No full textControlled cationic curing of epoxy composites with photochemically modified silanol encapsulated carbon black
No full textEpoxy resins have been an inspiration in adhesives and coatings, however, uneven photopolymerization kinetics result in wrinkled surface and filler segregation, causing aesthetic and mechanical damage. Hence a control over curing kinetics is required not only to dodge filler segregation but also to control composite surface smoothness. In this study, photochemical modification of carbon black with mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane, has resulted in unique silanol dendrites exterior on carbon black. Kinetic investigation confirmed that E-a for cationic polymerization of modified CB composite is three folds less in comparison to neat matrix, and two folds less in comparison to unmodified CB composite. Silanol dendrites have contributed on epoxy curing kinetics, through activated monomer mechanism. Samples have been characterized through XPS, FTIR, SEM, TGA, DSC, Raman, and EDX
Design of evolutionary computational intelligent solver for nonlinear corneal shape model by Mexican Hat and Gaussian wavelet neural networks
No full textIn this study, an integrated computational intelligence algorithm is implemented for the numerical treatment of the two-point boundary value problems that arise in the nonlinear corneal shape (NCS) model through the exploitation of wavelet neural networks including Mexican-Hat (MHWNNs) and Gaussian-wavelet (GWNNs)
through global genetic algorithms (GAs) then hybridization with local sequential quadratic programming (SQP) solvers, i.e. MHWNNsGAs, GWNNs-GAs, MHWNNs-GA-SQP, and GWNNs-GA-SQP respectively. The GWNNs and MHWNNs are applied to calculate the mean squared error of mathematical modeling of the proposed problem through objective functions while optimization of the fitness functions is initially conducted with an efficiency of global search GAs and then the efficacy of local search technique SQP for fine-tuning. A comparison of the proposed solutions of MHWNNs-GAs, GWNNsGAs, MHWNNs-GA-SQP, and GWNNs-GA-SQP solvers with a reference solution of Adam’s method shows that the proposed schemes have better accuracy, stability, efficiency consistency on an independent number of runs analyzed through complexity analysis and different statistical operators
Implementation of Image Processing Based Digital Dactylology Converser for Deaf-Mute Persons
No full textLanguage of signs is usually used by the deaf-mute persons in order to convey their message. But, it becomes very difficult for those who have no knowledge of the sign language. The aim of this research work is to resolve this problem using Digital Dactylology Converser (DOC) which is a device that converts a sign language into voice signal and text message. Primarily a hands gesture is recognised by computer vision program and based on that image a speech and text is played and displayed on the speaker and LCD respectively. Purpose of this device is to make conversation easy between dumb and the normal people around the world. In order to minimize their limitations and enable them to expand their boundaries, this is best suitable device. Experimental results verify the operational accuracy of the device for different users. The proposed device can work well and translates the letters, alphabets to text and soun

Design of stochastic computational Levenberg Marquardt backpropagation-based technique to investigate temperature distribution of longitudinal moving porous fin
No full textAbstract The improvement of thermal exchange is of utmost interest in a wide range of engineering areas. The current study focuses on thermal evaluation involving natural radiation and convection in a fractionally arranged moving longitudinal fin model placed under a magnetic field. We implement the Levenberg Marquardt backpropagation (LMB) algorithm for investigating an innovative use of stochastic numerical computation for analyzing the efficiency of the temperature distribution in a porous moving longitudinal fin. The datasets for LMB have been created using a shooting approach for dynamic systems with varying ranges of different parameters. The validation, testing, and training processes are used to simulate networks using the LMB approach for diverse scenarios of moving porous fin models. The reliability of results is assessed based on the regression measures, absolute error, error histograms, mean square error, and other metrics for fuller numerical modeling of the suggested LMB to investigate the thermal efficiency and effectiveness of porous moving fin
A Systemic Review of Lumpy Skin Disease Virus (LSDV) And its Emergence in Pakistan
No full textLumpy skin disease (LSD) is an infectious disease caused by the virus lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV). The family of LSDV is Poxiviridae and the genus Capripoxvirus (CaPV). The GTPV (goat pox virus) and SPPV (sheep pox virus) also belong to the same genus. LSDV causes disease in livestock animals except for dogs. LSDV causes vast economic losses in the country in the livestock industry and dairy industries. LSDV also affects the industries belonging to these industries like the leather industry. The sequence of 21 strains of LSDV were taken from NCBI database and their fasta files were retrieved. After that, phylogenetic analysis was performed using these sequences. This study provides an overall overview of the lumpy skin disease (LSD) its genome, causative agent, transmission, epidemic, molecular characterization, phylogenetic analysis, control, and treatment of the LSDV. We also give a short review of the emergence of LSD in Pakistan
