Ants use species-specific trail pheromones to coordinate their sophisticated foraging behavior.During the past decades,many trail pheromone components with various structures have been identified in ants,including the red imported fire ant,Solenopsis invicta,a notorious invasive species worldwide.Four compounds,Z,E-(ZEF)and E,E-α-farnesene(EEF),Z,E-(ZEHF)and E,E-α-homofarnesene(EEHF),have been reported as components of S.invicta trail pheromone.However,another study reported an analog ofα-farnesene,Z,Z,Z-allofarnesene,as a key trail pheromone component.These contrasting results caused some uncertainty about the trail pheromone composition in S.invicta.In this study,we synthesized ZEF and EEF,ZEHF and EEHF,and reanalyzed the chemicals in the Dufour gland extract and in the trail pheromone fraction of S.invicta worker body extract.The reported isomers of farnesene and homofarnesene were detected and showed trail-following activity,with ZEF as the major compound,while no allofarnesene was found,neither in the Dufour gland extract nor in the whole-body extract.Our results confirm ZEF and EEF,ZEHF and EEHF as trail pheromone components of S.invicta. 展开更多

In the context of ongoing densification of cities and aging urban populations,public spaces are a crucial infrastructure to support the physical and mental wellbeing of urban residents.The design of public space furniture elements is often standardised,and not considered in relation to environmental conditions and mechanisms of social interaction.This article presents a digital workflow to generate site-specific designs for shaded public seating,considering the relationships of local public places to their surroundings.A strategy for customised and site-specific design is developed through the use of multiple software tools,employing evolutionary algorithms and multi-objective optimisation.The method is applied to a small public space canopy prototype installed within a public housing estate in Hong Kong,incorporating additional criteria to achieve a low-cost and light-weight structure.Through multiple stages of refinement and optimisation,a material,structural and social performance-driven outcome was achieved that creates a shaded space for public seating,people watching and social interaction.As part of a larger research agenda exploring architectural form-finding and environmental psychology,the project represents potential new applications in the emerging field of socially driven computational design. 展开更多
