Ethanol fuelled homogenous charge compression ignition engine (HCCI) offers a better alternative to tackle the problems of achieving higher engine efficiency and lower emissions. Numerical simulations were carried out ...

Research in the utilization of hydrogen and syngas has significantly increased due to their cleanburning properties and the prospect of production from several renewable resources. Homogeneous charge compression ignition ...

This paper accentuates the inherently persistent tool wear issue and its consequences in variants of micro-electro discharge machining (μEDM). μEDM-drilling and μEDM-milling, two important variants of μEDM have been currently ...

Increase in the air pollution has driven the research towards the cleaner combustion technology for reciprocating engines. To tackle the challenge of the trade-off between the NOx and soot emissions from a conventional ...

The first-exit time process of an inverse Gaussian Lévy process is considered. The one-dimensional distribution functions of the process are obtained. They are not infinitely divisible and the tail probabilities decay ...

Supervised transfer learning algorithms utilize labeled data from auxiliary domains for learning in another domain where labeled data is scarce or absent. Given sufficient cross-domain corresponding instances, one can ...

Joints are Achilles heel of underground cables. Since there are multiple layers of insulation (XLPE, rubber), which encompass the cylindrical conductor, breakdown may occur at joints due to prolonged electrical and thermal ...

Since the Schwarzschild-de Sitter spacetime is static inside the cosmological event horizon, if the dark energy state parameter is sufficiently close to −1, apparently one could still expect an effectively static geometry, ...

Analyzing personality of a subject is an important aspect of automatic human behavior understanding. Generally, estimation of the OCEAN (Openness, Conscientiousness, Extroversion, Agreeableness, Neuroticism) traits are ...
