Temporal-spatial Variations of Dynamic Source Parameters in the Capital Circle Region and Its Surrounding Areas before the 2006 M_S5.1 Wenan Earthquake in Hebei Province

Source spectra,corner frequency and zero frequency amplitudes in near-source conditions were measured using waveform data from 989 earthquakes with magnitudes larger than ML2.0 observed by the Beijing Digital Telemetry Seismic Network in the Capital Circle Region of China and its surrounding areas from January 2002 to June 2006 by the Brune model.Relevant formulas that were used for the calculation of dynamic source parameters include rupture radius,seismic moment,seismic energy,stress drop,and apparent stress.Scaling relations and characteristics of temporal-spatial variations of these dynamic parameters before the MS5.1 Wenan earthquake in Hebei Province that occurred on July 20,2006 were analyzed.Results show that apparent stress,stress drop,and the ratio of seismic energy to the rupture radius had relatively high values in some areas before the Wenan earthquake.These high-value concentration areas were mainly distributed in the North China Plain seismic zone.As is seen from the time curves,parameters,such as apparent stress,stress drop,and ratio of seismic energy to rupture radius underwent significant ascending processes before the Wenan earthquake,but the variation in the corner frequency showed a descending trend.This result might be related to the enhancement of stress in the North China Plain seismic zone before the earthquake.

Fuzzy Logic QoS Dynamic Source Routing for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

Considering the characters of dynamic topology and the imprecise state information in mobile ad hoc network,we propose a Fuzzy Logic QoS Dynamic Source Routing(FLQDSR)algorithm based on Dynamic Source Routing(DSR)protocol while adopting fuzzy logic to select the appropriate QoS routing in multiple paths which are searched in parallel.This scheme considers not only the bandwidth and end-to-end delay of routing,but also the cost of the path.On the otherhand the merit of using fuzzy logic is that it can be implemented by hardware.This makes the realization of the schemeeasier and faster.However our algorithm is based on DSR,the maximal hop count should be less than 10,i.e.,the scaleof mobile ad hoc network should not be very large.Simulation results show that FLQDSR can tolerate a high degree of in-formation imprecision by adding the fuzzy logic module which integrates the QoS requirements of application and the rout-ing QoS parameters to determine the most qualified one in every node.

Investigation on automated loading of dynamic 3D heat source model for welding simulation

Since programing complex and dynamic heat source model for welding simulation is a complex job,the parametric methods are studied in this paper.Firstly,an overall flow to achieve automatically modeling welding was introduced.Secondly,an expert module rule for selecting welding heat source model was founded,which is based on simulation knowledge and experiences.Thirdly,a modularity routine method was investigated using writing with C++programing,which automatically creates subroutines of 3D dynamic heat source model for user.To realize the dynamic weld path,the local weld path coordinate system was moved in the global coordinate system and it is used to model the direction of weld gun,welding path and welding pose.The weld path data file was prepared by the automatic tool for the welding heat source subroutines.All above functions were integrated in the user interface and the connection with architecture was introduced.At last,a laser beam welding heat source modeling was automatically modeled and the weld pool geometry was compared with the reported literature.It demonstrated that the automated tool is valid for welding simulation.Since modeling became convenient for welding simulation using the tool proposed,it could be easy and useful for welding engineers to acquire the needed information.

Numerical simulation research on response characteristics of surrounding rock for deep super-large section chamber under dynamic and static combined loading condition

The stability control of surrounding rock for large or super-large section chamber is a difficult technical problem in deep mining condition.Based on the in-site geological conditions of Longgu coal mine,this paper used the dynamic module of FLAC3D to study the response characteristics of deep super-large section chamber under dynamic and static combined loading condition.Results showed that under the static loading condition,the maximum vertical stress,deformation and failure range are large,where the stress concentration coefficient is 1.64.The maximum roof-to-floor and two-sides deformations are 54.6 mm and 53.1 mm,respectively.Then,under the dynamic and static combined loading condition:(1)The influence of dynamic load frequency on the two-sides is more obvious;(2)The dynamic load amplitude has the greatest influence on the stress concentration degree,and the plastic failure tends to develop to the deeper;(3)With the dynamic load source distance increase,the response of surrounding rock is gradually attenuated.On this basis,empirical equations for each dynamic load conditions were obtained by using regression analysis method,and all correlation coefficients are greater than 0.99.This research provided reference for the supporting design of deep super-large section chamber under same or similar conditions.

Analysis of the role of branching angle in the dynamic rupture process on a 3-D branching fault system

The fault branching phenomenon,which may heavily influence the patterns of rupture propagation in fault systems,is one of the geometric complexities of fault systems that is widely observed in nature.In this study,we investigate the effect of the branching angle on the rupture inclination and the interaction between branch planes in two-fork branching fault systems by numerical simulation and theoretical analysis based on Mohr’s circle.A friction law dependent on normal stress is used,and special attention is paid to studying how ruptures on the upper and lower branch planes affect the stress and rupture on each other separately.The results show that the two branch planes affect each other in different patterns and that the intensity of the effect changes with the branching angle.The rupture of the lower branch plane has a negative effect on the rupture of the upper branch plane in the case of a small branching angle but has almost no negative effect in the case of a large branching angle.The rupture of the upper branch plane,however,suppresses the rupture of the lower branch plane regardless of whether the branching angle is large or small.

Boundary integral equations for dynamic rupture propagation on vertical complex fault system in half-space:Theory

The boundary integral equation method （BIEM） is now widely used in numerical studies on earthquake rupture dynamics, and is proved to be a powerful tool to deal with problems on complex fault system. However, since this method heavily lies on the specific forms of Green＇s function and only the Green＇s function in full-space has a closed analytic expression, it is usually limited to a full-space medium. In this study, as a first step to extend this method to an arbitrary complex fault system in half-space, the boundary integral equations （BIEs） for dynamic strike-slip on vertical complex fault system in half-space are derived based on exact Green＇s function for isotropic and homogeneous half-space. Effect of the geometry of the complex fault system are dealt with carefully. Final BIEs is composed of two parts： contribution from full-space, which has been thoroughly investigated by Aochi and his co-workers by using the Green＇s function for full-space, and that from free surface, which is studied in detail in this study.

An Improved Multi-Objective Particle Swarm Optimization Routing on MANET

A Mobile Ad hoc Network(MANET)is a group of low-power con-sumption of wireless mobile nodes that configure a wireless network without the assistance of any existing infrastructure/centralized organization.The primary aim of MANETs is to extendflexibility into the self-directed,mobile,and wireless domain,in which a cluster of autonomous nodes forms a MANET routing system.An Intrusion Detection System(IDS)is a tool that examines a network for mal-icious behavior/policy violations.A network monitoring system is often used to report/gather any suspicious attacks/violations.An IDS is a software program or hardware system that monitors network/security traffic for malicious attacks,sending out alerts whenever it detects malicious nodes.The impact of Dynamic Source Routing(DSR)in MANETs challenging blackhole attack is investigated in this research article.The Cluster Trust Adaptive Acknowledgement(CTAA)method is used to identify unauthorised and malfunctioning nodes in a MANET environment.MANET system is active and provides successful delivery of a data packet,which implements Kalman Filters(KF)to anticipate node trustworthiness.Furthermore,KF is used to eliminate synchronisation errors that arise during the sending and receiving data.In order to provide an energy-efficient solution and to minimize network traffic,route optimization in MANET by using Multi-Objective Particle Swarm Optimization(MOPSO)technique to determine the optimal num-ber of clustered MANET along with energy dissipation in nodes.According to the researchfindings,the proposed CTAA-MPSO achieves a Packet Delivery Ratio(PDR)of 3.3%.In MANET,the PDR of CTAA-MPSO improves CTAA-PSO by 3.5%at 30%malware.

Energy Based Random Repeat Trust Computation in Delay Tolerant Network

As the use of mobile devices continues to rise,trust administration will significantly improve security in routing the guaranteed quality of service(QoS)supply in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks(MANET)due to the mobility of the nodes.There is no continuance of network communication between nodes in a delay-tolerant network(DTN).DTN is designed to complete recurring connections between nodes.This approach proposes a dynamic source routing protocol(DSR)based on a feed-forward neural network(FFNN)and energybased random repetition trust calculation in DTN.If another node is looking for a node that swerved off of its path in this situation,routing will fail since it won’t recognize it.However,in the suggested strategy,nodes do not stray from their pathways for routing.It is only likely that the message will reach the destination node if the nodes encounter their destination or an appropriate transitional node on their default mobility route,based on their pattern of mobility.The EBRRTC-DTN algorithm(Energy based random repeat trust computation)is based on the time that has passed since nodes last encountered the destination node.Compared to other existing techniques,simulation results show that this process makes the best decision and expertly determines the best and most appropriate route to send messages to the destination node,which improves routing performance,increases the number of delivered messages,and decreases delivery delay.Therefore,the suggested method is better at providing better QoS(Quality of Service)and increasing network lifetime,tolerating network system latency.

Least-squares reverse time migration in visco-acoustic media based on symplectic stereo-modeling method

The authors proposed a symplectic stereo-modeling method(SSM)in the Birkhoffian dynam-ics and apply it to the visco-acoustic least-squares reverse time migration(LSRTM).The SSM adopts ste-reo-modeling operator in space and symplectic Runge-Kutta scheme in time,resulting in great ability in suppressing numerical dispersion and long-time computing.These advantages are further confirmed by numerical dispersion analysis,long-time computation test and computational efficiency comparison.After these theoretical analyses and experiments,acoustic and visco-acoustic LSRTM are tested and compared between SSM method and the conventional symplectic method(CSM)using the fault and marmousi models.Meanwhile,dynamic source encoding and exponential decay moving average gradients method are adopted to reduce the computation cost and improve the convergence rate.The imaging results show that LSRTM based on visco-acoustic wave equations effectively takes into account the influence of viscosity can therefore compensate for the amplitude attenuation.Besides,SSM method not only has high numerical accuracy and computational efficiency,but also performs effectively in LSRTM.

Optically pumped wavelength-tunable lasing from a GaN beam cavity with an integrated Joule heater pivoted on Si

Dynamically tunable laser sources are highly promising for realizing visionary concepts of integrated photonic circuits and other applications. In this paper, a Ga N-based laser with an integrated PN junction heater on Si is fabricated.The photoluminescence properties of the Ga N beam cavity are controlled by temperature, and the Joule heater provides electrically driven regulation of temperature. These two features of the cavity make it possible to realize convenient tuning of the lasing properties. The multi-functional Ga N beam cavity achieves optically pumped lasing with a single mode near 362.4 nm with a high Q-factor of 1394. The temperature of this device increases by 0–5℃ under the Joule heating effect. Then, electrical control of the lasing mode is demonstrated. The lasing resonant peak shows a continuous redshift of about 0.5 nm and the device also exhibits dynamic switching of its lasing mode. The lasing modulation can be ascribed to temperature-induced reduction of the bandgap. Our work may be of benefit for external optical modulation in future chip-based optoelectronic devices.

Modeling Delay and Packet Drop in Networked Control Systems Using Network Simulator NS2

Wireless Networked Control Systems (WNCS) are used to implement a control mechanism over a wireless network that is capable of carrying real-time traffic. This field has drawn enormous attention from current researchers because of its flexibility and robustness. However, designing efficient WNCS over Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANET) is still a challenging topic because of its less-predictable aspects, such as inconsistent delay, packet drop probability, and dynamic topology. This paper presents design guidelines for WNCS over MANET using the Network Simulator version 2, NS2 software. It investigates the impact of packet delay and packet drop under the AODV and DSR routing protocols. The simulation results have been compared to MATLAB results for validation.

Packet Drop Battling Mechanism for Energy Aware Detection in Wireless Networks

Network security and energy consumption are deemed to be two important components of wireless and mobile ad hoc networks(WMANets).There are various routing attacks which harm Ad Hoc networks.This is because of the unsecure wireless communication,resource constrained capabilities and dynamic topology.In order to cope with these issues,Ad Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector(AODV)routing protocol can be used to remain the normal networks functionality and to adjust data transmission by defending the networks against black hole attacks.The proposed system,in this work,identifies the optimal route from sender to collector,prioritizing the number of jumps,the battery life,and security,which are fundamental prerequisites.Researches have proposed various plans for detecting the shortest route,as well as ensuring energy conversions and defense against threats and attacks.In this regard,the packet drop attack is one of the most destructive attack against WMANet communication and hence merits special attention.This type of attack may allow the attacker to take control of the attacked hubs,which may lost packets or transmitted information via a wrong route during the packets journey from a source hub to a target one.Hence,a new routing protocol method has been proposed in this study.It applies the concept of energy saving systems to conserve energy that is not required by the system.The proposed method for energy aware detection and prevention of packet drop attacks in mobile ad hoc networks is termed the Ad Hoc On-Demand and Distance Vector–Packet Drop Battling Mechanism(AODV–PDBM).

POWER-AWARE ROUTING BASED ON DSR FOR MOBILE AD HOC NETWORKS

Energy consumption is a crucial design concern in Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANETs) since nodes are powered by batteries with limited energy, whereas Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) protocol does not take the energy limitation of MANET nodes into account. This paper proposes an energy-saving routing algorithm based on DSR: Power Aware Routing protocol based on DSR (PAR-DSR). The design objective of PAR-DSR is to select energy-efficient paths. The main features of PAR-DSR are: (1) Nodes use the Signal Attenuation Rate (SAR) to conduct power control operations; (2) Minimum path cost as metric to balance the traffic and energy consumption of wireless nodes. The simulation results show that PAR-DSR can greatly reduce the energy consumption of MANET nodes. The average node lifetime of PAR-DSR is 50%-77% longer than that of DSR.

DSR-Based Selective Repeat ARQ Protocol in MANET

The efficient route algorithms involved in mobile ad hoc network(MANET) are studied. An arrangement of a combination of the traditional dynamic source routing(DSR) protocol is put forward and the selective repeat ARQ protocol is put forward by analyzing and studying them in detail and providing the scheme. In networks, especially in wireless networks, the nodes are capable to process data much faster than transmission, the DSR-based selective repeat ARQ protocol has real meanings in MANET.

Average flooding distance for MANETs in random graph models with spatial reuse

The flooding distance is an important parameter in the design and evaluation of a routing protocol, which is related not only to the delay time in the route discovery, but also to the stability and reliability of the route. In this paper, the average flooding distance （AFD） for a mobile ad hoc network （MANET） in a random graph model was given based on the dynamic source routing （DSR） protocol. The influence of spatial reuse on the AFD was also studied. Compared with that in the model without the spatial reuse, the AFD in the model with the spatial reuse has much smaller value, when the connetivity probability between nodes in the network is small and when the number of reused times is large. This means that the route discovery with the spatial reuse is much more effective.

Deep Learning Convolutional Neural Network for ECG Signal Classification Aggregated Using IoT

Much attention has been given to the Internet of Things (IoT) by citizens, industries, governments, and universities for applications like smart buildings, environmental monitoring, health care and so on. With IoT, networkconnectivity is facilitated between smart devices from anyplace and anytime.IoT-based health monitoring systems are gaining popularity and acceptance forcontinuous monitoring and detect health abnormalities from the data collected.Electrocardiographic (ECG) signals are widely used for heart diseases detection.A novel method has been proposed in this work for ECG monitoring using IoTtechniques. In this work, a two-stage approach is employed. In the first stage, arouting protocol based on Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) and Routing byEnergy and Link quality (REL) for IoT healthcare platform is proposed for effi-cient data collection, and in the second stage, classification of ECG for Arrhythmia. Furthermore, this work has evaluated Support Vector Machine (SVM),Artificial Neural Network (ANN), and Convolution Neural Networks (CNNs)-based approach for ECG signals classification. Deep-ECG will use a deep CNNto extract critical features and then compare through evaluation of simple and fastdistance functions in order to obtain an efficient classification of heart abnormalities. For the identification of abnormal data, this work has proposed techniquesfor the classification of ECG data, which has been obtained from mobile watchusers. For experimental verification of the proposed methods, the Beth Israel Hospital (MIT/BIH) Arrhythmia and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)Database was used for evaluation. Results confirm the presented method’s superior performance with regards to the accuracy of classification. The CNN achievedan accuracy of 91.92% and has a higher accuracy of 4.98% for the SVM and2.68% for the ANN.

A Secure and Pragmatic Routing Protocol for Mobile Ad hoc Networks

An ad hoc network is a group of wireless mobile computers(or nodes),in which individual nodes cooperate by forwarding packets for each other to allow nodes to communicate beyond direct wireless transmission range.Because of node mobility and power limitations,the network topology changes frequently.Routing protocol plays an important role in the ad hoc network.A recent trend in ad hoc network routing is the reactive on-demand philosophy where routes are established only when required.As an optimization for the current Dynamic Source Routing Protocol,a secure and pragmatic routes selection scheme based on Reputation Systems was proposed.We design the Secure and Pragmatic Routing protocol and implement simulation models using GloMoSim.Simulation results show that the Secure and Pragmatic Routing protocol provides better experimental results on packet delivery ratio,power consumption and system throughput than Dynamic Source Routing Protocol.

Equivalent formulae of stress Green's functions for a constant slip rate on a triangular fault

We present an equivalent form of the expres- sions first obtained by Tada （Geophys J Int 164：653-669, 2006. doi： 10.1111/j. 1365-246X.2006.03868.x）, which rep- resents the transient stress response of an infinite, homo- geneous and isotropic medium to a constant slip rate on a triangular fault that continues perpetually after the slip onset. Our results are simpler than Tada＇s, and the corre- sponding codes have a higher running speed.
