The purpose of this research is to offer a technique for a hybrid wind–solar power plant that makes the most efficient contribution of renewable energy resources and is backed by technology that allows batteries to store energy. The fact that solar and wind power display power profiles that are complimentary was the driving force for the construction of the hybrid solar–wind power system.
Integrated Sensor Fusion and Multi-Modal Hierarchical Neural Network for Activity Recognition in Lower Limb Prosthetics
Authors: S. Prakash M.Jeyasudha ,
Published: April 2024

Activity recognition plays pivotal role in enhancing functionality for prosthetic devices, ensuring seamless integration with users' movements. However, the complexity arises from the diverse data sources, including acceleration, angular velocity, joint angles, orientation, electromyography (EMG), and marker data, necessitating a robust approach to overcome challenges in information integration. The primary challenge lies in the effective utilization of multiple sensor modalities, each with unique characteristics and potential noise sources. The proposed solution addresses this by employing advanced sensor fusion techniques, such as Kalman filtering, during data collection. Synchronization and resampling ensure temporal consistency, while noise reduction techniques, such as low-pass filters, mitigate signal distortions. To further refine the process, a hybrid optimization-based feature selection Adaptive Step Size in Marine Predators Algorithm (ASSMPA) is introduced, focusing on marker data features. ASSMPA synergizes Marine Predators Algorithm (MPA) and Pathfinder Algorithm (PFA) for optimal feature selection in marine predator pathfinding tasks. The Feature Fusion step integrates attention mechanisms to dynamically weigh the significance of different sensor modalities during the fusion process. This strategic fusion enhances the overall performance of the Multi-Modal Hierarchical Neural Network (MMHNN). The proposed model is implemented using Python

Transport and Settling of Microplastics in Turbidity Currents
Authors: Sutherland Bruce
Published: April 2024

Although tens of millions of tons of plastic waste are released into the ocean each year, less than 300 kilotons remain on or near the ocean surface.  This is particularly puzzling because more than half of plastics that are produced are buoyant in sea water.   One mechanism that can result in buoyant plastic settling is the process of biofouling in which microbes and other organic material can accumulate on the plastics rendering them more dense.   Less studied is the accumulation of inorganic material on the plastics.  For example, clay has recently been shown to attach to plastics, particularly in the presence of surfactants.   Here we report on laboratory experiments showing that plastic particles which are less dense than fresh water can settle due to the accumulation of glass spheres ("sand") on their surface.  This process is shown to occur dynamically as sand and plastic particles mix turbulently during the impulsive release of a turbidity current, which can carry some of the plastic particles to depth along with the settling sand.

Implications of the jihadist terrorism in cyberspace
Authors: Brandea Bianca
Published: April 2024

The terrorist attack on the 11th of September, 2001, marked the change in the West’s perception of the Middle East and vice versa. Followed by the US military presence in the Middle East, this event contributed to the development of the means of terrorist actions around the world and the popularization of jihad. The hostile attitude of the West thus succeeded in maintaining the state of tension between the two spaces. Over time, jihadist and terrorist groups have been joined by members originating from the West who were convinced by the importance of the “missions” they later undertook. In the present paper, we will focus on the transposition and continuation of hostilities in both geographic and cyber spaces, with reference even to the current Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Authors: MINCULETE Gheorghe , PĂSTAE Veronica
Published: April 2024

The concept of resilience, suitable for specific operations, has been used within NATO since 2010. The particularity of the term resides in the characteristic phases of implementation in the allied operational environment, which generates appropriate conduct of identifying, analyzing, and avoiding risks, resistance to disruptive and impactful factors, recovery, restoration, and reconstruction of the initial force and action potential. The Alliance’s combatant forces will maintain integrity and adequate functionality, even under restrictive, difficult conditions, by implementing, at organizational and operational levels, the two components of layered resilience (operational or military and civil). In this way, a high level of protection, stability, and viability of combat structures of tactical and/or joint forces will be achieved, to face the threats and complex actions of unfriendly (enemy) forces. Through the findings, the present research includes a theoretical approach, with possibilities of concretization in applied resilience in NATO civilian and military fields, because it includes important programmatic details, related to the consequences of the Russian-Ukrainian armed confrontation, which started on February 24, 2022. From here, relevant elements resulted in the consolidation of action power of joint and tactical forces, meant to be engaged in national and multinational operations within the North Atlantic Alliance, against any hostile aggressive forces.

Published: April 2024

In order to explore the dynamic influence mechanism of the carbon reduction from the perspective of digital economy, this paper measures the scale index of digital economy, carbon emission intensity and carbon emission efficiency based on the panel data of 30 provinces in China from 2013 to 2020. On this basis, a model is constructed to explore the impact of digital economy on carbon emission, which provides inspiration for the realization of the carbon reduction promoted by digital economy. It is concluded that the upgrading of industrial structure, the reduction of energy intensity and the improvement of technological innovation level are all the paths for the digital economy to promote the reduction of carbon emissions. Among them, the upgrading of industrial structure and the improvement of technological innovation level play a weak intermediary role, while the reduction of energy intensity plays a strong intermediary role. The impact of digital economy on carbon emissions has spatial spillover between adjacent regions. The significance of this paper is to give a complete measurement model of digital economy and carbon emission under the framework of inter-provincial and inter-annual. After considering the mediating effect of variable influence, the transmission mechanism and spatial spillover effect of digital economy on carbon emission are analyzed.

Study on the Impact of Green GDP Accounting System on Climate - Based on Integrated Evaluation and Markov Modelling
Authors: Huang Yinan
Published: April 2024

GDP does not consider the impact of economic development on environmental hazards and resource consumption. Therefore, our team developed a reliable model and utilized the GGDP to assess the fiscal health of countries with the hope that governments will adopt policies to mitigate the impact of economic development on the global climate. To measure the financial health of each country's system, we selected raw data on five critical factors for 50 countries from 2010 to 2020. We then validated the data distribution patterns and selected the 80% quartile as the healthy range for each indicator. We used analytic hierarchical process (AHP) to determine the weights of each hand. Finally, we introduced the concept of the Economic Health Index (EHI) concept, which represents an economy's actual health. We also use Markov chains to predict the future global climate impact of flexible government policy measures to promote GGDP growth after GGDP replaces GDP. To measure the effect on global climate, we use the achievement of the GHG emissions and energy consumption targets agreed upon by countries in the Paris Agreement.

Published: April 2024

Early detection of machine failure is crucial in every industrial setting as it may prevent unexpected process downtimes as well as system failures. However, machine learning (ML) models are increasingly being utilized to forecast system failures in industrial maintenance, and among them, multilabel classification techniques act as efficient methods. Therefore, this study analyzed machine failure data with five types of machine failures. Initially, a feature selection approach was also carried out in this study to determine the variables which directly cause machine failure. Furthermore, multilabel k-nearest neighbours (MLkNN), multilabel adaptive resonance associative map (MLARAM), and multilabel twin support vector machine classifier (MLTSVM) in adapted algorithms, Binary Relevance, ClassifierChain, and LabelPowerSet in problem transformation approaches, and Random Label Space Partitioning with Label Powerset (RakelD) in ensemble classifiers were employed. To train these models, both the original data set as well as data frame after the feature selection was used, and hamming loss, accuracy, macro, and micro averages were calculated for each of these classifiers. According to the results, MLkNN in adapted algorithms and LabelPowerset in problem transformation approaches performed better than other classifiers used in this study. Therefore, it can be concluded that MLkNN and LabelPowerset could be used to classify multilabel with positive results.

Authors:   University of Peradeniya, Sri Lanka, de Silva Udara , Kumar Shamala ,   University of Peradeniya, Sri Lanka
Published: April 2024

Burnout is a psychological syndrome emerging as a prolonged response to chronic interpersonal stressors on the job. WHO defines burnout as an “occupational phenomenon” and is included in the 11th revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11). Research reveals the existence of this burnout phenomenon across a range of occupations, such as healthcare professionals, teachers, athletes, pilots, IT professionals etc. A study conducted by Yerbo, a mental wellbeing platform revealed that 2 in 5 of the workers in the IT industry show a high risk of burnout. At present, there are few tools available to measure burnout. After the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory (OLBI) is considered the most widely used measure of burnout and is also freely available. The current study is aimed at determining the measurement validity of the OLBI in the local context based on IT professionals. To determine the content validity of the OLBI, an expert panel was employed. In order to examine the construct validity and concurrent criterion validity, a questionnaire-based study was conducted among 161 (n = 161) randomly chosen IT professionals. MBI and DASS-21 were used to explore the convergent and divergent validity of the OLBI. Four items were deemed not essential to measure burnout based on content validation. The MTMM analysis revealed adequate evidence of the existence of both convergent and divergent validity of the OLBI. The current study was able to provide evidence of content, concurrent criterion and construct related validity of the OLBI in the Sri Lankan context based on IT professionals. These findings suggest that OLBI can be used as a reasonable tool to measure burnout among IT professionals in Sri Lanka. Availability of such a tool will undoubtedly help organizations in ensuring their workforce is healthy and productive.

O sorriso é uma das expressões mais significativas da nossa identidade e é capaz de transmitir uma infinidade de emoções e mensagens. Além disso, a estética do sorriso desempenha um papel fundamental na autoestima e na percepção da beleza facial. Nesse contexto, procedimentos odontológicos como a gengivectomia, a gengivoplastia e as facetas em resina surgem como opções valiosas para aprimorar a harmonia e a estética dentofacial (Francci, 2011) (França, 2012). A gengivectomia é um procedimento cirúrgico que visa à remoção do excesso de gengiva, permitindo que os dentes sejam mais visíveis e o sorriso adquira um aspecto mais harmônico.(Moura, 2015). As cirurgias estéticas para correção do sorriso gengival envolvem a elevação de um retalho mucoperiosteal para expor o osso e realizar procedimentos cirúrgicos, como osteotomia/osteoplastia. Isso possibilita o ajuste da altura da coroa dentária, reduzindo a exposição gengival. (Lobo, N. S et al, 2019) . Além das intervenções gengivais, as facetas em resina também desempenham um papel crucial na transformação do sorriso. Elas são finas camadas de material que são aplicadas diretamente nos dentes, corrigindo imperfeições, como descolorações, fraturas e desalinhamentos. A combinação da gengivectomia associada com aumento de coroa estético e facetas em resina oferece um potencial extraordinário para aprimorar a estética do sorriso, resultando em resultados impressionantes. (Muniz, 2022). Dessa Maneira,o presente trabalho tem como objetivo abordar um relato de caso de uma gengivoplastia associada à aplicação de facetas em resina, demonstrando os benefícios dessas intervenções no aperfeiçoamento estético do sorriso e, por conseguinte, na qualidade de vida dos pacientes. Este estudo de caso oferecerá uma visão detalhada dos procedimentos envolvidos, os desafios enfrentados e os resultados obtidos, contribuindo para o avanço do conhecimento na área da odontologia estética e reforçando a importância da harmonia gengival e dentária no sorriso humano.
