Revolutionizing Energy Systems: The Impact of Steam and Its Technological Evolution
Abstract: The problem of environmental contamination, which is important for both public health and the economy, has been addressed through a great deal of research on the sterilization and disinfection of pollutants and microorganisms. Many types of pollutants and hazardous materials, such as microorganisms and toxic gases, are discharged into the environment and can enter the human body through ingestion, adsorption, or inhalation. Numerous respiratory conditions, strokes, lung cancer, and heart …

Bio-Inspired FGPCs for Biomedical and Structural Applications
Abstract: Bio-inspired functionally graded polymer composites (FGPCs) represent a new class of smart materials that use gradient material distributions to enhance mechanical and biological properties, mimicking natural systems like bones, shells, and plant stems. FGPCs exhibit smooth gradient distributions across interfaces, which improves biocompatibility and reduces the risk of failure under complex loading and environmental conditions. In this study, bio-inspired FGPCs were designed, fabricated, and validated using a combined experimental and …

Integrative Therapeutics for Antimicrobial Resistance and Autoimmune Disease: Evidence and Pathways
Abstract: Background: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is accelerating globally, while autoimmune diseases and adverse drug reactions (ADRs) continue to rise. Ayurveda offers immunomodulatory, antimicrobial, and detoxification‑oriented interventions that may complement biomedical strategies. Objective: To propose a hypothesis‑driven integrative model combining Ayurvedic phytotherapy, panchakarma detoxification, and personalized dosha‑based care with evidence‑based medical management to mitigate AMR emergence, modulate autoimmunity, and reduce ADR incidence. Methods: A synthesis of mechanistic literature on Ayurvedic herbs with …

Dynamic Analysis of Honeycomb Sandwich Laminated Composite Plate using ANSYS
Abstract: A structural sandwich is a peculiar form of a laminated composite comprising of a combination of distinct materials which are bonded together to use effectively the properties of each separate component to the structural advantage of the whole assembly. Two thin, rigid and quite strong faces in the framework are partitioned by a thick, light and weaker core. The faces are attached adhesively to the core to ensure effective load …

SYNTHESIS, CHARACTERIZATION AND BIOMEDICAL APPLICATIONS OF A SILVER NANOPARTICLE-COATED CHITOSAN–FUCOIDAN POLYMER NANOCOMPOSITE LOADED WITH PERSEA AMERICANA LEAF EXTRACT
Abstract: Consuming a natural composite of Persea americana (Avocado) leaf extract and a chitosan and fucoidan form a biodegradable biopolymer matrix–polymer nanocomposite with biomedical applications, this study explored a potential therapeutic method. GC-MS and UV spectroscopy were used to describe the aqueous leaf extract, which was verified by phytochemical screening to contain flavonoids, tannins, phenols, terpenoids, and alkaloids. The chitosan–fucoidan biodegradable polymer matrix served as a biocompatible stabilizing and encapsulating carrier …

Flexural Response and Numerical simulation of Unidirectional Areca–Pineapple Leaf Fiber Hybrid Epoxy Composites
Abstract: The increasing demand for lightweight and environmentally sustainable materials has accelerated the development of natural fiber-reinforced polymer composites for engineering applications. In the present study, unidirectional areca and pineapple leaf fiber (PALF) reinforced hybrid epoxy composites were fabricated using a simple hand lay-up process. Before fabrication, the fibers were chemically treated to improve fiber–matrix adhesion and enhance the mechanical performance of the laminates. Four different stacking sequences (A8, A7P1, A6P2, …
