Multi-generations Key Pre-distribution's Technique in Wireless Sensor Networks
No full textNetwork future relies nowadays on producing a low-cost and effective network in less cost. One of the most effective network solutions is the Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). Security is the main challenge of this kind of networks where the nodes in such network are restricted by the power consumption due to limited power source. The main factor of WSN security is the key management part which consists of creating, distributing, and using the keys in the network lifecycle. Key Pre-distribution technique is approved to work efficiently to support WSN security. One of the drawbacks of this technique is that it is not supporting renewing and refreshing keys to support multi-generations sensors. In this work we present a novel technique to reproduce new keys from old pre-distributed keys in efficient way to save the power
The Performance of a Cylindrical Microstrip Printed Antenna for TM10 Mode as a Function of Temperature for Different Substrates
No full textA temperature is one of the parameters that have a great effect on the performance of microstrip antennas for TM10 mode at 2.4 GHz frequency range. The effect of temperature on a resonance frequency, input impedance, voltage standing wave ratio, and return loss on the performance of a cylindrical microstrip printed antenna is studied in this paper. The effect of temperature on electric and magnetic fields are also studied. Three different substrate materials RT/duroid-5880 PTFE, K-6098 Teflon/Glass, and Epsilam-10 ceramic-filled Teflon are used for verifying the new model
Fabrication of Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) and CNT Filled PVA Nanofibers by Electro Hydro Jets Spinning
No full textElectrospinning is a versatile tool for the formation of nanofibers from the materials of diverse origin like organic polymers, ceramics, and polymers/ceramics composites. Here we demonstrate the formation of Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) nanofibers with an average diameter in the range of 60 nm to 150 nm. The FTIR data gives the presence of PolyvinylAlcohol (PVA) and their chemical bonding. The structure and the alignment of the nanofibers were observed using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM)

The establishment of a primary spine care practitioner and its benefits to health care reform in the United States
No full textIt is widely recognized that the dramatic increase in health care costs in the United States has not led to a corresponding improvement in the health care experience of patients or the clinical outcomes of medical care. In no area of medicine is this more true than in the area of spine related disorders (SRDs). Costs of medical care for SRDs have skyrocketed in recent years. Despite this, there is no evidence of improvement in the quality of this care. In fact, disability related to SRDs is on the rise. We argue that one of the key solutions to this is for the health care system to have a group of practitioners who are trained to function as primary care practitioners for the spine. We explain the reasons we think a primary spine care practitioner would be beneficial to patients, the health care system and society, some of the obstacles that will need to be overcome in establishing a primary spine care specialty and the ways in which these obstacles can be overcome.https://doi.org/10.1186/2045-709X-19-1
