The results show that: (1)the permeability ratio (K*=Ky/Kx) is an important factor affecting natural convection heat transfer in the porous media. As K' decreases, the circulation intensity of the natural convectioncells increase significantly, resulting in an enhancement of heat transfer coefficient; (2)the increase of Darcy number (aa=Ky/H2) implies that the viscous effect is more significant. As Da≥10-, there exists a certain difference between the Darcy model and the Brinkman model. It is more significant at a lower permeability ratio. In particalar, with K*≤0. 25, the Nusselt number for Da=10-3 would differ form that of Darcy model up to an amount of 30K. The Darcy flow as depicted by Darcy model is no longer existing and an analysis neglecting the viscous effect will inevitably be of considerable error.展开更多

We have found that they are in satisfactory agreement with Benford＇s law, which states that the frequency of occurrence of each figure, 1-9, as the first significant digit in a surprisingly large number of different data sets follows a logarithmic distribution favoring the smaller ones. Benford＇s logarithmic distribution of β-deeay half-lives can be explained in terms of Neweomb＇s justification of Benford＇s law and empirical exponential law of β-decay half-lives. Moreover, we test the calculated values of 6721 β-decay half-lives with the aid of Benford＇s law. This indicates that Benford＇s law is useful for theoretical physicists to test their methods for calculating β-decay half-lives.展开更多

Of many results published, all were achieved on 3-stage Clos network. The monotone routing algorithm proposed by Hu et al.(2001) was also first applied to 3-stage Clos network. In this work, we adopt this algorithm and apply it to logd(N,m,p) networks. We first analyze the properties of logd(N,m,p) networks. Then we use monotone algorithm in logd(N,0,p) network. Furthermore we extend the result to construct multirate rearrangeable networks based on logd(N,m,p) network (1≤m≤n?1).展开更多

A robust-layer-resolving numerical method is proposed. An e-uniform global error estimate for the numerical solution and also to the numerical derivative are established. Numerical results are presented, which are in agreement with the theoretical predictions.展开更多

In the course of backward calculation of the two-dimensional convection & diffusion equation, on the one hand, the advection term itself has the strong unilateral property, which means information in the upper reaches is transmitted downstream via the advection term; on the other hand, because of the opposite direction of calculation, it is essential for information to be conveyed upstream by means of the advection term. In addition, unlike that in the forward calculation, the diffusion term in the backward calculation is prone to accumulate errors, and thus renders the whole scheme unstable. Therefore, we adopt the central difference to deal with both the convectional term and the diffusion term. By examining two practical examples (1) under the unlimited boundary condition, and (2) under the limited boundary condition, it is proven that this method could achieve fundamentally satisfactory results not only in the open ocean but also in the closed or semi-closed bay.展开更多

Then on the basis of the extended symmetry, we can establish relation among some different kinds of vcKP equations. Thus the exact solutions of these veKP equations can be constructed via the simple veKP equations or constant-coefficient KP equations.展开更多

To prevent corrupted and faked contents be spread in the network,NDN routers should verify the digital signature of each published content. Since the verification scheme in NDN applies the asymmetric encryption algorithm to sign contents,the content verification overhead is too high to satisfy wire-speed packet forwarding. In this paper, we propose two schemes to improve the verification performance of NDN routers to prevent content poisoning. The first content verification scheme, called "user-assisted",leads to the best performance, but can be bypassed if the clients and the content producer collude. A second scheme, named ``RouterCooperation ‘', prevents the aforementioned collusion attack by making edge routers verify the contents independently without the assistance of users and the core routers no longer verify the contents. The Router-Cooperation verification scheme reduces the computing complexity of cryptographic operation by replacing the asymmetric encryption algorithm with symmetric encryption algorithm.The simulation results demonstrate that this Router-Cooperation scheme can speed up18.85 times of the original content verification scheme with merely extra 80 Bytes transmission overhead.展开更多
