Arthashastra as a Pedagogical Resource: Cultivating Peace Values through Ancient Statecraft
Abstract: One of the earliest Indian texts on statecraft, including the governance of a state, its economics, diplomacy, military strategy and ethics, is the Arthashastra attributed to Kautilya (Chanakaya), which was written around the 4th century BCE. Although commonly viewed through the prism of realism and the power and pragmatism, peace (shanti) is a strategic and ethical value of the text that ensures stability, prosperity (artha) and welfare (yogakshema) to the …

Machine Learning Optimization for VARTM Carbon Polymer Laminates
Abstract: Vacuum-assisted resin transfer moulding (VARTM) is a key low-cost, out-of-autoclave process for manufacturing large-scale carbon-fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates crucial to aerospace wings, wind-turbine blades, marine hulls, and automotive structures. Unpredictable resin flow often leads to voids, dry spots, and race-tracking defects, resulting in 27.9% scrap rates and lengthy, costly trial-and-error design cycles. Although surrogate models provide rapid impregnation predictions for simple flat-plate geometries, vision-based monitoring is limited to idealized …
