Neural-Network and Multivariate-Normal-Distribution Hybrid Method for Real-Time Ground-Shaking Reconstruction
Authors: Fornasari Simone Francesco , Pazzi Veronica , Costa Giovanni 
Published: September 2024

ABSTRACT
Ground-shaking maps provide a spatial representation of the impact of a seismic event in terms of ground-motion parameters (GMPs), especially useful in the context of seismic monitoring and civil protection operations. Algorithms used to compute these maps usually rely on seismic source parameters to steer the interpolation process and consequently are limited to operate in near-real time. The present work introduces a novel algorithm that combines neural networks with the multivariate normal distribution method to reconstruct ground-shaking maps using only data available in real time, improving on previously proposed algorithms. The core idea of the proposed algorithm is to maintain the structure proposed by ShakeMap while removing the dependence on the source parameters, imposed by the use of ground-motion prediction equations, by replacing them with an appropriate neural network working on the GMPs recorded in real time at the seismic stations. The overall workflow of the method and the details of the neural network architecture and training are described. A model trained on synthetic and recorded data to target seismic events affecting the Italian territory is tested using the 2016 Norcia, Italy, earthquake showing the method reconstruction capabilities, its robustness to noise and to network geometry changes, and its real-time potential.
Crustal Azimuthal Anisotropy in Eastern North China Derived from Ambient Noise Tomography

Abstract
Investigating the crustal anisotropy features of eastern North China is of great significance for understanding the tectonic deformation mechanisms and the shallow response to the destruction of the North China Craton. We apply ambient noise tomography to determine the Rayleigh-wave phase velocity and azimuthal anisotropy at 8–35 s periods in eastern North China. The results show significant heterogeneity in crustal velocity and anisotropy. The short-period velocity and anisotropy are primarily related to surface structures. The pronounced anisotropy observed between the basin and uplifts, with the fast axis aligning parallel to the boundary strike, is likely attributed to the velocity and topographic contrasts. The fast axis orientation within the Bohai Bay basin exhibits northwest–southeast to north-northwest–south-southeast directions in the northern part and nearly east–west direction in the southern part, showing different deformation patterns within the basin. Strong anisotropy and sharp changes in fast axis orientation are observed in focal areas of three major earthquakes, suggesting a correlation between the genesis of strong earthquakes and the anisotropy features. The fast axis in the Yanshan Mountains aligns nearly east–west in the west to east-northeast–west-southwest in the east, likely related to the extensional tectonic environment in North China. At longer periods, the anisotropy strength decreases and fast axis orientation changes, indicating that the northwestern part of the Yanshan Mountains is influenced by the residual magmatism beneath the Quaternary volcanoes. The fast axis along the Tanlu fault zone (TLFZ) is generally oriented northeast–southwest at all periods, consistent with the fault’s strike. The anisotropy features provide evidence for the TLFZ cutting through the crust and uppermost mantle. The fault activity is currently dominated by strike-slip motion. The inconsistent anisotropy patterns in the crust and upper mantle suggest that the deformations in the crust and mantle are possibly decoupled.
Artificial intelligence in dental practice: An integrated approach
Authors: Aggarwal Juhi , Singh Priya 
Published: September 2024

Artificial intelligence (AI) has grown tremendously in importance and has presence in many different industries, including dentistry. By mimicking human intelligence, it can make complex forecasts and judgments in the medical field, particularly in endodontics. A variety of artificial intelligence models, such as convolutional neural networks and/or artificial neural networks, have shown promise in endodontics. These models have been used to study the anatomy of the root canal system, predict the viability of dental pulp stem cells, measure working lengths, identify periapical lesions and root fractures, and predict the outcome of retreatment procedures. Artificial intelligence (AI) technology is utilized in dentistry to expedite the comprehension of massive amounts of data and provide clinical decision-making support. This work aims to comprehensively review the areas in which artificial intelligence (AI) is now having a significant impact on clinical dentistry. Artificial intelligence (AI), which is evolving at a rapid pace, has the potential to replace physical expertise in dentistry. To reduce mistakes and oversight, these technologies must also be employed carefully and under human supervision. Early and accurate diagnosis of oral problems leads to better outcomes for patients.

Published: September 2024

The aim of this systematic review is to analyse the effect of post placement on single unit full coverage restorations in endodontically treated teeth. Published articles related to post placement on single unit full coverage restorations in endodontically treated teeth which includes original research and literature review from databases such as PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane, Ovid Medline etc., were taken into the study for review. Articles from 2002 to 2023 were included. Two authors independently extracted data and assessed the quality of the selected studies.Six studies involving 991 patients were analyzed in this systematic review, which comprised 229 anterior and 910 posterior teeth. The risk of failure or the survival rate was associated with the teeth that had no post placement when the number of coronal walls was less than two. When three or four coronal walls present the success or survival rate seem to be higher with the post placement. Post-retained crowns are better, post-free crowns may be considered when three or four tooth walls are still present, whereas teeth with one or two remaining walls may be better candidates for post-retained crowns. When the ferrule is absent, prosthetic components may be explored

Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) is a specialized imaging technology designed to create accurate 3D images of craniofacial anatomy while using significantly less radiation than traditional CT scans. This advancement allows clinicians to closely examine dental and maxillofacial structures, forensic analysis, and modern therapeutic techniques.To evaluate several anatomical variants of the anterior loop of the mental foramen using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT).The study involved 30 randomly selected patients aged 20-60 year from the departmental OPD, who underwent CBCT of the anterior mandibular region to assess the mental foramen. After obtaining a detailed history, a diagnosis was made and explained to the patients. Data were analyzed according to the classification by Solar et al. (1994).Type 1 mental nerve loop presence was 6.6% greater on the right side (13.3%) than on the left side (6.7%), while Type 3 mental nerve loop presence was 6.6% higher on the left side (63.3%) than on the right side (56.7%) based on a comparison of the anterior loop of the mental foramen.However, Type 2 was similar on both the right (30.0%) and the left (30.0%) sides. The anterior loop of the mental foramen is an important anatomical feature and was comparable (Type 1/Type 2/Type 3) in patients on the right and left side (p &#62; 0.05) (χ2=0.78, p = 0.678), showing no significant difference. Understanding its anatomy and occurrence has a significant impact on therapeutic strategies.

Authors: Oyewale Johnson A. , Tartibu Lagouge K. , Okokpujie and Imhade P. 
Published: September 2024

The rising challenge of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) waste necessitates efficient collection methods to mitigate environmental impacts. The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is one of the Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) approaches utilized in this study. The Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to the Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) was used to rank each alternative according to the objective weight that AHP had produced. Also, sensitivity analysis was performed to determine how robust the findings were when considering equal weights and entropy weights to maximize PET waste collection techniques. The alternative achieved the objective of obtaining the best collection method, Threshold Plastic Bottle Waste Collection (Tpbw), out of all the three alternatives considered. Another MCDA approach, VIseKriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje (VIKOR), was used to compare the results and validate the ranking result achieved by the TOPSIS method. The VIKOR technique&#039;s validation of the TOPSIS approach showed that the outcomes were highly consistent. Data for the study were gathered from the archives of waste management companies on possible practices of plastic waste collection addressing costs, environmental impacts, social acceptance, feasibility, and efficiency. The findings provide a prioritized framework for enhancing PET waste collection strategies, contributing to sustainable waste management. Many criteria are considered when deciding the best collecting method for PET waste recycling, making it challenging. By using criteria importance, multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) was applied in this study, and the objective weight of the criteria was determined using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP). The five criteria considered in this study are Initial investment cost, Operational cost, Transportation cost, Environmental risk, Employment potential, and the objective weights allocated to them. AHP results 0.4952, 0.1997, 0.1565, 0.0870, and 0.0616 are respectively determined.

Public Oil and Natural Gas Field Research Helps to Accelerate Technological Adavances

Published: September 2024

Abstract
The Department of Energy (DOE), over its nearly 50-year history, has managed its oil and natural gas research and development (R&D) mission through scientific research carried out in government-run or contractor-run test sites, through research grants to small businesses, and through extramural research projects contracted with industry and university partners or other research institutions. At times, DOE has sought to expand its R&D footprint by venturing into the field to do experiments and gather data.
During the past ten years, DOE's National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) has undertaken a number of field research initiatives, referred to as "field test sites," that have achieved varying successes. The rationale behind these field test sites is based on the idea that DOE should partner with industry to gain access to historic, current, and emerging producing oil and natural gas fields to accomplish three objectives: (1) publicly test new tools and methods developed by NETL and industry, (2) gather comprehensive data sets and make them accessible for analysis by broad teams of researchers, and (3) attack higher-risk scientific research problems that private industry consortia have not prioritized for funding. In doing so, the primary goal has been to accelerate the development, application and adoption of new technologies and approaches to maximize domestic oil and natural gas recovery and, more recently, reduce environmental impacts.
This approach is not new. For example, in the 1980s and 1990s, DOE (and its precursor organization) funded the Western Gas Sands and Eastern Gas Shales R&D programs (WGSP and EGSP). The WGSP included the drilling and logging of wells at a multi-well field test site in the Piceance Basin, data from which were used to build comprehensive models of tight gas sand geology and production capacity. Similarly, the EGSP program drilled, logged, and tested a number of wells across multiple Eastern basins, helping to design and test well logging and completion techniques suited for tight gas shales and characterizing the gas content and productive capacity of formations that were (at that time) not perceived as economically productive. The public findings of these two scientific inquiries helped to accelerate a revolution in "unconventional" natural gas production that remains the driving force behind the U.S. global leadership in natural gas production today.
In this paper, we point out the advantages of public upstream oil and natural gas field research, highlighting the success of four of the past decade's field test site projects: the Marcellus Shale Energy and Environment Lab (MSEEL) in West Virginia, the Hydraulic Fracturing Test Site 1 (HFTS1) and Hydraulic Fracturing Test Site 2 (HFTS2) in West Texas, and the North Slope Polymer Flood Test Site in Alaska. In addition, we provide detail on 9 other field projects that are currently underway.
