Prediction of Weld Dilution Control by Advanced Gas Metal Arc Welding Process
Abstract: This work experimentally investigates the amount of reduction in Weld Dilution by using a comparatively new Advanced Gas Metal Arc Welding Process (AGMAW). The process represents GMAW process having a controllable pre-heating arrangement. The AGMAW process is used to break the fixed relationship between welding current and wire feed rate by using a separate power source, which preheats a certain section of wire (by I2R heating) before it emerges out …

Unified Mass–Energy Dissolution Cosmology (UMEDC): A Staged Framework for Cosmic Energy Transformation and Late-Time Acceleration
Abstract: The ΛCDM model successfully describes the universe’s expansion but remains fundamentally descriptive: it assigns fixed densities to matter, dark matter, and dark energy without providing a unifying physical mechanism behind their coexistence or evolution. In this work, we introduce the Unified Mass–Energy Dissolution Cosmology (UMEDC), a novel framework based on the staged transformation M → DM → DE, where ordinary matter gradually dissolves into a dark-matter-like reservoir, which subsequently transforms …

Optimal Abrasive Jet Machining Parameters for Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastics
Abstract: Abrasive jet machining (AJM) is a best choice for processing of glass fiber reinforced plastics (GFRP). Inherent to the nonlinear behavior of performance characteristics during repeated experiments are inevitable variations, attributed to measurement errors and unknown influencing input variables. This study employs the Taguchi method with an orthogonal array to systematically identify optimal input variables through a limited number of experiments. The paper introduces a direct and reliable Taguchi-based multi-objective …

A Comprehensive Review on Comparative Study of Different Techniques of Dispersion Compensation
Abstract: AbstractOptical fiber communication (OFC) provides high bit rate data communication. There are various types of impairments and signal degradation mechanisms which are involved with this highspeed communication system. In case of long distance communication, the most prominent impairment is dispersion. Dispersion affects the information signal very badly when it travels along a long distance. There are different techniques available to compensate dispersion. In this paper, the various methods of dispersion …

Reducing the Dimensional Dependence for Rank-based Similarity Search
Abstract: In this paper, we try to introduce a data structure for k-NN search, the Rank Cover Tree (RCT). The pruning tests for RCT rely on the comparison of similarity values not on the other properties of the underlying space, such as the triangle inequality. Objects are selected according to their ranks with respect to the query object, allowing much tighter control on the overall execution costs. Theoretical analysis shows that …

Corrosion Characterisation of Low Alloy CrMoV Steel Before and After Cryogenic Heat Therapy
Abstract: Low alloy CrMoV steel is used in Turbine wheels, Distance pieces, Compressor aft shafts etc of Gas Turbines. Cryogenic heat treatment was used to examine the effects on the corrosion resistance of low alloy CrMoV steel. In order to eliminate residual stresses and boost wear resistance in steels and other metal alloys, cryogenic heat treatment (CHT) employs cryogenic temperatures (i.e., below - 190°C) to treat work parts. Cryogenic treatment is …

Description of Amraz-E-Gosh (Ear Diseases) in Unani and Modern Perspective: A Review
Abstract: The human ear is tremendously complex and amazingly designed organ meant primarily for hearing and balancing the body. In Unani terminology, it is known as Uzuemudarikfaslat (distance receptor organ). In classical Unani literature, diseases of the ear are well described and are called as Amraze Gosh like Tarash (impaired hearing), Waqr and Samum (deafness), Wajauluzn (ear ache), Tanin-o-Dawi (tinnitus), Siqle Sama’at (reduced hearing), Hikkatuluzn (itching in ear) Sansanahat (ringing of …

Covariance based Clustering for Digital Image Compression
Abstract: Traditionally clustering is done based on distance between the data points and the cluster centroids. A new type of clustering based on distance between the covariance matrices of the clustered data points was recently introduced. This allows clustering data points according to their spatial distribution model. This paper presents an improved algorithm for the computation of covariance based clustering with application to digital image compression. Karhunen-Loeve Transform is an optimal …

Thin-Film Quantum Photonic Technologies for Quantum Teleportation
Abstract: One of the most important protocols in distributed quantum computing and quantum communication is quantum teleportation, which allows quantum information to be sent between distant nodes without actually sending the quantum particle. The teleportation process is fundamentally based on quantum entanglement, Bell state measurements, and classical communication channels, which collectively allow the accurate reconstruction of an unknown quantum state at a remote location. In recent years, rapid progress in integrated …

An Aggregate-Breakage Percolation Model and ANN-Based Internal Validation for Curvature-Dependent Electrical Conductivity of MWCNT/TPU Nanocomposites
Abstract: Strain-dependent percolation models are mostly built and tested for uniaxial tension, yet many flexible sensors and stretchable devices work mainly in bending, where the outer fibre is stretched, the inner fibre is compressed and the strain changes with thickness. This study extends an aggregate-breakage percolation model, originally formulated for uniaxial strain, to through-thickness bending of a multi-walled carbon nanotube/thermoplastic polyurethane (MWCNT/TPU) nanocomposite. The local strain is taken as ε(y) = …
