Processing map for hot working of as extruded AZ31B magnesium alloy

The deformation behavior of AZ31B magnesium alloy as extruded under hot compression conditions was characterized in the temperature range of 200 - 400 ℃ and strain rate range of 0. 001 - 1 s^-1. The processing maps were obtained at different strains. The results show that the map exhibits flow instabilities as two domains. The domain at beyond 300 ℃ and strain rate of 1 s^-1 appears with a peak efficiency of power dissipation about 56% occurring. This domain is expected to happen in a hot process, such as hot rolling, hot extrusion and hot forging. There is high efficiency of power dissipation at temperature beyond 350 ℃ and strain rate 0. 001 s^-1. Such domains suggest the occurrence of superplastic deformation.

A dimension map for molecular aggregates

A pair of gyradius ratios, defined from the principal radii of gyration, are used to generate a dimension map that describes the geometry of molecular aggregates in water and in organic solvents. Molecular dynamics simulations were performed on the aggregation of representative biomolecules and polyaromatic compounds to demonstrate application of the dimension map. It was shown that molecular aggregate data on the dimension map were bounded by two boundary curves, and that the map could be separated into three regions representing three groups of structures: one-dimensional rod-like structures; two-dimensional planar structures or short-cylinder-like structures; and three-dimensional sphere-like structures. Examining the location of the aggregates on the dimension map and how the location changes with solvent type and solute material parameter provides a simple yet effective way to infer the aggregation manner and to study solubility and mechanism of aggregation.

Optimization of neural network model using modified bat-inspired algorithm

The success of an artificial neural network (ANN) strongly depends on the variety of the connection weights and the network structure. Among many methods used in the literature to accurately select the network weights or structure in isolate; a few researchers have attempted to select both the weights and structure of ANN automatically by using metaheuristic algorithms. This paper proposes modified bat algorithm with a new solution representation for both optimizing the weights and structure of ANNs. The algorithm, which is based on the echolocation behaviour of bats, combines the advantages of population-based and local search algorithms. In this work, ability of the basic bat algorithm and some modified versions which are based on the consideration of the personal best solution in the velocity adjustment, the mean of personal best and global best solutions through velocity adjustment and the employment of three chaotic maps are investigated. These modifications are aimed to improve the exploration and exploitation capability of bat algorithm. Different versions of the proposed bat algorithm are incorporated to handle the selection of the structure as well as weights and biases of the ANN during the training process. We then use the Taguchi method to tune the parameters of the algorithm that demonstrates the best ability compared to the other versions. Six classifications and two time series benchmark datasets are used to test the performance of the proposed approach in terms of classification and prediction accuracy. Statistical tests demonstrate that the proposed method generates some of the best results in comparison with the latest methods in the literature. Finally, our best method is applied to a real-world problem, namely to predict the future values of rainfall data and the results show satisfactory of the method.     

Efficient and secure data hiding in encrypted images: A new approach using chaos

ABSTRACT

The recent trends in technology have made it possible to reproduce and share digital media more easily and more rapidly. This leads to the problem of exploiting the media illegitimately. To alleviate this problem, many cryptographic techniques are used to secure the data by encrypting them. However, the cloaked form of encrypted data attracts the intruder and shows the way to malicious attacks. Due to this, in recent times steganography has drawn more attention to secure the data. This article presents a new technique that embeds data in intermediate significant bit (ISB) and least significant bit (LSB) planes of the cover image. The method employs chaotic maps to generate random locations to hide the data bits as well as permutation order to encrypt the cover image. The cover image is first encrypted by applying permutation order, then embedding is carried out on the random locations generated. After embedding, the decrypted cover image is transmitted. This method provides two-level security in extracting the hidden data. Experimental outcomes (PSNR, MSE, NAE, and NCC) confirm that the method is proficient. The randomness of the values generated by chaotic maps is assessed by the NIST standard test suite.
