Digital Twin Assisted Intelligent Prediction of Polymer Composite Degradation Under Environmental Exposure
Abstract: Polymer matrix composites (PMCs) deployed in aerospace, marine, automotive, and renewable-energy structures are continuously subjected to coupled environmental stressors — ultraviolet (UV) radiation, moisture ingress, thermal cycling, and mechanical loading — that progressively degrade their mechanical performance. Conventional accelerated ageing tests and empirical lifetime models are time-consuming, destructive, and poorly suited to in-service, asset-specific degradation forecasting. This paper proposes a Digital Twin (DT) assisted intelligent prediction framework that fuses a …

Structure–Property-Guided Polymer–Metal Hybrid Design of a Wall Plastering Spray Assembly
Abstract: Wall plastering spray equipment requires a combination of low mass, dimensional stability, abrasion resistance, chemical compatibility with cementitious mortar, and comfortable operator interaction. The original assembly was primarily developed as a metallic mechanical system; however, a polymer-focused material architecture can reduce non-load-bearing mass while retaining a safe metallic pressure path. This study, therefore, presents a structure–property-guided polymer–metal hybrid design in which the pressure housing and nozzle insert remain metallic, whereas …

Experimental Investigation on Mechanical Characteristics of Fiber-Reinforced Concrete
Abstract: Concrete is one of the most utilized construction materials because of its excellent compressive strength and durability. Nevertheless, its relatively low tensile and flexural capacities often limit its performance in structures subjected to tensile stresses. To address this limitation, fiber reinforcement has emerged as an effective technique for enhancing the mechanical behavior of concrete. This study examines the influence of chopped basalt fibers on the strength characteristics of concrete through …

Optimization of Simulated Annealing Parameters for Bi-Criteria Multiprocessor Task Scheduling Using RSM-Grey Methodology
Abstract: AbstractSimulated Annealing (SA) has been shown as an exceptional method for finding an optimal solution to the combinatorial optimisation problems. In the present work, optimal combinations of different simulated annealing parameters have been identified by using the RSM-based grey relational analysis (GRA) for Bi-criteria multiprocessor task scheduling problem. Parameter selection is needed as SA is a meta-heuristic that does not specify all the necessary information for the optimised results. The …
