Towards Climate-Resilient Infrastructures through an Integrated Infrastructure Design Approach
No full textIn the last years, municipalities' role in protecting cities from climate change impacts has increasingly gained attention due to their proximity to the citizens. Although municipalities have the tools to implement mitigation and adaptation strategies, anchoring these strategies will demand multiple interventions in the urban sphere if municipalities execute all these projects through a siloed approach. Multi-interventions will increase energy consumption, generating more C02 emissions, as well as more mobility disruptions. Therefore, municipalities need to design and execute their projects integrally. Through a literature review and Rotterdam Municipality serving as a case study, this research explores both the theoretical and practicality of how municipalities can effectively apply an integrated infrastructure design approach (IIDA) to enhance climate-resilient infrastructures (CRI). The research found some of CRI's key characteristics and seven implementation lenses of IIDA at the municipal level: functional, transdisciplinary, synergistic, intervention scale, technological, time and finance.Furthermore, a thematic analysis of 22 interviews revealed 19 key factors that influence a municipality's effectiveness in using an integrated design approach. These factors were grouped into six dimensions: human capacity, organisational culture, governance, information and knowledge, project process development, and finance. These findings have been translated into a strategic roadmap, providing practical guidance for municipalities to effectively implement IIDA. The roadmap suggests municipalities need individuals with soft skills such as holistic vision, proactivity, and collaboration. Additionally, fostering an innovative and collaborative culture is essential to enable the development of pilot projects. From the knowledge generated from pilot projects, municipalities can update their standards process.Civil Engineering | Construction Management and Engineerin
Malicious DNS Tunnel Tool Recognition using Persistent DoH Traffic Analysis
No full textDNS over HTTPS (DoH) protocol can mitigate the risk of privacy breaches but makes it difficult to control network security services due to the DNS traffic encryption. However, since malicious DNS tunnel tools for the DoH protocol pose network security threats, network administrators need to recognize malicious communications even after the DNS traffic encryption has become widespread. In this paper, we propose a malicious DNS tunnel tool recognition system using persistent DoH traffic analysis based on machine learning. The proposed system can accomplish continuous knowledge updates for emerging malicious DNS tunnel tools on the machine learning model. The system is based on hierarchical machine learning classification and focuses on DoH traffic analysis. The evaluation results confirm that the proposed system is able to recognize the six malicious DNS tunnel tools in total, not only well-known ones, including dns2tcp, dnscat2, and iodine, but also the emerging ones such as dnstt, tcp-over-dns, and tuns with 98.02% classification accuracy.Published in: IEEE Transactions on Network and Service Management (Volume:20, Issue:2, June 2023
Sparse non-smooth atomic decomposition of Morrey spaces
No full textRecently, a non-smooth atomic decomposition in Morrey spaces was obtained by the author, Iida and Tanaka. This note refines the above existing result using the notion of sparse families. As an application, we prove the equivalence between fractional integral operators and fractional maximal operators under the Morrey norm. © 2019 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd
Adapting the Anglo-American Vampire Archetype : the Contemporary Japanese Vampire Mythos
No full textiii, 50 p.The author reviews the Western vampire tradition from Stoker's Dracula to the novels of Anne Rice and the TV vampires on Buff the Vampire Slayer. In contrast to the evil "others" of Western vampire lore, the graphic novel vampires of Japanese authors Iida Haruko and Kikuchi Hideyuki come to reflect the Japanese concept of "wa" or harmony and serve as protectors of peace and social harmony

Ellipsometry of passive oxide films on nickel in acidic sulfate solution
No full textNickel passive film has been studied in acidic sulfate solutions at pH 2.3 and 3.3 by ellipsometry. During anodic passivation followed by cathodic reduction, the roughness increases with dissolution of nickel, being indicated by gradual decrease of reflectance. However, the ellipsometric parameters, Ψ (arctan of relative amplitude ratio) and Δ (relative retardation of phase), are relatively insensitive to the roughness increase. From the change of Ψ and Δ, δΨ and δΔ, during the anodic passivation and reduction, thickness of the passive oxide film was estimated with assumption of refractive index of nf = 2.3 of the film. The thickness estimated is a range between 1.4 and 1.7 nm in the passive potential region from 0.8 to 1.4 V vs. RHE, having a tendency of thickening with increase of potential. Cathodic reduction at constant potential induces a change of the oxide film to an oxide film with lower refractive index of nf = 1.7, accompanied by thickening of the film about 30% more in the initial stage of reduction for 30 s. The gradual decrease of thickness takes place for the oxide with the lower refractive index in the latter stage. The potential change from the passive region to cathodic hydrogen evolution region may initially cause hydration of the passive oxide of NiO, i.e., NiO + H2O = Ni(OH)2, and during the latter stage of reduction, the hydrated nickel oxide gradually dissolves
