Benefiting from biomimicry through 3D printing to enhance mechanical properties of polymeric structures: Simulation approach
(2023-09-08)Numerous biological structures have intricate compositional arrangements, well-organised pieces and stronger mechanical qualities than the materials that make them up. Therefore, this study focused on enhancing the mechanical ... -
The role of silicon as a nutrient/biostimulant in strawberries
(2022-09-23)• All plants grown in soil contain silicon (Si) in their tissues, with concentrations that vary from 0.1% to 10% of their dry weight. • Si is referred to as “quasi-essential” for the growth of higher plants due to its ... -
Contextual Multi-Armed Bandit based Beam Allocation in mmWave V2X Communication under Blockage
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2023-08-14)Due to its low latency and high data rates support, mmWave communication has been an important player for vehicular communication. However, this carries some disadvantages such as lower transmission distances and inability ... -

Multichannel Relay assisted NOMA-ALOHA with Reinforcement Learning based Random Access
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2023-08-14)We investigate multichannel relay assisted non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) in slotted ALOHA systems, where each user randomly accesses one of different channel slots and different transmit power for uplink transmissions ... -
Application of Risk Management Metrics for ochratoxin-A control in the coffee chain
(2023-12-31)Coffee is one of the most consumed beverages worldwide. Like other agricultural products, coffee is susceptible of colonization by mycotoxin-producing fungi and therefore, the presence of mycotoxins. These chemical hazards ... -
Teaching Students about Machine Learning Through a Gamified Approach
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019-01-17)The teaching of machine learning requires a range of tools and techniques to engage students and allow them to relate the processes involved to real world situations that they have previously experienced. One way to ... -
Analytical Modelling of Electromagnetic Bulging of Thin Metallic Tubes
(Springer Nature Link, 2021-02-19)The main objective of this paper is to develop an analytical method based on the energy balance equation to model the plastic deformation of thin metallic tubes in a high velocity forming process under axisymmetric conditions. ... -
