High carbon steel/Inconel 718 bimetallic parts produced via Fused Filament Fabrication and Sintering by P. Ferro, F. Bonollo, Alberto Fabrizi, H.S.A. Elsayed, G. Savio, F. Berto

“…Although first-tentative process parameters values were not sufficient to reach an acceptable material densification, a good bonding between Inconel 718 and carbon steel was observed, suggesting the potential to obtain sound bimetallic parts with a great range of material properties. Due to a difference in densification kinetics, sintering temperature was revealed to be the most critical process parameter to optimize to minimize porosity…”

Research on the game of information security investment based on the Gordon-Loeb model by Qin WANG, Jianming ZHU

“…In order to study the impacts of externalities of information security investment,the Gordon-Loeb model was extended to a multi-organization game environment.The relationships of the optimal information security investment with vulnerability,potential loss and investment effectiveness when confronted with different attack types under the positive and negative externalities were obtained respectively,and the difference with the optimal information security investment under the social optimum condition was compared.The results show that there were some similarities in the varying pattern of information security investment between the condition of the positive externality and a single organization,but information security investment under the negative externality changes greatly and was generally more cautious,and attack types also have important impacts on information security investment.…”

Integrated sensing and communications for Internet of vehicles：current status and development trend by Xiang CHENG, Haotian ZHANG, Zonghui YANG, Ziwei HUANG, Sijiang LI, Anlan YU

“…The Internet of vehicles, the most important component of intelligent transportation system (ITS) in the future, is one of the most important technologies to achieve smart traffic and convenient travel for the people.With the vigorous development and continuous utilization of sensing and communication functions, the combination of these two functions, that is, integrated sensing and communications (ISAC) technology of vehicular communication networks, has become the current research hotspot and is of great significance to the development of ITS.Firstly, two different models of ISAC system, i.e., functional ISAC and signaling ISAC were defined and differentiated.Then, for the two different ISAC models, the existing works were reviewed and analyzed comprehensively.Finally, the future development directions and technical challenges of ISAC design in vehicular communication networks were proposed.…”
