Numerical Investigation of Ply-by-Ply Failure and Strength Degradation in Composite Laminates Under Transverse Loading
Abstract: This paper represents the failure analysis of composite symmetric and antisymmetric laminate, when laminates were subjected to the transverse loading conditions. The load is uniformly distributed in a transverse direction. The analysis includes failure load and nature of failure by using theories of failure. The ply degradation material model is used to modify and update the properties of failed lamina and upgrades the properties of laminate. Laminate is modelled as …

A IoT-Enabled Predictive Intelligence for Real-Time Failure and Damage Evolution Monitoring of Polymer Composites
Abstract: Damage assessment of carbon-fibre-reinforced polymer composites is still challenging since the damage occurs as a combination of matrix cracking, interfacial debonding, delamination and fibre fracture. The present work proposes a framework for predictive-intelligence based on IoT for multiaxial fatigue and compression-after-impact (CAI) CFRP experiments, employing publicly available acoustic-emission (AE) datasets. A causal CNN–GRU attention model is developed by integrating time-domain, spectral, wavelet, loading-history and trend features to estimate the damage …

Multi-way Protection Scheme to Handle Multiple Failures for Cost-Efficient Fiber-Wireless (FiWi) Access Networks
Abstract: AbstractFiber Wireless (FiWi) access networks prove themselves as promising broadband access networks. These networks enable users to access services in “Anywhere-Anytime” fashion. FiWi networks offer higher bandwidth and better flexibility at much lower price than passive optical network. As FiWi supports high data rate (typically about Gigabits per second), any failure may results in huge data loss. Therefore, to protect such loss of data, we need to design a more …

Quality of Sleep Among Patients with Chronic Renal Failure
Abstract: Renal failure is the partial or complete impairment of kidney function. Inability to eliminate metabolic waste products and water, along with functional disruptions in all bodily systems, result in the condition known as renal failure. Renal failure can be categorized as either acute or chronic. Chronic renal failure refers to the gradual and irreversible deterioration of the nephrons in both kidneys. It is characterized by either kidney damage or a …

On The Risk of Urban Road Pavement Failure: A Case Study of Owerri, Imo State
Abstract: In this research work, we study the risk of road pavement failures in Owerri Imo State. The study deviates from other research work in this area that focused on the nature of road pavement failures without considering the risk involved with respect to human life and others. This was the aspect the study delved into. The researchers used questionnaires to collect primary data from randomly selected respondents on axle load …

Application-Driven Rule-Based Framework for Lubrication Failure Modes in Industrial Systems
Abstract: Modern lubricants increasingly rely on polymer-based composites, integrating synthetic base oils, polymer thickeners and solid additives like MoS₂ and PTFE for high-performance applications. These formulations not only enhance thermal and mechanical stability but also enable low-friction operation across diverse industrial conditions. Lubrication-related failures represent a critical cause of unplanned downtime and reduced reliability in industrial machinery. This paper presents an application-driven, rule-based framework designed to assess and mitigate lubrication failure …

SGLT2 Inhibitors in Heart Failure and Chronic Kidney Disease: Expanding Therapeutic Horizons beyond Glycemic Control
Abstract: Heart failure (HF) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are closely related clinical diseases that significantly increase morbidity and death worldwide. The co-occurrence of both conditions is frequently referred to as the "cardio-renal syndrome," in which the failure of one organ hastens the decline of the other. The original purpose of sodium–glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors was to treat type 2 diabetic mellitus (T2DM) by reducing blood sugar levels. Nevertheless, new data …

Study on Crankshaft Failure: A Review
Abstract: Crankshafts are power shafts of engines with a complex geometry having crankwebs and crankpins. Crankshafts axis is offset from the centre. It converts the linear (reciprocating) motion of pistons into a rotary motion that can be transmitted through a drive line system. A crankshaft is subjected to several forces that vary in magnitude and direction (multiaxial loading). Bending stress and shear stress due to twisting are also common stresses acting …
