  • Anonymity plays an increasingly important role on social media. This is reflected by more and more applications enabling anonymous interactions. However, do social media users behave different when they are anonymous? In our research, we investigated social media services meant for solely anonymous use (Jodel) and for widely spread non-anonymous sharing of pictures and videos (Instagram). This study examines the impact of anonymity on the behavior of users on Jodel compared to their non-anonymous use of Instagram as well as the differences between the user types: producer, consumer, and participant. Our approach is based on the uses and gratifications theory (U>) by E. Katz, specifically on the sought gratifications (motivations) of self-presentation, information, socialization, and entertainment. Since Jodel is mostly used in Germany, we developed an online survey in German. The questions addressed the three different user types and were subdivided according to the four motivation categories of the U>. In total 664 test persons completed the questionnaire. The results show that anonymity indeed influences users' usage behavior depending on user types and different U> categories.

  • In this paper, we developed DNL(Dynamic Network Loading) model based on Moving cell theory to analyze the dynamic characteristics of traffic flow in congested network. In this paper vehicles entered into link at same interval would construct one cell, and the cells moved according to Cell following rule. In the past researches relating to DNL model a continuous single link is separated into two sections such as running section and queuing section to describe physical queue so that various dynamic states generated in real link are only simplified by running and queuing state. However, the approach has some difficulties in simulating various dynamic flow characteristics. To overcome these problems, we present Moving cell theory which is developed by combining Car following theory and Lagrangian method mainly using for the analysis of air pollutants dispersion. In Moving cell theory platoons are represented by cells and each cell is processed by Cell following theory. This type of simulation model is firstly presented by Cremer et al(1999). However they did not develop merging and diverging model because their model was applied to basic freeway section. Moreover they set the number of vehicles which can be included in one cell in one interval so this formulation cant apply to signalized intersection in urban network. To solve these difficulties we develop new approach using Moving cell theory and simulate traffic flow dynamics continuously by movement and state transition of the cells. The developed model are played on simple network including merging and diverging section and it shows improved abilities to describe flow dynamics comparing past DNL models.

  • This paper focuses on vibration analysis of functionally graded cylindrical shell submerged in an incompressible fluid. The equation is established considering axial and lateral hydrostatic pressure based on first order shear deformation theory of shell motion using the wave propagation approach and classic Fl$\ddot{u}$gge shell equations. To study accuracy of the present analysis, a comparison carried out with a known data and the finite element package ABAQUS. With this method the effects of shell parameters, m, n, h/R, L/R, different boundary conditions and different power-law exponent of material of functionally graded cylindrical shells, on the frequencies are investigated. The results obtained from the present approach show good agreement with published results.

  • In 1996, Br$\ddot{u}$ck studied the relation between f and f' if an entire function f shares one value a CM with its first derivative f' and posed the famous Br$\ddot{u}$ck conjecture. In this work, we generalize the value a in the Br$\ddot{u}$ck conjecture to a small function ${\alpha}$. Meanwhile, we prove that the Br$\ddot{u}$ck conjecture holds for a class of meromorphic functions.

  • We investigate the multiple nontrivial solutions of the asymmetric beam equation $u_{tt}+u_{xxxx}=b_1[{(u + 2)}^+-2]+b_2[{(u + 3)}^+-3]$ with Dirichlet boundary condition and periodic condition on t. We reduce this problem into a two-dimensional problem by using variational reduction method and apply the Mountain Pass theorem to find the nontrivial solutions of the equation.

  • The non-existence and existence of the positive solution for the generalized cooperation biological model for two species of animals $${\Delta}u+u(a-bu+g(v))=0\;in\;{\Omega}\\{\Delta}v+v(d+h(u)-cv)=0\;in\;{\Omega}\\u=v=0\;on\;{\partial}{\Omega}$$ are investigated. The techniques used in this paper are elliptic theory, upper-lower solutions, maximum principles and spectrum estimates. The arguments also rely on some detailed properties for the solution of logistic equations.

  • It is well known that every $x{\in}(0,1]$ can be expanded to an infinite $L{\ddot{u}}roth$ series with the form of $$x={\frac{1}{d_1(x)}}+{\cdots}+{\frac{1}{d_1(x)(d_1(x)-1){\cdots}d_{n-1}(x)(d_{n-1}(x)-1)d_n(x)}}+{{\cdots}}$$, where $d_n(x){\geq}2$ for all $n{\geq}1$. In this paper, the set of points with some restrictions on the digits in $L{\ddot{u}}roth$ series expansions are considered. Namely, the Hausdorff dimension of following the set $$F_{\phi}=\{x{\in}(0,1]\;:\;d_n(x){\geq}{\phi}(n),\;i.o.n}$$ is determined, where ${\phi}$ is an integer-valued function defined on ${\mathbb{N}}$, and ${\phi}(n){\rightarrow}{\infty}$ as $n{\rightarrow}{\infty}$.

  • The existence and uniqueness of T-periodic solutions for the following p-Laplacian equations: $$({\phi}_p(x^{\prime}))^{\prime}+{\alpha}(t)x^{\prime}+g(t,x)=e(t),\;x(0)=x(T),x^{\prime}(0)=x^{\prime}(T)$$ are investigated, where ${\phi}_p(u)={\mid}u{\mid}^{p-2}u$ with $p$ > 1 and ${\alpha}{\in}C^1$, $e{\in}C$ are T-periodic and $g$ is continuous and T-periodic in $t$. By using coincidence degree theory, some existence and uniqueness results are obtained.

  • Recently, the problem associated with the achievement of desired trajectories for non-linear robotic manipulatory systems are researched. The control system which is designed for this robot manipulator, poses a number of severe problem. The methods proposed to deal with the problem fall loosely into three main classes : "direct" "adaptive", "anthropomorphic". Besides there is an approach which is described based upon the application of optimal control theory. In this paper, using the optimal theory, we choose error-coordinate, between the desired trajectories and the practical as the state values, and determine the control law U which minimize a corresponding performance criterion. Let's consider the robotic arm proposed by Freund and set up the deviations of it's trajectory as a measure of performance. To find the optimal control law $U^*$ and the next state value which need to obtain $U^*$ here, we should introduced the conjugate gradient algorithm and the Runge Kutta method.

  • This article is focused how the maritime strategy between continental powered country(the Soviet, the China) and maritime powered country(the U.S.) interact with attack and defense theory. We will know, what is the maritime strategy that the U.S. of military superiority has pursued with the point of view of attack, on the other hand, relatively what is the maritime strategy that the Soviet-Sino of military inferiority has pursued with the point of view of defense. In cold war, the Soviet has counteracted to 'blue belt defense' in active defense as to the U.S. 'sea strike' and in post cold war, the China counteract to 'A2/AD' as to the U.S. 'Air-Sea Battle'. The difference between the Soviet-Sino maritime strategy is that the China has emerged the second an economic power and their leadership has a strong's will to strengthen their navy's power. although the U.S. declare the pivot to Asia, the influence on Asia of the U.S. tend to decrease because of sequest. therefore, the China will seek to the more active defense beyond the first island chain. Meanwhile, the U.S. has reinforced of 'hub and spoke strategy' to solidify the U.S. formal allies to band together regional powers and to overcome the A2/AD challenge, the U.S. has been developed that the Air-Sea Battle concept meshes with Washington's 'rebalancing' policy toward the Asia-Pacific as its vital missions to safeguard core island or semi-island allies-namely, Korea and Japan-and crucial sea lanes of communication in the region are conducted mostly from or over the sea.
