Holographic Beam Switching and Intelligent Routing for Terahertz Space-Air-Ground Integrated Networks
Abstract: The rapid evolution of sixth-generation (6G) and beyond communication technologies necessitates highly adaptive, ultra-high-capacity, and low-latency networking frameworks capable of supporting global connectivity across terrestrial and non-terrestrial domains. This study proposes a novel holographic beam switching and intelligent routing framework for terahertz (THz) Space-Air-Ground Integrated Networks (SAGINs). The proposed architecture leverages holographic beamforming techniques to dynamically manipulate electromagnetic wavefronts, enabling precise beam steering, reduced interference, and enhanced spectral efficiency in …

Recent Advancements and Layering Techniques in Nanoparticle-Reinforced Hybrid Composites: A Comprehensive Analysis
Abstract: This review examines the advancements in nanoparticle-reinforced fiber composites, focusing on natural fibers, synthetic fibers, hybrid composites, and fiber metal laminates (FMLs). Nanoparticles such as SiO₂, TiO₂, Al₂O₃, and graphene, introduced at 0.5–3% volume, have significantly enhanced mechanical, thermal, and wear properties. Comparative studies reveal that hybrid composites reinforced with 1–2% nanoparticles show a 20-30% increase in tensile strength and a 15-25% improvement in thermal stability compared to non-reinforced composites. …

Unraveling Mixed Ionic-Electronic Conduction in Lithium-Substituted Rubidium Tetra Titanates via Dielectric Spectroscopy and EPR Analysis
Abstract: Lithium-substituted Rubidium Tetra Titanates with varying concentrations of lithium carbonate (Li₂CO₃) — specifically 0.01, 0.05, and 0.1 molar percentages — were successfully synthesized using a conventional high-temperature solid-state reaction method. The resulting compounds follow the general chemical formula Rb₂₋ₓLiₓTi₄O₉. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed that lithium ions were successfully incorporated into the crystal lattice without disrupting the fundamental layered structure of the host material. The crystal system remained monoclinic across …

Antidiabetic Potential of Bryophyllum pinnatum: A Study on its Pharmacological Effects and Synergistic Action with Glibenclamide
Abstract: Diabetes is a long-term metabolic disorder that profoundly impacts an individual’s overall health, social interactions, and quality of life. While significant progress has been made in diabetes management with the use of medications such as insulin and oral hypoglycemic agents, the limitations of these existing treatments highlight the need for new therapeutic alternatives. Moreover, the high cost of current diabetes medications makes them inaccessible to many, particularly in rural areas …

IoT-Based Motor Protection and Control System Using PLC and ESP8266
Abstract: Because of their straightforward design and affordable price, single-phase induction motors are frequently utilized in residential and small-scale industrial settings. However, conventional direct-on-line (DOL) control provides fixed-speed operation and offers limited protection against thermal overload and fault conditions. This article describes the design and implementation of an ESP8266 Node MCU-based PLC- based closed-loop motor control system with Internet of Things features. To increase operating flexibility and maintenance efficiency, the suggested …

Variations of Macroplastics in Water and Sediments at Bundu Waterfront, Upper Bonny Estuary, Rivers State, Nigeria
Abstract: Macroplastic pollution has become an increasingly severe environmental challenge, particularly in urban waterfronts where waste management is inadequate. Bundu Waterfront of the Upper Bonny Estuary in Port Harcourt, Rivers State is a sink for macroplatics from careless disposal of solid wastes and inadequate management thus affecting the biological integrity and aquatic life of this estuary. The resultant impact of the macroplastics on abiotic factors through the evaluation of different floating …
