Properties of Self-Compacting Concrete with Recycled Coarse Aggregate by W. C. Tang, P. C. Ryan, H. Z. Cui, W. Liao

“…The work presented in this paper seeks to build on the existing knowledge in this area by examining the workability, strength, and fracture properties of SCCs containing 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% coarse RCA. The experimental programme indicated that at RCA utilisation levels of 25% to 50% little or no negative impact was observed for strength, workability, or fracture properties, with the exception of a slight reduction in Young’s modulus.…”

Path recommendation based on geographic coordinates and trajectory data by Zhong-an JIANG, Ming WANG, Ya CHEN

“…In order to overcome the lacking of tourism information recommendation at the tourism websites,travel review websites and travel websites,a hybrid density clustering approach was proposed to identify scenic hotspot based on the data of geographical coordinates and tour route data.To help users searching high-quality resources and planning an effective tour path,a tour path generation algorithm was designed which contained all the attractions in the scenic area by using the HITS algorithm to evaluate the attraction and improving the traditional ACO algorithm.The multi algorithm comparison experiment was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the hot spots and route planning methods.The results show that the method is efficient and practical.…”

The (𝐷) Property in Banach Spaces by Danyal Soybaş

“…A Banach space 𝐸 is said to have (D) property if every bounded linear operator 𝑇∶𝐹→𝐸∗ is weakly compact for every Banach space 𝐹 whose dual does not contain an isomorphic copy of 𝑙∞. Studying this property in connection with other geometric properties, we show that every Banach space whose dual has (V∗) property of Pełczyński (and hence every Banach space with (V) property) has (D) property. …”

Scheme of Attribute-Based Disclosure Mobile Trust Negotiation by Qiuyun Wang, Wenbao Jiang, Hong Wang

“…For it is difficult to use traditional trust negotiation on the mobile environment,which has large communication overhead,storage overhead and computational overhead,an attribute-based disclosure mobile trust negotiation scheme was proposed.In the negotiation process,two sides in trust negotiation exchange certificate which contains encrypted credential attributes firstly,then,one side in trust negotiation can selectively dispose the sensitive attributes to the other side in trust negotiation procedure based on the trust evaluation result of the other,next,two sides in trust negotiation exchange attribute encryption key based on personal security policy until the trust negotiation was completed.The implementation procedure was given in concrete application instances and the scheme was analyzed.…”
