Multi-Layer Aluminum–Polymer Hybrid Structures for Improved Automotive Impact Performance
Abstract: Layered metal–polymer hybrid laminates have emerged as promising candidates for lightweight automotive structures requiring high impact resistance and structural reliability. In this study, aluminum/glass–epoxy hybrid laminates were fabricated using a symmetric stacking sequence through hot compression molding to evaluate their mechanical and energy absorption performance. Density analysis revealed an average measured density of 2.34 g/cm³, closely matching the theoretical value of 2.36 g/cm³, with a deviation of approximately 1.02%, indicating …

Effects of Plasticizer DI-(2 Ethylhexyl) Phthalate on Liver Enzymes of Adult Male Albino Rats
Abstract: AbstractDi-(2 Ethylhexyl) Phthalate (DEHP) is a common plasticizer used to make the plastic products more flexible. It is quite harmful as tested on other animal models and is carcinogenic too. The liver is the major organ for detoxification in body and is therefore affected first due to intake of any toxicant. The liver enzymes are good parameter to assess any such hepatic damage. In the present study, the acute toxicity …

Comparative Efficacy and Safety of Safinamide and Rasagiline in the Treatment of Parkinson’s Disease: A Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review
Abstract: Background: Recent studies have suggested Rasagiline and Safinamide monotherapy as potential management options for Parkinson’s disease. Parkinson’s disease, a neurological disorder characterized by tremors and movement difficulties, necessitates treatments aimed at managing clinical symptoms. Levodopa remains the primary effective treatment for Parkinson’s disease symptoms; however, its long-term use often leads to motor complications in many patients. Additional therapeutic drugs, such as dopamine agonists and monoamine oxidase B inhibitors, including Safinamide …

Selection of Optimal Threshold in Digital Images using Collision Entropy and Min Entropy
Abstract: AbstractImage segmentation partitions an image into multiple segments based on properties of discontinuity and similarity. Thresholding is one of the important methods for image segmentation. It is used to discriminate foreground from the background of an image. The selection of suitable threshold value in the image is a challenging task. Thresholding value depends upon the randomness of intensity distribution of the image. Entropy is a parameter to measure the randomness …
