Opis:
In this paper, the geometric distribution parameter is estimated under a type-I censoring scheme by means of the Bayesian estimation approach. The Beta and Kumaraswamy informative priors, as well as five loss functions are used for this purpose. Expressions of Bayes estimators and Bayes risks are derived under the Squared Error Loss Function (SELF), the Quadratic Loss Function (QLF), the Precautionary Loss Function (PLF), the Simple Asymmetric Precautionary Loss Function (SAPLF), and the DeGroot Loss Function (DLF) using the two aforementioned priors. The prior densities are obtained through prior predictive distributions. Simulation studies are carried out to make comparisons using Bayes risks. Finally, a real-life data example is used to verify the model’s efficiency.

Opis:
Oltu-stone, a semi-precious stone found in Erzurum's Oltu area, is commonly utilized in the creation of decorative ornaments. More than 90% of the Oltu-stone mined is classified as Oltu-stone waste, consisting of poor Oltu-stone due to mineral impurities and small fragment sizes (OW). This waste is thrown or burnt, resulting in financial losses. Such losses might be reduced by using Oltu-stone waste (OW) instead of standard Oltu-stone (SO). The purpose of this study was to convert Oltu-stone waste into a useful pressed product. It was cleaned using the float-sink method with a density of 1.25 g.cm-3 and then utilized for binderless high-pressure agglomeration to create pressed Oltu-stone. The physical, mechanical, microscopic, and spectroscopic characteristics of the material were investigated. The bulk density of pressed Oltu-stone was reported to be 1.22-1.26 g.cm-3. However, with the same pressing time, indirect tensile strength was identical and varied when the pressing time was changed. The surface morphology of the crushed Oltu-stone revealed that it was more intact and had a less porous structure. Oltu-stone includes a lot of volatile matter and aliphatic carbon structures because of its high liptinite content. An FTIR investigation revealed that altering the pressing time affects the chemical structure but not the pressure. This effect was seen in molecules containing oxygen, namely conjugated carbonyl and carboxylic groups. It was discovered that pressed Oltu-stone has nearly identical properties to standard Oltu-stone and could be produced on a large scale commercially.

The study was aimed to characterize the antioxidant and anti-microbial activities of Cynodon dactylon with special reference on its precise biochemical analysis. Physiological analysis that total carotenoids content (0.3884 ± 0.0172 mg/g), total chlorophyll content (6.1460 ± 0.2915 mg/g), total phenolic contents (13.4703 ± 0.1494 mg/g), chlorophyll a (3.7708 ± 0.1528 mg/g, catalase (CAT) contents (40.2844 ± 0.1515 units/ mg), total anthocyanin contents (5.0166 ± 0.2966 g–1 FW) total soluble proteins (2.9916 ± 0.1734 mg/g) and total flavonoids content (TFC) (4.7863 ± 0.0442 μg/g) was found higher in the leaves of the Cynodon dactylon whereas, chlorophyll b (2.4881 ± 0.1326 mg/g) was found higher in the stem of Cynodon dactylon, while, peroxidase (POD) contents (81.8763 ± 4.6609 units/mg) and superoxidase dismutase (SOD) activity (80.4346 ± 5.9367 units/mg) was investigated higher in roots of Cynodon dactylon. The anti-microbial activity of Cynodon dactylon extracts was performed using a good diffusion technique against two microbial strains. Among all the plant extracts, the methanolic extracts showed a maximum inhibition zone (26.87 mm) against anti-bacterial strain Escherichia coli whereas n-hexane extract showed a maximum inhibition zone (17.88 mm) against anti-fungal strain Candida albicans. This study reported the antimicrobial activity of Cynodon dactylon against some common pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Candida albicans, which are highly associated with nosocomial infection. From the given results it is concluded that Cynodon dactylon could be exploited in pharmacology due to its antioxidant and anti-microbial properties.

Opis:
Leaf diseases may harm plants in different ways, often causing reduced productivity and, at times, lethal consequences. Detecting such diseases in a timely manner can help plant owners take effective remedial measures. Deficiencies of vital elements such as nitrogen, microbial infections and other similar disorders can often have visible effects, such as the yellowing of leaves in Catharanthus roseus (bright eyes) and scorched leaves in Fragaria ×ananassa (strawberry) plants. In this work, we explore approaches to use computer vision techniques to help plant owners identify such leaf disorders in their plants automatically and conveniently. This research designs three machine learning systems, namely a vanilla CNN model, a CNN-SVM hybrid model, and a MobileNetV2-based transfer learning model that detect yellowed and scorched leaves in Catharanthus roseus and strawberry plants, respectively, using images captured by mobile phones. In our experiments, the models yield a very promising accuracy on a dataset having around 4000 images. Of the three models, the transfer learning-based one demonstrates the highest accuracy (97.35% on test set) in our experiments. Furthermore, an Android application is developed that uses this model to allow end-users to conveniently monitor the condition of their plants in real time.

Opis:
The influence of the bentonite content (1, 3, 5 wt%) on the mechanical properties of lightweight cotton (C), polyester (P) and polyester-cotton (P/C 50/50) fabrics was investigated. Starch was used as a water-insoluble binder for coating fabrics. Bentonite nanoparticles were obtained by repeated hydration, decantation and evaporation of the water dispersion. The bentonite particle size was determined by the XRD method using the Debye-Scherrer equation. The diffraction of the laser beam was used to determine particles size distribution. The addition of bentonite nanoclay significantly improved tensile strength (26-61% and 99–118% in the warp and weft direction, respectively) and tear strength (4‒13% and 5–24% in the wrap and weft direction, respectively) of coated fabrics. Their abrasion resistance has also slightly increased. The biggest changes were noted for the cotton fabric, the smallest for the polyester fabric, which may result from the low compatibility between starch and the polyester fabric.
Zbadano wpływ zawartości bentonitu (1, 3, 5% mas.) na właściwości mechaniczne lekkich tkanin bawełnianych (C), poliestrowych (P) i poliestrowo-bawełnianych (P/C 50/50). Jako nie-rozpuszczalny w wodzie środek wiążący do powlekania tkanin zastosowano skrobię. Nanocząstki bentonitu otrzymywano poprzez kilkukrotną hydratację, dekantację i odparowanie dyspersji wodnej. Wielkość cząstek bentonitu oznaczono metodą XRD, stosując równanie Debye-Scherrera. Dyfrakcja wiązki laserowej posłużyła do określenia rozkładu wielkości cząstek. Zastosowanie nanoglinki bentonitowej wpłynęło na istotną poprawę wytrzymałości na rozciąganie (o 26‒61% w kierunku osnowy i 99‒118% w kierunku wątku) oraz rozdzieranie (4‒13% w kierunku osnowy i 5‒24% w kierunku wątku) powlekanych tkanin. Nieznacznie zwiększyła się również ich odporność na ścieranie. Największe zmiany zanotowano w przypadku tkaniny bawełnianej, najmniejsze dla tkaniny poliestrowej, co może wynikać z małej kompatybilności między skrobią a tkaniną poliestrową.

Opis:
This study investigates Thomas’ cyclically symmetric attractor dynamics with mathematical and electronic simulations using a proportional fractional derivative to comprehend the dynamics of a given chaotic system. The three-dimensional chaotic flow was examined in detail with Riemann-Liouville derivative for different values of the fractional index to highlight the sensitivity of chaotic systems with initial conditions. Thus, the dynamics of the fractional index system were investigated with Eigenvalues, Kaplan-Yorke dimension, Lyapunov exponent, and NIST testing, and their corresponding trajectories were visualized with phase portraits, 2D density plot, and Poincaré maps. After obtaining the results, we found that the integer index dynamics are more complex than the fractional index dynamics. Furthermore, the chaotic system circuit is simulated with operational amplifiers for different fractional indices to generate analog signals of the symmetric attractor, making it an important aspect of engineering. The qualitative application of our nonlinear chaotic system is then applied to encrypt different data types such as voice, image, and video, to ensure that the developed nonlinear chaotic system can widely applied in the field of cyber security.

The present study aimed to prepare hydrogel based on polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and gelatin (Ge) and characterization of PVA/Ge hydrogel for their potential use as a sustained drug delivery system. Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) and-Gelatin (Ge) were cross-linked using glutaraldehyde (GA) as a crosslinking agent and hydrochloric acid (HCl) as a catalyst. Different feed polymer ratio and crosslinking agent concentration were used to prepare a series of PVA/Ge hydrogels. The obtained PVA/Ge hydrogels were investigated for dynamic and equilibrium swelling studies. The effect of polymers ratio, degree of crosslinking and pH of the medium on swelling of PVA/Ge hydrogels was investigated. Furthermore, the values of diffusion coeficient (D), volume fraction, polymer-solvent interaction parameter, molecular weight between crosslink and crosslink density were calculated. For swelling studies, 0.05M USP phosphate buffer solutions of different pH (1.2, 5.5, 6.5 and 7.5) were used. For the drug release study, ciprofloxacin HCl was loaded into selected samples as a model drug. The release of drug from these samples was performed for 12 hours in USP phosphate buffers of pH 1.2, 5.5 and 7.5. The release data from these samples were fitted into various kinetic models like zero order, first order, Higuchi and Peppas models to investigate the release mechanism. It was found that by varying the composition of PVA/Ge hydrogel and GA concentration, a significant difference was observed in drug release kinetics. FTIR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction were used for the characterization of hydrogels. PVA/Ge hydrogel showed sustained release of the model drug at various pH values suggesting its potential use as a sustained drug delivery system.

Opis:
A method was developed to obtain a durable coating consisting of zinc and graphene oxide (Zn-GO) in order to reduce the mechanical wear and tear rate of oil and gas pipelines made of steel. Graphene oxide was obtained from graphite by wet chemical oxidation (unmodified and modified Hummers’ method) using potassium permanganate and sulfuric acid. The process was carried out at various temperatures. The steel was covered with an ultrathin layer of Zn-GO using the electrophoretic deposition method. The GO particle size (< 90 nm) was confirmed by XRD and laser analysis. For GO particles obtained by the modified Hummers’ method, a significant correlation was observed in the scratch (R2 = 0.87) and the Vickers microhardness tests (R2 = 0.93), which indicates a lower wear rate of Zn-GO-coated steel.
Opracowano metodę otrzymywania trwałej powłoki składającej się z cynku i tlenku grafenu (Zn-GO) w celu zmniejszenia zużycia mechanicznego rurociągów naftowo-gazowych wykonanych ze stali. Tlenek grafenu pozyskano z grafitu metodą mokrego utleniania chemicznego (niezmodyfikowana i zmodyfikowana metoda Hummersa) z użyciem nadmanganianu potasu i kwasu siarkowego. Proces prowadzono w różnej temperaturze. Stal powlekano ultra cienką warstwą Zn-GO techniką osadzania elektroforetycznego. Metodą XRD i analizą laserową potwierdzono wielkość cząstek GO (≤ 90 nm). Dla cząstek GO otrzymanych zmodyfikowaną metoda Hummersa zaobserwowano znaczącą korelację w teście zarysowania (R2 = 0.87) i mikrotwardości Vickersa (R2 = 0.93), co świadczy o mniejszym stopniu zużycia stali pokrytej powłoką Zn-GO.

By 2050, global crop demand is projected to rise by 60-110%. Crop yields have also been impacted by cli mate change in some nations, and these impacts are likely to continue. To prevent the influence of climate change on crop output, it is critical to adjust planting times in weather-related open fields to meet food security concerns. Present study was carried out at Experimental Farm of Faculty of Agriculture, Al-Azhar University, Assiut, Egypt, during two successive seasons, 2019 and 2020. It was aimed to study the effect of different sowing times (1st and 15th October, 1st and 15th November), and plant spacings (25, 20, and 15 cm) on growth, fruit yield, and oil production of caraway (Carum carvi L.) plants. The results showed that sowing caraway plants on 15th October with plant spacing of 25 cm gave the highest dry weight (72.6 g∙plant-1), fresh weight (266.15 g∙plant-1), seed yield (37.43 g∙plant-1), and oil yield (0.659 cm 3∙plant-1). The maximum umbels (50.83 number per plant) and essential oil (1.78%) were also recorded in the plants receiving same treatment. On the other hand, plants sown at 15th November with spacing of 15 cm exhibited the minimum values of recorded traits. While the highest value of plant height gave with sowing caraway plants on 15th October with plant spacing of 15 cm (135.35 cm). In conclusion, the plants sowed on October 15th with a maximum plant spacing of 25 cm had the highest values of the evaluated morphological, biochemical, and yield attributes of caraway.

Opis:
A critical requirement in optical chaos based secure radio over fiber (RoF) system design is the ability to control center frequency, spectral bandwidth, power level and signature of chaos to submerge message with sufficient horizontal and vertical margins both in time and frequency domains. Once frequency domain masking is completely achieved, time domain masking is met automatically, the former being more stringent. In a direct modulated semiconductor laser, the three control parameters are bias current (Ibias), modulation current (Imod) and modulation frequency (ωa). It is found that Imod increases bandwidth and amplitude dynamic range of chaotic pulses. Ibias increases the cavity power and hence average peak amplitude of laser chaotic pulses. The modulation frequency increases the speed of overall cavity dynamics and hence is used to increase the bandwidth of chaos but a corresponding increase in bias and modulation currents is required to support high repetition pulses. The results show relationship between three control parameters (bias current, modulation current and modulation frequency) in a direct modulated semiconductor laser and optical chaos bandwidth using regression.

Opis:
Groundwater is a precious source of fresh water and a major component of the entire water supply. Both water quality and quantity could be satisfied by evaluating the groundwater potential sites (GWPS). This paper analyzes the ground-water potentials in a semi-arid region of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. It describes a standard methodology to identify and map GWPS using integrated Geographical Information System (GIS) and remote sensing (RS) methods. Eight parameters including elevation, slope, drainage density, lineaments density, soil, geology, land use/land cover and rainfall were integrated to explore areas with groundwater holding capability. GWPS were delineated through subjective weights assigned after coupling various thematic layers using Saaty’s Analytical Hierarchical Process (AHP). The modelled GWPS were cross-checked with tube wells data. The result indicates that the central part of the study area has good potential for groundwater reserves/exploitation, where the factors i.e. moderate to high drainage density, sedimentary sequence of alluvial plain, low elevation etc. discern the central portion of the study area as a suitable site for groundwater. This study suggests that the applied method proves to be very significant and reliable tool for timely assessment of quality assured evaluation of groundwater resources. This study could be a systematic guide for future investigations for water related explorations, especially in semi-arid environments.

. This study proposes the use of multi-criteria decision models (MCDM) for transportation mode-route choice decisions. This method is beneficial when trips' microdata are unavailable. Route-mode choice decisions were investigated for three public transportation modes (buses, railways, and airlines) in the post-China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) investment in Pakistan Railways (PR) for a link between Peshawar and Karachi. TOPSIS (Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) was used for the mode choice decisions and a hybrid model of AHP (Analytical Hierarchy Approach) – TOPSIS was used for the route choice decision ML-1 link of PR. This study concludes that rails were the best mode of transportation in post-CPEC investment. Furthermore, route 3, linking Karachi to Peshawar via Lodhran, Multan, and Miniawali, is the best route connection among the four considered routes.

Propofol infusion in anesthesia administration requires continual adjustment in the manual infusion system to regulate the hypnosis level. Hypnotic level is based on Bispectral Index Monitor (BIS) showing the cortical activity of the brain scaled between 0 to 100. The new challenging aspect of automation in anaesthesia is to estimate the concentration of hypnotic drugs in different compartments of the body including primary, rapid peripheral (muscle), slow peripheral (bones, fat) and effect site (brain) compartment based on Pharmacokinetics (PK) and Pharmacodynamics (PD) model. This paper aimed to regulate the hypnosis level with estimating the Propofol concentrations using a linear observer in feedback control strategy based on Integral Super-Twisting Sliding Mode Controller (ISTSMC). The drug concentration in plasma of the silico patients accurately estimated in nominal transient. The results show that tracking errors between the actual output in form of BIS level and linearized output nearly approaches to zero in the maintenance phase of anesthesia to ensure the controller response on sliding phase with optimum performances by achieving desired hypnotic level 50 on BIS. The robustness of control strategy is further ensured by adding measurement noise of electromagnetic environment of operation theatre distracting signal quality index of the output BIS level.

Opis:
The use of heavy metals in the manufacturing industry over the past few decades has eventually contributed to a rise in the flow of metallic compounds into wastewater and has raised significant ecological and health threats to living things. Adsorption is an excellent way to treat solid waste effluent, offering significant benefits such as affordability, profitability, ease of operation and efficiency. However, the price of commercial adsorbent namely activated carbon has soared due to its high demand. There is also a green improvement in this method by turning the commercial adsorbent into agricultural waste. In Malaysia, the oil palm waste is such suitable material that can be utilized for making activated carbon, since they are ample and easy to find. Additionally, part of them is agricultural waste that cannot be consumed (i.e. leaves and fronds). Hence, this study aimed to analyse the potential of activated carbon from agricultural waste, namely oil palm waste, in reducing the levels of heavy metals in industrial wastewater.

Opis:
Researchers are using different statistical techniques for process optimisation and product development both in academia and industries. Similarly, several statistical tools are being employed in the textile industry for process optimisation during the manufacturing of different products. The purpose of this study was to analyse different Taguchi-based techniques in the multi-response optimisation of selected industrial processes and then to generalise the outcomes. Herein, six different Taguchi-based multi-response optimisation techniques, including grey relational analysis (GRA), the weighted signal-to-noise (WSN) ratio, principal component analysis, VIKOR (VlseKriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje), the multiple response signal-to-noise ratio, and Fuzzy logic were compared against three data sets of industrial processes. The researchers herein optimised cotton dyeing, the finishing of textile to make them oleo-hydrophobic, and the production of rhamnolipids (bio-surfactants). The results demonstrated that the Fuzzy logic-based Taguchi method gave the best optimisation amongst all the other approaches, followed by GRA and WSN for all the selected processes. The said statistical techniques were applied to specific textile and biotechnological processes. The outcomes of this study can help researchers in practical implementation in industrial sectors. In this study, a comparative analysis of the performances of six Taguchi-based multi-response optimisation techniques was conducted for potential industrial processes, particularly textile processing.
Niegarbowane odpady skórzane pochodzące z przemysłu garbarskiego są potencjalnym zagrożeniem dla środowiska naturalnego. Z drugiej jednak strony tego rodzaju odpady zawierają znaczące ilości cennego białka – kolagenu. Białko kolagenowe jest biopolimerem, który z uwagi na swoje właściwości znajduje zastosowanie w przemyśle spożywczym, kosmetycznym oraz w przemyśle biomedycznym. Obecnie na rynku dostępne są preparaty kolagenowe pozyskane z odpadów pochodzenia zwierzęcego. W pracy przedstawiono procedurę oznaczania aminokwasów w wybranych preparatach kolagenowych metodą wysokosprawnej chromatografii cieczowej i metodą spektrofotometryczną. We wszystkich próbkach oznaczono wysokie stężenia glicyny, alaniny, proliny i hydroksyproliny, a niewielkie ilości tyrozyny, seryny, waliny i izoleucyny. Zastosowana metoda chromatograficzna umożliwia szybkie i równoczesne oznaczenie 17 aminokwasów w badanych próbach. Opracowane w ramach pracy metody analityczne mogą być wykorzystane m.in. do szybkiej kontroli składu aminokwasowego kolagenu.
