The value of beach nourishment on a complex shoreline
Authors: Houston James
Published: March 2022

Lee County has the most complex shoreline among Florida’s 25 counties where beach nourishment has been placed. It has eight shoreline breaks such as passes (inlets) that have produced a very complex pattern of both significant shoreline recession and accretion since 1858. Beach nourishment would seem problematic on those shorelines that have experienced significant long-term recession. However, nourishment has been very successful, widening beaches an average of 132 ft from their first nourishments to 2018 along shorelines that had historically receded hundreds of feet. Tourism is the backbone of Lee County’s economy, supporting one of every five jobs. Beaches are the key to the county’s tourism, with more day visits annually than to the 12 most visited National Parks in America. Over 80% of Lee County tourists are beach tourists, and they had a 2019 economic impact in Lee County of $4.3 billion. Beach tourists generated $843 million in total taxes to federal, state, and local governments with these governments receiving $580, $160, and $40, respectively, in taxes for each $1 that they spent on beach nourishment. Moreover, Lee County received an economic impact of $690 for every $1 spent on beach nourishment. International beach tourists spent $462 million in Lee County in 2019, providing a gain in the U.S. international balance of payments. An investment in beach nourishment produces such compelling returns in taxes generated by beach tourists that the state and federal governments should reassess their priorities for this investment versus investments in inland flood control and navigation.
Adaptation pathways for climate change resilience on barrier islands
Authors: Anderson Dylan , Dietrich J. Casey , Spiegler Sarah , Cothron Cayla
Published: March 2022

Coastal communities throughout the world will be faced with policy decisions that affect their resilience to climate change, sea level rise, and associated impacts. Adaptation pathways, a holistic approach to policy development, may be an ideal framework for municipalities to consider in low-lying, dynamic environments such as barrier islands. Adaptation pathways identify hypothetical future timelines whereby communities adopt a different policy in response to new environmental conditions. This takes into account changing conditions and resulting hazards that exceed a threshold agreed upon by the community. In this paper, we focus on barrier island communities and give an overview of adaptation pathway methodologies, highlight several common policies considered to increase resilience, review how coastal scientists have thus far contributed to such methods, and discuss specific research agendas that could aid in future implementations. Although the use of adaptation pathways is still in its early stages in many coastal communities, the success of the process is dependent on contributions from both quantitative hazard research and consistent engagement with stakeholders in an iterative co-development of prioritized policy trajectories. Scientific needs include: better understanding of future hazards due to climate change and sea level rise, better predictions of time-dependent processes such as barrier island response to human alterations to natural coastal defense systems, and improved communication between physical scientists, social scientists, managers, and stakeholders.
Genealogical grammar development and text formatting in Tamil society
Authors: S Elakiya
Published: March 2022

Language is the ultimate creation of human knowledge. As a result of linguistic activity the universe, nature, culture, the relationship between society and man, the worldview based on it, theories based on that perspective, the rules that follow are formed, the types that are taught to test those rules together form the knowledge sequence of a time. Grammars and texts were developed in such a knowledge-based dialectical community. The reading that takes place in a work in each period makes the understanding of the work run as an evolution. Thus, textual traditions based on discussions of grammatical texts formed by studying grammatical texts, the formation of grammars, bibliography and grammatical commanders can be found. Similarly, it is necessary to know the stages of textual formation and development in Tamil society on the basis of tradition.

Need to Know the Tribes of Tamil Nadu
Authors: S Anandakumar
Published: March 2022

Tribes are those who have seen the evolving changes from the ancient ways of life and have regulated their lives. Their social organization culture and culture is found according to the context in which they live. The so-called tribes are variously called in Tamil. Politicians refer to them as savages, literati, hill people, rain people, Tolkudi, Mudukudi, Adigudi, Purvagudi, and Gandhians refer to Gandhi as Kirijan. The tribe is an educated social group. These are people who can consistently live in a common place. Speakers of the common dialect are those who have a common one-sided social morality. Followers of common ancestral beliefs panchayat systems and religious belief systems. The Fifth Principle of Sangam Literature shows that it was the hill people who formed the way of life and culture of the ancient Tamil community according to their landscape. Thus, the majority of the indigenous people are indigenous peoples with traditional cultural identities.

DETEKSI EVENT PADA HASHTAG TWITTER MENGGUNAKAN DF-IDF DAN ENTROPI WAVELET
Authors: Maggang Amin Ajaib
Published: March 2022

This study aims to detect event from a collection of tweets having same hashtag. Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and Document Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (DF-IDF) techniques were utilised in this research  to develop and analyse the signal. Signals are developed using DF-IDF during a certain period while DWT is applied to capture the sudden change in the DF-IDF signal and display it in the form of entropy. Words that have a sudden change in signal value at the same period of time might represent an event related to the topic of the hashtag. Knowing the words will assist users to discover the event associated to the hashtag. Using 3473 tweets collected on the RIPLKY hashtag with the 20 most frequently occurring words, the results showed that DWT managed to capture the sudden change in df-idf signal related to a spike occured in the wavelet entropi. The spike was shown by three words, namely proud, sophialimx, and goals. We also found that the three words were under the same tweet, and it describes an event about the  funeral of Singaporean prime minister.

Una aproximación al neoextractivismo en Colombia
Authors:   Universidad Autónoma de Zacatecas, Arias Hurtado Carolina
Published: March 2022

El neoextractivismo, como modelo de acumulación basado en la sobreexplotación de la naturaleza y el despojo territorial, ha sido designado como la principal locomotora de desarrollo en Colombia que opera a través de megaproyectos orientados a la explotación de minerales, biomasa y energía. Conflictos ecológicos, culturales, sociales, económicos y políticos revelan las múltiples contradicciones de este modelo; al tiempo que se fortalecen las resistencias sociales por la defensa del territorio, la naturaleza y la cultura.
Más allá de la defensa, la transformación. Un inventario de viejas y nuevas ideas para la Universidad pública
Authors:   Universidad Autónoma de Zacatecas, Márquez Covarrubias Humberto
Published: March 2022

En las últimas décadas se ha emprendido una embestida estatal para convertir paulatinamente a la Universidad pública en una suerte de empresa capitalista que provea de personal, conocimiento y tecnología a las corporaciones privadas. En tanto las comunidades universitarias y sus aliados no contravengan esa ofensiva, el carácter público de la Universidad puede desaparecer, los profesores serán proletarizados y los estudiantes se tornarán en meros consumidores de servicios educativos mercantilizados. Algunas de las líneas de resistencia provienen de los procesos históricos de reforma universitaria que postulaban la independencia frente a los poderes del Estado, la Iglesia y el capital para instituir un ámbito de autonomía, democracia y libertad. Pero ya no basta erigir una defensa con talante decimonónico, sino que también se necesita impulsar una transformación de la Universidad pública para ponerla al día y contribuir al cambio social y la emancipación humana.
Mercancía humana: mistificación del proletariado y centralidad de la cuestión laboral
Authors:   Universidad Autónoma de Zacatecas, Márquez Covarrubias Humberto
Published: March 2022

La fuerza de trabajo no es una mercancía pero es tratada como si lo fuera. De hecho es la mercancía más importante para el desarrollo del capitalismo, pues es la única capaz de producir plusvalor, la sustancia vital del sistema. El capitalismo tiene como premisa despojar a las clases populares de medios de producción y de sustento para obligarlos a vender su corporalidad y capacidad de trabajo, el trabajo vivo, por un salario, y someterse a los designios patronales que sólo tienen como premisa extraer el máximo beneficio. Tendencialmente, se imponen políticas de constricción salarial, lo cual entra en conflicto con la necesidad de realización del capital, el neoliberalismo impulsa entonces un sometimiento por deudas para hacer posible que consuman los pobres. Producción y reproducción se articulan con la intención de cerrar la pinza de un proletariado desbordante, sin fronteras, cada vez más sometido. En ese sentido, la emancipación humana significa un proyecto utópico, transformador, de cambio social, que reposa en el sueño proletario.

Manusia adalah makhluk sosial saling ketergantungan antara satu individu dengan individu yang lain atau memerlukan orang lain untuk melengkapi keperluan masing-masing. Oleh sebab itu antara individu haruslah saling ramah, santun, peduli dan sayang menyanyangi, tolong menolong, menghargai hak asasi manusia dan lain sebagainya. Semua nilai-nilai tersebut telah diajarkan oleh agama Islam kepada umatnya,  banyaknya dalil al-Qur’an untuk menyuruh manusia supaya berbuat baik kepada sesama manusia yang lain, baik dia seorang muslim maupun bukan muslim. Dengan demikian jika seseorang menjalankan aturan agama yang telah diajarkan al-Qur’an dan Hadis, maka akan terciptalah masyarakat yang tenang, damai, dan aman dalam  menjalankan aktifitas duniawi dan ukhrowinya serta tidak merugikan dirinya sendiri dan orang lain. Setelah itu akan terciptalah masyarakat yang madani beriman, bertaqwa dan taat pada aturan yang ditegakkan oleh Agama. Pada bagian ini, ayat-ayat yang berkaitan dengan pengembangan masyarakat akan ditelaah dengan mengungkapkan istilah-istilah dalam Al-Qur’an yang berkaitan dengan konsep masyarakat.
IMPACT OF MASS MEDIA ON THE MENTAL HEALTH OF INDIVIDUALS DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC.
Authors: Mathkar Madhavi , Deshpande Sharmishtha
Published: March 2022

Background & Aim: Exposure to mass media inuences our beliefs, social, economic and political stance and to some extent our personal relationships. This is a descriptive study about the impact of these on individual behavior and relation with mental health problems if any. Methodology : Data collection method for this observational study was via an online survey form (google forms) by convenience sampling. For a target population of 18-65 year old age groups, Indian citizens with a sample size of 273. Psychological aspects were assessed using Public Health Questionnaire - Social Anxiety and Depressive symptoms (PHQ-SADS) and Corona Anxiety Scales. Spearman correlation was used to explore relations between different components. Result: A statistically signicant positive correlation was found between PHQ-15 scores overall and time spent with entertainment media sources daily (r=0.349, p<0.01) as well as with PHQ-9 scores(r=0.316, p<0.01). Values of statistical signicance indicating positive correlation were obtained when PHQ-15 scores of females and time spent with entertainment media sources daily were compared (r=0.38, p<0.01), similarly with GAD-7 scores in females (r=0.32, p<0.01) . A signicant positive correlation was found between GAD-7 scores and time spent with news media sources daily in the 46-55 age group (r=0.36, p<0.01). However, anxiety on the Corona anxiety scale was much less and unrelated to PHQ and GAD. Conclusion: This study found a positive correlation between psychological morbidity and duration of exposure to mass media.Thus it was apparent that people with anxiety and/ or depression spend more time on mass media. Time spent on media was unrelated to coronavirus related anxiety as was thought of, but more related to their poor mental health, which was there perhaps, even before the onset of pandemic. Further studies can explore this domain.

Early Disease Stage Characterization in Parkinson’s Disease from Resting-state fMRI Data Using a Long Short-term Memory Network
Authors: Guo Xueqi , Tinaz Sule , Dvornek Nicha
Published: March 2022

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common and complex neurodegenerative disorder with 5 stages in the Hoehn and Yahr scaling. Given the heterogeneity of PD, it is challenging to classify early stages 1 and 2 and detect brain function alterations. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a promising tool in revealing functional connectivity (FC) differences and developing biomarkers in PD. Some machine learning approaches like support vector machine and logistic regression have been successfully applied in the early diagnosis of PD using fMRI data, which outperform classifiers based on manually selected morphological features. However, the early-stage characterization in FC changes has not been fully investigated. Given the complexity and non-linearity of fMRI data, we propose the use of a long short-term memory (LSTM) network to characterize the early stages of PD. The study included 84 subjects (56 in stage 2 and 28 in stage 1) from the Parkinson’s Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI), the largest-available public PD dataset. Under a repeated 10-fold stratified cross-validation, the LSTM model reached an accuracy of 71.63%, 13.52% higher than the best traditional machine learning method, indicating significantly better robustness and accuracy compared with other machine learning classifiers. We used the learned LSTM model weights to select the top brain regions that contributed to model prediction and performed FC analyses to characterize functional changes with disease stage and motor impairment to gain better insight into the brain mechanisms of PD.
Automated Disaster Monitoring from Social Media Posts using AI based Location Intelligence and Sentiment Analysis
Authors: Sufi Dr. Fahim , Khalil Ibrahim
Published: March 2022

Worldwide disasters
like bushfires, earthquakes, floods, cyclones, heatwaves etc. have affected the
lives of social media users in an unprecedented manner. They are constantly posting
their level of negativity over the disaster situations at their location of
interest. Understanding location-oriented sentiments about disaster situation
is of prime importance for political leaders, and strategic decision-makers. To
this end, we present a new fully automated algorithm based on artificial
intelligence (AI) and Natural Language Processing (NLP), for extraction of location-oriented
public sentiments on global disaster situation. We designed the proposed system
to obtain exhaustive knowledge and insights on social media feeds related to
disaster in 110 languages through AI and NLP based sentiment analysis, named entity
recognition (NER), anomaly detection, regression, and Getis Ord Gi* algorithms. We
deployed and tested this algorithm on live

Twitter feeds from
28 September 2021 till 6 October 2021. Tweets with 67,515 entities in 39
different languages were processed during this period. Our novel algorithm
extracted 9727 location entities with greater than 70% confidence from live
twitter feed and displayed the locations of possible disasters with disaster intelligence.
The rates of average precision, recall and F1-Score were measured to be 0.93,
0.88 and 0.90 respectively. Overall, the fully automated disaster monitoring
solution demonstrated 97% accuracy. According to the best of our knowledge,
this study is the first to report location intelligence with NER, sentiment
analysis, regression and anomaly detection on social media messages related to
disasters and has covered the largest set of languages.
Device-Circuit Co-design of Memristor-based on Niobium Oxide for Large-Scale Crossbar Memory
Authors: Kumar Avinash , Yadav Mani Shankar , Rawat Brajesh
Published: March 2022

Memristor-based crossbar architecture emerges as a promising candidate for 3-D memory and neuromorphic computing; however, the sneak current through the unselected cells becomes a fundamental roadblock for their development as it results in misreading and high power consumption. In this regard, we investigate Pt/Ti/NbO2/Nb2O5−x/Pt-based self-selective memristor, which combines inherent nonlinearity of NbO2 switching layer and non-volatile operation of Nb2O5−x memory layer in a single device. The results show that Pt/Ti/NbO2/Nb2O5−x/Pt memristor offers the sneak current of 310 nA, selectivity of around 174, and on/off current ratio of 4.79 compared to the sneak current of around 70 µA, selectivity of about 4.02, and on/off current ratio of around 1.55 for Pt/Ti/Nb2O5−x/Pt-based memristor. Our self-selective memristor minimizes the sneak current, but a small on/off current ratio limits their readout margin and power efficiency for crossbar array size greater than 212. Further, we demonstrate that breaking down a large-scale crossbar array into smaller subarrays and separating them by transistor switches is a more efficient way of eliminating the sneak current. The memristor-transistor split crossbar architecture essentially provides the readout margin and power efficiency of subarray for large size crossbar array and allows high-density array integration over 1Transistor-1Memristor architecture.

Monolithic pixel sensors integrate the sensor matrix and readout in the same silicon die, and therefore present several advantages over the more largely used hybrid detectors in high-energy physics. In this paper, a low-power, radiation-hard frontend circuit for monolithic pixel sensors, designed to meet the requirements of low noise and low pixel-to-pixel variability, the key features to achieve high detection efficiencies, is presented. The sensor features a small collection electrode to achieve a small capacitance (< 5 fF) and allows full CMOS in-pixel circuitry. The circuit is implemented in the 180 nm CMOS imaging technology from the TowerJazz foundry and integrated in the MALTA2 chip, which is part of a development that targets the specifications of the outer pixel layer of the ATLAS Inner Tracker upgrade at the LHC. One of the main challenges for monolithic sensors is a radiation hardness up to 1015 1 MeV neq/cm2 Non-Ionizing Energy Loss (NIEL) and 80 Mrad Total Ionizing Dose (TID) required for this application. Radiation source and charge injection tests up to 3 ° 1015 1 MeV neq/cm2 and 100 Mrad were performed on the MALTA2 sensor and front-end circuit, which still show good performance even after these levels of irradiation, promising for even more demanding applications such as the future experiments at the HL-LHC.
Un diritto del lavoro ‘tridimensionale’: valori e tecniche di fronte ai mutamenti dei luoghi di lavoro
Authors: Caruso Bruno , Zappalà Loredana
Published: March 2022

The essay analyses the changes in labour law by examining working places’ modifications induced by the most meaningful driver: technology. In this perspective, the authors point out three macro scenarios.
The first relates to industry 4.0 and to the notion of “cognitive enterprise”. This could, or should, act as a magnet model considering its social and organizational positive consequences. The second is the traditional work organization re-considered in the light of new technologies’ impact; it generates a kind of neo digital Fordism, as does the Amazon model in the logistic sector. The third scenario is linked to the rise of the gig economic, with its “workers on tap” (i.e. the platform economy with the algorithm as a boss). These different scenarios, even if characterised by blurred borders, imply the need to think of Labour law differently than in the past. Beyond its traditional protective function, there should be a promotional one, aimed at developing capabilities and positive liberties of the person in the workplace. In the face of this three-fold dimension of the workplaces and of the expansion of Labour law functions, it is also necessary to rethink its techniques and principles. In that sense, the authors propose a different regulatory perspective: no more rigid and uniform rules, as happened in the “short century”, but a regulation made by differentiation, adaptations, extensions, dilutions. With a unifying value: the reference to the individual, to her/his life project, and ultimately to her/his dignity.

After the critique of neoliberal economic thought, labor law can draw on these two currents of political philosophy to consolidate, from an evolutionary point of view, its own value paradigm and to identify a new regulatory project that lives up to the challenge of neo-modernity. The ideas of freedom as non-domination and as social freedom, unlike the classical liberal concept of negative freedom, converge in the construction of social rights, such as codetermination, around which to found a new course of labor law.

Uçucu kül, cüruf, metakaolin gibi endüstriyel yan ürünlerin alkali aktivatörlerle aktive edilmesiyle üretilen jeopolimer esaslı malzemeler, Portland çimentosu (PÇ) esaslı kompozitlerle rekabet eden mühendislik özelliklerine sahiptir. Ancak, hali hazırda PÇ üretim hacimleriyle karşılaştırıldığında, daha yaygın olarak kullanılması için farklı endüstriyel yan ürünlerle hammadde kaynaklarını çeşitlendirmek gerekmektedir. Bu anlamda, kalsiyum (Ca) tabanlı kolemanit, sodyum (Na) tabanlı tinkal ve hem kalsiyum hem de sodyum tabanlı üleksitin çimento içermeyen jeopolimerli karışımlarda değerlendirilmesi, bu tür bor minerallerini PÇ esaslı kompozitlerdeki kullanımına kıyasla daha değerli kılabilir. Bu çalışmada, kolemanit, üleksit ve tinkal esaslı bor minerallerinin bağlayıcı olarak jeopolimer üretiminde kullanılmasının mekanik özelliklere ve mikro yapı etkilerine dair araştırma ortaya konmuştur. Elde edilen sonuçlarda kolemanit ve üleksitin mekanik özellikleri kötüleştirmesine rağmen, tinkal ikamesinin %100 cüruf içeren referans karışımları ile kıyaslanabilir olduğu görülmüştür. Araştırma bulguları, kolemanit ve üleksitten ziyade, tinkalin ikame olarak kullanıma daha uygun olduğunu göstermektedir. Ancak tinkalin bağlayıcı olarak ikamesinin yanında, alkali aktivatör olarak parametrik şekilde sınanarak boroaluminosilikatların daha kapsamlı olarak ayırt edilmesi gerektiği düşünülmektedir.

Dünya genelinde hızla tükenen enerji kaynaklarını korumaya yönelik birtakım tedbirler alınmaktadır. Özellikle ulaşım araçlarında enerji verimliliğinin artırılması amacıyla sürdürülebilir enerji kaynaklarına yönelim giderek artmaktadır. Yapılan bu çalışmada ülkemizdeki demiryolu taşıtlarının son 43 yıldaki hat uzunluğu, yolcu sayısı ve yük miktarı değerleri esas alınarak toplam enerji tüketim miktarları incelenmiştir. Yapay sinir ağları yöntemi ile oluşturulan 5 farklı model için tükenen enerji miktarı ile tahmin edilen enerji miktarları korelasyon katsayıları, R2, mutlak hata ve mutlak bağıl hata ölçütleri Levenberg-Marquardt ve Conjugate Gradient Descent algoritmaları kullanılarak karşılaştırılmıştır. Girdi olarak yolcu sayısı ve yük miktarı alınan 3 numaralı modelin doğruluk değerleri ve hata ölçütleri daha iyi çıkmıştır. Çalışmada elde edilen sonuçlara göre enerji tüketim miktarının en çok yük miktarı daha sonra ise yolcu sayısı ile ilişkisi olduğu hat uzunluğu ve yıllardaki değişimin daha az etkili olduğu ortaya konmuştur. Bu çalışmada elde edilen veriler ile gelecek dönemlerdeki demiryollarında taşınması planlanan yolcu sayısı ve yük miktarı kullanılarak harcanabilecek enerji miktarı tespit edilebilecektir. Tespit edilen enerji miktarı sayesinde sürdürülebilir enerji kaynaklarına yönelim yapılarak önemli miktarda tasarruf sağlanabilecektir.

Bu çalışmada; bilimsel çalışmalarda kullanılmak üzere Malatya Turgut Özal Üniversitesi Ziraat Fakültesi bünyesinde yetiştirilen kenevir bitkisinin atık kısımları (kök, gövde ve diğer) değerlendirilmiştir. Kenevir atıklarından karbonizasyon ile kimyasal aktivasyon yöntemi kullanılarak aktif karbon elde edilmiş ve karakterizasyon deneyleri gerçekleştirilmiştir. İlk olarak, kenevir atıklarının 100 ml/dk N2 gazı akışında, 1 saat süreyle, 500°C sıcaklıkta karbonizasyonu yapılmıştır. Karbonize edilmiş ürün, ağırlıkça farklı oranlarda (1:1, 1:2, 1:3 ve 1:4) KOH emdirilerek aktivasyon işlemi için hazırlanmıştır. Etüvde kurutulan ürünler daha sonra aktivasyona tabii tutulmuştur. Kimyasal aktivasyon işlemi 100 ml/dk N2 gazı akışında, 1 saat süreyle, 800°C’de gerçekleştirilmiştir. Daha sonra oda sıcaklığına soğutulan karışım fırından alınarak üzerine seyreltik HCl eklenerek, bir ısıtıcı yardımıyla ısıtma işlemi yapılmıştır. Soğuduktan sonra süzülerek, saf su ile klorür tepkimesi vermeyinceye kadar (AgNO3 testi ile) yıkanmıştır. Daha sonra etüve konarak, iyice kuruması sağlanmıştır. Etüvde kurutulan aktif karbon örneklerinin karakterizasyonunu belirlemek için elementel (C, H, N, S) analiz, XRD, FTIR ve SEM analizleri gerçekleştirilmiştir. Ayrıca, aktif karbonların BET azot adsorpsiyonu yüzey alanı ölçümü ile, yüzey alanı ve gözenekliliği belirlenmiştir. Karbonize edilmiş kenevir atığında toplam yüzey alanı (Stotal) 171,75 m2/g, mikrogözenek alanı (Smikro) 145,46 m2/g ve mezogözenek alanı (Smezo) 26,29 m2/g iken bu değerler 1:4 oranında KOH emdirilmiş aktif karbonda sırasıyla 1881,80 m2/g, 1152,40 m2/g ve 728,40 m2/g olarak hesaplanmıştır. Karbonize üründe 0,077 cm3/g olan gözenek hacmi, aktif karbonda 0,8852 cm3/g olarak belirlenmiştir. Karbonize ürün ve aktif karbonun ortalama gözenek çapları (dp) sırasıyla 1,78 nm ve 1,88 nm olarak belirlenmiştir.

In developing countries, the four-stroke single-cylinder gasoline engine finds wide use. Motorcycles, tricycles and household machines like vegetable grinding machines are but a few of the machinery which run on this engine. Researchers have found that this engine is inefficient and consumes a lot of fuel, in light of sustainability and energy efficiency, this study aimed to perform an exergy analysis of a single-cylinder 4-stroke gasoline engine to determine how best its efficiency can be improved. Parameters such as brake thermal power, exergy efficiency, the quantity of exergy destruction and the component of the engine which is the most influential on its efficiency were determined while varying the engine’s torque. A G200K1 Honda engine was used as the study material. At the lowest tested torque of 9.4Nm, a corresponding brake power output of 2.4609kW and efficiency of 17.07% was measured, while at a higher torque 9.70Nm, a corresponding brake power output of 2.5395kW and efficiency of 17.62% was measured. It was also found that for every 1.06% rise in torque there is a corresponding 1.80% rise in brake power and exergy efficiency. It was concluded from the findings that the bulk of energy waste in the system comes from the high-temperature gas released from the engine’s exhaust. For the overall efficiency of four-stroke single-cylinder gasoline engines to be improved, the exergy destruction due to combustion should be minimised by optimizing the combustion temperature and reducing heat loss from the combustion chamber.
