An LDOP approach for face identification under unconstrained scenarios
(Taylor & Francis, 2023-03-01)In unconstrained environments, it encounters a number of challenges when considering handcrafted features for face recognition, including changes in pose, illumination and facial expression and plastic surgery variations, ... -
Novel PA encapsulated PCL hybrid coating for corrosion inhibition of biodegradable Mg alloys: A triple triggered self-healing response for synergistic multiple protection
(Elsevier B.V., 2023-02-28)Surface coatings have been extensively used to control the degradation rate of Mg alloys for bioimplant applications. However, these coatings only act as passive barriers. In corrosive media, structural damage impairs their ... -
Integration of task-based exoskeleton with an assist-as-needed algorithm for patient-centered elbow rehabilitation
(MDPI, 2023-02-23)This research presents an Assist-as-Needed (AAN) Algorithm for controlling a bio-inspired exoskeleton, specifically designed to aid in elbow-rehabilitation exercises. The algorithm is based on a Force Sensitive Resistor ... -
Enhanced wickability in single- and three-columnar bi-particle size wicks using multiphase lattice Boltzmann method
(Elsevier, 2023-04-15)An enhanced wickability, i.e., permeability and capillary pumping capability, is crucial to two-phase thermal management and bio-medical systems, however, it is challenging to enhance them simultaneously. In this study, ... -
Contact-impact events with friction in multibody dynamics: Back to basics
(Elsevier, 2023-06-01)Multibody dynamics deals with the study of mechanical systems composed of multiple bodies, whose motion interactions are governed by the presence of kinematic constraints and by the application of external forces. Frictional ... -
Is Facial Recognition Biased at Near-Infrared Spectrum as Well?
(IEEE, 2022-11-15)Published academic research and media articles suggest face recognition is biased across demographics. Specifically, unequal performance is obtained for women, dark-skinned people, and older adults. However, these published ... -
A numerical analysis on taper tube hydroforging
(ASME, 2022-10-30)Typically, in tube forming, the end cross section is either expanded or reduced, or the tube is bent around a solid mandrel to achieve the desired shape. To reduce the friction generated between the tube and the physical ... -
Investigation of tube sheet joining through hydroforging process
(ASME, 2022-10-30)Tube-to-sheet joint expansion has been successfully used in HVAC industry for many years to avail better heat exchange between tube and fins (sheet). Because this system transports fluids under pressure, joining tube and ... -
Forecasting bike sharing demand using Quantum Bayesian Network
(Elsevier Ltd., 2023-07-01)In recent years, bike-sharing systems (BSS) are being widely established in urban cities to provide a sustainable mode of transport, by fulfilling the mobility requirements of public residents. The application of BSS in ... -
