    In this paper, we consider the following Emden-Fowler type dynamic equations on time scales \begin{equation*} \big(a(t)|x^\Delta(t)|^\alpha \operatorname{sgn} x^\Delta(t)\big)^\Delta+b(t)|x(t)|^\beta \operatorname{sgn}x(t)=0, \end{equation*} when α<β\alpha<\beta. The classification of the nonoscillatory solutions are investigated and some necessary and sufficient conditions of the existence of oscillatory and nonoscillatory solutions are given by using the Schauder-Tychonoff fixed point theorem. Three possibilities of two classes of double integrals which are not only related to the coefficients of the equation but also linked with the classification of the nonoscillatory solutions and oscillation of solutions are put forward. Moreover, an important property of the intermediate solutions on time scales is indicated. At last, an example is given to illustrate our main results

    Physical Layer Security in Wireless Ad Hoc Networks Under A Hybrid Full-/Half-Duplex Receiver Deployment Strategy

    This paper studies physical layer security in a wireless ad hoc network with numerous legitimate transmitter-receiver pairs and eavesdroppers. A hybrid full-/half-duplex receiver deployment strategy is proposed to secure legitimate transmissions, by letting a fraction of legitimate receivers work in the full-duplex (FD) mode sending jamming signals to confuse eavesdroppers upon their information receptions, and letting the other receivers work in the half-duplex mode just receiving their desired signals. The objective of this paper is to choose properly the fraction of FD receivers for achieving the optimal network security performance. Both accurate expressions and tractable approximations for the connection outage probability and the secrecy outage probability of an arbitrary legitimate link are derived, based on which the area secure link number, network-wide secrecy throughput and network-wide secrecy energy efficiency are optimized respectively. Various insights into the optimal fraction are further developed and its closed-form expressions are also derived under perfect self-interference cancellation or in a dense network. It is concluded that the fraction of FD receivers triggers a non-trivial trade-off between reliability and secrecy, and the proposed strategy can significantly enhance the network security performance.Comment: Journal paper, double-column 12 pages, 9 figures, accepted by IEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, 201

    The SiC particles (SiCp, mass fraction 30 %) reinforced with the Al-Si-Cu-Mg matrix composite have been prepared using one-way press method, sintering, and hot extrusion. The composite was subjected to solid solution treatment at temperatures of 470 °C, 485 °C, 500 °C, 515 °C, and 530 °C for 4 h. The sample was then subjected to ageing treatment at temperatures of 160 °C and 180 °C during different times after solid solution treatment at 515 °C for 4 h. The microstructure and mechanical properties of the SiCp/Al-Si-Cu-Mg matrix composite under the different ageing and solid solution treatments were tested using SEM and TEM microhardness analysis. The results show that the white granulated metallic compounds of the SiCp/Al-Si-Cu-Mg composite materials, which are formed in the sintering process of composite materials, dissolve back after the solid solution treatment at different temperatures. The higher the solid solution temperature, the more metallic compounds dissolve back. The microhardness of the composites reached maximum after solution treatment at 515 °C for 4 h. Following the ageing treatment and with the prolongation of ageing time, the hardness of the composite material reached “double peak” phenomenon. With the increase in ageing temperature, the hardening speed of the composite material also increased, but at the same time, the hardening ability had reduced. After the ageing treatment, the second phases of the composite are discoid Al5Cu6Mg2.

Kompozit je 4 sata bio izložen otapanju u čvrstom stanju pri 470 °C, 485 °C, 500 °C, 515 °C i 530 °C. Nakon toga na uzorak je 4 sata pri 515 °C djelovalo otapanje u čvrstom stanju, a zatim su uzorci starili različito vrijeme pri temperaturama 160 i 180 °C. Mikrostruktura i mehanička svojstva kompozita proučena su tehnikama pretražnom i transmisijskom mikroskopijom te analizom mikrotvrdoće. Pri sinteriranju kompozita SiCp/Al-Si-Cu-Mg nastaje bijeli zrnasti metalni spoj koji se otapa u čvrstu otopinu pri različitim temperaturama. Što je viša temperatura čvrste otopine, više se otopi metalnog spoja. Mikrotvrdoća doseže maksimum pri izlaganju reakcijama u čvrstom stanju pri 515 °C kroz četiri sata. Nakon starenja i s produljenjem starenja tvrdoća materijala pokazuje dvostruki vrh. S povišenjem temperature povećava se brzina očvršćivanja, no istodobno se smanjuje mogućnost očvršćenja. Druga faza kompozita nakon starenja je diskoidni Al5Cu6Mg2. Ovo djelo je dano na korištenje pod licencom Creative Commons Imenovanje 4.0 međunarodna

    An Automatic Wheel Contour Extraction Method 1

    Abstract: Wheel contour extraction from image is an important unit of any vision-based traffic accident analysis system, and automatically doing it is still a difficult task due to various distracting factors such as low contrast between the wheel and the ground, different wheel types and various weather conditions etc. In this work, a new automatic wheel extraction method is proposed, in which rather than directly extracting wheel contours from images, the wheel rim and the contacting image point of wheel to the ground are at first extracted, then the wheel contour is in turn located via the invariance of cross ratio. Extensive experiments under various weather conditions show that our proposed method is capable of detecting wheel contours fully automatically and robustly. Copyright © 2014 IFSA Publishing, S. L

    The ultra-low-frequency shear modes of 2-4 layer graphenes observed in their scroll structures at edges

    Full text link
    The in-plane shear modes between neighbor-layers of 2-4 layer graphenes (LGs) and the corresponding graphene scrolls rolled up by 2-4LGs were investigated by Raman scattering. In contrast to that just one shear mode was observed in 3-4LGs, all the shear modes of 3-4LGs were observed in 3-4 layer scrolls (LSs), whose frequencies agree well with the theoretical predication by both a force-constant model and a linear chain model. In comparison to the broad width (about 12cm1^{-1}) for the G band in graphite, all the shear modes exhibit an intrinsic line width of about 1.0 cm1^{-1}. The local electronic structures dependent on the local staking configurations enhance the intensity of the shear modes in corresponding 2-4LSs zones, which makes it possible to observe all the shear modes. It provides a direct evidence that how the band structures of FLGs can be sensitive to local staking configurations. This result can be extended to n layer graphene (n > 4) for the understanding of the basic phonon properties of multi-layer graphenes. This observation of all-scale shear modes can be foreseen in other 2D materials with similar scroll structures.Comment: 14 pages, 5 figure
