Critical applied stresses for a crack initiation from a sharp V-notch by L. Náhlík, P. Huta, K. Štegnerová

“…The aim of the paper is to estimate a value of the critical applied stress for a crack initiation from a sharp V-notch tip. The classical approach of the linear elastic fracture mechanics (LELM) was generalized, because the stress singularity exponent differs from 0.5 in the studied case. …”

The influence of urban space in dramatic conflicts: transnationality in Mexican fiction films by Silvana Flores

“… Through this article we will analyze a corpus of Mexican fiction films of its classic-industrial period, produced by Pedro and Guillermo Calderón, Palabras de mujer (José Díaz Morales, 1946) and Maternidad imposible (Emilio Gómez Muriel, 1955), that have as a common nexus the interurban transfers, based on the migration phenomenon, the exploitation of a transnational cast and the influences of differentiated urban spaces in the narrative conflicts. …”

Energy-aware scheduling policy for data-intensive workflow by Peng XIAO, Zhi-gang HU, Xi-long QU

“…With the increasing scale of data centers,high energy consumption has become a critical issue in high-performance computing area.To address the issue of energy consumption optimization for data-intensive workflow applications,a set of virtual data-accessing nodes are introduced into the original workflow for quantitatively evaluating the data-accessing energy consumption,by which a novel heuristic policy called minimal energy consumption path is designed.Based on the proposed heuristic policy,two energy-aware scheduling algorithms are implemented,which are deprived from the classical HEFT and CPOP scheduling algorithms.Extensive experiments are conducted to investigate the performance of the proposed algorithms,and the results show that they can significantly reduce the data-accessing energy consumption.Also,the proposed algorithms show better adaptive when the system is in presence of large-scale workflows.…”

The inner reformation of the sciences: an ambiguity in the radically orthodox thought of John Milbank? by D. F. M. Strauss

“…An alternative idea of Christian scholarship is advanced in opposition to Milbank’s classical Thomistic view, namely that theology has to preserve and fulfil philosophy, echoing the Scholastic adage that grace does not eliminate nature, but perfects it (gratia naturam non tollit, sed perficit). …”

Network traffic classification method basing on CNN by Yong WANG, Huiyi ZHOU, Hao FENG, Miao YE, Wenlong KE

“…Since the feature selection process will directly affect the accuracy of the traffic classification based on the traditional machine learning method,a traffic classification algorithm based on convolution neural network was tailored.First,the min-max normalization method was utilized to process the traffic data and map them into gray images,which would be used as the input data of convolution neural network to realize the independent feature learning.Then,an improved structure of the classical convolution neural network was proposed,and the parameters of the feature map and the full connection layer were designed to select the optimal classification model to realize the traffic classification.The tailored method can improve the classification accuracy without the complex operation of the network traffic.A series of simulation test results with the public data sets and real data sets show that compared with the traditional classification methods,the tailored convolution neural network traffic classification method can improve the accuracy and reduce the time of classification.…”

Three-Dimensional Poincaré Plot Analysis for Heart Rate Variability by Bin Wang, Dewen Liu, Xin Gao, Yunlei Luo

“…Firstly, the Poincaré plot and some classic indicators are briefly discussed. Because the standard analysis method inherently ignores the embedding temporal information of the RR interval time series, the temporal variation of the time series cannot be adequately reflected. …”

16QAM-LFM waveform design for integrated radar and communication by Hao ZENG, Lixia JI, Feng LI, Chuang LI

“…A kind of high-order integrated radar communication waveform pulse was proposed,which combined 16QAM and LFM together.The new waveform took LFM signal as the carrier of the 16QAM,so that high communication capacity was achieved and the radar performance was not impacted.The analysis and computer simulation for the 16QAM-LFM waveform show that the new waveform has the same bit error rate as the classic 16QAM signal and larger spectrum efficiency compared with the integrated waveforms such as BPSK-LFM and MSK-LFM.Furthermore,the computational complexity of 16QAM-LFM is less than the existing OFDM-LFM waveform.On the other hand,16QAM-LFM has higher distance resolution and speed resolution than the traditional LFM pulse signal since its ambiguity function looks like a thumb tack.And the detection probability of radar is similar as traditional LFM pulse signal for the slowly moving object.…”
