Rice production faces major challenges, notably unpredictable weather and pest attacks. The duration of sun drying depends on the climate and weather: if the weather is clear and the sun shines fully throughout the day, ...

In controlling DC-DC buck converters, the issue of input uncertainties as well as load uncertainties is one of the important challenges in controller design. This paper addresses this issue as well as presents a new robu...

IntroductionA research gap exists regarding the association between non-optimal ambient temperature (NOAT) and early childhood development (ECD) in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This study investigates the as...

Abstract Background Digital health interventions offer a promising opportunity to innovate traditional cessation services. Multi-component digital approaches show potential for greater effectiveness than traditional meth...

Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) orchestration faces critical challenges in managing the Service Quality Index (SQI), Fleet Utilization Ratio (FUR), and Dynamic Pricing Index (DPI) under uncertain and time-varying urban dema...

Abstract This paper proposes an integrated and optimally tuned photovoltaic water pumping system (PVWPS) with high performance and operational stability under variable climatic conditions. The pumping process starts with...

This paper proposes an innovative model-free deep reinforcement learning-based controller (RL-C) for a grid-connected 5-level packed-U-cell (PUC5) multilevel inverter (MLI). The controller is designed to deliver a high-q...

Abstract Unmanned aerial vehicles, particularly quadrotors, present significant control challenges due to their nonlinear, underactuated, and coupled dynamics. This paper presents a comprehensive modeling approach for a ...

Indoor hydroponics offers a promising pathway toward sustainable urban agriculture, but its effectiveness depends on precise environmental control. This study presents a compact, energy-efficient hydroponic system that u...

This study presents pioneering research addressing the challenge of surrounding rock control in gob-side entry retaining by roof cutting under the conditions of a gently inclined coal seam with an extra-thick main roof r...

ObjectiveLimestone water hazards in coal seam floors represent one of the two primary categories of mine water hazards in China. Limestone aquifers are generally characterized by abundant static water reserves and consid...

Background: The burden of infections in dialysis facilities continues to rise worldwide. Due to the invasive procedures associated with haemodialysis (HD), patients undergoing HD in dialysis facilities are at high risk ...

"This paper proposes a control strategy that mitigates the cross contamination of H2 and O2 in a high-pressure alkaline electrolyzer, which consequently increases the supplied gases purity. In order to reduce the diffusi...

"This paper proposes two control strategies that mitigate the cross contamination of H2 and O2 in a high-pressure alkaline electrolyzer, which consequently increases the supplied gases purity: one based on a decoupled PI...

This brief addressed the control design problem for a bilinear dynamical system with two approaches. The first approach is proportional-integral passivity-based control theory (PI-PBC), and the second control approach is...

Introduction Osteoarthritis is a frequent degenerative joint disease, affecting older individuals in particular. When non-surgical treatment options are no longer effective or warranted, surgical options include single c...

Abstract Objective Posterior communicating artery aneurysm(PCoAA) exhibit complex anatomical relationships, and microsurgical clipping of large or posteromedially projecting aneurysms remains technically challenging w...

This study aims to analyze the implementation of work activity programs for inmates at the Metro Class IIA Correctional Institution in supporting the main objective of the correctional system, namely social reintegration...

Abstract We propose a method that enables large language models (LLMs) to control embodied agents through the generation of control policies that directly map continuous observation vectors to continuous action vectors. ...

Abstract Background Volatile anesthetics are widely used for sedation in intensive care. Being potent greenhouse gases, their efficient utilization is imperative. We investigated whether the efficiency of anesthetic refl...

This study addresses the under-explored dynamic characteristics of unmanned ships in trajectory planning by constructing a constraint space in the navigation state-phase plane. First, we employ a path-velocity decoupling...

Abstract BackgroundTripterygium glycoside tablets (TGTs), a traditional Chinese medicine–based therapy and a type of conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (csDMARD), have shown promise...

Abstract This study was conducted to investigate the effects of the addition levels of a phosphate replacer blend in ground pork sausages. The phosphate replacer consisted of 0.2% oyster shell calcium powder, 0.3% egg sh...

The current slot allocation mechanism in Brazil, based on the International Air Transport Association (IATA) rules, and its supplementary local regulation The National Civil Aviation Agency (ANAC), displays a few issues ...
