This paper outlines the numerical modeling procedure aimed at defining the guidelines for the development of a continuous microwave-assisted pilot plant for shelled almond disinfestation, as an alternative to the use of chemicals. To this end, a 3D M...

Social robots are being conceived with different characteristics and being used in different applications. The growth of social robotics benefits from advances in fabrication, sensing, and actuation technologies, as well as signal processing and arti...

Aging, degradation, or damage to internal insulation materials often contribute to transformer failures. Furthermore, combustible gases can be produced when these insulation materials experience thermal or electrical stresses. This paper presents an...

Due to the prevalent challenges of inadequate accuracy, unstandardized parameters, and suboptimal efficiency with regard to icing prediction, this study introduces an innovative online method for icing prediction based on Robust STL–BTSF and IB...

Mechanical seals ensure the internal sealing of centrifugal pumps from the surrounding environment. They are one of the most critical components in a centrifugal pump. For this reason, the condition of mechanical seals should be monitored during oper...

As technology evolves, more complex non-affine systems are created. These complex systems are hard to model, whereas most controllers require information on systems to be designed. This information is hard to obtain for systems with varying control d...

In this work, an organ pipe instrument with a mechatronic control system including the Passive Haptic Feedback technology is implemented. The test bed consists of a motorized positioning stage mounted to a brace that is attached to a bridge on a plat...

Although commercial smart speakers are becoming increasingly popular, there is still much potential for investigation into their usability. In this study, we analyzed the usability of commercial smart speakers by focusing on the learnability of young...

Within recent years, considerable progress has been made regarding high-performance solvers for partial differential equations (PDEs), yielding potential gains in efficiency compared to industry standard tools. However, the latter largely remains the...

In the early software development stages, the aim of estimation is to obtain a rough understanding of the timeline and resources required to implement a potential project. The current study is devoted to a method of preliminary estimation applicable...
