This paper addresses a new approach based on the Weber-face and singular value decomposition (SVD) methods to improve the recognition accuracy for a face recognition system using local binary patterns and local ternary patterns in an illumination variation environment. The face images are the first extracted illumination-invariant components by the Weber-face method. Secondly, SVD is applied to the encoded images. Next, the training encoded images are extracted features based on local binary patterns or local ternary patterns. Finally, in the classification phase, the singular value matrix of a test image is combined with those of the training images to adjust the illumination of the test image before the features are extracted and classified. The recognition is performed using a nearest neighbor classifier with Chi-square as a dissimilarity measure. Experimental results on the extended Yale B database demonstrated the efficiency of our proposed method. Thus, the proposed approach is expected to contribute to the face recognition problem under varying illumination conditions.

Response surface methodology combined with Box-Behnken experimental design were employed to study the adsorption of U(VI) on microwave activated rice husk ash (ARHA) to elucidate the effects of parameters such as pH, adsorbent dose and U(VI) initial concentration on the adsorption process. Experimental data indicated that pH and adsorbent dose positively affected the adsorption process of U(VI) by ARHA, however, this effect was partially offset by the effect of the initial concentration. The highest adsorption percentage for U(VI) observed at pH of 6.14, adsorbent dose of 0.478 g and U(VI) initial concentration of 38.93 mg/l. With five cycles desorption/adsorption without changing the adsorption efficiency, it could be concluded that ARHA is a promising adsorbent for uranium removal.

The total length of road network in Vietnam is over 20,000kilometers. Millions of cubic meters of materials for pavement construction and rehabilitation are required every year. Vietnam has to import asphalt binder. Good quarry resources are located far from big city and quickly reducing in quantities. Thus, reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) technology is considered as the key to reduce the cost and preserve natural environment. After nearly ten years studies this technology, the practice of the technology is still limited in Vietnam. This paper is a describing of reclaimed asphalt pavement technology in practice of Vietnam. Only one of four RAP process are widely applied, although the chosen RAP process may not efficient in all cases.

Due to Low-Rate Wireless Personal Area Networks(LR-WPANs) is popularly used in Internet of Things (IOT) in recent years, Chiu and Wang proposed a linked list routing algorithm with wormhole mechanism, which includes the linked list network construction mechanism, the wormhole mechanism and the MODBUS extension instructions for data collection. There are still a lot of non-adaptive problems in that algorithm, such that network initialization problem, continuous nodes broken problem and node outliers problem. Those problems could make the whole network stay in unstable state when the special conditions bring out. In this paper, we proposed an adaptive linked-list routing algorithm with wormhole mechanism. By proposed the Lock-address mechanism fundamentally, we can make the stable chain scission, reset sequentially and cutting timer determination mechanism for broken nodes. In simulation, the performance of network initialization of adaptive linked-list routing algorithm with wormhole mechanism and flooding is compared and simulated by NS3 in this paper. The simulations results reveal that the initialization of adaptive linked-list routing algorithm with wormhole mechanism is more efficient than flooding when nodes are 5 meters apart and a matrix model of nodes number from 7*7 to 15*15.

Quantum dots (QDs) ink from Mn2+-doped ZnS (ZnS:Mn2+) quantum dots with poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) as stabilizer has been synthesized by two steps. First, ZnS:Mn2+ quantum dots were prepared by chemical co-precipitation method at room temperature and second, the powder of ZnS:Mn2+ quantum dots was dispersed in a solution of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), de-ionized water, and alcohol to achieve a stable ink formulation. The ZnS:Mn2+ quantum dots exhibited both blue trap-state emission at around 430 nm and a strong orangered emission at about 600 nm with an excitation wavelength of 325 nm. The structural and optical properties of the ZnS:Mn2+ quantum dots were characterized by X-Ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV-Visible absorption spectrum and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. XRD analysis showed the formation of cubic ZnS:Mn2+ particles with average sizes from 2.0 to 2.53 nm while the particle size was estimated to be 10 nm from transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The ZnS:Mn2+ quantum dots ink was printed on photographic paper using screen technique. The studied result indicated that the ZnS:Mn2+ quantum dots can be used in the ink printing of security documents and labels, light - emitting diodes (LEDs), in novel photoluminescent display and advertising.

Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) plays an important role in smart grids. Data Concentrator Unit (DCU), used to collect data from smart meters and transmit them to Meter Database Management System (MDMS) regularly, is the core component in AMI. If DCU can provide value-added functionalities, more efficient AMI management can be achieved. Therefore, this paper designs and develops IEC61850 as a value-added functionality for DCU to solve the communication consistency problem resulting from protocols of different vendors. A windowsbased Human-Machine Interface (HMI) for remote electricity supervisory system using Manufacturing Message Specification(MMS) is also implemented. The Linux-based HMI is used to acquire and monitor the collected data in the proposed IEC61850-based DCU. An experimental DCU platform is implemented to verify the correctness of IEC61850 realized in this paper. Besides, commercialized software is used to validate the communication consistency of IEC 61850 protocols implemented in the proposed DCU.

Commercial TiO2 (P25) doped with metallic silver nanoparticles was prepared by γ-irradiation method. The size of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was determined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to be of 1-2 nm. The photo-catalytic degradation of azo dye Metyl Red (MR) in the aqueous suspensions of TiO2 and Ag/TiO2 under visible light was carried out to evaluate the photo-catalytic activity. Results showed that Ag/TiO2 was found to enhance higher photo-degradation efficiency of Metyl Red (72%) than those of commercial P25-TiO2 (23%). Thus, γ-irradiation method can be suitably applied to prepare photo-catalyst of TiO2 doped with siver nanoparticles with highly photo-catalytic activity under visible light.
