A hybrid mode to enhance the downward route performance in routing protocol for low power and lossy networks by Sukho Oh, DongYeop Hwang, Kangseok Kim, Ki-Hyung Kim

“…The storing mode may cause routing failures due to constraints on memory in routers and the non-storing mode may cause packet fragmentation that can become a factor for packet delays or loss. Then the problems may degrade the downward route performance in routing protocol for low power and lossy networks. …”

Reflection of two-dimensional surface polaritons by metallic nano-plates on atomically thin crystals by Lee Seojoo, Kang Ji-Hun

“…Our theory predicts that the phase shift saturates to an anomalous value, 0.885π, as the nano-plate becomes thicker. Our work provides a detailed understanding of how to manipulate the 2DSPs by using one of the simplest nanostructures, essential for the further development of nanostructure-integrated low-dimensional devices for polariton optics.…”

Data traceability mechanism based on consortium chain by Shoucai ZHAO, Lifeng CAO, Xuehui DU

“…With the unprecedented growth in the speed of data generation and circulation in the era of big data, the emergence of blockchain technology provides a new solution for data authenticity verification.However, with the increasing demand for data flow between different blockchains, new security issues arise.Cross-chain data transmission can lead to data leakage, and detecting data leakage caused by illegal access becomes challenging.To address these problems, a data traceability mechanism based on a consortium chain was proposed.A cross-blockchain data traceability model was designed, incorporating private data pipelines to ensure the security of cross-chain data transmission.User behaviors were recorded through authorization and access logs, ensuring the traceability of illegal unauthorized access.To improve the efficiency of data traceability and query, an on-chain and off-chain synchronous storage mechanism was adopted.The state of data flow before each transaction was encrypted and stored in the database, and its index was stored in the blockchain transaction.This enables a one-to-one correspondence between on-chain and off-chain data.Additionally, Merkle trees were introduced into the block body to store block summaries, enhancing the efficiency of block legitimacy verification.Based on the data storage form and cross-chain data interaction mechanism, a data traceability algorithm was designed.The traceability results were displayed in the form of an ordered tree.An experimental environment for consortium chain traceability was built using fabric, targeting the cross-domain data traceability scenario in the e-commerce industry.The GO language was used to simulate and test the data traceability performance with a large number of blocks and transactions.The results demonstrate that with the increasing number of blocks and transactions, the proposed data traceability mechanism maintains satisfactory performance.…”

Investigation on Crack Coalescence Behaviors for Granite Containing Two Flaws Induced by Cyclic Freeze-Thaw and Uniaxial Deformation in Beizhan Iron Mining, Xinjing, China by Y. Wang, C. H. Li

“…Results show that the stress–strain curves present a fluctuating growth trend and stress drop phenomenon becomes weaker with increasing F-T cycles. In addition, three different kinds of cracks (tensile-wing cracks, oblique shear cracks, and antiwing cracks) were observed, and the crack coalescence pattern was influenced by the F-T cycles and approach angle. …”
