In this paper, we analyze the generalized self-shrinking generator newly proposed in [8]. Some properties of this generator are described and an equivalent definition is derived, after which two attacks are developed to evaluate its security. The first attack is an improved clock-guessing attack using short keystream with the filter function (vector G) known. The complexity of this attack is O(...

Kinetics of the chemical leaching of chalcocite from a low-grade copper ore in a ferric sulfate medium was investigated using the constrained least square optimization technique. The experiments were carried out for different particle sizes in both the reactor and column at constant Eh, pH, and temperature. The leaching rate increased with increase in the temperature. About 50% of the Cu recove...

We present four continuations of the critical nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS) beyond the singularity: (1) a sub-threshold power continuation, (2) a shrinking-hole continuation for ring-type solutions, (3) a vanishing nonlinear-damping continuation and (4) a complex Ginzburg–Landau (CGL) continuation. Using asymptotic analysis, we explicitly calculate the limiting solutions beyond the singu...
