Experimental investigations of colloid-associated metal mobility in mine-impacted wetland sediment by Colleen O. Harper, Richard T. Amos

“…Results indicate that colloid-facilitated transport is only important when small (<0.01 μm) colloids, most likely formed from organic matter, are present. Larger particles were found to be generally immobile, so could aid in the immobilization of metal contaminants. …”

Survey on network system security metrics by Chensi WU, Weiqiang XIE, Yixiao JI, Su YANG, Ziyi JIA, Song ZHAO, Yuqing ZHANG

“…With the improvement for comprehensive and objective understanding of the network system,the research and application of network system security metrics (NSSM) are noticed more.The quantitative evaluation of network system security is developing towards precision and objectification.NSSM can provide the objective and scientific basis for the confrontation of attack-defense and decision of emergency response.The global metrics of network system security is a crucial point in the field of security metrics.From the perspective of global metrics,the status and role of global metrics in security evaluation were pointed out.Three development stages of metrics (perceiving,cognizing and deepening) and their characteristics were analyzed and summarized.The process of global metrics was described.The metrics models,metrics systems and metrics tools were analyzed,and their functions,interrelations,and features in security metrics were pointed out.Then the technical challenges of global metrics of network systems were explained in detail,and ten opportunities and challenges were summarized in tabular form.Finally,the next direction and development trend of network system security metrics research were forecasted.The survey shows that NSSM has a good application prospect in network security.…”

Study on the Effects of Aluminum and Chromium on the Corrosion Resistance of Hot-Rolled Incoloy 800H Alloy in Molten Carbonate Salts by CAO Junjia, YU Haicun, GAO Yunteng, LI Haixiao, LI Yafeng, XU Shipeng, LA Peiqing

“…Metal alloys are subjected to molten salt corrosion in concentrating solar thermal power systems， leading to a reduction in their lifetime.In order to extend the service life of Incoloy 800H alloy in molten carbonate salt corrosion， Incoloy 800H alloys with varying aluminum(Al) and chromium (Cr) contents were prepared by vacuum induction melting.The corrosion mechanisms of Al and Cr elements on the resistance of 800H alloy to molten carbonate salt corrosion were investigated through analysis and testing methods such as X-ray diffraction (XRD)，scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM).Results showed that the corrosion rate of Incoloy 800H alloy with 3%(mass fraction， the same below) Al content was 1 071.00 μm/a， while that with 2.75%Cr content was 359.56 μm/a after immersion in carbonate molten salt (32.1%Li2CO3＋33.4%Na2CO3＋34.5%K2CO3) at 650 ℃for 240 h.The corrosion products were mainly LiFeO2&#x00A0;and NiO.This was attributed to the fact that as the Al content increased， the oxide passivation film formed on the surface of the alloy became thicker and denser， providing better protection.The reduction of Cr content led to a decrease in the generation of soluble Cr oxides， an increase in the formation of other protective oxides， and a reduction in the precipitation of Fe elements in the substrate， thus improving the alloy’s corrosion resistance.…”

Research on intelligent modeling and policy making of CNC brain by Jun ZHOU, Keqing LIU, Shikui WANG, Ling YANG

“…As a future-oriented new network architecture, the core idea of computing and network convergence is to manage cloud-edge-end computing network resources in a centralized or distributed way by centering on the deep integration of computing force and network resources, so as to provide computing service for users’ needs.Although the CNC has made some progress in standard setting and industrial promotion, the overall development still faces many challenges, and there are still many scientific and engineering problems to be broken through.Research on CNC and its brain was carried out, the latest progress in related fields in the industry was analyzed, and the idea of building intelligent CNC brain was put forward, hoping to throw a brick at the table, jointly promote the implementation of AI in CNC, and truly realize intelligent CNC.…”

Invisible Theatre: militarized space and the staging of affective atmospheres by Leah Lovett

“…Drawing on original archival and performance-based research, I advance a critical account of Restaurant Theatre: The Law through a narrative reimagining of the performance and key evidence concerning the law in question that fundamentally challenges Boal’s claims for the technique as a means of social liberation from forces of oppression. The alternative possibility explored here is that Invisible Theatre developed in Boal’s practice as an atmospheric reaction to militaristic forms of urban encounter and a means with which to infiltrate structural feelings of fear. …”
