The Patient’s Dilemma: An approach in Medical Decision Making using the Prisoner’s Dilemma Model and the Prospect Theory
Abstract: Prospect theory suggests that when people are faced with uncertain outcome, they may be risk seeking or aversive, depending on the utility value. While Prisoner’s dilemma shows that suboptimal choices are made if people seek their own gain only. Patients’ demand in decision making during the recent years evolved this dilemma. Through a mathematical approach and survey, the doctor-patient involvement in decision making has been explored. A hypothetical model was …

Consumer Misuse of Cosmeceuticals and Its Role in Adverse Skin Reactions
Abstract: Cosmeceuticals represent a rapidly expanding category of products positioned between cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, offering both aesthetic and therapeutic benefits. However, their widespread availability, aggressive marketing, and perception as inherently safe have contributed to increasing instances of consumer misuse. Misuse includes over-application, inappropriate combinations, prolonged unsupervised use, and use of high-potency active ingredients without dermatological guidance. Such practices have been strongly associated with a broad spectrum of adverse cutaneous reactions ranging …

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 …
