An In-depth Qualitative Exploration of Industrial Safety Factors Influencing Large-scale Construction Projects in India
Abstract: As the number of incidents at mega construction sites continues to rise, particularly in India, a developing nation, it is crucial to recognize the pivotal role the construction industry plays in contributing to the country’s economy. Nonetheless, this expansion has been concomitant with a concerning upsurge in accident and fatality rates within the construction industry. The aim of this study is to uncover the fundamental factors behind this trend which …

Improving Node Efficiency in Wireless Sensor Networks Using Advanced Clustering and Routing Techniques
Abstract: Many Internet of Things (IoT) applications, such as disaster relief, smart buildings, smart farming, and healthcare monitoring, have made use of wireless sensor networks (WSN). It is one of the alternatives to address different IoT difficulties in different contexts. One of the main problems with sensor networks is power efficiency. WSN operated on the Client-Server (CS) architecture in the past, however researchers suggested Mobile Agent (MA) based WSN to increase …

Optimizing Power Generation from Building Ventilation Systems: A Study on Exhaust Fan Efficiency
Abstract: Due to population growth, the world's energy consumption has increased dramatically in both wealthy and developing nations in recent years, and by 2042, it is predicted to have doubled or more. Since a few years ago, the use of innovative sustainable power sources to meet energy demands has been gradually increasing. We've chipped away at a different idea because of this. As an alternative energy source, renewable energy (RE) resources …

Intelligent Water Distribution Management using IoT
Abstract: Water plays a vital role in agriculture, making its efficient management essential for sustainable crop production. However, undetected leaks in irrigation systems can result in significant water loss, irregular watering of fields, soil degradation, and reduced crop yield. Conventional methods like manual inspection are not only labor-intensive but also ineffective in identifying leaks promptly – emphasizing the need for a smarter and automated approach to water monitoring. To address this …

Study of an Improved Quantum Particle Swarm Optimization-Based Framework for Neural Network Optimization in Modelling of Polymer Data
Abstract: The accurate forecasting of polymer viscosity at various physicochemical conditions has been quite critical due to the nonlinear interactions and interrelations between the variables. This paper suggests a better hybrid modelling framework, which involves the use of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and more advanced versions of Quantum Particle Swarm Optimization (QPSO) to better predict polymer viscosity. The input parameters taken are, namely, log (shear rate), polymer concentration, NaCl concentration, Ca …

Effect of Kineso Taping with Exercise versus Ultrasound with Exercise on Pain Relief in Acute Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Abstract: Carpal tunnel syndrome is the most frequent compression neuropathy with an estimated prevalence in the general population of 3.7–5.8%. It may be up to three times more common in women than men, with the prevalence highest in the 40–55 year old age group. Global country Malaysia has higher prevalence of CTS among nurses, dentists and other occupations with more wrist flexion movement in Malaysia. Higher prevalence was shown in respondents …

Modulation of Receptor Proteins: A Recent Paradigm in Drug Discovery and Target
Abstract: The main aim in drug discovery is to design different ligands those work on specific drug targets. However, various effective drugs work through the modulation of many proteins than single target. Advancement in system biology are establishing a phenotypic strength and a network structure, which suggests that, the excellent selective compounds may be performed less than desired clinical efficacy in comparison to multi-target drugs. In this new appreciation of the …

Influence of Corrosion on Flexural Strength of Concrete
Abstract: The large-scale infrastructure uses reinforcement concrete. It has been believed that protection to steel reinforcement by concrete is permanent. The influence of atmospheric corrosion of steel and its performance in concrete has been subject to controversy in the construction industry. Service life of reinforced concrete structure can be significantly reduced when the corrosion of reinforcing steel is initiated; the product of corrosion expands and occupies greater volume than original volume …
