Bees Swarms and Sound

When Bees Swarm they make a Buzzing Sound as we all know. Why do they do this; does it help them in other ways? Does it help them fly; help them attack their targets in a group? Warn those animals near by to get lost like right now, we are coming thru? Or is this sound uses to help in group-flight characteristics to benefit the entire Swarm.

Exercise Bikes in the Space Colony Stations or Long-Term Space Flight

A proposal has been circulated in an online think tank to put stationary bicycles, which charge batteries about spacecraft, in space colonies and on space bases. One think tanker critical of this idea says...

Will Insects Rule After Humans Become Extinct?

With all this global warming, climate change and climate cliff scares mankind is not sitting in such a wonderful place in the next period as our ancestors of the past period assumed we would be.

Components of Sound Energy in Killer Bee Swarms

In observing Killer Bee Swarms it appears that the Bees produce a buzzing sound and during this sound they confuse their targets and then quickly move to overwhelm them. What is fascinating about this is that the buzzing for the most part comes from the wings when bees swarm

Interfering With Killer Bee Swarms Using Harmonic Methods

Is it possible to find a way to stop a killer bee swarm by using a direction sound weapon and just the right harmonic to cause the wing and its buzzing to stop or disrupt its rhythm? If so wouldn’t the swarm dissipate and collapse along with the individual bee’s wings?

The Key to Stopping Killer Bee and Locust Swarms is Understanding How They Work

Have you ever wondered how an insect swarm works? How it maintains flight or how for instance a Locust Plague can be so devastating in such short periods of time and even travel 1000 miles in less than a week? Well one group in an online think tank recently asked these questions. One member stated;

Swarm Suicide Decoy Scouts to Take Incoming Fire

We all know that in the last decade or so that military war planners and war gamers have considered swarm theory as a primary strategy to overwhelm an enemy. In fact Mainland Red-China considers a barrage of missiles the best way to defeat Taiwan if war ever breaks out.

Swarm Warfare and Quadrant Killing

The revival of swarm tactics in modern warfare is upon us and it makes sense really. Swarming is a natural team defense strategy and it is used in politics, business, sports and war. Overwhelming a market, an opponent, a rival or an enemy with swarm theory can help you achieve victory faster than seemingly possible.

Sound Waves to Causing Structural Failure to Insect Wings

Recently a professional engineer was asked for assistance in the question if sound waves could cause structural failure in insect wings. Why? Well, because it was believed that sound waves could then be used to stop killer bees or locust plagues from swarming and causing deaths or devastation to crops.

Micro MAV Swarms and Sound Wave Evading Measures

In the future our Military will use robotics in warfare. And the sizes of these robots will surprise you. They will be big and small and some will fly and others will be on the ground, still others under the sea. But the most deadly of all may be the ones you can barely see. Indeed we may send in very small micro-mechanical devices in huge swarms, mechanical insects if you will to disrupt the enemy?

Engineering and Toy Making

Dear Parents, have you noticed all the cool toys lately on the shelves at Wal-Mart? Isn’t amazing the level of sophistication and engineering? I means some of these toys are very high-tech, especially the remote control, flying toys

UAV Formation Flying and Slipstream Configuration Radar Signatures

One single stealthy unmanned aerial vehicle may easily sneak into the battlespace alone to do its mission and get out without being detected. But what if you have many and their wake turbulence is detected as the move thru the air. Or what if all their heat signatures

UAV Micro-Mechanical Enemy Swarm Zapper

Can we build an unmanned aerial vehicle to fly into a swarm of insects to zap them? Well what if that insect swarm is not actually organic but tiny little robotic micro-mechanical flying devices with explosive charges or even bio-logical lethal or non-lethal weapons?

Acidic Rivers and Corrosion Issues

Acid Rain is a pretty big issue indeed and as the rivers, streams and fresh water lakes become more acidic not only will it take out water fowl, fish life and destroy the eco-system, but it will also cause man-made objects to corrode faster
