside the hive
(COMPANY OF BIOLOGISTS LTD, 2008)
In stingless bees, recruitment of hive bees to food sources involves thoracic vibrations by foragers during trophallaxis. The temporal pattern of these vibrations correlates with the sugar concentration of the collected ...
Honey bee workers generate low-frequency vibrations that are reliable indicators of their activity level
(Springer, 2019-02)
In social insects, the tuning of activity levels among different worker task groups, which constitutes a fundamental basis of colony organization, relies on the exchange of reliable information on the activity level of ...
Analysis of acoustic frequency and wave amplitude generated by the Oscillatory Thoracic Thixotropic Device (Diottix(r)) in human chest
(Universidade de São Paulo, 2015)
Efeitos do Diottix® e Pulsar® na função cardiorrespiratória de indivíduos submetidos a ventilação mecânica
(Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), 2020-03-06)
Introdução: Os pacientes em ventilação mecânica invasiva (VMI) frequentemente sofrem com acúmulo de secreções pulmonares. Com o objetivo de prevenir e reduzir as complicações causadas pela VMI advindas do acúmulo de secreções ...
Analysis of acoustic frequency and wave amplitude generated by the Oscillatory Thoracic Thixotropic Device (Diottix(r)) in human chest
(Universidade de São Paulo, 2014-12-01)
Diottix(r) was calibrated at 25 Hz to achieve the frequency indicated in literature as being effective to mobilize the airways secretions. However, the amplitude and frequency of the waves generated by the equipment in ...
Variables podométricas del casco y su relación con la caracterización radiográfica de los cartílagos ungueales de la falange distal en equinos de equitación
(Universidad de Chile, 2018)
Los cartílagos ungueales, extensiones cartilaginosas de la falange distal, proporcionan apoyo en la cara palmar del pie, ayudan al retorno venoso de este y disipan fuerzas de impacto. Estos pueden osificarse reduciendo la ...
