Published: July 2024

Modern materials are protected by surface coatings to increase the material endurance. High-velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) thermal spray coating involves injecting coating powder into an oxygen and fuel flame ejected by a nozzle. To create a thick coating that improves mechanical characteristics and boosts erosion resistance, wear resistance, and corrosion protection, the molten or semi-molten powder is accelerated towards the surface by a high-velocity gas stream. HVOF process features include spraying distance that can influence mechanical properties such as fatigue behaviour. The purpose of this research is to determine the impact of varied spraying distances for HVOF tungsten carbide-nickel (WC-Ni) coating on the fatigue characteristics of carbon steel. The fatigue test is performed on the specimens after the carbon steel has been coated with tungsten carbide nickel using the HVOF technique using the Shimadzu Servopulsor testing machine according to ASTM E466 standard for axial fatigue testing. Using the scanning electron microscope (SEM), the fracture analysis is carried out. The findings showed that the fatigue strength of the coated carbon steel decreased than the uncoated carbon steel. Also, the coated carbon steel fatigue strength increased with increasing spraying distances of 200 mm and 250 mm. There are two separate zones on the shattered surface: a burnished, smooth region and a granular, rough region. The fatigue fracture developed in the area that was burnished and smooth. Lastly, the coating that is applied to the base metal to improve the corrosion resistance would reduce the fatigue strength but not significantly.
Optimum Design of Granular Pile Anchor System for Ground Improvement on Expansive and Shrinking Soil

Published: July 2024

Expansive and shrinking soil that exist in various regions worldwide, has a significant disadvantage due to its expanding and shrinking properties and the repetition process of this phenomenon will cause fatigue and distress to structures resulting in cracks. To reinforce these expansive soils, an innovative technique called the Granular Pile Anchor (GPA) system is used that offers tensile strength, counteracting the forces in an upward direction and minimizing heave. Limitation to prior studies is that it only focuses on load-displacement relationships using the pull-out technique, where an external force is applied to the GPA, and the resulting displacements are measured. These results indicate the GPA's capability to withstand the force being exerted. However, this is not the case in real conditions, heave and expansion forces occur due to water absorption, which exerts pressure and pushes the entire soil bed upward, including the GPA. Therefore, this paper aims to investigate this concept through physical experiments from a small-scale model and numerical studies consisting of a single pile with varying diameters and lengths to determine its optimum design. The reinforced soil ultimately demonstrates a reduction in upward the force and vertical movement in contrast to unreinforced soil. Furthermore, the tests confirm that there is an almost linear relationship between the upward force and heave in both the experimental and numerical investigations. Consequently, incorporating a GPA system into shallow foundations proves to effectively mitigate heave and shrinkage issues in expansive soils, thereby addressing construction-related challenges.

Authors: Zaheer Ahmed  , Meftah Hrairi  , Zakwan Yazid
Published: July 2024

A joint is a crucial approach in the engineering field, especially when it comes to the completion of a structure. Engineers must inspect the structure's quality so that damage can be avoided. Many academic and industry researchers have recently expressed interest in the creation of a real-time, in-service, and smart material-based Structural health monitoring (SHM) technique. Recently, piezoceramic (PZT) transducers have developed into an effective smart material that is frequently used in guided ultrasonic wave propagation and electromechanical impedance (EMI) procedures. This paper will investigate the adhesive bonded structure with the presence of stiffener and lap joint in good and damaged condition. ANSYS software will be used to develop a finite element model to determine the impedance signal of the structure and validate the simulation results with results from the literature. The result will be shown in terms of impedance signal and the differences in the condition will be determined by RMSD value.

Published: July 2024

In today's Internet world, many dangers threaten people's safety online every day. One big danger is harmful software called malware, like GoldenEyes, Heartbleed, Rootkit etc. This kind of software can make you lose important information or change it in a bad way. The usual ways of finding and stopping this software don't always work well. They take a lot of time and might not catch new kinds of harmful software. This paper introduces a robust ensemble approach for malware detection and classification. Leveraging a diverse and high-quality dataset, the proposed ensemble model combines three base classifiers Sequential model-1, 2, and 3 to enhance accuracy and resilience against evolving malware variants. Gray Wolf Optimization (GWO) is used to extract optimal features, optimizing model performance. Experimental results, obtained through rigorous comparative analysis with existing methods, demonstrate the superiority of the ensemble model, achieving a remarkable accuracy rate of 96.20%. This research contributes to the advancement of malware detection by offering a versatile and highly accurate solution capable of adapting to emerging threats, thereby bolstering cybersecurity efforts in an ever-evolving digital landscape.

Published: July 2024

Wick Editor is a free and open-source web-based tool for creating games. Unlike Flash, which is widely discussed in literature as a tool to produce educational multimedia titles and educational games, Wick Editor is not widely known. This study proposes Wick Editor as a more accessible and viable alternative to Flash. There are two main approaches employed in this study, namely examining process: 1) developing a software artefact as evidence as well as comparative features analysis of authoring tools; and examining the end product 2) selecting relevant heuristics and getting experts to evaluate. A selected cohort of students were trained to use Wick Editor. At the end of the training, they were required to develop educational games. In the process, Wick Editor was assessed in terms of functionalities. A heuristics protocol engaging 18 educators was used to assess the educational games developed by students. The findings reveal that Wick Editor is indeed a viable alternative but with certain limitations and opportunities for improvements in game design. In order for educational games to be used extensively and democratization of educational games development, a free and accessible authoring tool must be made available for educators.
Purifying the Used Palm Olein with the Durian-Peel Activated Carbon
Authors: Asriana Ibrahim  , Muhammad Adib Fadzil
Published: July 2024

Used Palm Olein (UPO) is generated from the deep-frying process during meal preparation when exposed to high heating temperatures for an extended period. Repeated use of UPO can cause damage to its chemical content due to oxidation reactions in such a way that the colour becomes darker. At the same time, it also produces volatile compounds that can cause carcinogenic effects on humans. This study investigated the potential of the durian-peel activated carbon (DPAC) in enhancing the three physicochemical properties of the UPO, i.e., colour, free fatty acids (FFAs), and peroxide value. The effect of contact time and volume ratio on producing DPAC was also investigated. The higher the contact time and volume ratio, the better the UPO. At the best parameter of 1: 0.1 volume ratio and 60-minute contact time, the FFA content of UPO was reduced by 20.1% and the peroxide value by 9.3%.

Este texto tem por objetivo contribuir para o debate sobre a seguridade social no Brasil por meio de um estudo focado na atuação normativa do Estado sobre o assunto. Realizou-se uma análise de conteúdo da produção legislativa em âmbito federal, considerando o grande tema seguridade social como universo de análise, os textos de normas federais (emendas constitucionais, leis, medidas provisórias, decretos presidenciais e decretos legislativos) como unidades de análise e o período compreendido entre outubro de 1988 e setembro de 2022 como recorte temporal. O software Iramuteq foi utilizado no suporte à análise textual, incluindo estatísticas descritivas de expressões mais frequentes, análise de similitude, aná¬lise fatorial de correspondência e classificação hierárquica descendente (método Reinert). Verificou-se que o assunto mais frequentemente tratado nessa produção legislativa foi a execução do orçamento da seguridade social (OSS), seguido pelo seu financiamento e/ ou tributação. Definimos essa proeminência como formalismo fiscal-orçamentário e dis¬cutimos algumas de suas consequências. Nenhum destaque foi dado às áreas de política que constituem a seguridade social (saúde, assistência social e previdência social) nessas publicações. Quando elas aparecem, são quase sempre tratadas de forma estanque, não sendo objeto de uma ação legislativa conjunta que as trate de forma integrada como política pública. Assim, a conclusão deste trabalho é de que a seguridade social não foi reconhecida como um tema de política pública na ação legislativa federal no período analisado.

Este trabalho constitui uma contribuição do Instituto de Pesquisa Econômica Aplicada (Ipea) à avaliação do Programa Minha Casa Minha Vida (PMCMV), realizada no âmbito do Conselho de Monitoramento e Avaliação de Políticas Públicas (CMAP). A relevância do PMCMV para a provisão habitacional recente bem como para a dinamização econômica do setor imobiliário é inegável. Contudo, restavam dúvidas sobre a focalização do programa em sua faixa voltada para as famílias de mais baixa renda, operada pelo Fundo de Arrendamento Residencial (FAR). Tal questão se refere ao atendimento a mutuários que, em sua situação de moradia anterior, comporiam (ou não) o contingente de famílias em déficit habitacional. Além disso, a produção do programa vem sendo alvo de críticas pela predominância da localização periférica dos conjuntos habitacionais, isto é, em terrenos distantes de empregos e equipamentos urbanos. Esta avaliação buscou trazer respostas para ambas as questões. Em um recorte dos vinte municípios mais populosos do país, foi apurada a existência de déficit habitacional anterior dos mutuários do programa, calculado a partir de registros do Cadastro Único para Programas Sociais do Governo Federal (CadÚnico). No mesmo recorte de municípios, foram medidos indicadores de acessibilidade a empregos e serviços básicos de saúde e educação, alcançáveis a partir de cada um dos empreendimentos do PMCMV/FAR, por meio da utilização da plataforma do projeto Acesso a Oportunidades, do Ipea. Os principais resultados permitem medir a aderência do programa ao déficit habitacional, e encontrou-se que cerca de 31% dos mutuários estariam em situação de déficit habitacional em sua moradia anterior. A incidência do déficit habitacional foi 43% maior entre os mutuários do PMCMV/FAR do que entre as famílias que não foram beneficiadas pelo programa. Tal achado pode indicar que, de modo geral, houve uma boa focalização dos beneficiários, ainda que haja espaço para melhorias. Relativamente ao acesso a oportunidades, os principais resultados apontam que, em quase todas as cidades que foram objeto de análise, os valores mostrados pelos empreendimentos do PMCMV/FAR foram piores quando comparados à acessibilidade média de pessoas que moram em favelas (aglomerados subnormais) ou em domicílios de baixa renda (até um salário mínimo per capita). Embora essas diferenças também estejam presentes no acesso a escolas e serviços de saúde, os piores resultados se mostram na dimensão do acesso aos empregos. Sugere-se que oportunidades de melhoria estariam tanto na maior integração entre políticas habitacionais e de transporte como em políticas públicas que mitigassem a segregação espacial, por meio da utilização de terrenos mais bem localizados, relativamente à oferta de empregos nessas grandes cidades para a produção de empreendimentos habitacionais de interesse social. Tal opção poderia incluir terrenos ociosos de propriedade da União.

Synaptic behavior of a composite multiferroic heterostructure FeBSiC – PZT at resonant excitation
Authors: Fedulov Fedor A. , Savelev Dmitrii V. , Fetisov Yuri K.
Published: July 2024

Nowadays, one of the promising ways for the development of computing systems with high performance and low energy consumption is the creation of artificial synaptic devices that imitate the functions of biological synapses. Such devices have a significant potential for effectively solving problems of pattern recognition, classification, control, and the treatment of diseases of the nervous system. The work demonstrates the imitation of synaptic behavior in a composite multiferroic heterostructure based on the piezoceramics of lead zirconate titanate (PZT) and the amorphous magnetic alloy Metglas. The characteristics of the heterostructure were measured by resonant excitation of the magnetoelectric (ME) effect and applying electric field pulses of various amplitudes and polarities. The ME coefficient αE was considered as a synaptic weight, and the output electrical voltage of the heterostructure as a postsynaptic potential. The study demonstrates the possibility of simulating long-term potentiation (LTP) and depression (LTD) in the ME heterostructure, as well as spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP). This work shows promise for creating neuromorphic computing systems based on multiferroic composite heterostructures.
A dissipation model for concrete based on an enhanced Timoshenko beam
Authors: Aretusi Giuliano , Cardillo Christian , Terranova Larry Murcia , Bednarczyk Ewa
Published: July 2024

A novel Timoshenko beam model enriched to account for dissipation in cement-based materials was presented in this paper. The model introduced a new variable representing the relative sliding inside microcracks within the material. In the paper, the microcrack density was not supposed to increase, assuming a small deformation regime that implied no damage growth. The model utilized an expanded version of the principle of virtual work whose contributions came from external forces, internal elastic forces, and dissipation due to the microcrack's microstructure. The elastic energy included terms related to microcrack sliding and micro-macro interactions, accounting for nonlinearity in the material behavior. Numerical simulations, conducted using the finite element method, evaluated the mechanical properties of cement-based materials under three-point flexural tests and compression tests. These tests enabled the assessment of the material dissipative behavior under cyclic loading. Results showed dissipated energy cycles and mechanical responses influenced by the microcrack mechanics. Additionally, a parametric study, varying the friction force amplitude, revealed its impact on dissipated energy. The study highlighted a non-monotonic relationship between friction force amplitude and dissipated energy, with an optimal value maximizing dissipation. Overall, the model provided insights into the mechanics of cement-based materials, particularly regarding dissipation, which was essential for understanding their behavior in structural applications.

The Common Instrument Middleware Architecture (CIMA) model for Web services based monitoring of remote scientific instruments is being extended and enhanced to provide a capability for remote instrument control. X-ray diffraction has been selected as an ideal domain for prototype development, with the goal being a comprehensive and feature rich portal system for access to remote instruments and their data. The system has two principle components, one of which serves the instrument and data, and the second serves the client user. Plugin modules are used to provide flexibility and re-use, and the notion of plugin control is being developed. The architecture supports remote access to multiple instruments from a single portal. The use of Web 2.0 Pushlet and AJAX technologies has been introduced for push based portlet refresh and updating. An X3D based 3D virtual representation of the instrument provides data collection simulation and (pseudo) real time instrument representation.

Published: July 2024

Remote engineering (also known as online engineering) may be defined as a combination of control engineering and telematics. In this area, specific activities require computacional skills in order to develop projects where electrical devives are monitored and / or controlled, in an intercative way, through a distributed network (e.g. Intranet or Internet). In our specific case, we will be dealing with an industrial plant.
Within the last few years, there has been an increase in the number of activities related to remote engineering, which may be connected to the phenomenon of the large extension experienced by the Internet (e.g. bandwith, number of users, development tools, etc.). This increase opens new and future possibilities to the implementation of advance teleworking (or e-working) positions. In this paper we present the architecture for a remote application, accessible through the Internet, able to monitor and control a roller hearth kiln, used in a ceramics industry for firing materials. The proposed architecture is based on a micro web server, whose main function is to monitor and control the firing process, by reading the data from a series of temperature sensors and by controlling a series of electronic valves and servo motors. This solution is also intended to be a low-cost alternative to other potential solutions. The temperature readings are obtained through K-type thermopairs and the gas flow is controlled through electrovalves. As the firing process should not be stopped before its complete end, the system is equipped with a safety device for that specific purpose. For better understanding the system to be automated and its operation we decided to develop a scale model (100:1) and experiment on it the devised solution, based on a Micro Web Server.

Interoperability of Remote Laboratories Systems
Authors: Yeung Herbert , Lowe David , Murray Steve
Published: July 2024

There has been growing interest in, and development of, remotely accessible laboratories as a mechanism for improving access and flexibility, and enabling sharing of facilities. Differences in focus, philosophy, approach or domain have led to quite different technical solutions in supporting remote laboratories. Whilst this diversity represents a significant strength in terms of the ability to explore different issues and support diverse applications, it does however potentially hamper the sharing of labs between different institutions. Investigation into interoperability between two remote lab platforms has realized a need for a common application protocol to achieve the goals remote labs aims to provide. We describe our approach to providing a bridge between two current remote laboratory architectures â?? Labshareâ??s Sahara and MITâ??s iLabs â?? and report on the issues that arise with regard to the protocol translations.
Remotely Controlled Real-Time DSP Applications through Customized GUIs based on LabVIEW
Authors: Kalantzopoulos Athanasios , Karageorgopoulos Dimitrios , Zigouris Evangelos
Published: July 2024

The purpose of this paper is to present an approach which could expand the features of Remote Laboratories focused on embedded Digital Signal Processing (DSP) systems. The proposed approach is based on a system which is designed and developed with LabVIEW and is called R-DSP Server. Exploiting this system, users are able to develop their own Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs), named Customized GUIs, for the remote control and validation of real-time DSP applications. These GUIs are tailored to the needs of each DSP application and can be implemented in any programming language. The rapid design of Customized GUIs using LabVIEW for the communication with the R-DSP Server is achieved utilizing an implemented set of functions, called R-DSP LabVIEW Toolkit.
AI and Aegis

Published: July 2024

The accelerative use of AI within the decade has been one of the most profound statistics in technology. The application of artificial intelligence is so ubiquitous that it is the most reliable, benefitting people starting from school going kids to international authorities. Humans tend to mean the evolution of technology is in line with finding an easier way to anything. AI is one such invention in the digital world. Not all easy contrivances come without a deleterious effect. This chapter lets the reader understand and analyze the conceptional stages of AI and the impact that can be caused by the same. Unlike the type of AI which are currently in force, the upcoming versions are predicted to be of greater impact in both positive and critical ways. This chapter can also be seen as a comparative criticism of the tech contraption. Just like how a sculpture shines is based on the moulding techniques used while sculpting, the extent of the impact of future AIs and the comprehensive scope of its influence will be contingent upon the trajectory of its development, the stringency of its regulatory frameworks, and the breadth of its integration across diverse industrial sectors and applications. In this calculus, the imperatives of ethical contemplation, conscientious advancement, and sustained scholarly inquiry assume paramount significance. These imperatives are pivotal in orchestrating the realization of its constructive capacity, simultaneously serving as bulwarks against the prospective perils that may accompany its proliferation. The author explores the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) as revolutionary. Balancing transparency with complexity, ensuring users interpret explanations accurately, and addressing potential security and privacy concerns are among the issues that are being addressed in this chapter.

Taming the Digital Leviathan
Authors: Shiva Karthik
Published: July 2024

Liberal democracies are undergoing a litmus test with the advancements of Web 3.0 fundamentally altering the global democratic praxis. Democracies contend with technologies that alienate, divide, and shape our opinions, choices, and preferences through bubble filters, echo chambers, and bot-driven agenda setting. Social media disinformation has resulted in the truth becoming the biggest causality skewing the power scale to favour the technologically sound and economically invested. Technologies, such as artificial intelligence, big data analytics, and deepfakes pose an existential threat to democracy. Particularly, deepfakes add to our woes, creating unforeseen implications for democratic governance as world leaders' use of social media to announce governmental policy decisions enhances its dangers including serious political and governmental upheaval. The chapter examines the interplay between social media platforms, digital technologies, and their implication for democracy through the twin prism of legal regulation and conceptualisation of the right to ‘truth'.
