Finite Element Modelling of Contact Stresses in Helical Gear Systems
Abstract: Helical gears are widely used in modern power‐transmission systems because of their high load‐carrying capacity, smooth meshing action, and increased overlapping of gear teeth. However, the design of helical gear pairs is constrained by contact stresses generated at the mating tooth surfaces, which can lead to surface fatigue (pitting), micro-cracking, and ultimately gear failure. Traditional analytical methods, such as those of the American Gear Manufacturers Association (AGMA) or International Organization …

Optimized Hardware Realization of AES for High-Throughput FPGA Platforms
Abstract: The Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is the predominant symmetric-key cryptographic algorithm used for securing digital communication across embedded systems, IoT devices, cloud infrastructures, and defense networks. Although software-based AES implementations offer flexibility, they often fail to meet the high-speed, low-latency, and energy-efficient requirements of modern real-time applications. Reconfigurable hardware platforms such as Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) provide a powerful alternative by enabling architectural customization, intrinsic parallelism, and optimized hardware acceleration. …

A New Approach to Analyze the Performance of Flat Plate Collector
Abstract: AbstractAs per standards, the thermal efficiency test for the flat plate collector is used to be conducted under specified steady state conditions and then incident angle modifier ‘Kτα’ has been used to calculate the thermal efficiency at a different angle of incidence. These standards do not consider the effect of solar azimuth angle, as well as time consumption and require the costly test setup. In this paper, a new approach …
