Biologging refers to the use of animal-borne recording devices to study wildlife behavior. In the case of audio recording, such devices generate large amounts of data over several months, and thus require some level of processing automation for the r...
In the in-line four-cylinder engine, it is well known that the shaking force is due to the vertical second harmonic acceleration components of the pistons. This paper proposes a kinematic conceptual design method to determine the kinematic structure...
This research work aims to compare the strength and fracture mechanics properties of plain concretes, obtained from different coarse aggregates. During the study, mechanical parameters including compressive strength (fcm) and splitting tensile streng...
Post-thickener polymer addition to initiate rapid tailings dewatering has gained considerable interest for tailings storage facility (TSF) management. However, the highly viscous and non-Newtonian rheology of dense suspensions presents unique challen...
Objectives: This study aims to develop a tablet press machine (TPM) integrated with machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) models for in-line detection of defective tablets as a Process Analytical Technology (PAT) tool. This study aimed to pred...
In this paper, five groups of C40 fly ash and silica fume self-compacting concrete (SCC) mix proportion tests and in-line multi-cavity steel tube bundle self-compacting concrete shear wall axial compression performance tests and numerical simulation...
Carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is a key technology for decarbonizing existing or newly designed fossil fuel power plants, which in the short to medium term remains essential to offset the variability of nonprogrammable renewable sour...
Background: The pharmaceutical industry is shifting from end-product testing towards real-time release testing. This approach is based on the continuous collection of process data and product information, which is finally utilized for the release dec...
An in-line digital optical sensor was proposed. It was built from a tapered depressed-cladding single-mode fiber and modeled as a coaxial Mach–Zehnder interferometer. The principle of operation of the optical digital sensor is based on the comp...
This study describes an innovative in-line near-infrared (NIR) process monitoring method for the quantification of the total polyphenolic content (TPC) of Ajuga genevensis dry extracts. The dry extract was obtained in a fluidized bed processor, by sp...
This study examines the geotechnical and hydro-mechanical behaviour of a model slurry used in high-solids, high-salinity applications, both before and after inline flocculation with an anionic polyacrylamide. Initial evaluations showed untreated tail...
Eggshell strength is a critical quality factor for consumption eggs as it affects the probability of breakage in practice. In this study, a fast and low-cost methodology for the non-destructive determination of eggshell strength is presented. The met...
The range-Doppler algorithm (RDA), a key technique for generating synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images, offers high-resolution images but requires significant memory resources and involves complex signal processing. Moreover, the multitude of fast F...
The challenge in the field of inertial confinement fusion (ICF) research is related to the study of alternative schemes for fuel ignition on laser systems of medium and megajoule scales. At the moment, it is considered promising to use the method of...

Sustainability and limitations in embedded reinforcement are the main obstacles in digital fabrication with concrete. This study proposed a 3D printable fiber-reinforced calcined clay-limestone-based cementitious material (FR-LC3). The binder systems...
After harvesting and drying, areca nut (betel nut) processing requires shell cracking and separation of the kernel from the shell. Conventional processing often relies on manual sorting or additional separation machines after husking. To address this...
An accurate estimation of pipe attributes, pose of pipeline inspection gauge (PIG), and downstream pipeline topology is essential for successful in-line inspection (ILI) of underground compressible gas pipelines. Taking a 3D point cloud of light dete...
In the present study, the effects of Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) and turbo-compound (T/C) system integration on a heavy-duty diesel engine (HDDE) is investigated. An inline six-cylinder turbocharged 11.5 liter compression ignition (CI) engine employi...
A conventional approach to making miniature or microscale gas chromatography (GC) components relies on silicon as a base material and MEMS fabrication as manufacturing processes. However, these devices often fail in medium-to-high temperature applica...
Preparative chromatography is a well-established operation in chemical and biotechnology manufacturing. Chromatography achieves high separation performances, but often has to deal with the yield versus purity trade-off as the optimization criterium r...
A range extender (RE) is a device used in electric vehicles (EVs) to generate electricity on-board, enabling them to significantly reduce the number of required batteries and/or extend the vehicle driving range to allow occasional long trips. In the...
