Dynamical Framework of IAP Nine-Level Atmospheric General Circulation Model

The dynamical framework of the nine-level version of the IAP AGCM is presented in this paper. The emphasis of the model's description is put on the following two aspects:(1) A model's standard atmosphere, which is a satisfactory approximation to the observed troposphere and lower stratosphere standard atmosphere, is introduced into the equations of the model to permit a more accurate calculation of the vertical transport terms, especially near the tropopause; (2) The vertical levels of the model are carefully selected to guarantee a smooth dependence of layer thickness upon pressure in order to reduce the truncation error involved in the unequal interval vertical finite-differencing. For testing the model, two kinds of linear baroclinic Rossby-Haurwitz waves, one of which has a dynamically stable vertical structure and the other has a relatively unstable one, are constructed to provide initial conditions for numerical experiments. The two waves have been integrated for more than 300 days and 100 days respectively by using the model and both of them are propagating westward with almost identical phase-speed during the time period of the integrations. No obvious change of the wave patterns is found at the levels in the model's troposphere. The amplitudes of both two waves at the uppermost level, however, exhibit rather significant oscillation with time, of which the periods are exactly 20 days and 25 days espectively.The explanation of this interesting phenomena is still under investigation.

A General Framework of Reversible Data Hiding with Controlled Contrast Enhancement

This paper proposes a two-step general framework for reversible data hiding(RDH)schemes with controllable contrast enhancement.The first step aims at preserving visual perception as much as possible on the basis of achieving high embedding capacity(EC),while the second step is used for increasing image contrast.In the second step,some peak-pairs are utilized so that the histogram of pixel values is modified to perform histogram equalization(HE),which would lead to the image contrast enhancement.However,for HE,the utilization of some peak-pairs easily leads to over-enhanced image contrast when a large number of bits are embedded.Therefore,in our proposed framework,contrast over-enhancement is avoided by controlling the degree of contrast enhancement.Since the second step can only provide a small amount of data due to controlled contrast enhancement,the first one helps to achieve a large amount of data without degrading visual quality.Any RDH method which can achieve high EC while preserve good visual quality,can be selected for the first step.In fact,Gao et al.’s method is a special case of our proposed framework.In addition,two simple and commonly-used RDH methods are also introduced to further demonstrate the generalization of our framework.

Message Service System Evolution and General Frameworks

With the development of message service in telecom networks as well as the Internet,multiple message service formats have been emerging,including Short Message Service (SMS),Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS),Mobile Email Message (MEM) and Instant Message (IM).Based on the latest research achievements of OMA CPM Organization and GSMA RCS Organization,the message service evolution may have two phases:Integration and convergence,with corresponding overall framework realization methods.

A general framework for describing photofission observables of actinides at an average excitation energy below 30 MeV

A reasonable prediction of photofission observables plays a paramount role in understanding the photofission process and guiding various photofission-induced applications,such as short-lived isotope production,nuclear waste disposal,and nuclear safeguards.However,the available experimental data for photofission observables are limited,and the existing models and programs have mainly been developed for neutron-induced fission processes.In this study,a general framework is proposed for characterizing the photofission observables of actinides,including the mass yield distributions(MYD) and isobaric charge distributions(ICD) of fission fragments and the multiplicity and energy distributions of prompt neutrons(n_(p)) and prompt γ rays(γ_(p)).The framework encompasses various systematic neutron models and empirical models considering the Bohr hypothesis and does not rely on the experimental data as input.These models are then validated individually against experimental data at an average excitation energy below 30 MeV,which shows the reliability and robustness of the general framework.Finally,we employ this framework to predict the characteristics of photofission fragments and the emissions of prompt particles for typical actinides including ^(232)Th,^(235,238)U and ^(240)Pu.It is found that the ^(238)U(γ,f) reaction is more suitable for producing neutron-rich nuclei compared to the ^(232)Th(γ,f) reaction.In addition,the average multiplicity number of both n_(p) and yp increases with the average excitation energy.
