Architectural Model for Evaluating Space Communication Networks

[ANGLES] The space exploration endeavor started in 1957 with the launch and operation of the first manmade satellite, the URSS Sputnik 1. Since then, multiple space programs have been developed, pushing the limits of technology and science but foremost unveiling the mysteries of the universe. In all these cases, the need for flexible and reliable communication systems has been primordial, allowing the return of collected science data and, when necessary, ensuring the well-being and safety of astronauts. To that end, multiple space communication networks have been globally deployed, be it through geographically distributed ground assets or through space relay satellites. Until now most of these systems have relied upon mature technology standards that have been adapted to the specific needs of particular missions and customers. Nevertheless, current trends in the space programs suggest that a shift of paradigm is needed: an Internet-like space network would increase the capacity and reliability of an interplanetary network while dramatically reducing its overall costs. In this context, the System Architecting Paradigm can be a good starting point. Through its formal decomposition of the system, it can help determine the architecturally distinguishing decisions and identify potential areas of commonality and cost reduction. This thesis presents a general framework to evaluate space communication relay systems for the near Earth domain. It indicates the sources of complexity in the modeling process, and discusses the validity and appropriateness of past approaches to the problem. In particular, it proposes a discussion of current models vis-a-vis the System Architecting Paradigm and how they fit into tradespace exploration studies. Next, the thesis introduces a computational performance model for the analysis and fast simulation of space relay satellite systems. The tool takes advantage of a specifically built-in rule-based expert system for storing the constitutive elements of the architecture and perform logical interactions between them. Analogously, it uses numerical models to assess the network topology over a given timeframe, perform physical layer computations and calculate plausible schedules for the overall system. In particular, it presents a newly developed heuristic scheduler that guarantees prioritization of specific missions and services while ensuring manageable computational times.

A Study on the Factors That Influence the Consumers Trust on Ecommerce Adoption

The development of electronic commerce is characterized with anonymity, uncertainty, lack of control and potential opportunism. Therefore, the success of electronic commerce significantly depends on providing security and privacy for its consumers sensitive personal data. Consumers lack of acceptance in electronic commerce adoption today is not merely due to the concern on security and privacy of their personal data, but also lack of trust and reliability of Web vendors. Consumers trust in online transactions is crucial for the continuous growth and development of electronic commerce. Since Business to Consumer (B2C) ecommerce requires the consumers to engage the technologies, the consumers face a variety of security risks. This study addressed the role of security, privacy and risk perceptions of consumers to shop online in order to establish a consensus among them. The analyses provided descriptive frequencies for the research variables and for each of the study s research constructs. In addition, the analyses were completed with factor analysis and Pearson correlation coefficients. The findings suggested that perceived privacy of online transaction on trust is mediated by perceived security, and consumers trust in online transaction is significantly related with the trustworthiness of Web vendors. Also, consumers trust is negatively associated with perceived risks in online transactions. However, there is no significant impact from perceived security and perceived privacy to trust in online transactions.

The Effect of Market Power on Bank’s Net Interest Margin: The Moderating Role of Financial Access

The research focuses on determining the effect of commercial bank’s market power on net interest margin and the moderating role of financial access. The study uses annual data of 33 commercial banks in Indonesia from 2012 to 2019 based on the category of State-Owned Commercial Banks and National Private Commercial Banks. The data is obtained from secondary data, using financial reports published by commercial banks. The data is analyzed using moderated regression analysis to estimate two models, basic model is used to estimate the effect of market power on net interest margin, while the interaction model is used to estimate the moderating effect of financial access. Market power was measured using the Lerner index of each bank. Financial access was measured by the number of branches and the availability of electronic banking channels such as mobile banking, internet banking, and digital branch. The results show that the increase in commercial bank’s market power significantly increases net interest margin. Other results also show that branch and mobile banking &amp; internet banking significantly moderate the effect of market power on the net interest margin, while the digital branch is not significantly moderating the relationship between market power and net interest margin.

TRAF3IP2 regulated by FOXO4 affects fibroblast proliferation, migration, and extracellular matrix deposition in keloid through the TGF‐β1/Smad pathway

Abstract Background Keloids are "tumor‐like" scars that grow beyond the boundary of injury. Its pathogenesis is complex. This paper will discuss the pathogenesis of keloid from the transcriptional regulation mechanism of TRAF3IP2. Methods IL‐17 was utilized to induce human keloid fibroblasts (KFs) and normal dermal fibroblasts. With the application of RT‐qPCR and Western blot, TRAF3IP2 expression was detected. Subsequently, the expression of TRAF3IP2 was interfered by cell transfection and the effects of interfering TRAF3IP2 on cell proliferative rate, migration rate, and extracellular matrix were assessed with CCK‐8, Wound Healing, immunofluorescence, and Western blot techniques. Proliferation, migration, and (ECM) deposition were detected by JASPAR software predicted the binding sites of transcription factors FOXO4 and TRAF3IP2 promoters. The relationship between FOXO4 and TRAF3IP2 was verified by Dual luciferase activity assay and ChIP. Finally, the expression of TRAF3IP2 and FOXO4 was interfered simultaneously to further explore the mechanism. Results TRAF3IP2 was enhanced in IL‐17 induced KFs. Interference with TRAF3IP2 imparted suppressive effects on the proliferation, migration, and ECM deposition of KFs. FOXO4 could inhibit TRAF3IP2 transcription, and interference with FOXO4 reversed the effect of TRAF3IP2 down‐regulation on KFs via TGF‐β1/Smad pathway. Conclusion TRAF3IP2 was regulated by FOXO4 and affected fibroblast proliferation, migration, and ECM deposition in keloid through the TGF‐β1/Smad pathway.

Carbonate Deposition and Sequence Stratigraphy of the Terminal Cambrian Grand Cycle in the Southern Appalachians, U.S.A.

The cessation of shale and carbonate deposition of the Conasauga Group grand cycles (Middle to Upper Cambrian) and the establishment of the widespread peritidal carbonate deposition of the Knox Group (Upper Cambrian to Lower Ordovician) represent a prominent change in sedimentation along the early Paleozoic passive continental margin in the southern Appalachians.To evaluate the causes for this change, this study focuses on the Maynardville Formation, which is the uppermost carbonate unit of the Conasauga Group.The Maynardville consists of: (1) a lower subtidal facies succession, which is underlain by the Nolichucky Shale and resembles the rest of the Conasauga Group carbonate deposits; and (2) an upper peritidal facies succession, which is conformably overlain by similar peritidal deposits of the Copper Ridge Dolomite (Knox Group).Deposition of shale and subtidal carbonate took place in deep-ramp (Nolichucky) to shallowramp, subtidal-shoal, and lagoonal settings (lower Maynardville).The carbonate ramp was westward sloping toward the Conasauga intrashelf shale basin.To the east, the ramp was linked to a broad, semiarid carbonate tidal flat encompassing a variety of peritidal environments (upper Maynardville and Copper Ridge).The Maynardville is a shallowing-upward succession that formed by carbonate platform aggradation and basinward progradation.The transition between the Maynardville and the Copper Ridge Dolomite is within a conformable peritidal carbonate succession that contains common siliciclastic sand-size detritus.This interval is interpreted as a sequence boundary correlative with the craton-wide late Steptoean (Dresbachian-Franconian or Sauk II-Sauk III) unconformity.The change from a Conasauga to a Knox depositional style may be related to distinct stages in passive-margin evolution.The end of grand-cycle deposition in the early Late Cambrian is coincident with the cessation of tectonic activity along extensional features (an intracratonic graben and other fault systems), and marks the transition into a mature-passive-margin setting.The mature margin was characterized by decreased rates of thermal subsidence, which, coupled with the infilling of the Conasauga intrashelf basin, favored shallow-water carbonate deposition.The final stabilization of the margin is reflected in the deposition of the thick peritidal carbonate strata of the Knox Group.

Efficient Simulation and Rendering of Sub-surface Scattering

In this thesis, a new improved V-Ray subsurface scattering shader based on the improved diffusion theory is proposed. The new shader supports the better dipole and the quantized diffusion reflectance model for layered translucent materials. These new implemented models build on previous diffusion BSSRDFs and in the case of quantized diffusion uses an extended source function for the material layer. One of the main contributions and significant improvement over V-Ray’s existing subsurface scattering shader is the front and back subsurface scattering separation. This was achieved by dividing the illumination map that is used to calculate each shading’s point color, in two parts: the front part that comes of front lighting and the back one that comes of back lighting. Thus, the subsurface scattering layer can be divided in its consisting parts and each of them can be controlled, weighted and used independently. Finally, the project’s outcome is a new V-Ray material that provides all the above improvements in an intuitive, practical and efficient shader with several intuitive algorithm and light map controls, where artists can create subsurface scattering effects through three subsurface scattering layers.

Fault-tolerant control of aircraft rudder surfaces based on pseudo-inverse planning and sliding mode control

This paper combines pseudo-inverse planning and sliding mode control to propose a new fault-tolerant control method.In the case of failure or stuck of the elevator rudder, the remaining rudder surface and the thrust angle of the thrust vectoring engine are reasonably allocated, and the sliding mode control is designed to ensure that the actuator quickly tracks the desired rudder output in the presence of disturbances,thus achieving aircraft's safe control.The simulation results show that this fault-tolerant control method makes the aircraft track the desired attitude angle better under elevator rudder failure, and the pseudo-inverse planning is effective.

Disaster management in supply chains: a systematic literature review with bibliometric and content analysis

Disasters have a severe impact on all relevant stakeholders involved in the supply chains (SCs); however, a systematic examination of disaster management in the SCs domain is still lacking. The objective of this paper is to conduct an analysis of the academic literature on Supply Chain Disaster Management (SCDM). A systematic literature review of 787 papers was conducted that met the inclusion criteria from mainstream academic databases published between 2015 and 2024, incorporating bibliometric, network, and content analysis methods. We then develop a conceptual model that synthesises the themes of disasters management in SCs: impact of disaster, disaster relief approaches, and barriers. Moreover, this review uncovers the specific impacts of different types of disasters on various stages of the SCs and the corresponding response strategies. This study contributes to the research and practice of disaster management in SCs by providing a systematic knowledge structure of the topic and future research directions.
