Abstract The grating ends bonding fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor has been widely used in sensor packages such as substrate type and clamp type for health monitoring of large structures. However, owing to the shear deformation of the adhesive layer of FBG, the strain measured by FBG is often different from the strain of actual matrix, which causes strain measurement errors. This investigation aims at improving the measurement accuracy of strain for the grating ends surface-bonded FBG. To fulfill this objective, a strain transfer equation of the grating ends bonding FBG is derived, and a theoretical… More >

Abstract A new method is proposed to simulate progressive failure processes in heterogeneous brittle materials such as concrete, ceramics, rocks etc., by considering the time-dependence of stress redistributions induced by local breakages. Two mechanisms of stress redistribution are incorporated into the proposed model in order to account for the influence of each local breakage on the remaining specimen: (1) One is the immediate release of internal forces in the breaking element, which is assumed to happen within an infinitesimal time when compared with the characteristic time of external loadings. The release of such internal forces is… More >

Abstract With the rapid development of E-commerce and E-government, there are so many electronic records have been produced. The increasing number of electronic records brings about storage difficulties, the traditional electronic records center is difficult to cope with the current fast growth requirements of electronic records storage and management. Therefore, it is imperative to use cloud storage technology to build electronic record centers. However, electronic records also have weaknesses in the cloud storage environment, and one of them is that once electronic record owners or managers lose physical control of them, the electronic records are more More >

Abstract With the wide application of information technology in urban infrastructure, urban construction has entered the stage of smart city, forming a large number of network electronic records. These electronic records play a vital role in the maintenance of urban infrastructure. However, how to preserve the network electronic records in the field of urban construction is still lack of a comprehensive and serious study. Aiming at this problem, the paper proposes to use the technology of broadcast-storage network to preserve the network electronic records for a long time and gives the concrete preservation process.

Abstract The condensation process of dew droplets is influenced by many factors. A dew point condensation image observation system was built to improve the response speed of dew point detector under different measuring conditions. The basic mechanism of dew drop condensation growth was studied and the influence of various factors on the dew drop growth rate were analyzed. And the accuracy of the influence results was verified based on the improved Hough transform circle detection. The results show that the growth rate of dew droplets is affected by ambient temperature, dew point temperature, mirror temperature and More >

Abstract Ischemic stroke, although causing brain infarction and neurological deficits, can activate innate neuroprotective mechanisms, including regional mechanisms within the ischemic brain and distant mechanisms from non-ischemic organs such as the liver, spleen, and pancreas, supporting neuronal survival, confining brain infarction, and alleviating neurological deficits. Both regional and distant mechanisms are defined as systems neuroprotective mechanisms. The regional neuroprotective mechanisms involve release and activation of neuroprotective factors such as adenosine and bradykinin, inflammatory responses, expression of growth factors such as nerve growth factors and neurotrophins, and activation and differentiation of resident neural stem cells to neurons… More >

Abstract Process object is the instance of process. Vertexes and edges are in the graph of process object. There are different types of the object itself and the associations between object. For the large-scale data, there are many changes reflected. Recently, how to find appropriate real-time data for process object becomes a hot research topic. Data sampling is a kind of finding c hanges o f p rocess o bjects. There i s r equirements f or s ampling to be adaptive to underlying distribution of data stream.

Abstract The importance of Blockchain and IoT technology have been highlighted in various fields. These are not unaccustomed words anymore in our lives. Although the technologies are in the infancy step and are still many remaining technical challenges, there is no doubt that it will be one of the major parts of the future Internet. The efficiency and security of data transmission scheme have always been major issues in the legacy Internet, and a data transmission scheme for the future Internet, including 5G and IoT environment should also provide and support these issues. Consequently, we propose… More >

Abstract With the evolution of location-based services (LBS), a new type of LBS has already gain a lot of attention and implementation, we name this kind of LBS as the Device-Dependent LBS (DLBS). In DLBS, the service provider (SP) will not only send the information according to the user’s location, more significant, he also provides a service device which will be carried by the user. DLBS has been successfully practised in some of the large cities around the world, for example, the shared bicycle in Beijing and London. In this paper, we, for the first time,… More >
