RESH: A Secure Authentication Algorithm Based on Regeneration Encoding Self-Healing Technology in WSN

In the real application environment of wireless sensor networks (WSNs), the uncertain factor of data storage makes the authentication information be easily forged and destroyed by illegal attackers. As a result, it is hard for secure managers to conduct forensics on transmitted information in WSN. This work considers the regeneration encoding self-healing and secret sharing techniques and proposes an effective scheme to authenticate data in WSN. The data is encoded by regeneration codes and then distributed to other redundant nodes in the form of fragments. When the network is attacked, the scheme has the ability against tampering attack or collusion attack. Furthermore, the damaged fragments can be restored as well. Parts of fragments, encoded by regeneration code, are required for secure authentication of the original distributed data. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme reduces hardware communication overhead by five percent in comparison. Additionally, the performance of local recovery achieves ninety percent

THE LOCAL BIOMECHANICAL ANALYSIS OF LOWER LIMB ON COUNTER-MOVEMENT JUMP BETWEEN BAREFOOT AND SHOD PEOPLE WITH DIFFERENT FOOT MORPHOLOGY

The aim of this study was to explore the kinematic variations in knee and ankle joints and the ground reaction force between habitually barefoot (HBM) and shod males (HSM) during countermovement jump. Twenty-eight males (14 HBM,14 HSM) participated in this experiment. An 8-camera Vicon motion system was used to collect the kinematic data of knee and ankle joints from 3 dimensions and the force plate was used to collect the ground reaction force in take-off phase. Results in take-off phase showed that HSM produced two peak forces to take off and showed significantly greater knee ROM in sagittal plane, as well as greater ankle inversion and external rotation. In conclusion, the foot morphological differences can result in the different influence on jump performance. The relevant practioner should pay close attention to the effect of foot morphology on jump in training

Observation of Ultrahigh Mobility Surface States in a Topological Crystalline Insulator by Infrared Spectroscopy

Topological crystalline insulators (TCIs) possess metallic surface states protected by crystalline symmetry, which are a versatile platform for exploring topological phenomena and potential applications. However, progress in this field has been hindered by the challenge to probe optical and transport properties of the surface states owing to the presence of bulk carriers. Here we report infrared (IR) reflectance measurements of a TCI, (001) oriented $Pb_{1-x}Sn_{x}Se$ in zero and high magnetic fields. We demonstrate that the far-IR conductivity is unexpectedly dominated by the surface states as a result of their unique band structure and the consequent small IR penetration depth. Moreover, our experiments yield a surface mobility of 40000 $cm^{2}/(Vs)$, which is one of the highest reported values in topological materials, suggesting the viability of surface-dominated conduction in thin TCI crystals. These findings pave the way for exploring many exotic transport and optical phenomena and applications predicted for TCIs
