Spectral Intuitionistic Fuzzy Hypergraph Operators and Dominance Kernels for Resilient Discrete Network Design
Abstract: A new discrete-mathematical framework is developed for resilient network design on intuitionistic fuzzy hypergraphs, where uncertainty is explicitly represented through membership, non-membership, and hesitation degrees associated with both vertices and hyperedges. These three components are systematically integrated into an effective incidence operator that captures the underlying uncertain relationships within complex hypergraph structures. Based on this operator, both un-normalised and normalized Laplacian matrices are formulated to characterize the spectral properties and …

SU-8 Polymer as an Optical Waveguide for Integrated Optics
Abstract: Abstract: Optical integrated circuits analogous to electronic integration have many advantages over the latter technology. As information carriers are photons (bosons) in optical circuits rather than electrons (fermions), which maximize the speed as well as due to minimum mutual interaction between photons, losses are reduced whereas the band-width increases. Silicon is most dominant material in fabrication of Electronic Integrated Circits (EICs), Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs) exploits the suitable optical properties …

Development of an Intelligent and Statistical Model for Prediction of Rock Mass Deformation Modulus
Abstract: The rock mass deformation modulus (Em) takes into account the plastic and the elastic deformation of the rock mass. It has been widely used for designing structures such as dams, tunnels, caverns, and mines, etc. Since the tests available for ascertaining Em are expensive and time consuming, several equations were suggested in the past. However, it has been found that the existing models are limited to specific type of rock …
