Abstract: Mechanical analysis of cylinders being upset between spherical concave platen and
concave supporting plate is conducted. Rigid-plastic mechanical models for cylinders are
presented. When the ratio of height to diameter, is larger than 1, there exists two-dimensional
tensile stress in the deformed body, when the ratio is smaller than 1, there exists shear stress in
static hydraulic zone. The former breaks through the theory that there is three-dimensional
compressive stress irrespective of any ratio of height to diameter. The latter satisfactorily explains
the mechanism of layer-like cracks in disk-shaped forgings and the flanges of forged gear axles.
The representation of the two models makes the upsetting theory into correct and perfect stage. (4

Abstract: Surface Ag<sup>+</sup> ions forming complexes with the amino (selenoamino) acids
compounds have been studied at a silver nitrate-modified carbon paste electrode
(AgNO<inf>3</inf>/CPE). The carboxyl, amidogen and selenium of selenoamino acids could
coordinate with Ag<sup>+</sup>. The coordinating sites of Ag<sup>+</sup>-SeCys and
Ag<sup>+</sup>-SeMet on electrode surface have been studied in the range of pH value from 1.0
to 12.0. The coordinating sites of Ag<sup>+</sup>-SeCys and Ag<sup>+</sup>-SeMet are due to
the different configuration and electronegative charge of amino acids in different acidity. Increase
of the coordination number of adsorbed species increases the average lifetime of these species on
the surface, and hence causes that stronger bonded molecules more effectively prevent the
depletion of the surface layer from the Ag<sup>+</sup> ions. The voltammetric signals of
Ag<sup>+</sup>-selenoamino acid and Ag<sup>+</sup>-sulfur-containing amino acid are
stronger than those of Ag<sup>+</sup>-alanine due to the coordinating sites of Ag{single bond}S
and Ag{single bond}Se bonds. Moreover, the adsorption of Ag<sup>+</sup>-selenoamino acid
on electrode surface relates to different acidity. © 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. (13

Abstract: An ultrasonic technique was employed to extract polysaccharides from longan fruit
pericarp (PLFP). Effects of ultrasonic power, time and temperature on the extraction of PLFP were
examined. Different effects of ultrasonic time were observed at two different ultrasonic power of
120 and 300 W. A higher recovery rate of PLFP at an ultrasonic power of 300 W was obtained as
compared with 120 W. The recovery rate of PLFP was slightly increased by elevating the
ultrasonic temperature up to 60 °C. The highest recovery rate of PLFP was achieved at 120
W and 70 °C for 20 min. Furthermore, PLFP I and PLFP II-IV were prepared by hot-water
extraction and ultrasonic extraction, respectively, and then used for the analyses of physical and
chemical properties. Analysis by differential scanning calorimetry showed that the onset
temperature, peak temperature, conclusion temperature and melting enthalpy (ΔH) of PLFP
by hot-water extraction were lower than those by ultrasonic extraction. These results suggested
that rearrangement of PLFP microstructure could occur and development of a higher proportion of
crystalline regions might be induced by the ultrasonic treatments. The highest ΔH (8.02 J/g)
and two endothermic peaks were observed in the thermogram of PLFP II. Scanning electron
micrographs revealed more aggregated particles in PLFP III and IV compared with PLFP I and II.
However, no apparent differences were found from the spectra of these four PLFP samples at a
range of 195-550 nm, which indicated that ultrasonic treatment might not cause significant
chemical modification of groups in the PLFP chain. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Abstract: The idea of using entropy measurement to detect anomalies is not a novelty in the
research community. But all these entropy-based approaches are single-scale based "complexity"
methods, and don't consider temporal and spatial correlation in network traffic. In this paper,
multi-scale entropy (MSE) and Renyi cross entropy are introduced to solve these problems. First,
a kind of Port-to-Port traffic termed IF-flow in router is defined. Internal traffic matrix can be
constructed by IF-flows. Then a new scheme based on MSE and Renyi cross entropy is proposed
to detect traffic anomaly existed in IF-flow matrix. MSE is used to detect IF-flow traces in time
scales. Renyi cross entropy is used to detect anomaly existed in IF-flow matrix in space and small
scale time, and pinpoint IF-flow(s) responsible for entropy change. An improved method to
calculate Renyi Cross entropy is proposed to reduce false alarm and identify anomaly duration.
The experimental results indicate the scheme can detect anomaly accurately in time and space.

Abstract: This paper presents an open air-vapor compression refrigeration system for both
air-conditioning and desalination on ship cooled by seawater, and proves its feasibility through
performance simulation. Pinch technology is used in the analysis of heat exchange in the surface
heat exchanger and the temperature difference at pinch point is selected as 6°C. The
freshwater is obtained from the dehumidification of the compressed wet air before turbine and the
flash and condensation of the cooling water. Its refrigeration depends mainly on both air and vapor,
more efficient than a conventional air-cycle, and the use of turbo-machinery makes this possible.
This system could use the cool in seawater, which could not be used to cool air directly. Also, the
heat rejected from this system could be used for desalination. The sensitivity analysis of COP to
η<inf>c</inf> and η<inf>t</inf> and the simulated results T<inf>4</inf>, T<inf>7</inf>,
T<inf>8</inf>, q<inf>1</inf>, q<inf>2</inf> and w<inf>m</inf> of circle are given. The
simulations show that the COP of this system depends mainly on T<inf>7</inf>,
η<inf>c</inf> and η<inf>t</inf>, and varies with T<inf>3</inf> or T<inf>wet</inf> and
that this circle is feasible on ship although the sensitivity of COP to efficiencies of the axial
compressor and turbine. The optimum pressure ratio in this system could be lower and this results
in a fewer number of stages of axial compressor. The adoption of this system will make
air-conditioned room more comfortable because of its very low temperature air obtained. Humid
air is a perfect working fluid for central air-conditioning and desalination on ship and no cost to
the owner. The system is more efficient because use of cool seawater to cool the air before turbine.
In addition, Pinch technology is a good method to analyze the wet air heat exchange with water.

Abstract: A new method of membrane sequencing batch reactor (MSBR) process in abattoir
wastewater treatment is given. With nitrification and denitrification bacterium, it is effective to
remove nitrogen. At the same time, the whole system can be autocontrolled and do not add any
drugs or bacteriums again after it runs. The experimental results show that the quality of abattoir
wastewater can attain to the national requirements of the first grade of integrated wastewater
discharge standard (GB 8978 - 1996). About 45-65% of the solids or approximately 30-40% of the
biological oxygen demand (BOD) load can be separated by pre-treatment screening and
sedimentation. MSBR systems are lagoon, membrane sequencing batch reactor (MSBR),
biological treatment and membrane filter (MF) processes. Abattoir wastewater is well suited to
MSBR treatment because it is high in organic compounds. Typical reductions of up to 98% BOD,
93% SS, 98% COD, 95% NH<inf>3</inf>-N and 95% lipin are approved. Wastewater in abattoirs
can be reduced by membrane filtration which can produce recyclable water. Total COD can be
reduced below 100 mg/L. The performances of both sequencing batch reactor (SBR) process and
membrane sequencing batch reactor (MSBR) process operating simultaneously under the same
condition to treat abattoir wastewater were examined. Conventional SBR treatment average COD
removal efficiencies are of 85-90%. MSBR average COD removal efficiencies are of 98%. The
result show that MSBR process has better treatment effect and is easier to operate and manage
compared with SBR process. MSBR is a new method of abattoir wastewater treatment and has a
broad prospects. © 2006. (4 refs.)Main Heading: Wastewater treatmentControlled terms:

Abstract: It applies a rule engine design scheme with dynamic programming algorithm and
optimal policy in financial management system. The scheme adopts backward reasoning method,
when the facts and rules change in a small way, the results of constant parts are kept by the
algorithm, and it just needs to calculate the changing parts. Thus, the massive repeated calculating
workload can be reduced, which enhances system performance greatly. When the facts and rules
have big changing, the algorithm still retains a high efficiency. The testing result shows that the
average response time to system is far lower than both of forward reasoning and ordinary
backward reasoning method in same circumstances. ©2008 IEEE. (11 refs.)Main Heading:

Abstract: A combined super compact finite difference scheme (CSCD) is proposed. Numerical
characteristics of CSCD is analysed and compared with other symmetric difference schemes. The
truncation error of CSCD is derived and compared with some symmetric finite difference methods
having the same order of accuracy, which shows that CSCD has the smallest coefficients in error
terms. By using Fourier analysis on the capability of resolution, we conclude that CSCD gives
higher resolution, with respect to other symmetric finite difference methods. Tenth-order CSCD is
applied to numerical simulation of KdV-Burgers equation and shallow water equations. Two tests
are given. Numerical experiment point out that CSCD has properties of not only higher accuracy
but also good stability and convergence. (13 refs.)Main Heading: Difference equationsControlled

Abstract: The occurrence of algal bloom has threatened the water quality of Taihu Lake that
provides drinking water for millions of people in the eastern Chinese city of Wuxi, Jiangsu
Province. Chlorophyll a presented in living phytoplankton is a very important ecological and
environmental parameter of waters and it is usually used as indicator of the algal bloom. To assess
changes in chlorophyll a concentration distributions before an algal bloom in Taihu Lake on May
29, 2007, a linear model was established between the radio of band 1 (620-670nm) to band 2
(841-876nm) of the MODIS medium-resolution bands and the in situ measurements of chlorophyll
a concentration. The distributions of chlorophyll a concentration are mapped. The phytoplankton
patches are evenly distributed over the Taihu Lake during March 2007, while the patches are
confined to north part of the lake along the bank during May 2007, including Meiliang Bay where
the water supply of Wuxi city is. This study demonstrates that the moderately high resolution of
MODIS/Terra 250-m data is useful for monitoring the chlorophyll a distribution in small inland
water body such as Taihu Lake. © 2008 SPIE. (10 refs.)Main Heading:

Abstract: As the shell side of flow plate baffle heat exchanger scours crossly heat exchanger
tubes, there are some disadvantages such as big vibration and pressure drop, and easily fouling,
and low Reynolds number Re of shell side flow of rod-baffle heat exchanger when it is used as
cooling oil exchanger. To overcome these disadvantages, flower baffle heat exchanger was
developed, which has a new kind of support structure in shell side with different flow way from
that of single-plate baffle heat exchanger. Shell side flow scours vertically heat exchanger tubes.
And it has low shell side pressure drop, low noise caused by tube vibration. By contrasting
experimental research of heat exchange and flow resistance between flower baffle heat exchanger
and plate baffle heat exchanger, the shell side pressure drop of flower baffle heat exchanger is
about 70%-80% of plate baffle heat exchanger when Re is the same. The integrated performance
ratio of flower baffle heat exchanger contrasting with plate baffle heat exchanger is 110%-140%.

Abstract: With the development and applications of satellite remote sensing technology, the edge
detection accuracy of remote sensing image is increasingly high. As the gray remote sensing
image has a lot of noise, even image brightness, and vague edge, a novel edge detection algorithm
based on cellular neural network (CNN) is presented. In the algorithm, image filtering, gray
threshold segmentation, dilation and erosion, and edge detection using CNN are performed for
remote sensing image successively. The experimental results show that, compared to the
traditional edge detection algorithms of Sobel operator and Canny operator, the proposed edge
detection algorithm can not only effectively eliminate the influence of the noise on edge detection,
but also quickly detect the complete image edge. © 2008 IEEE. (10 refs.)Main Heading:

Abstract: An inter-phasing pulse tube cooler (IPPTC) consists of two pulse tube units, which are
connected to each other at hot ends of the pulse tubes through a needle valve. This paper presents
the computational fluid dynamic (CFD) results of an IPPTC using a 2D axis-symmetrical model.
General results such as the phase difference between pressure and velocity at cold end and hot end,
the temperature profiles along the wall, the available lowest temperature as well as its oscillations
and the coefficient of performance (COP) for IPPTC are presented. The formation of DC flow and
its effects on the performance of the cooler are investigated and analyzed in detail. Turbulence,
which is partially responsible for the poor overall performance of a single orifice pulse tube cooler
(OPTC), is found to be much reduced in IPPTC and its performance is improved significantly
compared with the single OPTC. © 2008 Springer-Verlag. (13 refs.)Main Heading:

Abstract: Nine years of weekly Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS) data from
1998 to 2006 are used to investigate the temporal correlations in chlorophyll fluctuations by
means of detrended fluctuation analysis. Chlorophyll fluctuations are found to exhibit scaling
behavior on time scales from several weeks to more than two years over the global ocean between
50°S and 50°N. The scaling exponent varies in a wide range from 0.51 to 1.26, with an
average value of 0.83. Long range correlated fluctuations occur over large parts of the ocean,
while uncorrelated random fluctuations tend to concentrate in the western margins of the Pacific
and Atlantic. The global distribution of the scaling exponent is similar to that of the ratio of
interannual to total variability. A greater percentage of interannual to total variability is generally
associated with a larger scaling exponent and hence stronger long range correlation. Copyright

Abstract: In this paper, the thermal degradation mechanism of ultraviolet-induced fiber Bragg
gratings (FBGs) written in silica fiber doped with germanium has been developed. The thermal
degradation up to 840 °C has been repeatedly examined, and their reflectivity and Bragg
wavelength change have been carefully observed. In addition, the temperature characteristic of the
FBG is tested by putting it into a silica tube furnace heated from room temperature to 600 °C.
The experiment results obtained has shown that the FBGs' thermal behavior is similar to a spring's.
Therefore, a novel viewpoint, atomic elastic model applied to explain the thermal degradation
mechanism of FBGs, is firstly present. The work is closely related to the use of FBGs for
application in temperature sensor field, and the work is also related to form mechanism of FBGs.

Abstract: Three parallel units of pilot-scale constructed wetlands (CWs), i.e., vertical subsurface
flow (VSF), horizontal subsurface flow (HSF) and free water surface flow (FWS) wetland were
experimented to assess their capabilities in purifying eutrophic water of Taihu Lake, China. Lake
water was continuously pumped into the CWs at a hydraulic loading rate of 0.64 m
d<sup>-1</sup> for each treatment. One year's performance displayed that average removal rates
of chemical oxygen demand (COD), ammonia nitrogen (NH<inf>4</inf><sup>+</sup> s(-) N),
nitrate nitrogen (NO<inf>3</inf><sup>-</sup> s(-) N), total nitrogen (TN) and total phosphorous
(TP) were 17-40%, 23-46%, 34-65%, 20-52% and 35-66%, respectively. The VSF and HSF
showed

removal
except
NH<inf>4</inf><sup>+</sup> s(-) N, with the former being 14% higher than that of the latter.
However, the FWS wetland showed the least effect compared to the VSF and HSF at the high
hydraulic loading rate. Mean effluent TP concentrations in VSF (0.056 mg L<sup>-1</sup>) and
HSF (0.052 mg L<sup>-1</sup>) nearly reached Grade III (&le0.05 mg L<sup>-1</sup> for
lakes and reserviors) water quality standard of China. Wetland plants (Typha angustifolia) grew
well in the three CWs. We noted that plant uptake and storage were both important factors
responsible for nitrogen and phosphorous removal in the three CWs. However, harvesting of the
above ground biomass contributed 20% N and 57% P of the total N and P removed in FWS
wetland, whereas it accounted for only 5% and 7% N, and 14% and 17% P of the total N and P
removed in VSF and HSF CWs, respectively. Our findings suggest that the constructed wetlands
could well treat the eutrophic lake waters in Taihu. If land limiting is considered, VSF and HSF
are more appropriate than FWS under higher hydraulic loading rate. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd.

Abstract: In coastal marine environment, acid volatile sulfide (AVS) is usually one of the most
important or reactive phases. We report first set of data on AVS contents in sediments of south
Yellow Sea. The AVS contents are less than 11.14 μmol/g (dry sediment weight), with most
below 3 μmol/g in the sediment of south Yellow Sea. The average AVS contents of surface
sediments (0∼10 cm) range from 0.02 μmol/g to 2.30 μmol/g, with an average value
of 0.94 μmol/g. There are three zones with high AVS content in sediments and they are
dominated by the Yellow River sediments and the old Yellow River transported by coastal current
and the Yellow Sea Cold Water Mass, respectively. The AVS content in sediments of these three
zones increases initially with burial depth, reaching a maximum at about 13 cm (6cm for east
section), then decreases. One core from the south section, however, shows an exceptionally high
AVS content at the surface (4.96 μmol/g) and a minimum at around 7 cm burial depth. This
AVS abnormal profile is located at the place where enrichment of methane at shallow layer
reported. Except those three high value areas, the AVS content of sediment is very low and does
not show significant variations. It is apparent that sediment AVS content is closely related to the
organic matter in different sediment environment, since the content of Fe is quite high (average
3.13%) in the sediment of Yellow Sea. © 2008 IEEE. (24 refs.)Main Heading:

Abstract: In the surface wind drift layer with constant momentum flux, two sets of the consistent
surface elevation expressions with breaking and occurrence conditions for breaking are deduced
from the first integrals of the energy and vortex variations and the kinetic and mathematic
breaking criterions, then the expression of the surface elevation with wave breaking is established
by using the Heaviside function. On the basis of the form of the sea surface elevation with wave
breaking and the understanding of small slope sea waves, a triple composite function of real sea
waves is presented including the functions for the breaking, weak-nonlinear and basic waves. The
expression of the triple composite function and the normal distribution of basic waves are the
expected theoretical model for surface elevation statistics. © Science in China 2008. (18

Abstract: A state-space model is presented to predict the concentration and the fate of particulate
matters (PM) in multizone indoor air. By introducing vector-matrix notation, the ordinary
differential equations to describe the dynamic behavior of PM in multizone buildings are
expressed as the state equation. The state equation is solved analytically and the dynamical
evolution of PM is discussed quantitatively and qualitatively. The equilibrium point of the
dynamic system is asymptotically stable. The minimum decay coefficient of PM concentrations is
computed by the formula, which is found to directly link the minimum decay rate with the
eigenvalues of the state matrix. The analytical solution based on the eigen structure shows that the
evolution modes of indoor PM are mainly determined by the eigenvalues of state matrix. The
detailed quantitative analysis on the diluted ventilation and interzonal transport via the central
air-conditioning system indicates that the penetration efficiency of filter Pi and the integrated
loss-rate coefficient kij integrating the remove mechanisms of natural ventilation, leakage and
particle deposition have significant impact on dynamical behaviors of particles, such as the decay
rate of concentrations and the ability of interzonal infection via HVAC system, etc. © 2008

Abstract: A 4-week feeding experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of several
commercial probiotics in feed or in water on growth performance, feed conversion ratio (FCR)
and water quality (pH, Ammonia, Nitrite) for Pennaeus vannamei. B. acidophilus, B. licheniformis:
B. subtills (1:1), Xiale 333 were added respectively to fonnulate three experiment diets. Groups of
shrimp were fed with basal diet (control) or 0.5g/200 L of probiotics in water respectively with
basal diet or basal diet supplemental probiotics with dose (1 g &middot kg<sup>-1</sup>). Each
treatment was fed to triplicate groups of 25 shrimps (initial weight 4.5 ± 0.1g) per tank
(300 L). The water temperature was (28.5±5)°C and the salinity was 5‰. pH,
Ammonia, Nitrite were measured every three days after the experiment began. The results of
growth performance showed that the six treatments showed significantly better results and FCR
than those with the basal diet (control), especially treatments of added probiotics in water had
lowest FCR among the groups (P < 0.05). pH, ammonia, nitrite of treatments were lower than
the control, however there was no differences in the six treatments (P > 0.05). (20 refs.)Main

Abstract: The most present threshold multi-secret sharing schemes cannot efficiently solve the
problem that a participant is dynamic added or deleted. In this study, an efficient multi-secret
sharing scheme is designed with general access structure based on the intractability of reversing
the one-way Hash function and solving the discrete logarithm problem. The proposed scheme has
the following properties: cheating of the dealer or any participant can be detected efficiently; two
public parameters of a new secret would be published by the dealer; the participants reconstruct a
secret with parallel procedure in a secret recovery phase; and the shadows of other participants
would not change when the system accepts a new participant or fires an old participant. (10

Abstract: An analytical solution for the diffraction of short crested incident wave along positive
x-axis direction on a large circular cylinder with uniform current is derived. The important
influences of currents on wave frequency, water run-up, wave force, inertia and drag coefficients
on the cylinder profiles are investigated for short-crested incident wave. Based on the numerical
results, we find wave frequency of short crested wave system is affected by incident angle and the
strength of the currents. The wave frequency increases or decreases with increasing current speed
following or opposing wave propagating direction. It shows that the effects of current speeds,
current directions on water run-up on the circular cylinder with different radius for different wave
numbers are very conspicuous when the incident wave changes from long crested plane waves to
short-crested waves. With the increase of current speed, the water run-up on the cylinder becomes
more and more high, and will exceed that of long crested plane wave and short crested wave case
without currents even though the current speed is small. The total wave loads, inertia coefficient
and drag coefficient exerted on a cylinder with currents would be larger compared to the wave
loads exerted pure short-crested waves. Therefore, ocean engineers should consider the short
crested wave-current load on marine constructs carefully. © 2007 Elsevier Masson SAS. All

Abstract: To filter out various kinds of noise of different intensities in gray images, a highly
adaptive morphological filter based on multiple structure and multi-scale elements was proposed.
This algorithm employs a morphology filter based on multiple structure and multi-scale elements
to filter the images, followed by image fusion processing with the weights calculated from the
image entropies, before finally obtaining the filtered images. The experimental results show that
the proposed filtering algorithm, compared with the traditional filtering algorithms using the mean
filter, median filter and Wiener filter, has a better adaptability. The new algorithm can effectively
filter many kinds of noise such as the Salt and Pepper noise, Gaussian noise and Speckle noise,
while preserving more image details. © 2008 IEEE. (9 refs.)Main Heading: Image

Abstract: A model of periodic ring-stiffened cylindrical shell was designed, and the experiment
on the vibrational power flow from the model excited by an outer force was accomplished. The
input power flow was measured both in the air and underwater. It is found that the results
underwater are slightly less than those in the air because of the influence of the outer flow field.
The results obtained by experiment well agree with those produced by theoretical values at low
frequencies. With the increasing of frequencies, theoretical values become slightly greater than
experiment values due to the change of Young' modulus and damping factor. The results obtained
by experiment show the validity of theoretical derivation and numerical method, which will
provide some references on control of vibration and noise in such structures. (5 refs.)Main

Abstract: In this paper, the transport structures of double diffusive natural convection in a square
cavity driven by two discrete heat and mass sources were analyzed by the use of "vector line"
method. The analyses show that there obviously exist three different kinds of macrostructures of
transport versus different buoyancy ratios, the first is mainly dominated by thermal buoyancy, the
second is controlled by thermal and mass buoyancy forces together and the third one basically
dominated by mass buoyancy. (12 refs.)Main Heading: BuoyancyControlled terms: Electric field

Abstract: The organic constituents and distributions of molecular markers emitted from a
residential coal-stove burning honeycomb coal briquettes were determined in this study. The major
organic components emitted directly in smoke particles were polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
(PAHs), with abundant hydroxy-polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (OH-PAHs), i.e., thermally
altered derivative compounds from coal combustion, UCM (unresolved complex mixture of
branched and cyclic compounds), n-alkanes and n-alkanoic acids. Other compounds present as
minor components included n-alkenes, phenols, alkylbenzenes and n-alkanols. The distributions of
the organic compounds in the coal smoke samples were highly variable and dependent on
combustion temperature, flame aeration, fire duration, and coal rank. Coal smoke emissions may
be identified by some indicators including: (1) presence of hydroxy-PAHs, (2) the decrease in
carbon preference index (CPI) of n-alkanoic acids with increasing rank, (3) the decrease of the
ratios
of
17α(H),21β(H)-29-norhopane
to
22R-17α(H),21β(H)-homohopane and 17α(H),21β(H)-29-norhopane to
17α(H),21β(H)-hopane with increasing rank, (4) the increases in the homohopane
index [22S/(22S + 22R)] and the 17α(H),21β(H)-hopane to 17β(H),
21α(H)-hopane ratio with increasing rank, and (5) the increase of
benzo[e]pyrene/(benzo[e]pyrene + benzo[a]pyrene) with increasing rank. In addition, the
diagnostic ratios among PAHs and between PAHs and the corresponding hydroxy-PAHs, such as
benz[a]anthracene/(benz[a]anthracene
+
chrysene),
indeno[1,2,3-cd]pyrene/(indeno[1,2,3-cd]pyrene + benzo[ghi]perylene), pyrene/OH-pyrene, and

Abstract: Artificial immune recognition system (AIRS) had been proved a highly effective
classifier, and successfully applied to pattern recognition. However, the huge size of evolved
memory cells pool and low classification accuracy limited the further applications of AIRS. In
order to overcome these limitations, a supervised artificial immune classifier, referred to as AIUC,
was presented. The implementation of AIUC included: initially, a pool of memory cells were
created. Then, through the learning of each training antigen, B-cell population was evolved until
the B-cell population was convergent, and the memory cells pool was updated by the optimal
B-cell. Finally, classification was accomplished by majority vote of the k nearest memory cells.
Compared with AIRS, AIUC showed the improvements for the percentages reduction of memory
cells pool by 5.6%, 18%, 19.6% and 31%, respectively, meanwhile, the classification accuracies
increased to 98.2%, 96.9%, 78.3%, and 92.3%, for the famous Iris dataset, the Ionosphere dataset,
the Diabetes dataset, and the Sonar dataset, which were used for testing classification algorithm,
respectively. In addition to its nonlinear classification properties, AIUC possessed biological
immune system properties such as clonal selection, immune network, and immune memory, which
could be better used to pattern recognition, anomaly detection. (19 refs.)Main Heading:

Abstract: With the data of surface water salinity from 8 water gates, the Lagrange interpolation
method and the Surfer software as tools, this paper draws the hourly longitudinal saltwater
intrusion-border of Modaomen Channel in the past 3 months. The results show the hourly changes
of the 0.5‰, 2‰, 5‰ and 8‰ saltwater intrusion-borders, and their
movement law is discussed based on these results. We have made special analysis of the
0.5‰ daily farthest intrusion-border and found a half-month period for the saltwater
intrusion-border of Modaomen Channel. But the movement for the first half of the month is not
identical to that of the second half. The saltwater moves upstream during neap and downstream
during spring tide. The time saltwater tracing farthest is 5 hours later than the climax that occurs
daily. The daily farthest 0.5‰ saltwater border and tidal range chart show the tidal range
curve is ring-shaped in the first half of the month, and spoon-shaped in the second half because the
greater tidal range causes the saltwater to move upstream again. (4 refs.)Main Heading: Salt water

Abstract: In this paper, the degree of reader's satisfaction and querulous of in university library
are quantified simultaneously utilizing interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set (IVIFS) as
information carrier. Then we use the weighted arithmetic average operator of IVIFS to aggregate
the result of every alternative with respect to a finite set of indexes, and to compare the size of all
evaluation results of each alternative according to the score function and accuracy function of
IVIFS. Finally, an example is given to explain the validity and practicability of this method about
evaluation of the degree of reader's satisfaction in university library. © 2008 IEEE. (7

Abstract: Artificial Immune System (AIS) has been successful in many realms, especially in
computer security, and the correlative algorithms rely on self-nonself discrimination, as stipulated
in classical immunology. But when the algorithms are used in practical applications, scaling
problems of self and nonself, computational efficiency, and the changing problems of self and
nonself have to be addressed. Meanwhile, immunologists are increasingly finding faults with
traditional self-nonself discrimination and a new Danger Theory (DT) is emerging. This new
theory suggests that Human Immune System (HIS) is more concerned with damages than nonself
and HIS reacts to threats through the correlation of danger signals. Based on the DT, within the
context of computer system, immune response model is presented. In the model, the definitions of
the danger signal, response type and intensity, and etc. are given. Then the producing method of
the danger signal is put forth, and they are significant in incorporating the DT into computer
security applications. 1548-7741/Copyright © 2008 Binary Information Press October 2008.

Abstract: Using NOAA and MODIS(Tera & Aqua) satellites data, and mainly basing on
3×3 degree square as study area, the authors systematically analysis the effects of Sea
Surface Temperature (SST) caused by 37 typhoons which passed by the Northwest Pacific Ocean
from 2000 to 2008 and find: (1) In the Northwest Pacific Ocaea area, the SST without typhoon is
averagely 26.10°C, but the SST is averagely 22.90°C during typhoon happened. The
SST averagely decreases 3.20°C with the drop rate of 11.55%, and the maximal fall of SST is
7.79°C by typhoon. At the same time, the sustaining time with low SST is usually 2∼5
days, and the time mainly lies on the lingering time of typhoon in the sea areas. After typhoon, the
SST comebacks to the normal level before typhoon had happened.This can be seen clearly from
the change of the SST before and after typhoon SAOMAI and LEKIMA. (2) In the study area of
typhoon SAOMAI and LEKIMA passed througth, there are certain rightward bias of the
distribution of the decrease of SST before and after typhoon. (3) The decrease of SST during
typhoon is positive correlation with the wind speed and negative correlation with the moving
speed of typhoon respectively and the correlation coefficient is less than 0.3, but it is better
positive corrlation with the weight of typhoon and the correlation coefficient rises to 0.47.In
conclusion, the effect of SST by typhoon is notable, and based on remote sensing to study this
effects is effective means. © 2008 SPIE. (11 refs.)Main Heading: Atmospheric

Abstract: A new method of hydrolytic acidification-sequencing batch reactor (SBR) process in
aquatic products processing wastewater treatment is given. In the stage of the pretreatment, the
hydrolysis-acidification technology was adopted, it is effective to improve the biodegradability of
the wastewater. The SBR method was used in the stage of biochemical treatment. The
experimental results show that the quality of aquatic products processing wastewater can attain to
the national requirements of the first grade of integrated wastewater discharge standard (GB 8978
- 1996). When wastewater temperature was 20°C, HRT was over 6 h and influent COD,
BOD<inf>5</inf> and SS was 1100-1650 mg/L, 500-750 mg/L and 250-400 mg/L respectively,
with more 95%, 96% and 92% of average removal rate respectively, the average effluent COD,
BOD<inf>5</inf> and SS was 55.5 mg/L, 19.8 mg/L and 20.0 mg/L. The largest organic loading
was 4.1 kg COD/m<sup>3</sup> d. The BOD<inf>5</inf>/COD value of aquatic product
processing wastewater can be raised from 0.50 to 0.64 via hydrolytic acidification treatment.

Abstract: One of the most significant issues in intrusion detection is automating responses to
intrusions, but has so far been largely overlooked and therefore requires further research in its own
right. And another main weakness of current intrusion detection systems is that they often generate
too many same or similar alerts for one intrusion and system immune alerts. This will use a lot of
time to respond repeatedly. As a result, a better method to solve above problem is making use of
the aggregation to classify the alerts and the Response Cost to decrease the system immune alerts.
At last, this paper presents a modal of automatic intrusion response system and introduces the
implement in detail. © 2008 IEEE. (10 refs.)Main Heading: Intrusion detectionControlled

Abstract: The idea of using entropy measurement to detect anomalies or analyze traffic
characteristics has been floating around the research community for some time. But all these
entropy-based approaches are singlescale based "complexity" methods and fail to account for the
multiple time scales inherent in time series. In order to fulfill this goal we have introduced Renyi
entropy based method:multi-scale entropy (MSE). In this paper, a kind of Port-to-Port traffic in
router is presented, which we call IF-flow. IF-flows can amplify the ratio of attack traffic to
normal traffic. We apply MSE to the analysis of IF-flow time series in time scales, and find some
interesting results. One of results supports a general view that flow count metric has a more
powerful ability to detect many types of anomalies than byte and packet count metric. We also use
MSE to detect anomaly existed in IF-flow time series. The experimental results indicate MSE can
detect anomaly accurately. © 2008 IEEE. (16 refs.)Main Heading: Time series

Abstract: A process which determines the physical locations of nodes in a wireless sensor
networks is called self-localization. Self-localization is critical for medium- to large-scale sensor
networks because manual localization or pre-positioning is often impossible due to time
requirements, cost constraints or inherent limitations of deployment. Most previously proposed
algorithms to the problem are unable to locate sensor nodes accurately. Furthermore, the estimated
location is very sensitive to the ranging error. In this paper, we present an alternating combination
trilateration algorithm based on fewer beacons, the relative position of sensor nodes, weighted
function and weighted polygon. Our main objective is to obtain accurate location, robustness to
the ranging error, lower communication overhead, and avoid accurate synchronization, intensive
computations. Numerical simulations verify its good performance when sensor nodes are deployed
asymmetrically. © 2007 IEEE. (14 refs.)Main Heading: Wireless sensor networksControlled

Interaction between Cr(VI) and a Fe-rich soil in the presence of oxalic and tartaric acids

Abstract: This study examined the interaction between Cr(VI) and a Fe-rich soil in the presence
of low-molecular-weight organic acids as a function of pH. Oxalic and tartaric acids were chosen
since they existed in soils commonly. Batch experiments showed that adsorption of Cr(VI) by the
soil within the pH range examined was inhibited in the presence of oxalic acid, which was more
pronounced when the initial ratio of [oxalic acid]/[Cr(VI)] was raised from 1:1 to 2:1. With the
addition of tartaric acid, concentration of Cr(VI) in equilibrium solutions was far less than that of
single adsorbate system across the pH wide (2.5-5.5), which was noticeable especially at low pH.
The results were attributed to Cr(VI) adsorption and, particularly, the soil surface catalyzed
reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) by tartaric acid. The data reported in this paper suggested that the
mobility, the bioavailability, and the toxicity of Cr(VI) in soil environments might be greatly
affected by pH, the presence and nature of low-weight-molecular organic acids (oxalic and tartaric
acids). © 2007 Springer-Verlag. (24 refs.)Main Heading: SoilsControlled terms: Addition

Abstract: Attenuated total reflection (ATR) ratio is usually utilized to study the properties of
surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensors. The relationship between normalized light intensity and
ATR ratio is investigated, and a modification coefficient is put forward to describe the relationship.
A mathematical expression is built up for the coefficient based on Fresnel principle. The result
shows that the ATR ratio, which cannot be measured directly in experiments, can be determined
with the coefficient and the normalized intensity of light. The characteristic of the coefficient is
also discussed. (15 refs.)Main Heading: Optical sensorsControlled terms: Reflection - Surface

Abstract: In this paper, we study the oscillatory and asymptotic properties of solutions of higher
order nonlinear neutral difference equations. Using Krasnoselskii's fixed point theorem,
Schauder's fixed point theorem and Lebesgue's dominated convergence theorem, we obtain some
necessary and sufficient conditions for all bounded solutions to be oscillatory or tend to zero. Our
results extend and improve some known results. © 2008 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. (24

Abstract: A new method of separation of carcinogenic aromatic amines in wastewater is given.
With SDS (C<inf>12</inf>H<inf>25</inf>O<inf>4</inf>SN<inf>a</inf>) and β-CD
(β-cyclodextrin) addition, it is effective to improve separation. At the same time, it forms
mixed micelle. As a result, a micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography (MECC) system
was established. Nine aromatic amines were separated by the MECC with added lower
concentration of β-CD. In the system, the sample entered the capillary at the in positive
electrode and was detected at the negative electrode. The experiment revealed that the separation
of aromatic amines increased quickly with a slight increase in β-CD concentration in MECC.
Nine analytes reach the baseline separation in 13 min. The retention order of peaks of aromatic
amines is related to the number of carbon atoms of the solute molecules and the numbers of amino.
When the number of amino groups gets larger, the number of carbon atoms of the solute
molecules becomes smaller, and the peaks elute earlier, the 110 mmol/L SDS and 10 mmol/L
β-CD were chosen. When the NaH<inf>2</inf>PO<inf>4</inf> concentration is from 20 to
60 mmol/L, the separation of aromatic amines increased quickly. And then the 40 mmol/L is
chosen. The optimal conditions were 40 mmol/L NaH<inf>2</inf>PO<inf>4</inf> (pH 9.6).

Abstract: The thermal degradation of chitosan and chitosan-cupric ion compounds in nitrogen
was studied by thermogravimetry analysis and differential thermal analysis (DTA) in the
temperature range 30-600°C. The effect of cupric ion on the thermal degradation behaviors
of chitosan was discussed. Fourier transform-infrared (FTIR) and X-ray diffractogram (XRD)
analysis were utilized to determine the micro-structure of chitosan-cupric ion compounds. The
results show that FTIR absorbance bands of - N - H, - C - N -, - C - O - C - etc. groups of chitosan
are shifted, and XRD peaks of chitosan located at 11.3, 17.8, and 22.8° are gradually absent
with increasing weight fraction of cupric ion mixed in chitosan, which show that there are
coordinating bonds between chitosan and cupric ion. The results of thermal analysis indicate that
the thermal degradation of chitosan and chitosancupric ion compounds in nitrogen is a two-stage
reaction. The first stage is the deacetylation of the main chain and the cleavage of glycosidic
linkages of chitosan, and the second stage is the thermal destruction of pyranose ring of chitosan
and the decomposition of residual carbon, in which both are exothermic. The effect of cupric ion
on the thermal degradation of chitosan is significant. In the thermal degradation of chitosan-cupric
ion compounds, the temperature of initial weight loss (T <inf>st</inf>), the temperature of
maximal weight loss rate (T<inf>max</inf>), that is, the peak temperature on the DTG curve, and
the peak temperature (T <inf>p</inf>) on the DTA curve decrease, and the reaction activation
energy (E<inf>a</inf>) varies with increasing weight fraction of cupric ion. © 2008 Wiley

Abstract: Determination of appropriate neural-network (NN) structure is an important issue for a
given learning or training task since the NN performance depends much on it. To remedy the
weakness of conventional BP neural networks and learning algorithms, a new Laguerre orthogonal
basis neural network is constructed. Based on this special structure, a weights-direct-determination
method is derived, which could obtain the optimal weights of such a neural network directly (or to
say, just in one step). Furthermore, a growing algorithm is presented for determining immediately
the smallest number of hidden-layer neurons. Theoretical analysis and simulation results
substantiate the efficacy of such a Laguerre-orthogonal-basis neural network and its growing
algorithm based on the weights-direct-determination method. © 2008 Springer-Verlag Berlin

Abstract: The objective of this study was to investigate the catalytic effect of a red soil rich in
Fe-oxides on the reduction of Cr(VI) by citric acid. Experimental results showed that the redox
reaction would be greatly enhanced in the presence of the soil surfaces. The catalytic effect of the
soil surfaces was very pronounced at low pH. Whereas with the increase in pH, the soil
surfaces-catalyzed redox reaction was gradually inhibited because reactant adsorption might be a
necessary step for the heterogeneous redox reaction to take place. Although more adsorbed Cr(VI)
would be released into the soil solution when citric acid coexisted with phosphate, the
concentration of the reduced product Cr(III) in the equilibrium solution was lower than that in the
system without phosphate, ivhich further suggested that the reaction mainly occurred on the soil
surfaces. The Fe(II)-Fe(III) redox couple has also been found to accelerate the reaction. Cr(VI)
could be directly reduced by the Fe(II) ions produced during the citric acid-promoted reductive
dissolution of Fe-oxides in the soil. In addition, the kinetic studies showed that the presence of
Fe(III) ions, also released from the dissolution process, could increase the Cr(VI) reduction rate by
the citric acid. Information obtained from natural soil in this study is important for remediation of
Cr(VI)-contaminated soils by application of natural organic materials. © 2008 American

Abstract: In order to analyze the natural frequency correlation of huge vibration system, a new
method based on transfer matrix method of multibody system was proposed, named as Monte
Carlo transfer matrix method. In the method, the structural parameters were regarded as a set of
random variables, and Monte Carlo method was used to produce several specimens of the
stachastic parameters. According to these specimens the corresponding natural frequencies were
computed by transfer matrix method for multibody system. The correlation coefficient between
natural frequencies and structural parameters and the test statistics were obtained and used to
analyze the correlation property. In the method, differential operation is not necessary and the
conventional computing procedure used to calculate the natrual frequencies almost does not need
any improvement. As an engineering example, the method is used to analyze the natural frequency
correlation of certain self-propelled artillery. The simulation results and the test results are in good
agreement. (16 refs.)Main Heading: Transfer matrix methodControlled terms: Cluster analysis Correlation methods - Discriminant analysis - Mathematical models - Monte Carlo methods Natural frequencies - Ordnance - Random variables - Regression analysis - Statistical

interaction among different evaporators. An optimal control method and a two-stage fuzzy
proportional integral derivative (FPID) controller for room temperature control are proposed. The
salient feature of the twostage FPID controller is that it has a simple structure and is easy to
implement. The controllability is tested in a triple evaporator multi-split air conditioning system,
research results show that the proposed optimal control method with two-stage FPID controller
could achieve desired control accuracy and guarantee good robustness for room temperature

Abstract: The entire mitochondrial DNA sequence (mitogenome) of Russell's snapper (Lutjanus
russellii) was determined using long PCR and primer-walking methodology, representing the first
complete mitogenome accessioned for Lutjanid fishes (16, 505 bp, GenBank Accession No.
EF514208). The mitogenome was similar in gene composition and order to those of other
vertebrates, having 37 structural genes, i.e., two ribosomal RNAs, 22 transfer RNAs, and 13
protein-coding genes. Phylogenetic analyses based on the mtDNA sequence of Russell's snapper
supported a close relationship between Lutjaninae and Caesioninae, consistent with taxonomic
hypotheses based on morphology. More studies utilizing mitogenomes are needed to resolve
high-level relationships among snappers. (15 refs.)

Abstract: At the beginning of 2008, the south area of China suffered a rare heavy snow and low
temperature weather, which brought enormous economic lose and broke the environment. The
abnormal weather also influenced the ocean color environment. Through analysis of MODIS
remote sensing 3A data during 2 months before and after the snowstorm and low temperature
weather, the author finds that, on the one hand,compared with same period of last year, the sea
surface temperature (SST) from the East China Sea to the South China Sea (18°N-32°N
108°E-126°E
descended
2.57°C;
the
average
chlorophyll-a
concentration(CHL-a)rose from 1.198 mg. m<sup>-3</sup> to 1.75 mg. m<sup>-3</sup> in the
snowstorm and low temperature weather period from January 11 to 31 of 2008 which was 1.46
times more than that of the same period of last year. On the other hand, compared with the period
before snowstorm,the SST decreased from 22.42°C to 18.34°C but the CHL-a rose from
1.32 mg. m<sup>-3</sup> to 1.60 mg. m<sup>-3</sup> after the snowstorm. In addition,the sea
water transparency(SDD) had a certain increase in the open sea of South China Sea, but the
suspended sediment concentration(SSC) increased significantly near the seashore, the Yangtse
River Estuary and the Pearl River Estuary, which increased 200% compared with the period
before the snowstorm 2008. Through researching and indicating, the main reason of increase of
the CHL-a in the near seashore area(the I water) was more probably due to the increase of the SSC,
and the CHL-a by remote sensing has greater error, which rising from the high SSC led to the
increase of CHL-a; but in the open sea the increase of CHL-a is that the SDD improved and then
the euphotic increased. As a result,this could promote the growth of primary productivity.
Therefore, it faces the better applied foreground to monitor the influence on the ocean ecosystem
environment caused by the snowstorm and low temperature weather through remote sensing.

Abstract: In order to look for a low-energy-consumption and high-efficiency drying method, the
drying characteristics of chitin under infrared ray were studied. The results show that temperature
has more obvious influence than granularity on the drying rate of chitin. With the increase of
temperature, the drying rate increases. The chitin granularity does not have a significant influence
on drying rate. Comparisons of different drying models at different temperatures were made
through linear regression analysis program. The results show that the drying procedure of chitin
under infrared ray can accurately be described by the Page model, and the drying rates and
moisture contents at different drying stages can also be easily estimated by it. (14 refs.)

Abstract: A numerical method for modelling the temperature field of milling insert with 3D
complex groove is proposed based on the self-organising Cellular Automata. The self-organising
local rule of Cellular Automata is derived to describe the heat transfer that affects temperature of
milling insert using the finite difference theory. Consequently, a Cellular Automata model is built
to predict the dynamic temperature field of the milling insert with 3D complex groove, which is
also called wave-edge insert. Case studies are performed using sets of selected cutting conditions.
Corresponding milling experiments and finite element analysis are also conducted to verify the
simulation results of the Cellular Automata method. The comparison shows the validity and
advantages of the proposed method. © 2008, Inderscience Publishers. (7 refs.)Main Heading:

Abstract:
Based on the experiments, the energy loss from wave breaking
ε<sub>ed</sub>, the bubble plume penetration depth z<sub>b</sub>, the rate of air
entrainment Q(z), and the turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate ε<sub>T</sub>(z) are
estimated in this study. As a consequence, a simple bubble size spectrum model N(a, z) is
proposed and the rate of energy dissipation due to air bubble entrainment and bubble fragment
Hinze scale and bubble size spectrum are investigated under different sea states. It is indicated that
the rate of energy dissipation due to air bubble entrainment ranges from 0.1 to 0 6 in low and
moderate sea states, but may be negligible in the high sea state. Bubble fragment Hinze scale
downshifts to the lower-frequency band as wind speed increases. Bubble size spectrum not only
depends on the rate of air entrainment, the breaking rate, and the turbulent kinetic energy
dissipation rate, but also strongly on the wind and sea state. (32 refs.)

Abstract: Caulerpa racemosa was extracted with the combined procedure of neutral protease and
boiling water to yield a water-soluble polysaccharide coded as CRP. The obtained C. racemosa
polysaccharide (CRP) was fractionated with DEAE-52 cellulose, which led to two soluble
polysaccharide fractions designated as CRPF1 and CRPF2. CRP, CRPF1, and CRPF2 were
chemically determined and their antitumor activity was assayed. Results showed that they were all
mixtures composed of sulfated polysaccharide with 3.9-7.9% uronic acid and protein, and had
similar amino acid composition, but CRP was more than CRPF1 and CRPF2 in total sugar and
uronic acid content, and less in sulfate group content. Two main sugars, glucose (Glu, 56.8%) and
galactose (Gal, 31.8%), of CRP were enriched to CRPF2 (Glu, 89.1%) and CRPF1 (Gal, 99.2%)
respectively; Bioassay indicated that all CRP had strong antitumor activity in both in vitro and in
vivo, and its inhibition rate of K562 cells in vitro at the concentration of 6.0-10.0 mg
mL-<sup>1</sup> and of H22 tumor transplanted in mice at a dose of 100 mg kg-<sup>1</sup>
day were 59.5-83.8% (48 h) and 53.9% (14 days), respectively. Moreover, at a lower dose
(0.05-0.2 mg mL-<sup>1</sup>) and longer time (72 h), CRP exhibited stronger inhibition effect
on K562 cells than CRPF1 and CRPF2. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. (20 refs.)Main

Abstract: In a competitive global market with rapidly changing markets and particular customers,
technological innovation (TI) is a major requirement for business success. Little empirical study
has examined the relationship between organizational structure (OS) and TI performance. Based
on the literature of TI and OS, this study explores the effects of OS variables upon TI success in
Chinese automobile firms. This study considers five dimensions of OS, such as, hierarchical layers,
locus of decision-making, the degree of formalization, internal boundary and external boundary
with customers and suppliers. A research framework is built to examine relationships among the
five aspects of OS and TI performance in Chinese automobile industry, and a contingency
approach is taken by examining the moderating effects of firm size. Multiple Regression results
show that the layers, formalization, internal and external boundary dimensions have significant
influences on TI performance, whereas locus of decision-making hasn't significant influence on TI
performance. Subgroup analysis reveals that these main effects, but hierarchical layers by way of
an exception, are moderated by firm size. (22 refs.)Main Heading: InnovationControlled terms:

Abstract: A two-dimensional dual-mesh hybrid numerical method is used to investigate some
small scale phenomena in double-diffusive convection flows at high Rayleigh number. With a
horizontal temperature gradient, the interface of the two-layer stratified system becomes tilted and
wavy, resulting in two typical flow patterns. The quasi-steady flow pattern is scattered with
abundant salt fingers and hook-like plumes, which agree well with experimental data available in
the literature qualitatively. It is found that three-dimensional modeling should be carried out in
order to have better agreement with experimental data. In addition, the stratified system is found
to be sensitive to the buoyancy ratio. (18 refs.)Main Heading: Flow patternsControlled terms:

Abstract: Numerical scheme of the generalized finite spectral method is extended to finite
spectral method. The method is also of high order accuracy. The established numerical method is
validated by applications to the Burgers equation (nonlinear convection-diffusion problem) and
KdV equation (single solitary and 2-solitary wave problems), where analytical solutions are
available for comparison. Numerical results show that using suitable value of the local parameter,
l, the proposed method can be applied to simulate wave propagation problems with even higher
accuracy than that of the generalized finite spectral method. (14 refs.)Main Heading: Spectrum

Abstract: Different from other research work focusing on network-wide traffic, the traffic we
focus on for analysis is that of a traffic state viewed from a router's interior. In this paper, at first, a
kind of Port-to-Port traffic in a router is introduced, which we call IF flow. IF flows can amplify
the ratio of attack traffic to normal traffic. Then RLS (recursive least square) filter is used to
predict IF flows. After that, a statistical method using residual filtered process is proposed to
detect anomalies. Finally we respectively apply the method to three types of traffics: IF flows,
input links and output links within a router, and compare the anomaly detection results using ROC
curves. Results show that IF flows are more powerful than input links and output links in DDoS
attacks detection. © 2008 IEEE. (13 refs.)Main Heading: Curve fittingControlled terms:

Publisher: Science Press
Abstract: The optimum thickness of metallic thin film utilized to support the surface plasmon
resonance (SPR) has been investigated, based on the characteristics of electromagnetic field
energy distributing in the film and its compound permittivity. It was shown that the optimum film
thickness is related to the wavelength of exciting light and the refractive index (RI) of the metallic
thin film. In this paper, a mathematical expression has been established to describe their
relationship, and verified in the experiment. Our theoretical analysis is also consistent with
previous experimental results. When the SPR sensor is employed in angular interrogation, in order
to obtain highest sensitivity, the optimum thickness of metallic thin film can be deduced from the
wavelength of the exciting light and the imaginary part of the film RI, or be obtained with the
center wavelength of the exciting light and imaginary part of RI when the sensor is utilized in
wavelength interrogation. (15 refs.)

Abstract: Heavy axial forgings made by conventional methods have obvious fibrous tissue in the
axial direction, leading to the anisotropy of mechanical properties. The forging method with
horizontal V-shaped anvils (HVA) is introduced to control fibrous tissue flow direction, to improve
the anisotropy of mechanical properties of axial forgings. The forging method is superior to the
common flat anvils (FA) forging method in inner stress states, metal tissue, overall properties and
geometrical shapes of forgings. Qualitative physical simulation and pilot production for the HVA
forging method are conducted, verifying the fact that the HVA forging method is an effective
process to control the mechanical properties of axial forgings. The HVA forging method may
reduce the anisotropy of the mechanical properties of axial forgings and increase their uniformity
by 5-50%. (7 refs.)Main Heading: ForgingsControlled terms: Anisotropy - Biomechanics Computer simulation - Crystallography - Forging - Forging machines - Mechanical properties Metals - Models - Numerical methods - Pilot plants - Stresses - ToolsUncontrolled terms: Axial

interval intuitionistic fuzzy set, and then the evaluation information of alternative as to attribute is
aggregated into intuitionistic fuzzy evaluation information. Interval intuitionistic fuzzy evaluation
reflects three information of alternative, i.e. affirmative interval, denial interval and neutral
interval. Then we gain the order relation of intuitionistic fuzzy evaluation information utilizing the
score function and accuracy function, and obtain further the alternatives' order relation. ©

Abstract: This paper presents a performance optimization of solar multi-stage flash (MSF)
desalination process using Pinch technology. Three different situations were studied by using
pinch analysis in this paper, respectively. Firstly, the distilled water is not discharged in each
middle stage. Secondly, the distilled water is discharged in each stage. Thirdly, the distilled water
is discharged every 5 stages. Pinch charts at different situations are given. At the same stage
temperature difference (2 k) and pinch point temperature difference (2 k), the first situation has a
higher gain output rate (GOR), about 17.5, and the second and third have lower GOR, around 9.
However, GOR is easily influenced by abnormal stage temperature difference at the first situation,
and but not in the second and third. The GOR rests on the working temperature range of MSF and
the sum of both the maximum stage temperature difference and pinch point temperature difference.
To enhance the GOR, it is suggested that we should use the wide working temperature range of
MSF, not pumped out the distilled water at middle stages, and keep the same stage temperature
difference without fluctuate. © 2008. (16 refs.)Main Heading: DesalinationControlled terms:

Abstract: The occurrence of algal bloom has threatened the water quality of Taihu Lake that
provides drinking water for millions of people in the eastern Chinese city of Wuxi, Jiangsu
Province. Chlorophyll a presented in living phytoplankton is a very important ecological and
environmental parameter of waters and it is usually used as indicator of the algal bloom. To assess
changes in chlorophyll a concentration distributions before an algal bloom in Taihu Lake on May
29, 2007, a linear model was established between the radio of band 1 (620-670nm) to band 2
(841-876nm) of the MODIS medium-resolution bands and the in situ measurements of chlorophyll
a concentration. The distributions of chlorophyll a concentration are mapped. The phytoplankton
patches are evenly distributed over the Taihu Lake during March 2007, while the patches are
confined to north part of the lake along the bank during May 2007, including Meiliang Bay where
the water supply of Wuxi city is. This study demonstrates that the moderately high resolution of
MODIS/Terra 250-m data is useful for monitoring the chlorophyll a distribution in small inland

Abstract: A new strategy for fabricating a sensitivity-enhanced glucose biosensor was presented,
based on multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNT), Pt nanoparticles (PtNP) and sol-gel of chitosan
(CS)/silica organic-inorganic hybrid composite. PtNP-CS solution was synthesized through the
reduction of PtCl<inf>6</inf><sup>2-</sup> by NaBH<inf>4</inf> at room temperature.
Benefited from the amino groups of CS, a stable PtNP gel was obtained, and a CNT-PtNP-CS
solution was prepared by dispersing CNT functionalized with carboxylic groups in PtNP-CS
solution. The CS/silica hybrid sol-gel was produced by mixing methyltrimethoxysilane (MTOS)
with the CNT-PtNP-CS solution. Then, with the immobilization of glucose oxidase (GOD) into
the sol-gel, the glucose biosensor of GOD-CNT-PtNP-CS-MTOS-GCE was fabricated. The
properties of resulting glucose biosensor were measured by electrochemical impedance
spectroscopy (EIS) and cyclic voltammetry (CV). In phosphate buffer solutions (PBS, pH 6.8),
nearly interference free determination of glucose was realized at low applied potential of 0.1 V,
with a wide linear range of 1.2 × 10<sup>-6</sup> to 6.0 × 10<sup>-3</sup> M,
low detection limit of 3.0 × 10<sup>-7</sup> M, high sensitivity of 2.08 μA
mM<sup>-1</sup>, and a fast response time (within 5 s). The results showed that the biosensor
provided the high synergistic electrocatalytic action, and exhibited good reproducibility, long-term
stability. Subsequently, the novel biosensor was applied for the determination of glucose in human
serum sample, and good recovery was obtained (in the range of 95-104%). © 2007 Elsevier

Abstract: Atmospheric correction of Hyperion imagery over aquatic environments is generally
more demanding than over land because the signal from the water column is small. In this paper,
an atmospheric correction algorithm designed for the Hyperion hyperspectral imagery based on
the analysis of the atmospheric correction algorithm of FLAASH and the algorithm adopted by
MODIS imagery. It makes use of band 111 and band 149 of the Hyperion hyper-spectral imagery
to obtain the type of aerosol, then applied it to the near-infrared and visible light wave bands,
thereby the atmospheric correction of the whole imagery is realized. The Hyperion hyper-spectral
imagery applied the algorithm referred above is suitable to monitor the turbid estuary water.

Abstract: Spatial model of annual weed seed dispersal, in this article, was theoretically derived.
According to the requirements of building the spatial model, we designed and done an indoor
experiment of weed seed dispersal by wind. In the experiment, the seeds of Bromus sterilis were
released at 100 cm height under different wind velocity conditions. Based on the experimental
data, the spatial models of seed dispersal of the weed species were built, which were divided into
three types according to the coefficient β < 0, β = 0, β > 0. The results
showed that dispersal of annual weed seed in any direction obeyed an approximate Gaussian
distribution; under the experimental conditions, spatial distribution type of weed seed dispersal
changed with variation of wind velocity. Well-known Howard et al.'s model (Howard et al., 1991)
of Bromus sterilis seed dispersal is an especial example of the model built in this article. The
result of model analysis indicated that the distribution type described by Howard's model was
similar to that of seed dispersal of the weed species at the height of 100 cm under the condition of
lower wind velocity (about 2.18 m/s). Using CA simulation analysis we found that mean control
agent applying to a cell with weed should have a decrease with an increase of wind velocity to
prevent weed with the initial configuration from spreading, which implicated less herbicide needs
spraying in every cell with weed on average when wind velocity increases. © 2007 Elsevier

Abstract: Total suspended particles (TSP), collected during June 2002 to July 2003 in
Guangzhou, a typical economically developed city in South China, were analyzed for the organic
compound compositions using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Over 140
organic compounds were detected in the aerosols and grouped into different classes including
n-alkanes, hopanoids, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, alkanols, fatty acids, dicarboxylic acids
excluding oxalic acid, polyols/polyacids, lignin products, phytosterols, phthalates and
water-soluble sugars. The total amounts of the identified organic compounds including unresolved
complex mixture (UCM) ranged from 3112 ng/m<sup>3</sup> in spring to
5116 ng/m<sup>3</sup> in winter, comprising on seasonal average 2.8% of TSP. Primary
organic compounds peaked in winter although there are no heating systems burning fuels in
Guangzhou. The highest saccharide levels occurred in fall due to agricultural activities. This study
demonstrated that utilization of fossil fuels, biomass burning, soil resuspension and plastic/refuse
burning are the major contributors to the identified organic compounds in the urban atmosphere of
South China. © 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. (58 refs.)Main Heading: Atmospheric

Abstract: A biocompatible nanohybrid material (clay/AuCS) based on clay, chitosan and gold
nanoparticles was explored. The material could provide a favorable microenvironment for proteins
to realize the direct electron transfer on glassy carbon electrodes (GCE). Myoglobin (Mb), as a
model protein to investigate the nanohybrid, was immobilized between the clay/AuCS film and
another clay layer. Mb in the system exhibited a pair of well-defined and quasi-reversible redox
peaks at -0.160 V (vs. saturated Ag/AgCl electrode) in 0.1 M PBS (pH 7.0), corresponding to its
heme Fe<sup>III</sup>/Fe<sup>II</sup> redox couples. UV-vis spectrum suggested that Mb
retained its native conformation in the system. Basal plane spacing of clay obtained by X-ray
diffraction (XRD) indicated that there was an intercalation-exfoliation-restacking process among
Mb, AuCS and clay during the modified film drying. Excellent biocatalytic activity of Mb in the
modified system was exemplified by the reduction of hydrogen peroxide and nitrite. The linear
range of H<inf>2</inf>O<inf>2</inf> determination was from 3.9 × 10<sup>-5</sup> to
3.0 × 10<sup>-3</sup> M with a detection limit of 7.5 μM based on the signal to noise
ratio of 3. The kinetic parameters such as α (charge transfer coefficient), k<inf>s</inf>
(electron transfer rate constant) and K<inf>m</inf> (Michaelis-Menten constant) were evaluated
to be 0.55, 2.66 ± 0.15 s<sup>-1</sup> and 5.10 mM, respectively. © 2008 Elsevier

Abstract: This paper presents a groove reconstruction method based on the local rule of Cellular
Automata (CA). A local rule for groove reconstruction is proposed to design and optimize the
groove of milling insert. The insert is firstly divided into a large number of cells that typically
form a regular grid over the domain. The domain consists of regular square cells with discrete
variables and the discrete CA model is built. As the cells in the CA domain only interact with their
neighboring cells when performing local computations, the governing equation for the whole
domain is not necessary. Then the states of cells are modified according to the local rule applied.
The state of the entire system is updated based on the state of the cell and its neighboring cells.
Collectively, these cells' states define the state of the entire domain, and the groove can be
reconstructed according to the state of the domain. The reconstructed groove is tested by a FEM
simulation. The simulation results show that the reconstructed groove has a satisfied performance
on the stress field. Copyright © 2007 by ASME. (11 refs.)Main Heading: Milling
