ABSTRACT Genome engineering plays a crucial role in the rapidly growing fields of metabolic engineering and synthetic biology. Chromosomal integration and stable expression of functional genes or large metabolic pathways...

Abstract Effective evacuation strategies are critical for preventing stampedes in large-scale, high-density crowd management. This paper develops a second-order sliding mode controller within a distributed parameter syst...

The primary objective of this study was to compare the density-based (OPTICS-Ordering Points To Identify the Clustering Structure) and graph-based (Spectral Clustering) algorithms for identifying Normalized Difference Ve...

Culverts play a critical role in stormwater conveyance, roadway safety, and flood mitigation, particularly within low-lying urban communities vulnerable to extreme rainfall events. In Louisiana, increased rainfall intens...

Urbanization and climate change are rapidly transforming metropolitan environments, posing serious challenges to sustainable development, climate resilience, and disaster risk management, Among these challenges, concern,...

Abstract Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a reliable solid-state joining technique for aluminium alloys, where conventional fusion welding often causes porosity, solidification cracking, and excessive heat-affected softeni...

Abstract The productivity decline of technological wells during in situ leaching (ISL) is primarily associated with clogging of well filters and the near-filter zone, leading to a significant increase in hydraulic resist...

Abstract GIS (Gas-insulated switchgear) is a critical component of modern power grids, and accurate awareness of its internal insulation condition is essential to power system safety. PD (Partial Discharge) is a key indi...

Photoacoustic tomography (PAT) is a hybrid medical imaging technique that offers both high contrast and a high spatial resolution. One challenging mathematical problem associated with PAT is reconstructing the initial pr...

This study presents an integrated geophysical approach for shallow subsurface characterization using seismic refraction and Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) at the Florida Atlantic University Boca Preserve. A 240 m transec...

Abstract Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF) offers high flexibility for producing complex sheet metal components. However, simultaneous high formability and high surface integrity remain problematic with aluminium a...

The shift from conventional irrigation methods to sprinkler systems is intended to improve accuracy and efficiency; however, it requires thorough validation of the uniformity of water distribution. This research focuses ...

Abstract The multicomponent thermal fluid (MTF) process is a pivotal technology for enhancing heavy oil recovery. However, its injection often triggers particle migration and deposition within reservoirs, leading to perm...

Environmental justice communities across the United States continue to experience disproportionate exposure to industrial pollution, particularly in regions dominated by petrochemical infrastructure. The Alsen / St. Irma...

The Gulf Coast region of Louisiana hosts one of the highest concentrations of petrochemical industries in the United States, contributing substantially to national economic output while simultaneously posing severe envir...

Abstract In structural engineering, the behavior and strength of reinforced concrete haunched beams (RCHBS) are crucial, especially when shear strength governs design. Despite the advantages of RCHBS, several building co...

Abstract Semi-autogenous grinding (SAG) mill performance prediction remains limited by empirical calibration requirements in conventional population balance models. This study presents a structured dynamic framework inte...

Abstract The precise forecasting of the Remaining Useful Life (RUL, expressed in hours) of aircraft engine-like systems using a synthetic dataset designed to mimic real engine degradation patterns is a key factor in sett...

Monitoring algal blooms in shallow eutrophic lakes remains challenging due to subtle biomass signals and interference from bottom reflectance and high suspended sediment loads. Utah Lake, a large eutrophic and highly tur...

Arid and semi-arid lands (ASALs) like Marsabit and Isiolo Counties in Kenya face significant water scarcity, necessitating accurate mapping of surface water resources. Even with mostly dry and arid conditions in these re...

Soil erosion is a major problem, which has had adverse effects on the productivity of agriculture, the quality of water, and the sustainability of land in the long term, especially in semi-arid states of southern India. ...

Global Navigation Satellite System Radio Occultation (GNSS-RO) offers a unique means of retrieving vertical atmospheric profiles with high precision and global coverage. This study investigates the spatiotemporal charact...

Gold mining plays a central role in Ghana’s national economy. However, conventional exploration approaches, particularly within artisanal and small‑scale mining sectors, often rely on trial‑and‑error methods ...

Virtual reality (VR) is one of the most common technologies nowadays, which make a virtual environment exactly similar to the real environment. The purpose behind this is to test several issues (designing or manufacturin...
