Market Power, NAIRU, and the Phillips Curve by Derek Zweig

“…Emphasis is also placed on Phelps’ and Friedman’s NAIRU theory using both a simplistic functional form and BVAR. We find weak evidence supporting the NAIRU theory from the simplistic model, but stronger evidence using BVAR. …”

UDM:NFV-based prevention mechanism against DDoS attack on SDN controller by Hongyan QIAN, Hao XUE, Ming CHEN

“…DDoS attack extensively existed have been mortal threats for the software-defined networking (SDN) controllers and there is no any security mechanism which can prevent them yet.Combining SDN and network function virtualization (NFV),a novel preventing mechanism against DDoS attacks on SDN controller called upfront detection middlebox (UDM) was proposed.The upfront detection middlebox was deployed between SDN switch interfaces and user hosts distributed,and DDoS attack packets were detected and denied.An NFV-based method of implementing the upfront middlebox was put forward,which made the UDM mechanism be economical and effective.A prototype system based on this mechanism was implemented and lots experiments were tested.The experimental results show that the UDM mechanism based on NFV can real-time and effectively detect and prevent against DDoS attacks on SDN controllers.…”

Numerical Investigation of Pinned Fuse with Simple Replacing in Steel Eccentrically Braced Frames and Design Parameters Determination by Soroush Soltani, Mohammad Javaheri-tafti, Mohamad Vetr

“…In this study, the proposed fuse element consists of a number of steel sheets that connect the link beam to out-of-link beam through a complete joint connection, in the form of groove and tongue by pin. When cyclic loads (compressive and tensile) are applied to the eccentric frame, the fuse causes the concentration of force in the beam by showing shear behavior and thus dissipates the force of the earthquake. …”

Stability of Reinforced Concrete Columns Subjected to Compression with Torsion under Accidental Action by V. I. Kolchunov, S. Yu. Savin, M. A. Amelina

“…For the reinforced concrete elements considered in the study, the stability region boundaries for the combined action of the axial compressive force and torque are plotted. It is shown that at combined loading by axial force and torque for small values of axial force N one should expect failure due to loss of strength of sections under the action of torque Mt. …”

Mechanical Properties of Phenolic Composites Reinforced with Flax-g-copolymers Prepared under Different Reaction Conditions - A Comparative Study by Susheel Kalia, B. S. Kaith

“…Synthesized flax-g-copolymers under two different reaction conditions were used as reinforcing material in the preparation of phenol-formaldehyde composites. Mechanical properties such as wear resistance, modulus of rupture (MOR), modulus of elasticity (MOE) and stress at the limit of proportionality (SP) were measured and a comparative studied has been made. …”

A novel numerical solution of nonlinear stochastic model for the propagation of malicious codes in Wireless Sensor Networks using a high order spectral collocation technique by Junjie Zhu, Misbah Ullah, Saif Ullah, Muhammad Bilal Riaz, Abdul Baseer Saqib, Atif M. Alamri, Salman A. AlQahtani

“…However, due to the inherent randomness and uncertainty present in WSNs, stochastic modeling approach is essential for a comprehensive understanding of the propagation of malicious codes in WSNs. In this paper, we formulate a general stochastic compartmental model for analyzing the dynamics of malicious code distribution in WSNs and suggest its possible control. …”

Study on the Operating Performance of Gear System based on Size Effect by Zhang Guozhi

“…With micro-plastic-mechanics theory and FEM（ finite element method）,the performance of a pair of micro gears mechanism is studied.The elastic-plastic finite element computation format based on the size effect is established and put into effect with UPFs（ User-programmable features） in ANSYS.This computation format is verified through comparing the micro-indention experiment of the polycrystalline copper with the computation results with FEM.Considering the size effect of the micro asperity,the influence of the micro geometric features（ burrs and roughness） in the manufacturing errors of gears on the performance of this mechanism is studied with substructure FEM with computation program.The basis is supported for the mechanical trace failure analysis of gear mechanism through the study and the computation efficiency and the accuracy of the simulation is improved.…”
