Perceptual Hashing-Based Robust Image Authentication Scheme for Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks by Hongxia Wang, Bangxu Yin

“…In the proposed scheme, first, the cluster head node generates a secure pseudorandom chaotic sequence with keys and sends it to the image capturing node, then the image capturing node uses the received chaotic sequence to divide randomly the captured image into several overlapping rectangles, after that, two gravity centers of each rectangular region block are calculated, and finally the binary distance of the two gravity centers will be calculated in each general cluster member node. …”

Digitally-Driven Architecture by Henriette Bier, Terry Knight

“…Digitally-driven architecture implies, therefore, not only digitally-designed and fabricated architecture, it also implies architecture – built form – that can be controlled, actuated, and animated by digital means. In this context, this sixth Footprint issue examines the influence of digital means as pragmatic and conceptual instruments for actuating architecture. …”

Cloud-Based Fault Tolerant Control for a DC Motor System by Xiao He, Yamei Ju, Yang Liu, Bangcheng Zhang

“…Packet dropout phenomenon introduced by the limited-capacity communication channel is considered. Actuator faults are taken into consideration and fault diagnosis and fault tolerant control methods towards actuator faults are proposed to enhance the reliability of the whole cloud-based DC motor system. …”

A Method to Transit the Rotor-to-Stator Rubbing to Normal Motion Using the Phase Characteristic by Jieqiong Xu, Qunhong Li, Shimin Wang

“…The key point of this technique is to express the attractive domain of no-rub motion based on the phase characteristic and to represent the desired status. The feedback actuation is applied by an active auxiliary bearing to drive the rotor approaching the desired status. …”

Foraging Behavior of Odontomachus bauri on Barro Colorado Island, Panama by Birgit Ehmer, Bert Hölldobler

“…The activity of the ants did not show any daily pattern; foragers were active day and night. The type of prey captured by O. bauri supports the idea that in higher Odontomachus and Anochetus species, the high speed of mandible closure serves more for generating power than capturing elusive prey. …”

Les mobilités internes en Tunisie depuis la fin des années 1990 : une dynamique géographique à différentes échelles by Hajer Ben Hamza, France Guérin-Pace

“…A distinctive feature of the internal mobility following the events of 2011, which the census does not capture, is that the movements seem largely temporary, as captured by the ETST survey.…”

Regularization of the Shock Wave Solution to the Riemann Problem for the Relativistic Burgers Equation by Ting Zhang, Chun Shen

“…For Riemann initial data consisting of a single decreasing jump, we find that the regularization of nonlinear convective term cannot capture the correct shock wave solution. In order to overcome it, we consider a new regularization technique called the observable divergence method introduced by Mohseni and discover that it can capture the correct shock wave solution. …”
