From Sojourners to Settlers: A Qualitative Study of the Homes of Italian Migrants in Brisbane (Australia)
(
Juniper Publishing Group
, 2017 , Article)
This research study focuses on the architecture of the domestic dwellings built by a group of twenty first-generation migrants, natives of the Veneto region in Italy. This group migrated to Australia after WWII and built ...
Fractional-order controllers for stick-slip vibration mitigation in oil well drill-strings
(
SAGE
, 2021 , Article)
Drillstring–borehole interaction can produce severely damaging vibrations. An example is stick–slip vibration, which negatively affects drilling performance, tool integrity and completion time, and costs. Attempts to ...
An Anchor-Based Localization in Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks for Industrial Oil Pipeline Monitoring
(
IEEE Canada
, 2022 , Article)
Industries need solutions that can automatically monitor oil leakage from deployed underwater pipelines and to rapidly report any damage. The location prediction of mineral reservoirs like oil, gas, or metals in deep water ...
Explainable deep learning model for automatic mulberry leaf disease classification
(
Frontiers Media SA
, 2023 , Article)
Mulberry leaves feed Bombyx mori silkworms to generate silk thread. Diseases that affect mulberry leaves have reduced crop and silk yields in sericulture, which produces 90% of the world’s raw silk. Manual leaf disease ...
Application of Tools of Quality Function Deployment and Modified Balanced Scorecard for Optimal Allocation of Pavement Management Resources
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. (IEEE)
, 2020 , Article)
Pavement management is a set of tools used to evaluate and maintain pavements so that the pavements can be used safely and effectively over a certain period. Many traditional methods were and are still being used by entities ...
Optimal piezoelectric shunt dampers for non-deterministic substructure vibration control: estimation and parametric investigation
(
Nature Research
, 2021 , Article)
Piezoelectric (PZT) shunt damping is an effective method to dissipate energy from a vibrating structure; however, most of the applications focus on targeting specific modes for structures vibrating at low-frequency range, ...
Head Impact Severity Measures for Small Social Robots Thrown During Meltdown in Autism
(
springer link
, 2019 , Article)
Social robots have gained a lot of attention recently as they have been reported to be effective in supporting therapeutic services for children with autism. However, children with autism may exhibit a multitude of challenging ...
Modified zeolite/polysulfone mixed matrix membrane for enhanced CO2/CH4 separation
(
MDPI AG
, 2021 , Article)
In recent years, mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) have received worldwide attention for their potential to offer superior gas permeation and separation performance involving CO2 and CH4. However, fabricating defect-free MMMs ...
An experimental and numerical investigation of the effects of the diaphragm pressure ratio and its position on a heated shock tube performance
(
Wiley-Blackwell
, 2022 , Article)
The main purpose of this work was to investigate the performance of heated shock tube (ST) with different pressure ratios and diaphragm positions numerically and experimentally. The numerical model was developed to simulate ...
Rupture of an industrial gfrp composite mitered elbow pipe
(
MDPI AG
, 2021 , Article)
This paper examines the immature rupture of glass fiber reinforced plastic composite (GFRP) mitered elbow pipes. The GFRP composite mitered elbow pipe’s lifespan was twenty-five years; however, the pipes in question ...
