Correlation-immunity study of balanced H-Boolean functions by Wei-wei LI

“…As a novel definition,E-derivative was introduced to study problems that are extremely difficult to handle in the cryptographic system.By using the way of combining derivative with E-derivative and correlation-immunity of H-Boolean functions,the distribution structure of balanced H-Boolean functions were deeply analyzed,and some important results on how to determine whether or not a H-Boolean function has correlation-immunity with the relatively simplified method of distinguishing different structure were also obtained,which are going to play important roles in the field of cryptology and future worldwide applications.Beyond that,the problem of the most higher-order correlation-immunity of H-Boolean function which is also one of the most difficult unsolved problems in cryptology was solved successfully to improve the anti-attack ability of cryptosystem and ensured the secure transmission of secret information on the network effectively .…”

Exploration and Practice of Pressure Relief by Slotting Coal Seams with a Diamond Wire Saw by Zhu Tang, Shuqing Li, Fei Huang, Shouqing Huang, Kangxu Cai

“…The results show that the wire saw can cut coal seams in a large area, with a cutting efficiency and slotting depth greater than those of hydraulic slotting; a stress concentration zone forms in front of the wire saw coal cutting working face and a stress reduction zone and a stress recovery zone form behind. The pressure relief range varies, increasing at first and then decreasing. …”
