An image encryption algorithm is proposed in this paper based on a new four-dimensional hyperchaotic system, a neural mechanism, a Galois field and an improved Feistel block structure, which improves the efficiency and enhances the security of the encryption algorithm. Firstly, a four-dimensional hyperchaotic system with a large key space and chaotic dynamics performance is proposed and combined with a cloud model, in which a more complex and random sequence is constructed as the key stream, and the problem of chaotic periodicity is solved. Then, the key stream is combined with the neural mechanism, Galois field and improved Feistel block structure to scramble and diffuse the image encryption. Finally, the experimental results and security analysis show that the encryption algorithm has a good encryption effect and high encryption efficiency, is secure, and can meet the requirements of practical applications.

In this paper, the possibility of using nonlinear ultrasonic guided waves for early-life material degradation in metal plates is investigated through both computational modeling and study. The analysis of the second harmonics of Lamb waves in a free boundary aluminum plate, and the internal resonance conditions between the Lamb wave primary modes and the second harmonics are investigated. Subsequently, Murnaghan’s hyperelastic model is implemented in a finite element (FE) analysis to study the response of aluminum plates subjected to a 60 kHz Hanning-windowed tone burst. Different stages of material degradation are reflected as the changes in the third order elastic constants (TOECs) of the Murnaghan’s model. The reconstructed degradations match the actual ones well across various degrees of degradation. The effects of several relevant factors on the accuracy of reconstructions are also discussed.
