Since many types of researches held on QoSensing improvement in terms of coverage and connectivity enhancement. In a WSN with a density of 120 static and 30 mobile nodes, the major power-consuming activities are mobility and communication. Such power constraint has a great effect on the node activities and the same network. We analyzed the occurrence of coverage holes which is, regions inside the area of interest that are void of operational nodes for sensing and/or routing purposes. 4TQS method shows clustering phase through neuro-fuzzy based affinity propagation NFAP, sleep scheduling phase with ESLS algorithm and the assist of coverage enhancement phase in which HAHP is involved. Routing phase and connectivity metrics are improved with DTMR algorithm. Involvement of four efficient algorithms results in improved QoSensing in WSN. We analyzed our proposed method in both Star and Mesh topology in order to evaluate the QoSensing metrics in both topologies. Our method shows promising results in QoSensing metrics or performance in dynamics WSNs.展开更多

Such heterogeneity has traditionally complicated their management and the availability of accurate data on fishing effort and incomes. This study identifies and characterizes the métiers currently used by an artisanal fishing fleet based in a coastal Atlantic region in South-Europe (Asturias, Northwest Spain), by applying an integrated method of analysis which combines administrative data on fishing licenses, daily sales statistics and information from surveys. As a result, 21 artisanal fishing métiers have been identified, with special relevance of the trammel net (targeting Lophius spp.), the Merluccius longline and the Merluccius gillnet métiers. Spatio-temporal patterns of fishing effort have been also described, and outputs and inputs demands per métier have been quantified. It has been also found a high degree of alternation between different métiers during the fishing season and significant differences in terms of technical aspects and workforce. Finally, fishermen’s short- and long-term strategies (métier choice) are discussed, different comparisons are made on the basis of other South-European studies and main findings are linked to artisanal fisheries management.展开更多

Raw materials used were prepared and tested. Varies of asphalt concrete mixtures were prepared with different ratios of bitumen （5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7% % of concrete weight）. The Marshall mix design method was used to determine optimum conditions for bitumen in asphalt concrete with specific weight, stability and flow Test, the optimum amount of bitumen was 6.1% of whole asphalt concrete. The different percentages of waste tire rubber powder （0.0, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15% of bitumen weight） were added in optimum bitumen of asphalt concretes, then specific weight and Marshall test were evaluated. These asphalt-rubber mixtures were found to act quite differently from traditional, unmodified asphalt mixtures. However, these results indicate that improved pavement performance can be achieved with asphalt-rubber binder.展开更多
