Effect of Ply Orientation on Thermal Erosion and Conductivity of Silica Phenolic Composites Under Oxy-Acetylene Flame
Abstract: The thermal and erosion performance of fiber-reinforced composites is highly sensitive to fiber architecture, matrix chemistry, and processing techniques, factors that have shaped development of advanced thermal protection systems (TPS) over past two decades. Silica phenolic (SP) composites, in particular, are widely employed in aerospace and defense applications due to their flame resistance, char stability, and ability to withstand severe thermal shock. However, optimizing thermal conductivity while improving erosion resistance …

Hydrodynamic Assessment of a Proposed FSRU Development in the Visakhapatnam Outer Harbour
Abstract: This study presents a detailed hydrodynamic assessment of a proposed Floating Storage andRegasification Unit (FSRU) in the Visakhapatnam Outer Harbour. A depth-integrated, two- dimensional hydrodynamic model was developed using MIKE-21 Flexible Mesh (FM) to quantify theinfluence of the terminal layout, dredged pocket configuration, and vessel presence on tidal circulation, freshet-driven flows, and extreme-event conditions. Baseline simulations were performed using existing bathymetry and operational geometries, followed by proposed configurations that included …

Cellular Mechanisms of Autophagy in Carcinogenesis: A Narrative Review
Abstract: Autophagy is a highly conserved lysosomal degradation pathway essential for cellular homeostasis, metabolic adaptation, and survival under stress. In the context of carcinogenesis, autophagy exhibits a paradoxical and stage-dependent role. During early tumor development, autophagy acts as a tumor-suppressive mechanism by limiting genomic instability, oxidative stress, and chronic inflammation. Conversely, in established malignancies, cancer cells exploit autophagy to sustain growth, survive hostile tumor microenvironments, and resist anticancer therapies. Increasing evidence …

Harnessing Deep Learning to Explore Microbial Community Structure and Carbon Storage Capacity in Mangrove Ecosystems: A Framework for Computationally
Abstract: Mangrove ecosystems represent one of the most efficient natural carbon sinks on Earth, functioning as critical blue carbon habitats that sustain diverse microbial communities responsible for biogeochemical cycling and long-term carbon storage. Despite their global ecological significance, accurately quantifying and predicting carbon sequestration in mangrove systems remains challenging due to the complex interactions between microbial diversity, sediment chemistry, and environmental drivers. This study presents a comprehensive and sustainable artificial intelligence …

Sensors-Based Electric Machine Design for Industry
Abstract: The integration of advanced sensors is fundamentally changing the economics and reliability of electric machines. It moves design focus from minimizing material cost and adhering to conservative standards toward maximizing operational availability and energy efficiency. In the industry of tomorrow, the electric motor will not be a passive collection of coils and steel, but a self-diagnosing, self-optimizing, and perhaps even self-healing asset—a sentient motor—driven by its highly refined sixth sense, …

Designing and Analysis of Different Types of Fins in Air Cooled Engine
Abstract: This paper is dedicated to the study of various shapes of extended surfaces, commonly known as fins, which are used on cylinder heads of internal combustion engines. Extended surfaces are used to improve heat dissipation from the object by increasing its effective surface area. Efficient heat dissipation is very important since proper cooling of an engine cylinder head helps to maintain optimal working temperatures, improves engine performance, increases service life, …

Design And Fabrication of Contactless Magnetic Gears
Abstract: Modern engineering prioritizes speed, efficiency, and reliability, spurring innovations like contactless magnetic gear systems that transmit torque through interacting magnetic fields from permanent magnets, eliminating physical contact to drastically cut friction, backlash, wear, lubrication needs, and heat—operating silently with minimal vibration and peak efficiencies up to 99% under ideal conditions, outperforming traditional gears in low-speed, high-torque direct-drive applications such as motors. The design centers on two rotors: an outer high-speed …
