Stir Speed and Reinforcement Effects on Tensile Strength in Al-Based Composites
subject: AMCs; Squeeze casting and optimization Techniques
description: This study focuses on the preparation of Al-based hybrid composites using AA7475 as the main alloy reinforced with two materials, ZrO2 and SiC. The combination of stir-squeeze processing techniques was employed to create various specimens by varying four parameters: Stir-speed, Stir-time, reinforcements, and squeeze pressure. Taguchi design was utilized to generate specimens for analyzing their mechanical properties, specifically tensile strength, hardness, and porosity.The results indicated that the highest porosity (4.44%) was observed in the L16 test, with a combination of 700rpm stir speed, 25 mins stir time, 2wt% reinforcements, and 80MPa squeeze pressure. On the other hand, the lowest porosity (2.61%) was found in the L7 test, with 800rpm stir speed, 30 mins stir time, 2wt% reinforcements, and 100 MPa squeeze pressure.Regarding tensile strength (UTS), the maximum value (285.23MPa) was achieved in the L13 experiment, while the minimum value (187.58 MPa) was observed in the L1 experiment. This variation in UTS can be attributed to the applied load, the strengthening effect of the reinforcements, and the grain size of SiC. 2024 E3S Web of Conferences

Mechanical Properties of FSW Joints Magnesium Alloy at Different Rotational Speeds
description: Magnesium (Mg) has become a focus in the transportation industry due to its potential in reducing fuel consumption and gas emissions while improving recyclability. Mg alloys are also known for their low neutron absorption, good resistant of carbon dioxide as well as thermal conductivity which makes them suitable for use in industrial equipment for nuclear energy. there has been an increasing interest in the research and development of Mg alloys. These are the lightest of all metallic structural materials and are approximately 33% lighter than aluminium (Al) and 75% lighter than ferrous (Fe) alloys and have excellent specific mechanical properties. In this work, FSW of AZ31B Alloy was examined at the various rotational speeds of 900 -1440 rpm, with fixed welding speed of 40mm/min and 2 tool tilt angle using an HSS tool. The mechanical properties were compared for the different rotational speeds. The quality of FSW joints is dependent on input value of heat and material flow rate, which are prejudiced by process parameters., higher rotation speeds may cause abnormal stirring, resulting in a tunnel defect at the weld nugget due to increased strain rate and turbulence. 2024 E3S Web of Conferences

description: In our increasingly interconnected world, national stability holds immense significance, impacting global economics, politics, and security. This study leverages machine learning to forecast stability scores, essential for understanding the intricate dynamics of country stability. By evaluating various regression models, our research aims to identify the most effective methods for predicting these scores, thus deepening our insight into the determinants of national stability. The field of machine learning has seen remarkable progress, with regression models ranging from conventional Linear Regression (LR) to more complex algorithms like Support Vector Regression (SVR), Random Forest (RF), and Gradient Boosting (GB). Each model has distinct strengths and weaknesses, necessitating a comparative analysis to determine the most suitable model for specific predictive tasks. Our methodology involves a comparative examination of models such as LR, Polynomial Regression (PR), Lasso, Ridge, Elastic Net (ENR), Decision Tree (DT), RF, GB, K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), and SVR. Performance metrics like Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), Mean Squared Error (MSE), and R-squared (R2) assess each model's predictive accuracy using a diverse dataset of country stability indicators. This study's comprehensive model comparison adds novelty to predictive analytics literature. Our findings reveal significant variations in the performance of different regression models, with certain models exhibiting exceptional predictive accuracy, as indicated by high R2 values and low error metrics. Notably, models such as LR, SVR, and Elastic Net demonstrate outstanding performance, suggesting their suitability for stability score prediction. 2024 IEEE.

Automated Single Responsibility Principle Enforcement: A Step Toward Reusable and Maintainable Code
subject: Code smells; Cyclometric complexity; Halstead volume; Interface analysis; Single responsibility principle
description: In this study, we delve into the sphere of automated code scrutiny, specifically concentrating on compliance with the single responsibility principle (SRP), a key principle in software architecture. The SRP proposes that a class should have a singular reason for modification, thereby enhancing code cohesion and facilitating its maintenance and reusability. The study presents a pioneering system that utilizes a holistic strategy to ascertain SRP compliance within code. This system rigorously inspects code interfaces, the interaction points among various software components. Through this process, we extract critical insights into the codes maintainability and reusability. An optimally designed interface can significantly improve code management and foster its reuse, leading to superior software design efficiency. Beyond interface inspection, our system also explores complexity metrics such as cyclomatic complexity and hassel volume. Cyclomatic complexity offers a numerical indicator of the count of linearly independent paths traversing a programs source code, serving as a measure of code complexity. Hassel volume is an additional metric that can quantify code complexity. Moreover, our system employs code smell detection methodologies to identify instances of high interdependence between classes, often a sign of SRP breaches. High interdependence, or tight coupling, complicates code modification and maintenance. The system integrates the conclusions from these varied analyses to determine SRP compliance. The outcomes of this investigation highlight a hopeful trajectory toward automated SRP detection. This could provide developers with tools that proactively foster the development of well-organized and maintainable code, thereby enhancing software design quality.

An Innovative Method for Brain Stroke Prediction based on Parallel RELM Model
subject: Brain Stroke Prediction; Extreme learning machine (ELM); Recursive Feature Elimination (RFE)
description: Strokes occur when blood supply to the brain is suddenly cut off or severely impaired. Stroke victims may experience cell death as a result of oxygen and food shortages. The effectiveness of various predictive data mining algorithms in illness prediction has been the subject of numerous studies. The three stages that make up this suggested method are feature selection, model training, and preprocessing. Missing value management, numeric value conversion, imbalanced dataset handling, and data scaling are all components of data preparation. The chi-square and RFE methods are utilized in feature selection. The former assesses feature correlation, while the latter recursively seeks for ever-smaller feature sets to choose features. The whole time the model was being trained, a Parallel RELM was used. This new method outperforms both ELM and RELM, achieving an average accuracy of 95.84%. 2024 IEEE.

Seismic Performance Assessment of Reinforced Concrete Frames: Insights from Pushover Analysis
subject: Ductility; Non-linear analysis; RC frames; Shear capacity
description: This paper offers a comprehensive exploration of the seismic response of Reinforced Concrete (RC) frames examined through pushover analysis. The frames analyzed are designed as per IS 13920 and IS 456 for different levels of earthquake intensities and different levels of axial loads. Nonlinear analysis techniques have gained prominence in assessing the response of RC frames, especially when subjected to extreme loading events or when accurate predictions of structural behavior are required beyond the linear elastic range. The study aims to delve into the structural behavior of RC frames under seismic influences, employing pushover analysis as the principal analytical tool. With a focus on assessing the effectiveness and reliability of pushover analysis, the research endeavors to elucidate the seismic performance of RC frames while considering their response to different seismic zones and axial loading scenarios. The methodology involves conducting a series of pushover analyses on RC frames using advanced structural analysis software. The results obtained are meticulously analyzed to discern the shear capacities and ultimate displacements of the frames, by investigating the displacement versus shear capacity relationship across varying seismic zones and axial loading scenarios. Through this comprehensive investigation, the paper aims to enhance our understanding of the seismic behavior of RC frames and will provide valuable insights for seismic design.

Improving Groundwater Forecasting Accuracy with a Hybrid ARIMA-XGBoost Approach.
subject: ARIMA-XGB; Decision Trees; Groundwater level prediction; LGBM; MAE; Random Forest; RMSE; Stacking and ensemble; XGB
description: In addressing the critical challenge of accurate groundwater level prediction, this study explores the comparative performance of various machine learning models. We implement a novel hybrid model combining ARIMA and Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGB) for the prediction of groundwater levels, and compare it against traditional models including ARIMA, XGBoost, LightGBM, Random Forest, and Decision Trees. Traditional approaches often rely on single models; however, our research seeks to delve into the intricacies of hybrid model architectures. Combining the strengths of ARIMA and XGB, we aim to build a highly accurate and efficient groundwater level prediction system. Comprehensive evaluations were conducted using metrics such as Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), The future scope of machine learning in water resource management includes integrating such models with real-time monitoring systems and expanding their applications to diverse environmental conditions and regions. 2024 IEEE.

Depth Wise Separable Convolutional Neural Network with Context Axial Reverse Attention Based Sentiment Analysis on Movie Reviews
subject: Bag-Of-Words and Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency; Bowerbird Optimization Algorithm; Depth Wise Separable Convolutional Neural Networks with Context Axial Reverse Attention Network; Sentiment Analysis
description: Sentiment Analysis (SA) in movie reviews involves using natural language processing techniques to determine the sentiment expressed in reviews. This analysis helps in understanding the overall audience sentiment towards a movie, categorizing reviews as positive, negative, or neutral. It's useful for filmmakers, marketers, and audiences. The existing methods does not provide sufficient accuracy, error rate and complexity was increased. To overcome the aforementioned problem, Depth Wise Separable Convolutional Neural Networks with Context Axial Reverse Attention Network (DWSCNN-CARAN) is proposed for accurately classifying SA in movie reviews. In this input image is taken from two datasets such as IMDB dataset and Polarity dataset. The pre-processing is done using six steps namely, Cleaning, Tokenization, Case Folding, Normalization, Stop Word Elimination, and Stemming for the purpose of removing noises. Following that feature extraction are done using Bag-Of-Words and Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (BOW-TF-IDF). After that classification are done using Depth Wise Separable Convolutional Neural Networks with Context Axial Reverse Attention Network (DWSCNN-CARAN)for classifying the AS in movie reviews. The efficiency of the proposed DWSCNN-CARAN-BOA is analyzed using a dataset and attains 99.94% accuracy, 98.76% recall and attains better results compared with the existing methods. In the future, this approach will use the adversarial instances it generated to conduct adversarial training and assess the potential improvement in classification performance. It also looks into the possibilities of creating adversarial examples at the word and sentence levels by combining structured knowledge from high-quality knowledge bases. 2024 IEEE.

subject: land use/land cover; pan-sharpening; random forest; remote sensing images; sub-forest optimization
description: The land use and land cover (LULC) play an essential role to investigate the impacts of environmental factors and socio-economic development in the Earth's surface. Extracting the hidden information from the remote sensing images in the observed earth environment is the challenging process. In this research, implemented a model that uses Landsat data to investigate the LULC changes. Utilized the Landsat 5,7 and 8 as inputs for the 1985 to 2019 by Google Earth Engine (GEE) is applied for the robust classification. This paper proposed a Sub-forest optimization based Random forest (SO-RF) classifier with faster diagnosis speed for LULC classification. Moreover, to increase the multispectral Landsat band's resolution from 30 m to 15 m, the pan-sharpening algorithm is utilized. In addition, analyzed the various image configurations grounded numerous spectral indices and other supplementary data such as land surface temperature (LST) and digital elevation model (DEM) on final classification accuracy. The proposed SO-RF produced higher accuracy (0.97 for kappa, 96.78% Overall accuracy (OA), 0.94 for f1-score) than Copernicus Global Land Cover Layers (CGLCL) map and state of art methods like K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Decision Tree (DT), and Multi-class Support Vector machine (MSVM). 2024 IEEE.
