Thorium the Fuel of the Future to Revitalize Nuclear Power Generation
Abstract: After disasters like Kyshtym, Windscale, Fukushima, Chernobyl etc., nuclear energy carried a dreaded stigma. The cost of nuclear power generation in the conventional way is on the rise, and so there is a resurgence in nuclear technology using thorium as fuel. There is a great pressure from international community to reduce carbon emission. So many countries are looking for a path to generate energy that is distinctly different but pays …

Mud Acid Effect on Fines Migration Problem Using a Newly Developed Al/Zr-Based Clay Stabilizer (A): Mitigation Can Happen
Abstract: Sandstone reservoirs exhibit severe fines migration problems subsequent to conventional mud acid (HCl: HF) treatments. The acid treatment proved to be effective for a relatively short period of time, with a sudden production decline owing to either that mud acid spent rapidly in close proximity to the wellbore, causing clays to migrate into the acidized area and re-plug the formation; or that the mud acid system actually weakens the structure …

Geosynthetic polymeric material Reinforced Model Shallow Foundation's Monotonic and Cyclic Uplift Response Affected by Ground Inclination
Abstract: The foundation system of any structure is vital for ensuring safety, serviceability, and performance, particularly when subjected to vertical and uplift forces. While conventional foundations are primarily designed to resist compressive loads, structures such as transmission towers, offshore platforms, buried pipelines, retaining systems, and marine facilities are frequently subjected to uplift forces generated by wind, waves, buoyancy, and cyclic loading. Under such conditions, the uplift resistance of soil and uplift …

Einstein Quantum Entanglement and Quantum Communication
Abstract: AbstractQuantum theory suggests that “What we predict must happen in laboratory.” Quantum entanglement was introduced by Einstein, Schrodinger, Rosen and Podolsky in 1935. But the actual experimentation regarding quantum entanglement started 70 years later. Quantum entanglement paves the way for many other quantum processes such as quantum communication, teleportation, and cryptography. The concept of quantum entanglement is very complicated because it is difficult to detect, is affected by environment and …

Recent Advancements and Comprehensive Review on Hyphenated Techniques
Abstract: Hyphenated techniques represent a powerful class of analytical methods that combine two or more established techniques – typically a separation method with a spectroscopic detection technique – to achieve enhanced analytical performance. First introduced by Hirschfeld in 1980, the term “hyphenation” refers to the online coupling of such methods, enabling more precise, sensitive, and comprehensive analysis of complex samples. These techniques exploit the strengths of individual methods while overcoming their …

Use of Gold in Crown and Bridge Procedures: The Most Versatile Restorative Material in Dentistry: A Review and Commentary
Abstract: Use of gold restorations has been almost forgotten in dentistry. They are no longer a part of most dental training curricula or often employed in private practice. Gold restorations are usually overlooked on most patient treatment plans in modern dentistry largely due to the following misconceptions: Gold is too expensive for use as a dental material. Nonetheless, the price of an ounce of gold in recent months has been at …

Bayesian Optimization–Driven Operating Parameter Tuning for Maximizing Methane Yield in Anaerobic Digestion
Abstract: To achieve maximum methane production in an anaerobic digestion (AD) process, a combination of various operational parameters must be tuned nonlinearly in the digestion ecosystem. The conventional trial and error optimization methods are slow, resource consuming, and in most instances, cannot model the intricate parameter interaction in biogas production. The current work introduces a Bayesian Optimization-based model to optimize the set of conditions to maximize the level of methane produced …
