On the Pendant Number of Some New Graph Classes
Abstract: AbstractA decomposition of a graph is a collection of its edge disjoint sub-graphs such that their union is . If all the sub-graphs in the decomposition are paths, then it is a path decomposition. In this paper, we discuss the pendant number, the minimum number of end vertices of paths in a path decomposition of a graph. We also determine this parameter for some graph classes.Keywords: Decomposition, path decomposition, pendant …

Decomposition of Dynamic Graphs in Memory Saving with Effective Programming
Abstract: This study proposes a simple and effective heuristic to save memory in effective programming on tree decompositions when solving a graph optimization problem. The introduced “anchor technique” is based on a tree-like set covering problem. We substantiated our findings by experimental results. Our strategy has negligible computational overhead concerning running time but achieves memory savings for nice tree decompositions and path decompositions between 60% and 98%.

Integrated Polarimetric-Interferometric Fusion for Heterogeneous Urban Signature Extraction
Abstract: Mapping heterogeneous urban environments using conventional Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) backscatter intensity frequently produces classification errors due to spectral similarity between sparse built-up features, bare soil, and dry vegetation a challenge especially acute in semi-arid Deccan Plateau settings. This research presents a dual-path Pol- InSAR fusion framework that integrates polarimetric scattering decomposition and interferometric coherence stability to extract heterogeneous urban signatures over Beed Taluka, Maharashtra (area: 1,561.31 km²). A temporal …

Dynamic Mechanical Analysis of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer Composites
Abstract: This study investigates the thermal decomposition and mechanical properties of Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Composites (FRPCs) using Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA). The research focuses on improving the recycling and recovery process of Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymers (CFRPs), addressing environmental concerns regarding their disposal. By analyzing the effects of different heating rates (5°C and 10°C per minute) and atmospheric conditions (nitrogen, oxygen, and a combination of both), the study identifies optimal parameters for maximizing …

Advanced Functional Nanocomposites: Graphene Oxide Integration into Polyvinyl Alcohol Matrix
Abstract: This research explores how incorporating graphene oxide (GO) into polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) can improve its mechanical and thermal characteristics, with the goal of creating multifunctional nanocomposites suitable for advanced technological applications. GO was introduced into the PVA matrix at 0.5, 1, and 2 wt% via a scalable solution casting method. The resulting nanocomposites were characterized mechanically, thermally, and spectroscopically. Tensile testing revealed a significant improvement in mechanical performance, with tensile …

Gold Nanoparticle Size, Biodistribution, and Toxicity: Insights from DualEnergy CT
Abstract: Dual-energy and spectral computed tomography (CT) have emerged as powerful platforms for noninvasive, quantitative mapping of nanoparticle biodistribution in vivo. By exploiting the energy-dependent attenuation profiles of high-atomic-number (high-Z) materials, these systems enable material decomposition and element-specific imaging, thereby distinguishing nanoparticle signals from those of soft tissues and conventional iodinated contrast agents. Photon-counting spectral CT further enhances this capability by binning individual photons into multiple energy channels, improving spatial resolution, …

Exploring Type-II Diabetes Potential of Phyto-Derived Carbon Dots
Abstract: The integration of phytoconstituents with carbon dots (C-dots) presents a novel and sustainable approach to the development of nanotherapeutics for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). C-dots, zero-dimensional carbon-based nanomaterials, exhibit unique physicochemical properties including high fluorescence, tunable surface chemistry, biocompatibility, and low toxicity. Their ability to enhance the solubility, bioavailability, and targeted delivery of poorly soluble phytochemicals renders them highly suitable for biomedical applications. This study explores the synthesis of …

Study on GP Zones Formation in the Sc Inoculated Ternary Al-Zn-Mg Alloys
Abstract: Mostly, ternary Al-Zn-Mg (7075) alloys are used in automotive and aerospace engineering due to readily age-hardening response and high specific strength-to-density ratio. Scandium (Sc) has great inoculation effect in Al-Zn-Mg alloys. The cast Al-Zn-Mg alloys system undergoes a complex transition sequence in order to gain maximum strength. This sequence consists of solutionizing then immediate quenching in water (T4), natural ageing and artificial ageing (T6); usually, in several temperature steps to …
