Evolution of archaeometric studies on ceramics and glass in Ceramic Science and Technology journals: A comparative analysis from BSECV, JECerS and JACerS in the period 2000–2023

As the world embraces a technological revolution on how everyday devices are connected to the internet, users provide sensitive information using the internet which is broken down and distributed as packets throughout the network. Packet sniffers tap to these packets, capable of potentially compromising security and privacy of unsuspecting users. This study aims to put into the test some well-known Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) and observe how they fare against popular packet-sniffing tools such as Wireshark and tcpdump. The varied sniffing methods and techniques from various sniffing tools will provide an evaluation of performance of the intrusion detection systems.[1]  Ansari, S., Rajeev, S. & Chandrashekar, H.

This article examines various methods for evaluating the impact of journals in the ceramic sciences, including the H‐index, journal impact factor (JIF), and the recently introduced MZE‐index (defined by Montazerian–Zanotto–Eckert). We evaluate the performance of 31 reputable journals in ceramic science and technology and find that the JIF and H‐index (which correlate to prolificacy and visibility) rise in tandem with the number of documents (N) each journal publishes. As an alternative metric, the MZE‐index is used to distinguish the journals that stand at, above, or below the average of the field. It aids in better understanding the reputation and visibility of the journals relative to their peers by providing a fairer comparison of journals with different publication records and citation patterns and allowing for a more accurate comparison of their visibility compared to the average of the field. We also argue that beyond the commonly used JIF and H indices, other bibliometric indicators like MZE and peer review based on a journal's established reputation are necessary to determine their quality and choose them as the publication venue.

Analysis of tissue and arterial blood temperatures in the resting human forearm. 1948.

A contact problem is considered in which an elastic half–plane is pressed against a rigid fractally rough surface, whose profile is defined by a Weierstrass series. It is shown that no applied mean pressure is sufficiently large to ensure full contact and indeed there are not even any contact areas of finite dimension — the contact area consists of a set of fractal character for all values of the geometric and loading parameters. A solution for the partial contact of a sinusoidal surface is used to develop a relation between the contact pressure distribution at scale n − 1 and that at scale n . Recursive numerical integration of this relation yields the contact area as a function of scale. An analytical solution to the same problem appropriate at large n is constructed following a technique due to Archard. This is found to give a very good approximation to the numerical results even at small n , except for cases where the dimensionless applied load is large. The contact area is found to decrease continuously with n , tending to a power–law behaviour at large n which corresponds to a limiting fractal dimension of (2 − D ), where D is the fractal dimension of the surface profile. However, it is not a ‘simple’ fractal, in the sense that it deviates from the power–law form at low n , at which there is also a dependence on the applied load. Contact segment lengths become smaller at small scales, but an appropriately normalized size distribution tends to a limiting function at large n . † The authors dedicate this paper to the memory of Dr J. F. Archard, 1918–1989.

An overview of the effect of stirrer design on the mechanical properties of Aluminium Alloy Matrix Composites fabricated by stir casting

Bradley (1932) showed that if two rigid spheres of radii R 1 and R 2 are placed in contact, they will adhere with a force 2πΔ R γ, where R is the equivalent radius R 1 R 1 /( R 1 + R 2 ) and Δγ is the surface energy or ‘work of adhesion’ (equal to γ1+γ2-γ12). Subsequently Johnson et al. (1971) (JKR theory) showed by a Griffith energy argument (assuming that contact over a circle of radius a introduces a surface energy -π a 2 Δγ) how the Hertz equations for the contact of elastic spheres are modifed by surface energy, and showed that the force needed to separate the spheres is equal to (3/2)πΔ R γ, which is independent of the elastic modulus and so appears to be universally applicable and therefore to conflict with Bradley9s answer. The discrepancy was explained by Tabor (1977), who identified a parameter 3 Δγ 2 / 3 / E * 2 / 3 \e governing the transition from the Bradley pull-off force 2π R Δ|γ to the JKR value (3/2)π R Δγ. Subsequently Muller et al. (1980) performed a complete numerical solution in terms of surface forces rather than surface energy, (combining the Lennard–Jones law of force between surfaces with the elastic equations for a half-space), and confirmed that Tabor9s parameter does indeed govern the transition. The numerical solution is repeated more accurately and in greater detail, confirming the results, but showing also that the load–;approach curves become S-shaped for values of μ greater than one, leading to jumps into and out of contact. The JKR equations describe the behaviour well for values of μ of 3 or more, but for low values of μ the simple Bradley equation better describes the behaviour under negative loads.

Pulmonary conductance and elastic recoil relationships in asthma and emphysema.

Scientific journals, as a significant medium for the transformation of scientific and technological achievements, have received widespread attention in recent years. They are not only platforms for the dissemination of scientific information but also crucial venues for researchers to exchange ideas and showcase their research results. However, during the process of translating scientific achievements, scientific journals also face numerous challenges. The increasing frequency of international research collaboration under globalization has made the international influence of journals and issues surrounding open access significant factors affecting the internationalization of scientific achievements; academic misconduct and the loopholes in the peer review system also threaten the credibility of journals. This study utilizes a combination of literature review, case analysis, and expert interviews to discuss the current state of domestic and international scientific journals, with a focus on analyzing the supportive role of scientific journals in scientific and technological innovation activities and the challenges they face in promoting the transformation of scientific achievements. Through quantitative analysis of publication volume, citation frequency, and reader survey data from 200 national scientific journals, this research delves into the impact and dissemination effectiveness of scientific journals and conducts an optimization study on the key aspects of the journal publishing process. The results show that in the process of popularizing and commercializing research findings, scientific journals must strengthen the cultivation of professional ethics for authors and peer reviewers and establish a rigorous academic evaluation system. At the same time, open access policies of journals should be more flexible to meet the needs of different reader demographics. The research provides feasible suggestions for how scientific journals can more effectively serve scientific and technological innovation under the new landscape and has both immediate and long-term significance for enhancing the status and role of scientific journals within the national innovation system.

In this book, the authors introduce and analyze the general situation of China’s scientific and technological journals and research articles, present their overall status in the form of statistical key figures, and study the characteristics of the progress of open science, open science platform and open publishing progress. This work has thus drawn a picture of the transformation of international academic publishing in the open science environment. This Blue Book discusses the development trend of Chinese science journals in the open science environment, so as to provide reference for the founding and enhancement of the world-class scientific and technological journals in China.

Vietnam is on its way to becoming a more developed country and more integrated into the global community. One of the most important key factors for development is science and technology. Scientific publications bring the most up-to-date information to scientists, researchers, and society. The quality of Vietnam’s scientific journals should be increased to international level. Also, the number of high quality articles published in international journals from Vietnam is limited compared to the number of researchers in Vietnam. There is still no Vietnamese journal indexed in Web of Science up to January 2015; while, three journals has been indexed in Scopus. This article discusses the current scenario of scientific and technological journals in Vietnam and the trend of development to international level.
