Is Bitcoin a Safe Haven for Indian Investors? A GARCH Volatility Analysis
subject: Bitcoin; DCC GARCH; EGARCH; gold; volatility spill over
description: This paper attempts to understand the dynamic interrelationships and financial asset capabilities of Bitcoin by analysing several aspects of its volatility vis-a-vis other asset classes. This study aims to analyse the volatility dynamics of the returns of Bitcoin. An asymmetric GARCH model (EGARCH) is used to investigate whether Bitcoin may be useful in risk management and ideal for risk-averse investors in anticipation of negative shocks to the market (leverage effect). This paper also examines Bitcoin as an investment and hedge alternative to gold as well as NSE NIFTY using a multivariate DCC GARCH model. DCC GARCH models are also used to check whether correlation (co-movement) between the markets is time-varying, examine returns and volatility spillovers between markets and the effect of the outbreak of COVID-19 in India on the investigated markets. The results show that given the supply of Bitcoin is fixed, low returns realisation is equivalent to excess supply over demand wherein investors are selling off Bitcoin during bad times. The positive co-movement between Bitcoin and gold during the COVID-19 outbreak shows that investors perceived Bitcoin as a relatively safe investment. However, overall analysis shows that Bitcoin was not considered a safe hedge and an investment option by Indian investors during the study period. 2022 by the authors.

Machine Learning and Signal Processing Methodologies to Diagnose Human Knee Joint Disorders: A Computational Analysis
description: Computer-aid diagnostic (CAD) has emerged as a highly innovative research topic in diverse fields which includes medical imaging systems, radiology diagnostics, and so on. These are the systems that majorly assist doctors by the way of interpretation of medical data or images. In the diagnosis of knee joint disorder technique, both time and frequency-based analysis can be done. These non-stationary and non-linear signals are processed into three important methods, namely VMD, TVF-EMD, and CEEMDAN. To analyze the vibroarthrographic (VAG) signal, the initial stage is to compute the mode strategies termed as intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) which can be attained only after performing the transformations. In our chapter, we analyzed Complete Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition with Adaptive Noise (CEEMDAN) for computing the mode signals. The CEEMDAN method utilized the time and frequency data for the available features. The feature extraction depends purely on pixel intensity and the statistical parameters. The classification of available data samples is done through the Least Square Support Vector Machine (LS-SVM) and SVM-Recursion of Feature Elimination (SVM-RFE) for the efficient analysis of healthy and unhealthy data samples. 2024 selection and editorial matter, Hemachandran K., Raul V.

Preparation and Electrochemical Investigation of NiO Hollow Sphere from Bio Waste (Sugarcane Bagasse) Extract for Energy Storage Applications
subject: Carbon sphere; Electrochemical test; Hydrothermal method; NiO hollow sphere; Supercapacitor electrode
description: This work describes how to easily make NiO hollow sphere composites using waste sugarcane bagasse for use in supercapacitor applications. NiO hollow spheres (NOHSs) nanomaterialis effectively synthesized through the nano carbon sphere (CS) template. A core-shell structure was created on the carbon spheres surface by NiO nanoparticles that were several nanometers in size. The structural and morphological of the synthesized materials were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning electron microscope (SEM). The energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) was used to confirm the presence of the elements in NOHS. The electrochemical behaviour of hierarchical CSs and NOHSs electrode was examined through cyclic voltammetry (CV), Galvanostatic charge/discharge (SC) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). In GCD analysis, NOHSs electrode showed a concentrated specific capacitance (Csp) of 913.79F/g at 5A/g current density. The porous conductive carbon with macro pores that speeds up the transit of electron and electrolyte ions causes noticeably better capacitive behavior.

Exploration of low heat rejection engine characteristics powered with carbon nanotubes-added waste plastic pyrolysis oil
subject: Low heat rejection engine; Nanoadditive; NOx reduction; Pyrolysis process; Waste plastic oil
description: Compression ignition (CI)-powered alternative energy sources are currently the main focus due to the constantly rising worldwide demand for energy and the growing industrialization of the automotive sector. Due to their difficulty of disposal, non-degradable plastics contribute significantly to solid waste and pollution. The waste plastics were simply dropped into the sea, wasting no energy in the process. Attempts have been made to convert plastic waste into usable energy through recycling. Waste plastic oil (WPO) is produced by pyrolyzing waste plastic to produce a fuel that is comparable to diesel. Initially, a standard CI engine was utilized for testing with diesel and WPO20 (20% WPO+80% diesel). When compared to conventional fuel, the brake thermal efficiency (BTE) of WPO20 dropped by 3.2%, although smoke, carbon monoxide (CO), and hydrocarbon (HC) emissions were reasonably reduced. As a result, nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions decreased while HC and CO emissions marginally increased in subsequent studies utilizing WPO20 with the addition of 5% water. When combined with WPO20 emulsion, nanoadditives have the potential to significantly cut HC and CO emissions without impacting performance. The possibility of incorporating nanoparticles into fuel to improve performance and lower NOx emissions should also be explored. In order to reduce heat loss through the coolant, prevent heat transfer into the cylinder liner, and increase combustion efficiency, the thermal barrier coating (TBC) material is also coated inside the combustion chamber surface. In this work, low heat rejection (LHR) engines powered by emulsion WPO20 containing varying percentages of carbon nanotubes (CNT) are explored. The LHR engine was operated with a combination of 10 ppm, 20 ppm, and 30 ppm CNT mixed with WPO20. It was shown that while using 20 ppm of CNT with WPO20, smoke, hydrocarbons, and carbon monoxide emissions were reduced by 11.9%, 21.8%, and 22.7%, respectively, when compared to diesel o…

Navigating resource scarcity in a changing climate: AI-powered perspectives on mental health
description: In the backdrop of the extensive global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, environmental crises have, to a certain degree, taken a back seat. The pandemic-induced scarcity mindset, emphasizing immediate short-term needs over long-term considerations, has played a role in this shift in priorities. This scarcity mindset, prevalent during the pandemic, poses a risk to pro-environmental behavior and may contribute to environmental degradation, thereby heightening the likelihood of future pandemics. This chapter advocates for a reevaluation of pro-environmental actions, emphasizing their role in addressing various human needs, especially during periods of scarcity. AI-driven chatbots possess the capability to significantly enhance accessibility to affordable and efficient mental health services by complementing the efforts of clinicians. To safeguard pro-environmental behavior, we propose a reconceptualization that positions these actions not merely as value-laden or effortful but as pragmatic measures essential for resource conservation, particularly in times of scarcity. The study explores, the intricate dynamics of resource scarcity, climate change, and mental health, employing AI-powered perspectives to navigate this complex interplay. 2024, IGI Global.

Attenuation properties of epoxy-Ta2O5 and epoxy-Ta2O5-Bi2O3 composites at ?-ray energies 59.54 and 662 keV
subject: composites; films; mechanical properties; thermogravimetric analysis (TGA)
description: Epoxy resin filled with suitable high Z elements can be a potential shield for X-rays and ?-rays. In this work, we present the ?-ray attenuation properties of epoxy composites filled with (030 wt%) Tantalum pentoxide (Ta2O5) and Ta2O5-Bi2O3, which were prepared by open mold cast technique. X-ray diffraction patterns showed crystalline peaks of Ta2O5 and bismuth oxide (Bi2O3) in the prepared epoxy-Ta2O5 and epoxy-Ta2O5-Bi2O3 composites. Homogeneity of the samples at higher filler wt% was revealed by SEM images. Mechanical characterization showed the enhanced mechanical strength of epoxy-Ta2O5-Bi2O3 composites compared to epoxy-Ta2O5. Higher storage modulus and glass transition temperature of the epoxy-Ta2O5-Bi2O3 composites showed enhanced stiffness and thermal stability when compared to neat and epoxy-Ta2O5. Decrease in the value of tan(?) at higher content of filler loadings indicated the good adhesion between filler and matrix. Mass attenuation coefficients of epoxy-Ta2O5 (30 wt%) composites at ?-ray energies 59.54 and 662 keV were found to be 0.876 cm2 g1 and 0.084 cm2 g1, while that of epoxy-Ta2O5-Bi2O3 (30 wt% Bi2O3) composite were 1.271 cm2 g1 and 0.088 cm2 g1, respectively. The epoxy-5% Ta2O5-30% Bi2O3 composites with higher ?/? value and tensile strength may be a potential ?-ray shield in various radiation environments. 2020 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Poly(vinyl alcohol)bismuth oxide composites for X-ray and ?-ray shielding applications
subject: applications; irradiation; mechanical properties; optical properties; thermogravimetric analysis (TGA)
description: Polymer composites, which are light in weight, cost effective, and less toxic, have potential applications in X-ray and ?-ray shielding and protection. In this work, we have explored the efficacy of poly(vinyl alcohol)bismuth oxide composites as radiation shielding materials. Poly(vinyl alcohol) composites with different wt % (050) of bismuth were prepared by a simple solution casting technique. Structural and thermal characterization of these samples was carried out using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). TGA revealed the enhanced thermal stability of these composites. AC conductivity measurements and optical spectroscopy were used to analyze their electrical behavior. The composites showed low conductivity, and the energy gap obtained also showed their tendency to be insulators. The radiation attenuation properties were investigated using X-ray (5.895 and 6.490 keV) and ?-ray (59.54 and 662 keV) transmission measurements. The shielding efficiency of the composites increased with filler wt %. The 40 wt % composites exhibited mass attenuation coefficients of 122.68 and 93.02 cm2/g at photon energies of 5.895 and 6.490 keV, respectively, while the 50 wt % composites showed 1.57 and 0.092 cm2/g at photon energies of 59.54 and 662 keV, respectively. The effective atomic number quantifies the probability of interaction of radiation with matter. The effective atomic number of the composites calculated by the direct method was in good agreement with the theoretical value obtained from Auto-Zeff software. 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl.

Attenuation parameters of polyvinyl alcohol-tungsten oxide composites at the photon energies 5.895, 6.490, 59.54 and 662 keV
subject: mass attenuation coefficient; radiation shielding; tungsten filled polyvinyl alcohol composite
description: The growing demand for lightweight, non-toxic and effective X-A nd ?-ray shielding materials in various fields has led to the exploration of various polymer composites for shielding applications. In this study, tungsten filled polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) composites of varying WO3 concentrations (0-50 wt%) were prepared by solution cast technique. The structural, morphological, and thermal properties of the prepared composite films were studied using X-ray diffraction technique (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The AC conductivity studies showed the low conductivity property of the composites. The X-ray (5.895 and 6.490 keV) and ?-ray (59.54 and 662 keV) attenuation studies performed using CdTe and NaI(Tl) detector spectrometers revealed a noticeable increase in shielding efficiency with increase in filler wt%. The effective atomic number (Zeff) calculated by the direct method agreed with the values obtained using Auto-Zeff software. The % heaviness showed that tungsten filled polyvinyl alcohol composites are lighter than traditional shielding materials. 2020 M V Muthamma et al., published by Sciendo 2020.

Micro and nano Bi2O3 filled epoxy composites: Thermal, mechanical and ?-ray attenuation properties
subject: Bismuth oxide; Epoxy; Micro/nano composites; ?-Ray attenuation studies
description: Polymer composites have attracted considerable attention as potential light-weight and cost-effective materials for radiation shielding and protection. In view of this, the present work focusses on development of lead-free composites of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) epoxy resin with micro (~ 10 ?m) and nano (~ 20 nm) bismuth (III) oxide (Bi2O3) fillers, using solution casting technique. Thermal, mechanical and ?-ray attenuation properties of the composites were studied by varying the filler loading. Inclusion of the fillers into epoxy matrix was confirmed both structurally and morphologically by XRD and SEM, respectively. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) showed the thermal stability of composites to be as high as 400 C. The nanocomposites exhibited relatively higher thermal stability than their micro counterparts. Among the composites, 14 wt% nano-Bi2O3/epoxy composites showed highest tensile strength of 326 MPa, which is about 38% higher than 30 wt% micro Bi2O3/epoxy composites. Mass attenuation coefficients (?/?) of the composites were evaluated at ?-ray energies ranging from 0.356 to 1.332 MeV. Nanocomposites showed better ?-ray shielding at all energies (0.356, 0.511, 0.662, 1.173, 1.280 and 1.332 MeV) than micro composites with same filler loading. These studies revealed the significance of nano-sized fillers in enhancing overall performance of the composites. 2021 Elsevier Ltd

A reconfigurable integrated level shifted carrier based PWM method for modular multilevel converters
subject: carrier based sinusoidal pulse width modulation; harmonic distortion; modular multilevel converters; pulse width modulation
description: This article presents a reconfigurable integrated level shifted carrier-based pulse width modulation (ILSC-PWM) method for modular multilevel converters (MMCs). The principles of basic level shifted carrier-based PWM (LSC-PWM) methods such as phase disposition PWM (PD-PWM), phase opposition disposition PWM (POD-PWM) and alternate phase opposition disposition PWM (APOD-PWM) methods are combined to develop the concept of reconfigurable ILSC-PWM method. The main objectives of the proposed reconfigurable ILSC-PWM method is to develop the pulse width modulated output voltage with both half-wave and quarter-wave symmetries and to reduce the total harmonic distortion (THD). A simplified mathematical approach is developed to formulate reconfigurable single ILSC wave for MMC with N number of submodules (SMs) per arm. The functionality and performance of the reconfigurable ILSC-PWM method are carried out on three-phase five-level MMC in MATLAB/Simulink. A hardware prototype of single-phase five-level MMC is designed for experimental validation. The proposed ILSC-PWM method is implemented on an Altera/Cyclone I series (EP1C12Q240C8N) field programmable gate array (FPGA). Computer Simulations and laboratory experimental results are presented. 2022 Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan.

An Efficient Sorting Algorithm for Capacitor Voltage Balance of Modular Multilevel Converter With Space Vector Pulsewidth Modulation
subject: Analogue sorting; capacitor voltage balancing; modular multilevel converters (MMCs); space vector pulsewidth modulation (SVPWM)
description: Thisarticle presents an efficient analogue sorting algorithm for balancing the submodule (SM) capacitor voltages of modular multilevel converter (MMC). The proposed analogue sorting algorithm offers the advantage of fast convergence rate without any need of recursive loops for the implementation on embedded devices. It can be easily implemented with combinational logic operations on field programmable gate array (FPGA) and provides less hardware and computational overhead. The functionality and performance of the proposed analogue sorting algorithm is evaluated with the simulation model of three phase five-level MMC in MATLAB/Simulink environment. The real time implementation of the proposed sorting algorithm with the SM capacitor voltage balancing strategy is implemented on Altera/Cylone - I (EP1C12Q240C8N) FPGA. A five-level continuous space vector pulsewidth modulation (CSVPWM) is realized on a PIC microcontroller (PIC18F452). A down-scaled model of single-phase five-level MMC is designed and constructed to investigate the reliable and stable operation of MMC with the proposed analogue sorting algorithm and SVPWM method. Simulation and experimental results are presented for validation. 1986-2012 IEEE.
