Improved Cryptanalysis of HFERP: Unseen Implications of the Simple Attack

April 13, 2024
Author(s)
Max Cartor, Ryann Cartor, Hiroki Furue, Daniel Smith-Tone
In this paper we introduce a new attack on the multivariate encryption scheme HFERP, a big field scheme including an extra variable set, additional equations of the UOV or Rainbow shape as well as additional random polynomials. Our attack brings several

An Adaptable AI Assistant for Network Management

This paper presents a network management AI assistant built with Large Language Models. It adapts at runtime to the network state and specific platform, leveraging techniques like prompt engineering, document retrieval, and Knowledge Graph integration. The

Comparison of Flow Measurement Devices for Large Fire Experiments

April 12, 2024
Author(s)
Giovanni Di Cristina Torres, Rodney Bryant
Bi-directional probes are utilized throughout fire research and testing to measure fire induced flows due to their ability to measure flow which changes direction, and to withstand hostile environments. However, they are not available commercially and

Collision-resolved pressure sensing

April 11, 2024
Author(s)
Daniel Carney, Daniel Barker, Thomas W. LeBrun, David Moore, Jacob Taylor
Heat and pressure are ultimately transmitted via quantized degrees of freedom, like gas particles and phonons. While a continuous Brownian description of these noise sources is adequate to model measurements with relatively long integration times

Dielectric Characterization of H2O and CO2 Uptake by Polyethylenimine Films

April 10, 2024
Author(s)
Jan Obrzut, Jennifer Clark, Avery Baumann, Jack F. Douglas
This study investigates the dielectric properties of branched polyethylenimine (PEI) films in relation to their interaction with moisture and CO2. The dielectric measurements were carried out using a non-contact resonant microwave cavity testing method

Investigation of melt pool dynamics and solidification microstructures of laser melted Ti-6Al-4V powder using X-ray synchrotron imaging

April 10, 2024
Author(s)
Nicholas Derimow, Madelyn Madrigal-Camacho, Orion Kafka, Jake Benzing, Edward Garboczi, Samuel J. Clark, Suveen Mathaudhu, Nik Hrabe
Titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) is widely used in additive manufacturing (AM) industry. However, as laser powder-bed fusion (PBF-L) additive manufacturing (AM) advances towards reliable production of titanium parts, a thorough understanding of the process

Fermi-Level Pinning in ErAs Nanoparticles Embedded in III-V Semiconductors

April 9, 2024
Author(s)
Garnett W. Bryant, Ruiqi Hu, Dai Ho, Quang To, Anderson Janotti
Embedding rare-earth pnictide (RE-V) nanoparticles into III-V semiconductors enables unique optical, electrical, and thermal properties, with applications in THz photoconductive switches, tunnel junctions, and thermoelectric devices. Despite the high

Post-Quantum Cryptography, and the Quantum Future of Cybersecurity

April 9, 2024
Author(s)
Yi-Kai Liu, Dustin Moody
We review the current status of efforts to develop and deploy post-quantum cryptography on the Internet. Then we suggest specific ways in which quantum technologies might be used to enhance cybersecurity in the near future and beyond. We focus on two goals

Precision Calcination Mechanism of CaCO 3 to High-Porosity Nanoscale CaO CO 2 Sorbent Revealed by Direct In Situ Observations

April 5, 2024
Author(s)
Jenny Martinez, Jenna Wardini, Xueli Zheng, Lauren Moghimi, Jason Rakowsky, Jonathan Means, Huiming Guo, Ivan Kuzmenko, Jan Ilavsky, Fan Zhang, Pratik Dholabhai, Leora Dresselhaus-Marais, William Bowman
Deploying energy storage and carbon capture at scale is hindered by the substantial endothermic penalty of decomposing CaCO3 to CaO and CO2, and the rapid loss of CO2 absorption capacity by CaO sorbent particles due to sintering at the high requisite

Online Measurement for Parameter Discovery in Fused Filament Fabrication

April 3, 2024
Author(s)
Jake Read, Jonathan Seppala, Filippos Tourlomousis, James Warren, Nicole Bakker, Neil Gershenfeld
Abstract To describe a new method for the automatic generation of process parameters for fused filament fabrication (FFF) across varying machines and materials. We use an instrumented extruder to fit a function that maps nozzle pressures across varying

Ultrasensitive sequencing of STR markers utilizing unique molecular identifiers and the SiMSen-Seq method
