Practical evaluation of encrypted traffic classification based on a combined method of entropy estimation and neural networks

Encrypted traffic classification plays a vital role in cybersecurity as network traffic encryption becomes prevalent. First, we briefly introduce three traffic encryption mechanisms: IPsec, SSL/TLS, and SRTP. After evaluating the performances of support vector machine, random forest, naïve Bayes, and logistic regression for traffic classification, we propose the combined approach of entropy estimation and artificial neural networks. First, network traffic is classified as encrypted or plaintext with entropy estimation. Encrypted traffic is then further classified using neural networks. We propose using traffic packet’s sizes, packet's inter‐arrival time, and direction as the neural network's input. Our combined approach was evaluated with the dataset obtained from the Canadian Institute for Cybersecurity. Results show an improved precision (from 1 to 7 percentage points), and some application classification metrics improved nearly by 30 percentage points.

Positive Effect of Ge Vacancies on Facilitating Band Convergence and Suppressing Bipolar Transport in GeTe‐Based Alloys for High Thermoelectric Performance

Because the intrinsic Ge vacancies in GeTe usually lead to high hole concentration beyond the optimal range, many previous studies tend to consider Ge vacancies as negative effects on increasing the figure of merit ZT of GeTe‐based alloys, and consequently have proposed various approaches to suppress Ge vacancies. However, in this work, it is demonstrated that the Ge vacancies can have great positive effects on enhancing the ZT of GeTe‐based alloys when the hole concentration falls into the optimal range. First, hole concentration of GeTe is reduced close to the optimal range by co‐alloying of Pb and Bi, and then the Ge vacancies are increased by adding excess Te into the Ge_0.8Pb_0.1Bi_0.1Te_1+x. The Ge vacancies can cause lattice shrinkage and promote rhombohedral‐to‐cubic phase transition. As revealed by first‐principle calculations, theoretical simulations, and experimental tests, Ge vacancies can facilitate the band convergence, suppress the bipolar transport at higher temperature range, and reduce the lattice thermal conductivity. Combining these effects, a peak ZT of 1.92 at 637 K and an average ZT of 1.34 within 300–773 K in Ge_0.8Pb_0.1Bi_0.1Te_1.06 can be obtained, demonstrating the great significance of utilizing vacancy‐type defects for enhancing ZT.     

All‐Natural,Degradable, Rolled‐Up Straws Based on Cellulose Micro‐ and Nano‐Hybrid Fibers

Among all the plastic pollution, straws have brought particularly intricate problems since they are single use, consumed in a large volume, cannot be recycled in most places, and can never be fully degraded. To solve this problem, replacements for plastic straws are being developed following with the global trend of plastic straw bans. Nevertheless, none of the available degradable alternatives are satisfactory due to drawbacks including poor natural degradability, high cost, low mechanical performance, and poor water stability. Here, all‐natural degradable straws are designed by hybridizing cellulose nanofibers and microfibers in a binder‐free manner. Straws are fabricated by rolling up the wet hybrid film and sealed by the internal hydrogen bonding formed among the cellulose fibers after drying. The cellulose hybrid straws show exceptional behaviors including 1) excellent mechanical performance (high tensile strength of ≈70 MPa and high ductility with a fracture strain of 12.7%), 2) sufficient hydrostability (10× wet mechanical strength compared to commercial paper straw), 3) low cost, and 4) high natural degradability. Given the low‐cost raw materials, the binder‐free hybrid design based on cellulose structure can potentially be a suitable solution to solve the environmental challenges brought by the enormous usage of plastics straws.

长江下游黑沙洲水道水流特性数值模拟研究

黑沙洲水道为长江下游典型鹅头型分汊河道,2007年实施了黑沙洲水道航道整治一期工程,对其天然洲头部、南水道左槽、南水道心滩中下部等关键部位实施了守护,初步稳定了滩槽格局,改善了航道条件。但南水道心滩低矮,滩体束流作用不强,遇大水年航槽淤积,造成枯水期易出浅碍航。采用数学模型计算了不同流量下滩脊线加高、岸线崩退、左槽封堵3种工况的水流变化,并将其与天然情况进行对比,分析了出浅碍航的主要原因,提出了应对措施,可为二期工程方案的设计提供参考。

Unravelling the precipitation evolutions of AZ80 magnesium alloy during non-isothermal and isothermal processes

The precipitation evolutions of Mg-Al-Zn alloys play essential roles in their mechanical properties,corro-sion performance,formability,plastic deformation mechanisms and texture development.In the present work,the precipitation evolutions of AZ80 magnesium alloy during both non-isothermal and isothermal processes were unraveled by utilizing in situ electrical resistivity monitoring,hardness testing,differen-tial scanning calorimetry and microstructural characterization.The results showed that discontinuous precipitation(DP)and continuous precipitation(CP)occurred competitively during non-isothermal and isothermal processes.The precipitation of dominant 3-Mgi7Ali2 phase during non-isothermal processes was highly dependent on the thermal history.During isothermal processes,the precipitation behavior of AZ80 magnesium alloy could be considered as the functions of holding temperature and time.At lower temperatures,massive DP and CP were gradually formed to equally strengthen the alloy.At higher tem-peratures,the Ostwald coarsening was characterized in the later stages and indicated to slightly soften the alloy.Isothermal time-temperature-precipitation curves and quantitative precipitate evolution were estimated to unravel precipitation characteristics and their strengthening functions.     

3D Printing of Customized Li‐Ion Batteries with Thick Electrodes

The growing demand for rechargeable lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs) with higher capacity in customized geometries underscores the need for new battery materials, architectures, and assembly strategies. Here, the design, fabrication, and electrochemical performance of fully 3D printed LIBs composed of thick semisolid electrodes that exhibit high areal capacity are reported. Specifically, semisolid cathode and anode inks, as well as UV curable packaging and separator inks for direct writing of LIBs in arbitrary geometries are created. These fully 3D printed and packaged LIBs, which are encased between two glassy carbon current collectors, deliver an areal capacity of 4.45 mAh cm^?2 at a current density of 0.14 mA cm^?2, which is equivalent to 17.3 Ah L^?1. The ability to produce high‐performance LIBs in customized form factors opens new avenues for integrating batteries directly within 3D printed objects.
