Managing Hydro Resources of Pakistan: A Proactive Approach for Disaster Response
Abstract: Our county has been bestowed with sufficient water resources, yet it is facing water shortages due to mismanagement and changing weather phenomena. Pakistan’s vulnerability to natural hazards had increased many folds because of this issue, in the shape of floods and droughts. The efforts should be augmented by prudent policies of creating new dams and local storage facilities. To the contrary, Pakistan has witnessed a strange complacency and lack of …

Artificial Intelligence–Assisted Reduced-Order Modeling and Stability Control in Granular Couette Flow
Abstract: This study develops a reduced-order and stability-aware modeling framework for dense granular Couette flow by integrating continuum mechanics, bifurcation analysis, and data-driven stability estimation. Starting from coupled governing equations for momentum, granular temperature, and microstructural evolution, the system is nondimensionalized and reduced using a Galerkin projection consistent with shear-driven boundary conditions. This yields a low-dimensional nonlinear dynamical system that preserves the essential coupling between velocity, fluctuation energy, and structural relaxation. …

The Emerging Roles of the School Librarian in the Tech Era: A Transformative Synergy with NEP 2020 and KVS Initiatives
Abstract: The implementation of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 in India mandates a radical paradigm shift in the school education ecosystem, moving from rote-based learning toward a 5+3+3+4 pedagogical structure centered on critical thinking and multidisciplinary exploration. This paper employs a Qualitative Policy-to-Practice Synthesis (QPPS) design to analyze the evolving role of the school librarian as a strategic catalyst within this framework, with a specific focus on the Kendriya Vidyalaya …

Comprehensive study of Entanglement Entropy in Quantum Field Theory: Analysis of Conformal Field Theory to Massive Field Extensions and Holographic Entanglement
Abstract: This paper provides an in-depth analysis of entanglement entropy (EE) in quantum field theory (QFT), with a particular focus on its computation using the replica trick and its applications to both conformal and non-conformal systems. Beginning with an introduction to the basics of QFT, the study explains how entanglement entropy quantifies the quantum correlations between subsystems in a pure state, represented by the von Neumann entropy of the reduced density …

Blockchain-based Land Registration: A Secure and Transparent Approach
Abstract: Traditional land registration systems have long faced challenges such as inefficiencies, lack of transparency, and security vulnerabilities due to centralized governance. The dependency on centralized entities for property record maintenance introduces risks such as data manipulation, fraudulent transactions, and unauthorized modifications. Additionally, bureaucratic procedures in these systems often lead to delays in property transfers and ownership verification. These shortcomings hinder economic development and trust among stakeholders. Blockchain technology presents an …

IoT and Machine Learning in Green Smart Home Automation and Green Building Management
Abstract: AbstractInternet of things (IoT) is a developing concept, which aims to associate billions of devices with each other. The IoT devices sense, assemble, and transfer important information from their environments. This exchange of very large amount of information among billions of devices makes an enormous energy need. The radical growth in urbanization over the last few years needs sustainable, proficient, and smart clarifications for transport, governance, environment, quality of life, …

Conductive Polymers for Electro-Mechanical Systems: Structure–Property Relationships and Mechanical Behavior Under Stress
Abstract: Conductive polymers represent a unique class of functional materials that combine the electrical characteristics of metals with the mechanical flexibility of polymers. These dual properties are critical for the next generation of electro-mechanical systems, including wearable sensors, soft robotics, structural health monitoring (SHM), and biomedical actuators. However, the mechanical performance of conductive polymers under diverse stress conditions—such as elongation, cyclic loading, bending, and impact—remains a key challenge, limiting their long-term …

Role of Artificial Intelligence in Quantum Materials Research
Abstract: Quantum materials have emerged as a transformative class of advanced materials due to their extraordinary electronic, magnetic, optical, and topological properties governed by quantum mechanical phenomena. These materials are expected to revolutionize next-generation technologies such as quantum computing, spintronics, superconducting electronics, nanoelectronics, intelligent sensing systems, and energy-efficient devices. However, conventional methods for discovering and optimizing quantum materials are often expensive, time-consuming, and computationally intensive because of the enormous complexity of …

Synthetic Highs in Urban India: A Quantitative Study of Synthetic Drug Use Among Youth in Maharashtra’s Metropolitan Cities
Abstract: Background: The increasing prevalence of synthetic drug use among urban youth is emerging as a serious public health issue in cities like Mumbai and Pune. The transition from traditional drugs to more modern ones, such as MDMA, LSD, and meth, is indicative of deeper global shifts fueled by urbanization, increased access to the internet, and peer pressure. There is an abundant increase in reports about the availability of synthetic drugs, …

A Vehicle Emission Tax Model: To Promote Adoption of Zero Emission Vehicles for Indian Context
Abstract: Vehicle tailpipe emissions have been regulated by the authorities over the period of time forcing vehicle manufacturers in improving engine technologies to comply with the government stipulated norms. Improvement in engine designs has reduced vehicle tailpipe emissions to the extent of emissions to meet the notified norms. Historically, such a reduction in vehicle emissions has been achieved in steps/stages as and when new emission norms were notified. It is proposed …
