Order Preserving Encryption (OPE) schemes have been examined to a great extent in the cryptography literature because of their prospective application to database design. OPE is an appealing method for database encryption as it permits to execute sort and range queries in an efficient manner without decrypting the data. Databases such as CryptDB are beginning to employ encryption to guard sensi...

Magnetic clouds are a subset of interplanetary coronal mass ejections characterized by a smooth rotation in the magnetic field direction, which is interpreted as a signature of a magnetic flux rope. Suprathermal electron observations indicate that one or both ends of a magnetic cloud typically remain connected to the Sun as it moves out through the heliosphere. With distance from the axis of th...

Automatic visual surface inspection is a challenging task, which has become important for quality assurance in the last years. Wire rope inspection is a special problem within this field. Usually, the huge and heavy ropes cannot be detached. Thus, an inspection of the ropes must be conducted, while the ropes are in use. The rope surface exhibits various appearance characteristics so that the ex...

The propagation of elastic waves along composite wire rope is considered. The rope is modeled as co-axial layers of cylindrically anisotropic material. Simple kinematical assumptions lead to a ‘‘rod theory’’ for the wire rope, consisting of three coupled onedimensional wave equations. Solutions of these equations are found. Results for a particular aluminum conductor steel reinforced (ACSR) con...

Background: Physical activity has protective effects against the development of depression symptoms for all age groups. Cognitive training and aerobic are lifestyle interventions that have been shown to a positive impact on health, reducing cognitive impairment, delaying onset dementia. Jump rope is one type training. Aerobic effective in improving mood. Objective: This study aims prove effect ...

The behavior of rope-guided conveyances is so complicated that the rope-guided hoisting system hasn't been understood thoroughly so far. In this paper, with user-defined functions loaded, ANSYS FLUENT 14.5 was employed to simulate lateral motion of rope-guided conveyances in two typical kinds of shaft layouts. With rope-guided mine elevator and mine cages taken into account, results show that t...

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of a dance music jump rope exercise on changes Pulmonary Function and body mass index in female overweight subjects in their 20's. [Subjects and Methods] The subjects were randomly assigned to the dance music jump rope exercise group and the stationary cycle exercise group. All subjects have conducted the exercises three times a week...

To study the design method of sectional area and initial tension of wire rope brace of the prestressed braced steel moment frame structure system, theoretical analysis of this structure system is conducted in this paper. The lateral stiffness formula is derived. It reveals the lateral stiffness is related to the lateral stiffness of bare steel moment frame, story height, the distance between co...
