Characterization of Glass/Jute Hybrid Fibre Reinforced Epoxy Composite for Axial Flow Fan Blade
Abstract: Traditionally axial flow fan blades were manufactured by using metal alloys, but with the increase in blade size the blades grew heavier resulting in more vibrations during its working. It is impossible to manufacture the metallic blades to close tolerances making it uneconomical. Due to this dimensional instability, the metallic impeller fan blades are instead fabricated with glass fiber reinforced plastics (GFRP). To reduce the after effects of GFRP blades …

Thermal Steganography: A New Way to Steal Data from Air-Gapped Computers Using Heat and Fan Noise
Abstract: Nowadays, high-security computers are "air-gapped," meaning they are not connected to the internet to prevent hacking. Cybercriminals are increasingly using direct, physical methods to access and take data instead of relying on internet-based attacks. This paper introduces a new cybersecurity threat called Thermal-Secret. Most existing heat-based attacks are very slow and fail if the room temperature changes. To solve this, we developed a Slope-Based method. Instead of looking at how …
