Cloud storage services have numerous advantages,including convenience, high computation, and capacity, thereby attracting usersto outsource data in the cloud. However, users outsource data directly via cloudstage services that are unsafe when outsourcing data is sensitive for users. Therefore, cipher text-policy attribute-based encryption is a promising cryptographicsolution in a cloud environment, and can be drawn up for access control by dataowners (DO) to define access policy. Unfortunately, an outsourced architectureapplied with attribute-based encryption introduces numerous challenges, including revocation. This issue is a threat to the data security of DO. Furthermore,highly secure and flexible cipher text-based attribute access control with role hierarchy user grouping in cloud storage is implemented by extending the KUNodes(revocation) storage identity-based encryption.

The results show that because of their own excellent heat conductivity and good hydrogen storage ability, the carbon nanotubes improve the mass transfer and heat transfer properties of the Mg-based nanocomponents, thus enhancing the kinetic property of hydrogen absorption and desorption of the hydrogen storage nanocomposites, and raising the hydrogen storage capacity. Due to the addition of the carbon nanotubes, the milling stress in the process of preparing the Mg-based nanocomposites is reduced, the components can be closely bonded easily, and the additives can play better catalytic roles.展开更多

The optimum measurement condition was at a frequency of 0.1 Hz with the inlet gas-flow sequence CO （5S）→O2（5S）→CO→O2 and a flow rate of 300 ml·min^-1. Under this condition, similar regular square wave in the inlet and outlet of the reactor was obtained to guarantee the reliability of the dynamic OSC results. The dynamic OSC performance of the CeO2 and Ce0.67Zr0.33O2 mixed oxide prepared using the citric sol-gel method was studied at the optimum measurement condition with focus on both quantitative and qualitative analyses, The results reveal distinctly that Ce0.67Zr0.33O2 had better dynamic OSC performance because of its higher oxygen migration rate than CeO2. Under dynamic conditions, two CO2 production peaks occurred corresponding to the CO pulse and the O2 pulse, respectively, during the entire cycle. The intensity and ratio between the two CO2 productions were highly influenced by temperature and frequency indicating complex surface phenomena during the oxygen storage/release process, As a result, this set-up can be applied to the evaluation of ceria-based material on the OSC performance.展开更多

The total coefficients of the kinetics equation of the hydrogen absorption and desorption process with shell diffusion as the controlling step were determined by semi-empirical and semi-theoretical methods, and the apparent activation energy of the hydrogen absorption process was obtained. The calculation results can well accord with the experimental data, and can well forecast the hydrogen storage capacity and absorption rate at different times. By using the kinetics equation, the effects of temperature and pressure on the hydrogen storage process can also be well understood. The kinetics equation is helpful for the design of the hydrogen storage container.展开更多

文摘This paper presents a novel Simulink models with an evaluation study of more widely used On-Line Maximum Power Point tracking(MPPT)techniques for Photo-Voltaic based Battery Storage Systems(PV-BSS).To have a full comparative study in terms of the dynamic response,battery state of charge(SOC),and oscillations around the Maximum Power Point(MPP)of the PV-BSS to variations in climate conditions,these techniques are simulated in Matlab/Simulink.The introduced methodologies are classified into two types;the first type is conventional hill-climbing techniques which are based on instantaneous PV data measurements such as Perturb&Observe and Incremental Conductance techniques.The second type is a novel proposed methodology is based on using solar irradiance and cell temperature measurements with pre-build Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System(ANFIS)model to predict DC–DC converter optimum duty cycle to track MPP.Then evaluation study is introduced for conventional and proposed On-Line MPPT techniques.This comparative study can be useful in specifying the appropriateness of the MPPT techniques for PV-BSS.Also the introduced model can be used as a valued reference model for future research related to Soft Computing(SC)MPPT techniques.A significant improvement of SOC is achieved by the proposed model and methodology with high accuracy and lower oscillations.

文摘The present study dealt with investigations on the effects of annealing on the hydrogen storage properties of La 1.6 Ti 0.4 MgNi 9 alloys.The experimental alloys were prepared by magnetic levitation melting followed by annealing treatment.For La 1.6 Ti 0.4 MgNi 9 alloys,LaNi 5,LaNi 3 and LaMg 2 Ni 9 were the main phases,Ti 2 Ni phase appeared at 900℃.Annealing not only enhanced the maximum and effective hydrogen storage capacity,improved the hydrogen absorption/desorption kinetics,but also increased the discharge capacity.The cyclic stability had been improved markedly by annealing,e.g.,when the discharge capacity reduced to 60% of maximum discharge capacity,the charge/discharge cycles increased from 66（as-cast） to 89（annealed at 800℃） and 127 times（annealed at 900℃）.La 1.6 Ti 0.4 MgNi 9 alloy annealed at 900℃ exhibited better electrochemical properties compared to the other two alloy electrodes.
文摘Mg-based hydrogen storage nanocomposites added with carbon nanotubes(CNTs) were prepared by mechanical milling under the atmosphere of hydrogen. The results show that because of their own excellent heat conductivity and good hydrogen storage ability, the carbon nanotubes improve the mass transfer and heat transfer properties of the Mg-based nanocomponents, thus enhancing the kinetic property of hydrogen absorption and desorption of the hydrogen storage nanocomposites, and raising the hydrogen storage capacity. Due to the addition of the carbon nanotubes, the milling stress in the process of preparing the Mg-based nanocomposites is reduced, the components can be closely bonded easily, and the additives can play better catalytic roles.

文摘Dynamic oxygen storage and release capability （OSC） measurement apparatus was designed to evaluate the OSC performance of ceria-based oxygen storage material. The optimum measurement condition was at a frequency of 0.1 Hz with the inlet gas-flow sequence CO （5S）→O2（5S）→CO→O2 and a flow rate of 300 ml·min^-1. Under this condition, similar regular square wave in the inlet and outlet of the reactor was obtained to guarantee the reliability of the dynamic OSC results. The dynamic OSC performance of the CeO2 and Ce0.67Zr0.33O2 mixed oxide prepared using the citric sol-gel method was studied at the optimum measurement condition with focus on both quantitative and qualitative analyses, The results reveal distinctly that Ce0.67Zr0.33O2 had better dynamic OSC performance because of its higher oxygen migration rate than CeO2. Under dynamic conditions, two CO2 production peaks occurred corresponding to the CO pulse and the O2 pulse, respectively, during the entire cycle. The intensity and ratio between the two CO2 productions were highly influenced by temperature and frequency indicating complex surface phenomena during the oxygen storage/release process, As a result, this set-up can be applied to the evaluation of ceria-based material on the OSC performance.
文摘The kinetics equation of the Mg-based hydrogen storage alloys (Mg-Ni-MO) was established by the shell and shrinking core model. The total coefficients of the kinetics equation of the hydrogen absorption and desorption process with shell diffusion as the controlling step were determined by semi-empirical and semi-theoretical methods, and the apparent activation energy of the hydrogen absorption process was obtained. The calculation results can well accord with the experimental data, and can well forecast the hydrogen storage capacity and absorption rate at different times. By using the kinetics equation, the effects of temperature and pressure on the hydrogen storage process can also be well understood. The kinetics equation is helpful for the design of the hydrogen storage container.
