SSS Workshop on “Collective Behavior Experiments on Living Organisms and ActiveMatter” The field of collective behavior and active matter is developing rapidly. This workshop aims at bringing together experts in the field to present their latest results onexperimental studies of living organisms and active matter, ranging from molecular motors, bacterial colonies, insects, to large-scale animal and human movement. Particular emphasis will be placed on the design and establishment of experiments and analysis and on the theoretical issues arising from the strongly non-equilibrium and nonlinear dynamics of these systems.

CALL FOR PAPERS DEADLINE 31st December 2014 REGISTRATION WILL OPEN IN MARCH 2015 Human Behaviour in Fire is the study of human response when exposed to fire and other similar emergencies in buildings, structures and transportation systems. It includes an understanding of people’s awareness, beliefs, attitudes, motivations, decisions, behaviours and coping strategies and the factors that influence them. The study of human behaviour in fire is highly multidisciplinary, involving practitioners from the fields of mathematics, engineering, architecture, computer science, law, sociology, psychology, human factors, communications and ergonomics. The primary aim of human behaviour research and its translation into practice is to minimise the risk to people from fire. This is achieved by generating and collecting quantitative and qualitative data and information on human responses which can be used to develop human fire response theory for use in performance based regulatory systems, computational models, fire safety engineering design, fire safety education and management. The 6th Human Behaviour in Fire Symposium will facilitate the dissemination, open discussion and debate on diverse issues related to human behaviour in fire through a varied programme of research presentations, seminar discussions and interactive workshops. . All papers related to the field of human behaviour in fire are welcome, however the Programme Committee invites all those interested in this broad research area to join colleagues in Cambridge this autumn to exchange views and ideas in the stunning collegiate setting of Downing College.

Creep Behavior and Its Influence on the Mechanics of Electrodeposited Nickel Films Zengsheng Ma, Shiguo Long, Yong Pan and Yichun Zhou In order to improve the accuracy and comparability of hardness and elastic modulus measurements in nanoindentation, an evaluation of the creep behavior and its in°uence on the mechanical properties of the electrode-posited nickel fillm has been conducted. The influence of loading time and hold period on the hardness and elastic modulus results at maximum load 5000 ¹N has also been examined. It is found that with increasing the loading time, the creep value is decreased. However, the creep value is increased when the hold period is increased. The elastic modulus results are more reliable if the hold period is longer. If the hold period is long enough, the loading time has no remarkable effect on the hardness and elastic modulus measured.
