Abstract As the main communication mediums in industrial control networks, industrial communication protocols are always vulnerable to extreme exploitations, and it is very difficult to take protective measures due to their serious privacy. Based on the SDN (Software Defined Network) technology, this paper proposes a novel event-based anomaly detection approach to identify misbehaviors using non-public industrial communication protocols, and this approach can be installed in SDN switches as a security software appliance in SDN-based control systems. Furthermore, aiming at the unknown protocol specification and message format, this approach first restructures the industrial communication sessions and merges the payloads from industrial communication… More >

Abstract With the rapid development of information network, the computing resources and storage capacity of ordinary users cannot meet their needs of data processing. The emergence of cloud computing solves this problem but brings data security problems. How to manage and retrieve ciphertext data effectively becomes a challenging problem. To these problems, a new image retrieval method in ciphertext domain by block image encrypting based on Paillier homomophic cryptosystem is proposed in this paper. This can be described as follows: According to the Paillier encryption technology, the image owner encrypts the original image in blocks, obtains the image in ciphertext domain,… More >

Abstract The paper develops and employs analytical-numerical solution method for the study of the time-harmonic dynamic stress field in the system consisting of the hollow cylinder and surrounding elastic medium under the non-axisymmetric forced vibration of this system. It is assumed that in the interior of the hollow cylinder the point-located with respect to the cylinder axis, non-axisymmetric with respect to the circumferential direction and uniformly distributed time-harmonic forces act. Corresponding boundary value problem is solved by employing of the exponential Fourier transformation with respect to the axial coordinate and by employing of the Fourier series expansion of these transformations.

Abstract In the present scenario, computational modeling has gained much importance for the prediction of the properties of concrete. This paper depicts that how computational intelligence can be applied for the prediction of compressive strength of Self Compacting Concrete (SCC). Three models, namely, Extreme Learning Machine (ELM), Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) and Multi Adaptive Regression Spline (MARS) have been employed in the present study for the prediction of compressive strength of self compacting concrete. The contents of cement (c), sand (s), coarse aggregate (a), fly ash (f), water/powder (w/p) ratio and superplasticizer (sp) dosage have been taken as inputs… More >

Abstract Our study is dedicated to mixed initial boundary value problem for porous micropolar bodies. We prove that the solution of this problem depends continuously on coefficients which couple the micropolar deformation equations with the equations that model the evolution of voids. The evaluation of this dependence is made by using an appropriate measure. More >

Abstract The subject of the paper is the study of the dynamics of the moving load acting on the hydro-elastic system consisting of the elastic plate, compressible viscous fluid and rigid wall. Under this study the motion of the plate is described by linear elastodynamics, and the motion of the compressible viscous fluid is described by the linearized Navier-Stokes equations. Numerical results are obtained for the case where the material of the plate is steel, but the fluid material is Glycerin. According to these results, corresponding conclusions related to the influence of the problem parameters, such as fluid viscosity, plate thickness,… More >

Abstract The study of periodic structures, namely sonic crystals, for sound attenuation purposes has been a topic of intense research in the last years. Some efficient methods are available in literature to solve the problem of sound propagation in the presence of this kind of structures such as those based in the Multiple Scattering Theory (MST) or the Finite Element Method (FEM). In this paper a solution based on the Method of Fundamental Solutions (MFS) which presents advantages, namely in computational discretization and calculation costs, is presented. The proposed formulation considers the presence of elastic ring shaped scatterers, correctly accounting for… More >

Abstract Automated optical inspection systems installed in production lines help ensure high throughput by speeding up inspection of defects that are otherwise difficult to detect using the naked eye. However, depending on the size and surface properties of the products such as micro-cracks on touchscreen panels glass cover, the detection speed and accuracy are limited by the imaging module and lighting technique. Therefore the current inspection methods are still delegated to a few qualified personnel whose limited capacity has been a huge tradeoff for high volume production. In this study, an automated optical technology for in-line surface defect inspection is developed… More >

Abstract For the numerical solution of an ill-posed positive linear system we combine the methods from invariant manifold theory and sliding mode control theory, developing an affine nonlinear dynamical system with a positive control force and with the residual vector as being a gain vector. This system is proven asymptotically stable to the zero residual vector by using an argument from the Lyapunov stability theory. We find that the system fast tends to the sliding surface and then moves with a sliding mode, such that the resultant sliding mode control algorithm (SMCA) is robust against large noise and stable to find… More >

Abstract This paper presents a novel mathematical framework for building a comprehensive materials knowledge system (MKS) to extract, store and recall hierarchical structure-property-processing linkages for a broad range of material systems. This new framework relies heavily on the use of computationally efficient FFT (Fast Fourier Transforms)-based algorithms for data-mining local structure-response-structure evolution linkages from large numerical datasets produced by established modelling strategies for microscale phenomena. Another salient feature of this new framework is that it facilitates flow of high fidelity information in both directions between the constituent length scales, and thereby offers a new strategy for concurrent multi-scale modelling of materials… More >
