Analysis of security extension protocol in e-mail system by Jingjing SHANG, Yujia ZHU, Qingyun LIU

“…E-mail is the main entry point for hackers to launch network attacks.Impersonating a trusted entity is an important means of e-mail forged.An attribute graph based on the e-mail authentication mechanism was built to measure the global adoption rate of e-mail security extension protocols for government agencies.Research on the deployment effect of security extension protocol was from three dimensions:e-mail content phishing,domain phishing,and letterhead phishing.The results show that about 70% of the SPF protocols are deployed in the mail systems of government agencies in various countries,and less than 30% of the DMARC protocol is deployed.The adoption rate of email identity detection is low.When forged e-mail gets in,the e-mail providers' warning mechanism for counterfeit emails need to be improved.…”

New Insights Into the Reservoir Landslide Deformation Mechanism From InSAR and Numerical Simulation Technology by Guoshi Liu, Bin Wang, Qian Sun, Jun Hu, Lei-Lei Liu, Wanji Zheng, Liye Zou

“…The numerical simulation results aid in interpreting the deformation mechanism of different spatial and temporal patterns of landslides from three aspects: hydrodynamic pressure from rainfall infiltration, groundwater hysteresis caused by RWL drop, and seepage forces from RWL rise. Furthermore, our findings reveal that the dynamic factor of safety (FOS) of landslide during the InSAR observation period is highly consistent with the periodic fluctuations of the RWL. …”

Influence of meshing phase difference on the static load sharing characteristics of the coaxial double-output cylindrical gear split-combined-torsion transmission by HAN Ning, ZHU Rupeng, CHEN Weifang

“…Based on this, combined with the force balance conditions and deformation coordination conditions of the transmission configuration, the influence of the meshing phase difference between the gear pairs on the static load sharing characteristics of the transmission system was studied.ResultsThe results show that the greater the meshing phase difference between the gear pairs is, the worse the static load sharing performance will be; the influence of the combined stage phase difference on the load sharing performance is greater than that of the split torsion stage; for the same stage gear pair, the influence of the phase difference of the right input branch of the inner output shaft branch on the load sharing coefficient is greater than that of the left input branch, and the influence of the phase difference of the left input branch of the external output shaft branch on the load sharing coefficient is greater than that of the right input branch.…”
