Abstract The proposed study focuses on the critical issue of corrosion, which leads to significant economic losses and safety risks worldwide. A key area of emphasis is the accuracy of corrosion detection methods. While recent studies have made progress, a common challenge is the low accuracy of existing detection models. These models often struggle to reliably identify corrosion tendencies, which are crucial for minimizing industrial risks and optimizing resource use. The proposed study introduces an innovative approach that significantly improves the accuracy of corrosion detection using a convolutional neural network (CNN), as well as two pretrained… More >

Abstract Identifying objects in real-time is a technology that is developing rapidly and has a huge potential for expansion in many technical fields. Currently, systems that use image processing to detect objects are based on the information from a single frame. A video camera positioned in the analyzed area captures the image, monitoring in detail the changes that occur between frames. The You Only Look Once (YOLO) algorithm is a model for detecting objects in images, that is currently known for the accuracy of the data obtained and the fast-working speed. This study proposes a comprehensive More >

Abstract Government authorities, academies, research institutes and industries are presently hindered by a lack of functional, healthy and standardized human platforms of cells, tissues, and organs, predominantly using costly live animal models and cells of low human relevance. Existing models of live animals or immortalized cell lines of either animal or human origin, often poorly reflect human physiology. Primary human cell cultures are difficult to procure in sufficient quantity and can be prone to much inter-batch variability, depending on the cell source. By contrast, self-renewable, genetically healthy and single-sourced human pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) exhibit enhanced… More >

Abstract The advent of Industry 5.0 marks a transformative era where Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs) seamlessly integrate physical processes with advanced digital technologies. However, as industries become increasingly interconnected and reliant on smart digital technologies, the intersection of physical and cyber domains introduces novel security considerations, endangering the entire industrial ecosystem. The transition towards a more cooperative setting, including humans and machines in Industry 5.0, together with the growing intricacy and interconnection of CPSs, presents distinct and diverse security and privacy challenges. In this regard, this study provides a comprehensive review of security and privacy concerns pertaining… More >

Abstract Bark extracts are sustainable sources of biopolymers and hold great promise for replacing fossil fuel-based polymers, for example, in wood-based composites. In addition to primary and secondary metabolites, tree bark also contains suberin, which plays a major role in protecting the tree from environmental conditions. Suberin is a natural aliphatic-aromatic cross-linked polyester present in the cell walls of both normal and damaged external tissues, the main component of which are long-chain aliphatic acids. Its main role as a plant ingredient is to protect against microbiological factors and water loss. One of the most important suberin More >

Abstract The Internet of Things (IoT) is growing rapidly and impacting almost every aspect of our lives, from wearables and healthcare to security, traffic management, and fleet management systems. This has generated massive volumes of data and security, and data privacy risks are increasing with the advancement of technology and network connections. Traditional access control solutions are inadequate for establishing access control in IoT systems to provide data protection owing to their vulnerability to single-point OF failure. Additionally, conventional privacy preservation methods have high latency costs and overhead for resource-constrained devices. Previous machine learning approaches were… More >

Abstract The advent of Industry 4.0 has compelled businesses to adopt digital approaches that combine software to enhance production efficiency. In this rapidly evolving market, software development is an ongoing process that must be tailored to meet the dynamic needs of enterprises. However, internal research and development can be prohibitively expensive, driving many enterprises to outsource software development and upgrades to external service providers. This paper presents a software upgrade outsourcing model for enterprises and service providers that accounts for the impact of market fluctuations on software adaptability. To mitigate the risk of adverse selection due… More >

Abstract The concept of the digital twin, also known colloquially as the DT, is a fundamental principle within Industry 4.0 framework. In recent years, the concept of digital siblings has generated considerable academic and practical interest. However, academia and industry have used a variety of interpretations, and the scientific literature lacks a unified and consistent definition of this term. The purpose of this study is to systematically examine the definitional landscape of the digital twin concept as outlined in scholarly literature, beginning with its origins in the aerospace domain and extending to its contemporary interpretations in More >
