Now, the route protocols defined in the Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) are constructed in a common assumption which all nodes contained in such networks are trustworthy and cooperative.Once malicious or selfish nodes exist, all route paths built by these protocols must be broken immediately.According to the secure problems within MANET, this paper p

The adhesion work and force of the five types of asphalt to andesite were measured using surface energy and pull-out tests, respectively.Various tests were operated to estimate the high and low-temperature characteristics of the five types of asphalt mixtures: high-temperature rutting, low-temperature bending, indirect tensile creep, and thermal st

Abstract Background Resistance to HER2-targeted therapeutics remains a significant clinical problem in HER2+ breast cancer patients with advanced disease.This may be particularly true for HER2+ patients with basal subtype disease, as recent evidence suggests they receive limited benefit from standard of care HER2-targeted therapies.Identification o

In the present paper, a General Algorithm is applied to the analysis of high-rise structures.This algorithm is to be used as a calculation tool in preliminary design; it allows to define the interaction between closed princess jasmine silhouette and open, straight or curved shear-walls, and the forces exchanged in structures subject to mainly horiz
