Four sce- narios based on available information for the priors and test data of a system and/or subsystems are studied using specific Bayesian inference techniques. This paper proposes the Bayesian melding method for integrating subsystem-level priors with system-level priors for both system- and subsystem-level reliability analysis. System and subsystem reliability outcomes are compared under different scenarios. Computational challenges for posterior inferences using the sophisticated Bayesian melding method are addressed using Markov Chain Monte Carlo （MCMC） and adaptive Sam- piing Importance Re-sampling （SIR） methods. A case study with simulation results illustrates the applications of the proposed methods and provides insights for aerospace system reliability analysis using available multilevel information.展开更多

Innovative polymer-based fluorescent materials with multiple mode emission are quite desirable to achieve multistage data security. Herein, a series of soluble and thermally stable hyperbranched poly(formyl-1,2,3-triazole)s(hb-PFTAs) with high molecular weights were facilely prepared by catalyst-free polycycloaddition of aldehyde-activated internal triyne and diazides. Functional moieties of triphenylamine and binaphthyl could be incorporated into the polymers to offer them with unique fluorescence and circular dichroism properties, respectively.By taking advantage of activated ethynyl and aldehyde groups on their peripheries and in the internal branch chains, the hbPFTAs can undergo efficient single-and double-stage post-functionalization. More importantly, based on the remarkable fluorescence responses to hydrazine and hydrochloric acid, the hyperbranched polymers are featured with triple-mode fluorescent patterns and have been applied in quadruple-modal information encryption and storage with enhanced security and density. Collectively, this work not only enriches the structural diversity of the existing triazole-based material library, but also provides new polymeric materials for data and information security application.展开更多
