This work investigates the problem of cache-aided content Secure and demand Private Linear Function Retrieval (SP-LFR), where three constraints are imposed on system: (a) each user is interested in retrieving an arbitrary linear combination files server’s library; (b) library must be kept secure from a wiretapper who obtains signal sent by server; (c) no subset colluding users together can obta...

In this paper, the effect of autofrettage process parameters on the ultimate pressure that functionally graded spherical vessel can tolerate are investigated. FGM properties and autofrettage pressure are considered as important parameters. Assumptions are variation of properties of FGM in radial direction, the residual stress in the absence of Bauschinger effect with the operation of variable m...

Superposition is a powerful program modularization and structuring method for developing parallel and distributed systems by adding new functionality to an algorithm while preserving the original computation The superposition method will thus structure the distributed algorithm in a number of mechanisms on top of the original computation In this paper the derivation using the super position met...

We introduce a kind of bilinear differential equations by generalizing Hirota bilinear operators, and explore when the linear superposition principle can apply to the resulting generalized bilinear differential equations. Together with an algorithm using weights, two examples of generalized bilinear differential equations are computed to shed light on the presented general scheme for constructi...

The analysis of the time evolution of unstable states which are linear superposition of other, observable, states can, in principle, be carried out in two distinct, non-equivalent ways. One of the methods, usually employed for the neutral kaon system, combines the mixing and instability into one single step which then results into unconventional properties of the mass-eigenstates. An alternativ...

A new numerical method for approximating highly oscillatory wave fields as a superposition of Gaussian beams is presented. The method estimates the number of beams and their parameters automatically. This is achieved by an expectation-maximization algorithm that fits real, positive Gaussians to the energy of the highly oscillatory wave fields and its Fourier transform. Beam parameters are furth...

Braided composites have been used widely in many engineering fields where the high mechanical characteristics and light weight properties were important. In order to estimate the mechanical characteristics of the braided composites, the numerical technique is very effective to reduce the testing and production costs. However, if the architecture of fiber bundle is more complex such as 3-D braid...

Classification image and other similar noise-driven linear methods have found increasingly wider applications in revealing psychophysical receptive field structures or perceptual templates. These techniques are relatively easy to deploy, and the results are simple to interpret. However, being a linear technique, the utility of the classification-image method is believed to be limited. Uncertain...
