For q a prime power, the discrete logarithm problem (DLP) in Fq consists in finding, for any g∈Fq× and h∈⟨g⟩, an integer x such that gx=h. We present an algorithm for computing discrete log ...
The MBI (maximum block improvement) method is a greedy approach to solving optimization problems where the decision variables can be grouped into a finite number of blocks. Assuming that optimizing over one block of variables while fixing all others is rel ...
We assume a scenario where an attacker can mount several independent attacks on a single CPU. Each attack can be run several times in independent ways. Each attack can succeed after a given number of steps with some given and known probability. A natural q ...
Fluid bridges are ubiquitous soft structures of finite size that conform to and link the surfaces of neighboring objects. Fluid joints, the specific type of fluid bridge with at least one extremity constrained laterally, display even more pronounced reacti ...
We consider the question of the correlation of Fourier coefficients of modular forms with functions of algebraic origin. We establish the absence of correlation in considerable generality (with a power saving of Burgess type) and a corresponding equidistri ...
A good implant primary stability is closely associated with long-term success of total hip arthroplasty. Excessive interfacial micromotion around the femoral component after cementless hip replacement is related to aseptic loosening of the stem and affects ...
The development of slip lines, due to strain localization, is a common cause for failure of soil in many circumstances investigated in geotechnical engineering. Through the use of numerical methods – like finite elements – many practitioners are able to ta ...
The embedded model is used in finite elements to account for the influence of the reinforcement in concrete. This report describes the embedded model, its concept and equations. Details are also given as to the constitutive relations of concrete and steel. ...
In 2013 the Discrete Logarithm Problem in finite fields of small characteristic enjoyed a rapid series of developments, starting with the heuristic polynomial-time relation generation method due to Gologlu, Granger, McGuire and Zumbragel, and culminating w ...
The mechanical loss spectrum of a yellow gold bi-crystal is presented and analyzed in detail. The relaxation strength is monitored as a function of several geometrical parameters such as sample width, length and thickness. It is found that the relaxation s ...
