The cutting temperature in hard turning is extremely high, which reduces tool life, lowers machined-surface quality, and affects dimensional control. However, hard turning differs greatly from conventional turning in that the cutting process mainly h...

Location data collected from mobile devices via global positioning system often lack semantic information and can form sparse trajectories in space and time. This study investigates whether user age groups can be accurately classified solely from suc...

In order to address the safety construction issues of tunnels in karst areas, this study investigated the stability and instability time prediction of the roof of karst tunnels based on catastrophe theory. By establishing a discrimination equation fo...

In contemporary business environments, manufacturing companies must continuously enhance their performance to ensure competitiveness. Material feeding systems are of pivotal importance in the optimization of productivity, with attendant improvements...

In light of the issues associated with the laying process of transmission line cables, including concealed security risks and contact collisions between pulleys and cables, which primarily stem from reliance on drawings, this paper introduces a simul...

In online services, password-based authentication, a prevalent method for user verification, is inherently vulnerable to keyboard input data attacks. To mitigate these vulnerabilities, image-based authentication methods have been introduced. However,...

Mangrove forests play a crucial role in coastal ecosystem protection and carbon sequestration processes. However, monitoring remains challenging due to the forests’ complex spatial distribution characteristics. This study addresses three key ch...

More distributed energy resources are being integrated into microgrid systems, making scheduling more complex and challenging. In order to achieve the utilization of renewable energy and peak load shifting on a microgrid system, an optimal scheduling...

In this study, the ANSYS 2020R1 software simulation is employed to examine the diffusion process of oil leakage and the underground water solute transport law in the Dashagou Yellow River crossing section of the oil pipeline. The simulation results d...

Photodetectors (PDs) based on 4H silicon carbide (SiC) have garnered significant interest due to their exceptional optoelectronic properties. However, their photoresponse is typically restricted to the ultraviolet (UV) region, with limited light abso...
