Effect of the Double-Line Spiral Tunnel Curvature on the Tunnel Construction Stability

In the construction of mountain highway, in order to avoid complicated geology and adapt to the requirements of the terrain of the large height difference and the large slope, the double-line spiral tunnels are gradually applied. The purpos...

Early Stage Risk Identification and Governance of Major Emerging Infectious Diseases: A Double-Case Study Based on the Chinese Context

Xuefeng Li,1,2 Hui Jiang,1 Xiaoyu Liang1 1School of Engineering Science, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, 100049, People’s Republic of China; 2School of Public Policy and Management, University of Chinese Academy of Scien...

A Distance Metric for Uneven Clusters of Unsupervised K-Means Clustering Algorithm

In this paper, we propose a new distance metric for the K-means clustering algorithm. Applying this metric in clustering a dataset, forms unequal clusters. This metric leads to a larger size for a cluster with a centroid away from the origi...

Hybrid drivetrain design: Working principle and application

Emerging engineering challenges in wind power electricity generation bond with stringent industrial requirements, have tendency to outline development and design process in the ready set go manner. From given predisposition one of the conse...

Battery Energy Storage Capacity Estimation for Microgrids Using Digital Twin Concept

Globally, renewable energy-based power generation is experiencing exponential growth due to concerns over the environmental impacts of traditional power generation methods. Microgrids (MGs) are commonly employed to integrate renewable sourc...

Synthetic biology open language (SBOL) version 3.1.0

Synthetic biology builds upon genetics, molecular biology, and metabolic engineering by applying engineering principles to the design of biological systems. When designing a synthetic system, synthetic biologists need to exchange informatio...

A Model to Predict Heart Disease Treatment Using Data Mining

Background and Aim: Nowadays heart disease is very common and is a major cause of mortality. Proper and early diagnosis of this disease is very important. Diagnostic methods and treatments of the disease are so expensive and have many side ...

A Systematic Literature Review on Modern Cryptographic and Authentication Schemes for Securing the Internet of Things

The rapid integration of the Internet of Things (IoT) into healthcare ecosystems has revolutionized patient monitoring and data accessibility; however, it has simultaneously expanded the cyber-attack surface, leaving sensitive medical data ...

Existence of Solutions: Investigating Fredholm Integral Equations via a Fixed-Point Theorem

Integral equations, which are defined as “the equation containing an unknown function under the integral sign”, have many applications of real-world problems. The second type of Fredholm integral equations is generally used in radiation tra...

Four-dimensional reconfigurable vascular tunneling machine of spatially programmed liquid crystal elastomers

Abstract Thrombosis in tortuous vessels causes blockages and pathological conditions. Current thrombolytics are inefficient, and mechanical thrombectomies lack adaptability, hindering thrombus clearance in complex geometries. Here, we propo...

Real-Time Power Electronics Laboratory to Strengthen Distance Learning Engineering Education on Smart Grids and Microgrids

In the science and engineering fields of study, a hands-on learning experience is as crucial a part of the learning process for the student as the theoretical aspect of a given subject. With the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, educational instit...

Experimentation in software engineering

A framework is presented for analyzing most of the experimental work performed in software engineering over the past several years. The framework of experimentation consists of four categories corresponding to phases of the experimentation ...
