The rheological and mechanical properties of crosslinked polymer gels arise from the structure of the gel network. In turn, the structure of the gel network results from: thermodynamically determined interactions between the polymer chain segments, the interactions of the crosslinking metal ion with the polymer, and the deformation history of the network. Interpretations of mechanical and rheological measurements on polymer gels invariably begin with a conceptual model of,the microstructure of the gel network derived from polymer kinetic theory. In the present work, we use freeze-etch replication TEM to image the polymer network morphology of titanium crosslinked hydroxypropyl guars in an attempt to directly relate macroscopic phenomena with network structure.

Sukabumi District located in Southern West Java known as a region that has diverse natural characteristics, however, it is vulnerable to disasters, especially landslides. Moreover, this study focuses on Cisolok District because this region always occurred landslides every year due to topography aspect. The aim of this study is to analyze the influence of geomorphology to landslide-prone area in Cisolok District to reduce landslides. This study used overlay analysis for geomorphology mapping, while the Frequency Ratio (FR) method used for landslide-prone area mapping. Several physical variables used in this study such as slope, elevation, lithology, geological structure, road network, stream network, land use, soil type, rainfall, and landslide location. The result shows that the study areas have diverse geomorphology units dominated by volcanic slope with steep topography. While landslide-prone area consist of four classes : namely 17,03% low, 62,05% medium, 14,4% high, and 6,51% very high. Variety of landslide vulnerability in study area influenced by terrain form, land genesis, and geomorphic process.

Abstract Communications industry has remarkably changed with the development of fifth-generation cellular networks. Image, as an indispensable component of communication, has attracted wide attention. Thus, finding a suitable approach to assess image quality is important. Therefore, we propose a deep learning model for image quality assessment (IQA) based on explicit-implicit dual stream network. We use frequency domain features of kurtosis based on wavelet transform to represent explicit features and spatial features extracted by convolutional neural network (CNN) to represent implicit features. Thus, we constructed an explicit-implicit (EI) parallel deep learning model, namely, EI-IQA model. The EI-IQA model is based on the VGGNet that extracts the spatial domain features. On this basis, the number of network layers of VGGNet is reduced by adding the parallel wavelet kurtosis value frequency domain features. Thus, the training parameters and the sample requirements decline. We verified, by cross-validation of different databases, that the wavelet kurtosis feature fusion method based on deep learning has a more complete feature extraction effect and a better generalisation ability. Thus, the method can simulate the human visual perception system better, and subjective feelings become closer to the human eye. The source code about the proposed EI-IQA model is available on github https://github.com/jacob6/EI-IQA.
