This paper presents a state-of-the-art review of digital transformation for developing smart net-zero cities, highlighting the significance of systems thinking and the key components of digital transformation including people, data, technology and pr...
Drilling fluids are vital in oil and gas well operations, ensuring borehole stability, cutting removal, and pressure control. However, fluid loss into formations during drilling can compromise formation integrity, alter permeability, and risk groundw...
Using the method of moments, we analyze three array antennas for low cross-polarized radiation. Each antenna comprises two dual-loop elements connected to a feedline horizontal to the ground plane. First, a feedline end is excited with an unbalanced...
Caffeic and ferulic acids are critical phenolic compounds in coffee beans, known for their antioxidant properties and influence on coffee’s acidity. This study developed and validated a rapid and simple analytical method to quantify these acids...
Corn (Zea mays L.) productivity is often compromised by phytosanitary challenges, with fungal disease like Curvularia leaf spot being particularly significant. While synthetic fungicides are commonly used, there is growing interest in exploring alter...
The reduction of noise and vibration is possible with passive, semi-active and active control strategies. Especially where self-adaptive control is required, it is necessary to evaluate the noise reduction potential before the control approach is app...
Understanding the relationship between muscle activation and deformation is essential for analyzing arm movement dynamics in both daily activities and clinical settings. Accurate characterization of this relationship impacts rehabilitation strategies...
Agricultural productivity is increasingly threatened by plant diseases, which can spread rapidly and lead to significant crop losses if not identified early. Detecting plant diseases accurately in diverse and uncontrolled environments remains challen...
One of the major challenges of studying biomarkers in tumor samples is the low quantity and quality of isolated RNA, DNA, and proteins. Additionally, the extraction methods ideally should obtain macromolecules from the same tumor biopsy, allowing bet...
Anguilliform swimming is one of the most complex locomotion modes, involving various interacting phenomena, necessitating multidisciplinary studies. Eel robots are designed to incorporate biological principles and achieve efficient locomotion by repl...
