Rhombellation: a builder for multi-shell clusters

Rhombellanes are mathematical structures, proposed by us in 2017; they may appear both in periodic crystals or in finite structures. The simplest rhombellane is rbl.5 or K_2.3, the complete bipartite graph. In this paper, rhombellation operation is iteratively applied on three classes of structures: cube, tori and cubic pcu-network, respectively. The structural topological parameters are detailed.     

Controlled Secure Direct Communication Protocol via the Three-Qubit Partially Entangled Set of States

In this paper, we first re-examine the previous protocol of controlled quantum secure direct communication of Zhang et al.’s scheme, which was found insecure under two kinds of attacks, fake entangled particles attack and disentanglement attack. Then, by changing the party of the preparation of cluster states and using unitary operations, we present an improved protocol which can avoid these two kinds of attacks. Moreover, the protocol is proposed using the three-qubit partially entangled set of states. It is more efficient by only using three particles rather than four or even more to transmit one bit secret information. Given our using state is much easier to prepare for multiqubit states and our protocol needs less measurement resource, it makes this protocol more convenient from an applied point of view.     

Mechanical properties of continuous bamboo fiber-reinforced biobased polyamide 11 composites

This study is devoted to the analysis of the properties of continuous bamboo fiber (BF)-reinforced polyamide 11 (PA 11) composites. The SEM observations highlighted continuity between BFs and the polymeric matrix showing a high density of hydrogen bonds. The comparative calorimetric study of the matrix and its composites showed that the crystallinity of PA 11 was not modified by the presence of bamboo fibers. The physical aging observed in PA 11 is no more observed in composites due to physical interactions between PA 11 and BFs. The mechanical properties were investigated by tensile strength and dynamic mechanical analysis. The introduction of BFs enhanced Young's modulus of the matrix by a factor of 10. The presence of BFs also improved the storage shear modulus G′ over the whole temperature range. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2019 , 136, 47623.     

盐酸溶液中Fe3+的水解聚合边界条件

为了模拟Pu⁴⁺水解聚合行为，采用动态光散射法研究了盐酸溶液中Fe³⁺水解聚合边界条件，并采用热力学软件HSC Chemistry 6.0模拟计算了水解聚合过程中一些热力学函数值的变化。结果表明：在Fe³⁺发生水解聚合反应时，溶液中的c₀(H⁺)、c(Fe³⁺)和温度之间存在一定的关联性，提高Fe³⁺浓度和升高温度会促进Fe³⁺水解聚合反应；聚合胶体粒径随着Fe³⁺浓度和温度升高而分布越广，且测得中值粒径在100~1 000 nm。     

基于stackelberg多步博弈的无人机协同搜索路径规划

考虑到现有无人机搜索问题研究中无人机、移动目标仅有一方具有远距离探测能力的设定，已经无法体现出战场环境下双方的博弈关系。针对这一不足，基于stackelberg均衡策略，结合多步预测的思想，提出了stackelberg多步博弈策略，实现了无人机、目标都具有远距离探测能力的博弈搜索。通过建立无人机、目标各自的路径收益函数，使双方能够根据不同时刻的博弈状态选择相对应的函数，实现无人机的动态路径规划。仿真结果表明所提出策略完全适用于该博弈模型，比贪婪策略具有更高的搜索效率，大大提高了目标捕获率。

Eliciting and measuring hesitance in decision-making

Hesitance is an innate human psychological phenomenon pervasive in our daily life. Although it is very complex and still not fully understood, there have been many studies related to this interesting topic. In this study, we proposed two fundamental problems about hesitance: the first is the generating problem, which is related to how to elicit hesitance information from human thinking; the second is the measuring problem, which is related to how to devise effective and reasonable methods to measure hesitance degrees from given hesitance information. With these two fundamental questions, we first discussed and analyzed several examples in real life involving hesitance, showing that it can indeed be recorded and represented. Then we roughly classified the hesitance information into two major classes: static hesitance and dynamic hesitance. Some simple and interesting methods were proposed to elicit hesitance, and more reasonable methods were proposed to measure the hesitance degree from the two classes of hesitance information. All methods that have been discussed in this study try to avoid complexity in every aspect while reserving strictness and reasonability; therefore, the present study provides suitable information for practitioners with different backgrounds.
