Authors: Davies Emily Lydia
Published: November 2024

This paper explores the potential of Si-based nanomaterials to enhance the performance of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), particularly for electric vehicles (EVs). Traditional graphite anodes limit the energy density and range of EVs, increasing the need to search for alternative materials like silicon, which offers a much higher theoretical specific capacity. However, silicon’s application has been challenged by significant volume changes during cycling, leading to mechanical stress and failure. The use of nanotechnology, especially silicon nanomaterials, offers promising solutions to these challenges. Silicon nanostructures, such as nanowires, exhibit enhanced mechanical properties, allowing them to withstand volumetric changes and maintain high capacity during cycling. This review delves into the chemo-physical properties of silicon, the challenges posed by silicon anodes (SAs), and the recent advancements in silicon nanomaterials. Additionally, it also discusses different approaches to enhancing the performance of Si-based anodes, as well as the difficulties that exist now and the directions that future research in this exciting area is headed.
Research Progress on Improvement Strategies of Polymer Electrolytes in Solid-State Batteries
Authors: Zhou Hangyang
Published: November 2024

The solid electrolyte material can replace the liquid electrolyte in the lithium-ion batteries, which ensures higher safety due to the flammable and corroded of liquid electrolyte. The polymer electrolytes demonstrated feasibility due to its suitable ductility. However, lithium ions in the polymer electrolytes are more difficult to ionize, resulting in worse ionic conductivity. At the same time, the mechanical strength of polymer electrolytes is not as good as that of inorganic electrolytes, which is not enough to inhibit the penetration of lithium dendrite. To solve these problems, researchers adopt two strategies: adding fillers or reactants and constructing artificial interface layers, focusing on improving ionic conductivity and mechanical strength. Based on the latest research, the problems faced by polymer electrolytes and improvement measures are reviewed, which provide references for the future development of polymer electrolytes.

Design of Silicon-Based Anode Materials for High Energy Density Li-Ion Batteries
Authors: Cui Haonan
Published: November 2024

Compared to other types of batteries, lithium batteries have an extremely high energy density, which means they can store more energy while maintaining a smaller size and weight. The ideal electrode material must have a high lithium ion capacity to store many lithium ions. In addition, the electrode material must have good electronic conductivity to promote lithium ions' rapid entry and exit. However, traditional carbon materials have limited theoretical specific capacity, and the transmission of lithium-ion batteries in traditional materials is limited, resulting in a significant decrease in capacity. Silicon has a theoretical capacity of up to 4200mAh/g, more than ten times the capacity of commercial graphite negative electrodes. In addition, silicon and lithium can undergo alloying reactions to form Li Si alloys, which helps improve the material's specific capacity. This article first summarizes the advantages of electric vehicles and lithium-ion batteries. Then, the benefits and challenges of using silicon-based materials as negative electrodes for lithium-ion batteries were elaborated in detail, and finally, the prospects of silicon-based materials in lithium-ion battery applications were summarized. This article has reference significance in improving the energy density of lithium-ion batteries.

Authors: IHSAN QUA , KHAN KA
Published: November 2024

Minor head injuries are a common occurrence in emergency departments, often resulting from road traffic accidents, falls, and other blunt trauma incidents. While patients with a Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score of 13 to 15 are generally considered to have minor injuries, computed tomography (CT) imaging plays a crucial role in identifying potential intracranial complications that may not be evident clinically. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the computed tomography (CT) findings in patients presenting with minor head injuries to determine the prevalence of intracranial complications. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 86 patients presenting with minor head injuries at a tertiary care hospital. Minor head injuries were defined as having a Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score of 13 to 15. Patients with polytrauma, previous neurosurgery, or severe critical conditions were excluded. Clinical assessments included demographic information, injury mechanisms, and symptoms such as loss of consciousness, vomiting, headaches, and post-trauma seizures. All patients underwent CT scans, which were interpreted by radiologists blinded to clinical data. CT findings were categorized, and statistical analysis was performed to evaluate the prevalence of different intracranial injuries. Results: The mean age of the study participants was 40.27 years, with a male predominance (61.6%). Road traffic accidents were the most common cause of injury (44.2%), followed by falls (37.2%). CT scans revealed that 31.4% of patients had subgaleal hematomas, 11.6% had subdural hematomas, 8.1% had skull fractures, and 5.8% had brain contusions. Notably, 43% of the patients presented with normal CT findings, indicating the absence of acute complications. Conclusion: Although a substantial number of patients with minor head injuries had normal CT findings, the detection of significant intracranial conditions such as subgaleal and subdural hematomas emphasizes the importance of routine imaging in this patient population. Early detection through CT imaging is essential in guiding clinical management and preventing potential complications in patients with minor head injuries.

The risk of malignant transformation increases with burn severity and long-term scarring. Understanding the prevalence of SCC in post-burn patients is crucial for implementing preventive and management strategies. Objective: To assess the frequency of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in patients with post-burn scars and evaluate associations between demographic and burn-related factors with the development of SCC. Methods: A prospective descriptive study was conducted on 70 patients with a history of burn injuries and resulting scars. The study was carried out over a defined period at a tertiary care hospital. Patient demographic variables such as age, gender, socioeconomic background, and education level were collected. The severity of burns was categorized as partial-thickness or full-thickness, and the aetiology of burns was classified as thermal, chemical, or electrical. Burn locations were also documented. Histopathological examination of biopsy specimens from suspicious scars confirmed SCC diagnosis. Statistical analysis using chi-square tests was employed to identify associations between categorical variables and SCC occurrence. Results: Of the 70 patients included, 53 were males (75.7%) and 17 females (24.3%), with a mean age of 53.97 ± 4.91 years. Full-thickness burns were observed in 57.1% of the patients, while 42.9% had partial-thickness burns. The most common burn cause was thermal (45.7%), with the lower extremities being the most affected region (57.1%). SCC developed in 8.6% (6 out of 70) of the patients. The latency period for SCC ranged between 28 and 37 years, with an average of 31.5 years. Full-thickness burns were more commonly associated with SCC development compared to partial-thickness burns. Conclusion: The study reported a frequency of 8.6% for squamous cell carcinoma in patients with post-burn scars. Full-thickness burns were associated with a higher risk of SCC development. Long-term surveillance and proactive management of burn scars are critical in preventing malignant transformations.

Published: November 2024

The impact of climate change on maize production is a growing concern. Changes in temperature, precipitation patterns, and the increased frequency of extreme weather events can significantly affect maize yields. Recognizing the importance of developing climate-resilient maize varieties, an experiment was conducted in 2022 to identify such genotypes. Ten commercial maize varieties were planted with three different sowing dates in the spring season: January 15th, January 30th, and February 15th. The results indicated that Sahiwal Gold and Malka 2016 were climate-resilient and produced high grain yields compared to other varieties across the three sowing dates. The findings concluded that the January 15th sowing date was the most effective, with genotypes producing the highest yields. Physio-morphic traits such as relative water content, chlorophyll content, days to tasseling, days to silking, plant height, and yield related traits ear length, and 100-kernel weight supported the plants in producing grain yield per hectare under changing climatic conditions. The variety Pop-1 was found to be susceptible to climate change, resulting in the lowest grain yield. The selected genotypes will be valuable in breeding programs aimed at developing climate-resilient maize varieties.

Published: November 2024

At present, the application of remote sensing (RS) data achieved from satellite imagery or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) has become common for crop classification procedures, i.e. crop mapping, soil classification, or prediction of yield. The classification of food crop utilizing RS images (RSI) is one of the major applications of RS in farming. It contains the usage of aerial or satellite images for classifying and identifying dissimilar kinds of food crops developed in an exact region. This data is beneficial for estimation of yield, crop monitoring, and land management. Meeting the conditions for examining these data needs more refined techniques and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, which deliver essential support. Recently, the usage of deep learning (DL) for crop type classification with RS images could help sustainable farming practices by providing appropriate and precise data on the kinds and features of crops. In this study, we offer an Automated Agricultural Crop Type Mapping Utilizing Fusion of Transfer Learning and Tasmanian Devil Optimization (AACTM-FTLTDO) algorithm on Remote Sensing Imagery. The primary goal of the AACTM-FTLTDO methodology is to accurately detect and classify crop types for more precise agricultural monitoring using remote sensing technologies. To accomplish that, the AACTM-FTLTDO model employs a fusion of transfer learning techniques involving three models such as SqueezeNet, CapsNet, and ShuffleNetV2 to capture diverse, multi-scale spatial and spectral features. For the crop type classification and detection process, the auto-encoder (AE) classifier can be employed. Eventually, the tasmanian devil optimization (TDO) technique was deployed to modify the hyperparameter of the AE technique for ensuring optimal model configurations and reducing computational complexity. A wide range of experimentation studies is made and the results are examined under numerous measures. The comparative study shows that the AACTM-FTLTDO technique performs better than existing approaches

Cotton is the most significant cash crop in India. Each year cotton production is decreasing because of the attack of the disease. Plant diseases are usually produced by pathogens and pest insects and reduce the yield to a large scale if not controlled in time. The hour requires an effective plant disease diagnosis system that can assist the farmers in their farming and cultivation. Nevertheless, cotton production is harmfully affected by the presence of viruses, pests, bacterial pathogens, and so on. For the past decade or so, numerous image processing or deep learning (DL)--based automated plant leaf disease recognition techniques have been established but, unluckily, they infrequently focus on the cotton leaf diseases. Therefore, this article develops an Intelligent Detection and Classification of Cotton Leaf Diseases Using Transfer Learning and the Honey Badger Algorithm (IDCCLD-TLHBA) model with Satellite Images. The proposed IDCCLD-TLHBA technique intends to determine and classify various kinds of cotton leaf diseases using satellite imagery. In the IDCCLD-TLHBA technique, the wiener filtering (WF) model is used to reduce noise and enhance image quality for subsequent analysis. For feature extraction, the IDCCLD-TLHBA technique applies the MobileNetV2 model to capture relevant features from the satellite images while maintaining computational efficiency. In addition, the stacked long short-term memory (SLSTM) method is employed for the classification and recognition of cotton leaf diseases. Eventually, the honey badger algorithm (HBA) is used to optimally select the parameters involved in the SLSTM model to ensure a better configuration of the network to enhance results. The performance validation of the IDCCLD-TLHBA method is carried out against the benchmark dataset and the stimulated results highlight the better results of the IDCCLD-TLHBA model across the existing techniques.

The demand for high-quality Direct-to-Home (D2H) television broadcasting services delivered via Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite constellations has surged in recent years. To address the growing needs of viewers, satellite communication must optimize the scheduling and routing of signals while balancing conflicting objectives. This research presents a novel approach named as Multi-Objective Deep Routing and Scheduling (MODRS) algorithm that is designed to tackle the challenges of signal latency minimization, bandwidth utilization maximization, and viewer demand satisfaction. The Multi-Objective Deep Neural Network (MODNN) is implemented in this paper to make intelligent routing and scheduling decisions for balancing multiple objectives. To enhance the learning process and provide training stability, the experience replay is used and the epsilon-greedy strategy is included to balance exploitation and exploration strategies. The Pareto-front concept is used for efficient D2H television broadcasting in the LEO satellite constellation. The experimental validation is conducted based on low-latency broadcasting, high-bandwidth utilization, viewer demand flexibility, adaptive signal strength and resource allocation efficiency. Using a series of simulated scenarios, this paper explores the versatility and robustness of MODRS, showcasing its exceptional performance in real-time, resource-efficient, disaster recovery, and rural broadcasting contexts. The findings indicate that MODRS is well-suited for a wide range of real-world applications, from low-latency broadcasting and disaster recovery to cost-effective rural expansion, enhancing the quality and accessibility of D2H television services. The MODRS algorithm emerges as a transformative solution for satellite communication optimization, ensuring viewer satisfaction and operational efficiency.
