Permutations from APN power functions over <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <msub> <mi>F</mi> <mrow> <msup> <mn>2</mn> <mrow> <mn>2<... by Shi-zhu TIAN

“…APN functions have the lowest differential uniform over finite fields with characteristic 2 and the APN power functions are the most classical ones.APN power functions are all 3-1 functions over <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <msub> <mi>F</mi> <mrow> <msup> <mn>2</mn> <mrow> <mn>2</mn><mi>n</mi></mrow> </msup> </mrow> </msub> </math></inline-formula>.By generalizing the idea of changing 2-1 functions to 1-1 functions over finite fields with odd characteristics,methods to change 3-1 functions over finite fields with even characteristics into permutations were obtained and permutations from APN power functions over <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <msub> <mi>F</mi> <mrow> <msup> <mn>2</mn> <mrow> <mn>2</mn><mi>n</mi></mrow> </msup> </mrow> </msub> </math></inline-formula> were constructed.According to the construction,the differential properties of permutations obtained by this method were discussed.…”

RESEARCH ON THE INFLUENCE FACTORS OF TAILOR-WELDED BLANKS WITH ARC-WELD-LINE by GAN Yong, LI HongZHao, OUYANG JieWei, QIN Xi

“…Friction coefficient and blank-holder force is not very big on the influence of the formability of tailor-welded sheet,but the bigger friction coefficient and the bigger total blankholder force affect on both sides of the base material of liquidity,finally,it affects the quality of the forming of the sheet metal.Thickness ratio should be carefully considered in the design of welding plate. Generally,the thickness ratio between 1. 0-1. 0and 1. 0-1. 4 improved the forming of tailor-welded blanks with arc-weld-line,the small and large of thickness ratio are not beneficial to tailor-welded sheet forming.…”
