Audio-Based Drone Detection and Identification Using Deep Learning Techniques with Dataset Enhancement through Generative Adversarial Networks
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
Drones are becoming increasingly popular not only for recreational purposes but in day-to-day applications in engineering, medicine, logistics, security and others. In addition to their useful applications, an alarming ...
Geometrical investigation of piezoelectric patches for broadband energy harvesting in non-deterministic composite plates
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
Mechanical energy is the most ubiquitous form of energy that can be harvested and converted into useful electrical power. For this reason, the piezoelectric energy harvesters (PEHs), with their inherent electromechanical ...
Overview of the CLEF-2021 CheckThat! Lab Task 1 on check-worthiness estimation in tweets and political debates
(
CEUR-WS
, 2021 , Conference Paper)
We present an overview of Task 1 of the fourth edition of the CheckThat! Lab, part of the 2021 Conference and Labs of the Evaluation Forum (CLEF). The task asks to predict which posts in a Twitter stream are worth ...
Modeling and optimization of poultry house passive cooling strategies in semiarid climates
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Meeting hygrothermal and air quality requirements in livestock dwellings is crucial for upholding production quality standards. However, ventilation and air-conditioning in such enclosures is very energy-intensive, especially ...
Energy savings resulting from using a near-surface earth-to-air heat exchanger for precooling in hot desert climates
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
Given the substantial energy use for space cooling in buildings, integrating energy-efficient and sustainable cooling systems into buildings has become increasingly more important. Even though the cooling potential of a ...
Preparation and properties of electrodeposited Ni-B-V2O5 composite coatings
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Coatings of Ni-B have gained significant importance in various industries owing to their major role in improving mechanical properties including hardness, conductivity, and wear resistance. Despite all these characteristic ...
Enhancing the UV/heat stability of LLDPE irrigation pipes via different stabilizer formulations
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc
, 2021 , Article)
Herein different stabilizer formulations of linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) against UV- and heat-initiated degradation are described. The project aims at outdoor applications, such as irrigation piping and profiles, ...
Thermo-mechanical buckling analysis of FG-GNPs reinforced composites sandwich microplates using a trigonometric four-variable shear deformation theory
(
Elsevier

The current study is aimed to investigate the thermo-mechanical buckling responses of the sandwich microplate with Graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs)-reinforced Epoxy core fully bonded to single-walled carbon nanotubes ...
A prospective concept on the fabrication of blend pes/peg/dmf/nmp mixed matrix membranes with functionalised carbon nanotubes for co2/n2 separation
(
MDPI AG
, 2021 , Article Review)
With an ever-increasing global population, the combustion of fossil fuels has risen immensely to meet the demand for electricity, resulting in significant increase in carbon dioxide (CO2 ) emissions. In recent years, CO2 ...
Augmented reality flavor: cross-modal mapping across gustation, olfaction, and vision
(
Springer
, 2021 , Article)
Gustatory display research is still in its infancy despite being one of the essential everyday senses that human practice while eating and drinking. Indeed, the most important and frequent tasks that our brain deals with ...
