Abstract In video surveillance, anomaly detection requires training machine learning models on spatio-temporal video sequences. However, sometimes the video-only data is not sufficient to accurately detect all the abnormal activities. Therefore, we propose a novel audio-visual spatiotemporal autoencoder specifically designed to detect anomalies for video surveillance by utilizing audio data along with video data. This paper presents a competitive approach to a multi-modal recurrent neural network for anomaly detection that combines separate spatial and temporal autoencoders to leverage both spatial and temporal features in audio-visual data. The proposed model is trained to produce low reconstruction error… More >

Abstract Cavity closed with a thin plate is a common structure in aircrafts, such as landing gear compartments and skin skeletons. The plate undergoing aerodynamic pressure on top is generally vibrating in the amplitude of thickness, which will induce an acoustic pressure in the cavity underneath and it will further affect the panel response. Considering both aerodynamic and acoustic pressure on the panel, there will be an interest to investigate the aero-acoustic-structure coupling mechanism and the aeroacoustoelastic response of the plate. Von Karman plate theory, piston theory and two-dimensional partial differential acoustic equation are employed for… More >

Abstract Acoustic and Electromagnetic Metamaterials/Metasurface have demonstrated various fascinating functionalities in wave manipulation. However, further employment of the manipulated wave for controlling the movement of discrete particle matter is not so widely investigated. Particle matter, also known as granular matter, granular material etc, is the most common form of matter in nature, and so the effective control of granular matter is closely related to engineering and daily life. The use of sound waves and electromagnetic waves to manipulate the granular matter has been widely used in printing, environmental protection, pharmaceuticals and many other fields. However, in… More >

Abstract Minimally invasive approaches for cardiac surgery in children have been lagging in comparison to the adult world. A wide range of the most common congenital heart defects in infants and children can be repaired successfully through a variety of non-sternotomy incisions. This has been shown to be associated with superior cosmetic results, shorter hospital stays, and rapid return to full activity compared to sternotomy. These approaches have been around for decades, but they have not been widely adopted for a variety of reasons. Right axillary thoracotomy is one of these approaches that we believe should More >

Abstract Wind energy provides a sustainable solution to the ever-increasing demand for energy. Micro-wind turbines offer a promising solution for low-wind speed, decentralized power generation in urban and remote areas. Earlier researchers have explored the design, development, and performance analysis of a micro-wind turbine system tailored for small-scale renewable energy generation. Researchers have investigated various aspects such as aerodynamic considerations, structural integrity, efficiency optimization to ensure reliable and cost-effective operation, blade design, generator selection, and control strategies to enhance the overall performance of the system. The objective of this paper is to provide a comprehensive design… More >

Abstract The underwater explosion could cause the serious damage to the naval ships. Investigating the underwater explosion problem is crucial for the development of marine military power. During the recent years, the underwater explosion dynamics in the homogeneous fluid field has been investigated by lots of researchers. However, there often exist sound speed thermoclines in the real ocean environment, which leads to a more complex fluid environment than the homogeneous fluid. The corresponding numerical calculations become more complicated. In order to fully understand the underwater explosion dynamics in the real ocean environment, we perform the numerical… More >

Abstract Canadian goldenrod (Solidago canadensis L.) is a rhizomatous plant of the Asteraceae family. In folk medicine, Solidago galenic remedies are used for diseases of the kidneys, urinary tract, liver, etc. Externally, goldenrod is used to treat purulent wounds, furunculosis, and gum abscesses as washes and compresses. The aims of this research were to study the yield and chemical composition of essential oil (EO), the anti-inflammatory activity of S. canadensis dry extracts based on its decoction and tincture. In EO (2.8 mL/kg) of S. canadensis were identified and quantified 34 compounds. The principal compounds of the EO from flowering tops… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract In this paper, we consider the numerical implementation of the 2D wave equation in isotropic-heterogeneous media. The stability analysis of the scheme using the von Neumann stability method has been studied. We conducted a study on modeling the propagation of acoustic waves in a heterogeneous medium and performed numerical simulations in various heterogeneous media at different time steps. Developed parallel code using Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) technology and tested on domains of various sizes. Performance analysis showed that our parallel approach showed significant speedup compared to sequential code on the Central Processing Unit (CPU). More >

Abstract Shock waves, characterized by abrupt changes in pressure, temperature, and density, play a significant role in various materials science processes involving fluids. These high-energy phenomena are utilized across multiple fields and applications to achieve unique material properties and facilitate advanced manufacturing techniques. Accurate simulations of these phenomena require numerical schemes that can represent shock waves without spurious oscillations and simultaneously capture acoustic waves for a wide range of wavelength scales. This work suggests a high-order discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method with a finite volume (FV) subcell limiting strategies to achieve better subcell resolution and lower numerical More >

Abstract Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a bio ceramic commonly utilized in bone tissue engineering due to its bioactive and osteoconductive properties. Crab shells are usually disregarded as waste material despite their significant CaCO content, and have not been widely utilized in the synthesis of HA. This study aims to synthesize and analyze HA derived from crab shells using the hydrothermal method with different durations of holding time. This study utilized precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) derived from crab shells. With a hydrothermal reactor set at 160°C and varying holding times of 14 (HA_14), 16 (HA_16), and 18 (HA_18)… More > Graphic Abstract
