Study on Cleaning Effect of Different Water Flows on the Pulsed Cavitating Jet Nozzle by Chengting Liu, Gang Liu, Zuoxiu Yan

“…During the experiment on erosion effects, the flow rate had little influence on outside diameter of the erosion circle. The erosion rate increased with the increase of the flow rate, reached the peak value at Q = 7.2 m3/h, but slightly decreased subsequently.…”

Evaluating and refining undersea cable path planning algorithms: A comparative study. by Tianjiao Wang, Zengfu Wang, Bill Moran, Xinyu Wang, Moshe Zukerman

“…We present a fair and comprehensive comparison method for evaluating multiple algorithms-DBA, the Fast Marching Method (FMM), and a great circle-based method. To evaluate the performance of automated path-planning methods, we compare them based on two main criteria: (1) the total weighted cost which is a combined measure of various costs and risks of the cable path according to their weights, and (2) the algorithm's runtime. …”

Environmental photocatalytic processes with POM. The photodecomposition of atrazine and photoreduction of metal ions from aqueous solutions by A. Hiskia, A. Troupis, E. Papaconstantinou

“…Polyoxometalate anions (POM), resulting from the condensation of tungstate anions in strongly acidified solutions, can absorb efficiently light in the UV-near Vis region.The produced excited state is a very powerful oxidative reagent which can, mainly via OH radical attack, oxidize and mineralize a great variety of organic pollutants in aqueous solutions, while the photocatalytic circle is closed by reoxidation of the reduced POM, mainly, by O2. …”

Fog-aided identity privacy protection scheme for sensing users in mobile crowd sensing by Hui LIU, Renwan BI, Jinbo XIONG, Mingfeng ZHAO, Biao JIN, Jie LIN

“…In mobile crowd sensing(MCS),attackers can reconstruct the social circle among sensing users,who use the social association information among sensing users and the correlation between the sensing user’s identity and sensing data to further attack a social alliance.In order to tackle this issue,a fog-aided identity privacy protection scheme is proposed.Firstly,two fog nodes are introduced which located at the edge of the sensing terminal.The one is task allocation center (TC) for handling the reasonable allocation of sensing tasks,and the other is data center (DC) for calculating sensing data.Furthermore,differential privacy is employed for preventing attackers from acquiring the specific social association weight of sensing users.Finally,in order to prevent attackers from obtaining the sensing users' identity information and sensing data at the same time,sensing users use different blind identities to communicate with TC and DC.Security analysis indicates that the proposed scheme can ensure the security of identity privacy information of sensing users in the process of completing sensing tasks.Experimental results show that the proposed scheme can protect the social association information between sensing users,and has a low delay.…”
