Long-Term Consequences: Deep Time in Barry Lopez’s “The Stone Horse” by Norma Tilden

“…The image is not carved into the hard desert pavement, but constructed from a process of re-arranging small stones and scraping dirt away. Lopez portrays the horse as subtractive art, coaxed out of the land by precise, sustained attention to particularities of natural contour and set in motion by the light of the sun moving across the desert floor. …”

Die Seele als ‚Zwischen‘ by Martina Bengert

“…Her Cahiers (18 notebooks of roughly 2000 pages) are not only a testimony of her work as a translator but more particularly of her attempt – inspired by various mystical experiences – at discovering the underlying relations between Christianity, Hinduism and the texts of Plato whom she considers to be a mystic and the founder of Early Christianity. Predominantly arranged in lists, her thinking constantly circles around the problem of how to read ‘adequately’, how to find true reading. …”

EFFECTS OF MICROSTRUCTURE ON THE LARGE COMPRESSION BEHAVIOR OF RUBBER FOAMS by FAN ZhiGeng, CHEN ChangQing, HU WenJun, WAN Qiang

“…As a type of typical cellular foams,the macro-mechanical performances of rubber foams are mainly determined by its micro-structure and cell material properties.In the work reported here,several two dimensional（ 2D） finite element（ FE）models having regularly and randomly arranged elliptical and circular cells were constructed.The effects of cell shapes,cell distributing,and porosities on the hyperelastic large compressive deformations of rubber foams were explored.Obtained FE analysis results show that the compressive stress-strain curves of rubber foams present three deforming regions.The compressive stress-strain curves of circular cell models have longer plateau stage than those of elliptical cell models,and circular cell models have more steady mechanical performances than elliptical cell models do.If worked as shockproof cushions,circular cell structures are thus better than elliptical cell structures.…”

A Non-interactive Key Exchange Scheme for Space-IntegratedGround Information Network Based on Blockchain by Mengru LIU, Yulong FU, Jin CAO, Hui LI

“…For scenarios such as space-integrated-ground information network where satellite resources are limited and communication delays are large, in response to the requirements of non-interactive key exchange in the satellite communication network, a non-interactive key exchange scheme for space-integrated-ground information network based on blockchain and Diffi e-Hellman key exchange protocol was proposed.The scheme arranged the blockchain in space-integrated-ground information network to form TDYTH blockchain.After the satellite node was registered, its related information was stored in TDYTH blockchain.When the satellite node needed to communicated with the long-distance node such as NCC, the two parties could query the immutable information stored in TDYTH blockchain to generated the shared session key, established consensus, and then completed access authentication and key distribution under non-interactive conditions.The result of simulation demonstrated that the scheme we proposed could meet the requirements of non-interactive key distribution of satellites and other nodes, and could signifi cantly improved security and robustness.…”
