A Constrained Strategy to Extend the Lifetime of Sensor Nodes for LoS Optimization in Wireless Sensor Networks
Abstract: Wireless sensor network is a group of wireless sensor nodes, each capable of sensing, processing and communicating, however, once deployed in numbers, form a network which cooperatively monitor the state of the physical world. The sensor nodes in the network have small batteries and cannot be replaced once exhausted. Due to this, the operational lifetime of sensor nodes is crucial in a variety of monitoring applications, since the number of …

Processing and Mechanical Characterization of Compression-Molded Ultrahigh Molecular Weight Polyethylene Biocomposite Reinforced with Aluminum Oxide
Abstract: Ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) has been widely used as a bone implant material in orthopedic surgical applications in trauma due to its low coefficient of friction, good biocompatibility, and excellent wear and corrosion resistance properties in comparison to other polyolefins. But, due to the formation of wear debris, implants loosen and fail after 12–15 years of implantation. In order to enhance lifespan, the role of alumina (Al2O3) reinforcement on …

Coordinated Checkpointing Algorithms: A Comparative Analysis
Abstract: In distributed system collection of independent computers appear to the users as a single computer. The property of fault tolerance is that it enables a system to continue operating properly if the failure occurs in the event of some of the components. Minimum process coordinated checkpointing is an appropriate approach to initiate fault tolerance in mobile distributed systems. Checkpoint-based rollback recovery restores the system state to the most recent reliable …

Effect of Particle Size of Sand on the Interface Shear Behavior of Sand and Non-woven Geotextile
Abstract: Soil-geosynthetic interface is the weakest zone for shear failure. It is influenced by size, shape, density and water content of sand. It is also influenced by the properties of geosynthetic such as texture and structure. This paper explores the influence of the size of sand on the behavior of sand-geotextile interface. Three types of sands namely coarse, medium and fine sand and non-woven geotextile were used in this study. Several …

Study on the Response of Strengthening Strategies for Masonry-infilled Open Ground Storey Framed Building
Abstract: The strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) frame buildings with masonry infill wall and with open ground storey is a very timely and significant topic because of the poor performance against seismic action. The absence of infill walls in the ground storey makes the ground storey less stiff and weaker than the all upper storys which results in a poor performance against lateral loads. Soft storey mechanism prevails in these cases …
