(author), Ning, Fulong (author)Methane hydrate dissociation kinetics can be inhibited in NaCl solutions; however, this effect is reversed by promoting bubble formation that enhances dissociation. The negative and positive effects of inorganic salt injection on gas production from hydrate-bearing sediments are still controversial. Here, molecular dynamics simulations were...journal article 2022

Xie, Jiahong (author), Cheng, Haibo (author), Zhu, Rong (author), Wang, Ping (author), Liang, K. (author)To date there are few researches on the semantic information of passwords, which leaves a gap preventing us from fully understanding the passwords characteristic and security. We propose a new password probability model for semantic information based on Markov Chain with both generalization and accuracy, called WordMarkov, that can capture the...conference paper 2022

Zhao, Zhijun (author), Yan, Gaowei (author), Ren, Mifeng (author), Cheng, Lan (author), Zhu, Zhujun (author), Pang, Y. (author)The traditional soft sensor models are based on the independent and identical distribution assumption, which are difficult to adapt to changes in data distribution under multiple operating conditions, resulting in model performance deterioration. The domain adaptive transfer learning methods learn knowledge in different domains by means of...journal article 2022

He, Xiaoxi (author), Cheng, Haibo (author), Xie, Jiahong (author), Wang, Ping (author), Liang, K. (author)Passwords have been widely used in online authentication, and they form the front line that protects our data security and privacy. But the security of password may be easily harmed by insecure password generator. Massive reports state that users are always keen to generate new passwords by reusing or fine-tuning old secrets. Once an old...conference paper 2022

(author)The amount of suspended fines in the southern North Sea strongly depends on their exchange with the sandy seabed. This exchange is governed by resuspension of fines during storms, followed by burial in the week thereafter. Despite its importance for fine sediment dynamics, the burial of fines into a sandy seabed is currently not well...journal article 2022

Xu, Shichang (author), Cheng, Gang (author), Pang, Y. (author), Jin, Zujin (author), Kang, Bin (author)Real-time and accurate longitudinal rip detection of a conveyor belt is crucial for the safety and efficiency of an industrial haulage system. However, the existing longitudinal detection methods possess drawbacks, often resulting in false alarms caused by tiny scratches on the belt surface. A method of identifying the longitudinal rip through...journal article 2021

Cheng, L. (author), Xin, H. (author), Groves, R.M. (author), Veljkovic, M. (author)Acoustic emission (AE) is often used for structural health monitoring (SHM) in the wide field of engineering structures and one of its most beneficial attributes is the ability to localize the damage/crack based on the AE events. The vast majority of ongoing work on AE monitoring focues on geometrically simple structures or a confined area,...journal article 2021

Li, Wenting (author), Cheng, Haibo (author), Wang, Ping (author), Liang, K. (author)Multi-factor authentication (MFA) has been widely used to safeguard high-value assets. Unlike single-factor authentication (e.g., password-only login), t-factor authentication (tFA) requires a user always to carry and present t specified factors so as to strengthen the security of login. Nevertheless, this may restrict user experience in...journal article 2021
