Trusted routing based on D-S evidence theory in wireless mesh network by YANG Kai, MA Jian-feng, YANG Chao

“…Combined with Dempster-Shafer（D-S） evidence theory,a trust evaluation model was given,meanwhile,a trusted routing——T-AODV was also proposed which built trusted routings according to the trustworthiness of nodes calculated by the proposed trust evaluation model.Simulation results show that the proposed scheme can detect and isolate malicious nodes efficiently and resist attacks to some extent and improve the reliability,robustness and security of the over all network effectively.…”

FINITE ELEMENT SIMULATION AND STRUCTURE OPTIMIZATION OF THE AGITATING MECHANISM OF DOUBLE SHAFT VIBRATING MIXER by ZHAO Wu, YUE Chao, SHEN WeiWei

“…Analyze the force of the agitating mechanism of double shaft vibrating mixer under different working conditions.Combined with the finite element software analysis,the stress,strain and modal shape of the agitating mechanism is obtained.At the same time,the strain pattern is compared with the actual deformation zone to verify the rationality of the finite element analysis.An optimization scheme is proposed aiming at improving the stiffness.After the simulation analysis,the stiffness of the optimized agitating mechanism is obviously enhanced to meet the work requirements.Meanwhile,the strength and natural frequency of the mechanism have also improved.It has an important significance for reducing safety incidents.At the same time,it also lays a theoretical foundation for vertical shaft vibration mixing technology.…”
