This article elaborates on an off-shell formulation of D = 4, N = 1 supergravity whose auxiliary fields comprise an antisymmetric tensor field without gauge degrees of freedom. In particular, the relation to new minimal supergravity, a supercovariant...
Adinkras are graphs that encode a supersymmetric representation’s transformation laws that have been reduced to one dimension, that of time. A goal of the supersymmetry “genomics” project is to classify all 4D,
In this study, we develop quantum measurement theory for quantum systems described by C
This paper presents a finite element implementation of plates and shells for the analysis of flexible multibody systems. The developments are set within the framework of the motion formalism that (1) uses configuration and motion to describe the kine...
Chitosan (CH)–carboxymethyl cellulose sodium salt (NaCMC) microcapsules containing paraffin oil were synthesized by complex formation, and crosslinked with glutaraldehyde (GTA). The electrostatic deposition of NaCMC onto the CH-coated paraffin...
We deduce a non-linear commutator higher-spin (HS) symmetry algebra which encodes unitary irreducible representations of the AdS group—subject to a Young tableaux
We develop the BRST approach to construct the general off-shell local Lorentz covariant cubic interaction vertices for irreducible massless and massive higher spin fields on d-dimensional Minkowski space. We consider two different cases for interacti...
In this paper, a four-node composite cylindrical shell finite element model based on Love’s first approximation theory is proposed to solve the nonlinear vibration of the hard-coating cylindrical shell efficiently. The developed model may have great...
The unique lignocellulosic and solvent-extractive chemical constituents of most natural fibers are rich in natural polymers and bioactive molecules that can be exploited for biomaterial formulation. However, although natural fibers’ main constituents...
Postmenopausal estrogen deficiency induces complex physiological alterations, notably osteoporosis and metabolic dysfunction. This study investigated the effect of High Active Calcium (HAC) using in vitro and ovariectomized (OVX) rat models. In vitro...
Single-layer reticulated shell structures are widely used, but their stability performance is not ideal. Moreover, they are sensitive to structural damage and imperfections, while the existing conventional design methods of increasing the cross-secti...
Several applications of nanofiber-based systems are based on their corresponding functionality-related properties, which often cannot be satisfied by a fiber web with a monolithic structure because of the various physicochemical properties and amount...
In this study, we develop bio-epoxy composites incorporating bio-oils obtained from the pyrolysis of almond and walnut shells at 400 °C and 600 °C, with the aim of evaluating their potential as renewable precursors for epoxy resin modificatio...
This study explores novel alginate–konjac glucomannan core–shell aerogel particles for drug delivery systems fabricated via air-assisted coaxial prilling. A systematic approach is needed for the optimization of this method due to the nume...
An efficient and selective drug delivery vehicle for cancer cells can remarkably improve therapeutic approaches. In this study, we focused on the synthesis and characterization of magnetic Ni1−xCoxFe2O4 nanoparticles (NPs) coated with two layer...
Agricultural residues offer opportunities to reduce virgin polymer consumption, although balancing mechanical performance, thermal stability, and processability in multicomponent composites remains challenging. This study developed high-density polye...
This work presents a novel methodology for the accurate and efficient elastic deformation reconstruction of thin-walled and stiffened structures from discrete strains. It builds on the inverse finite element method (iFEM), a variationally-based shape...
Rhodopseudomonas palustris (RP) are known anaerobic bacteria with probiotic properties containing several bioactive compounds and enzymes that benefit aquatic animals. However, studies on the use of RP on aquatic animal species are limited. This stud...
