Drinking water utilities are responsible for providing safe drinking water. As water directly impacts public health, water utilities follow stringent water treatment standards and processes. However to keep pace with the dynamic environment and tackle challenges such as water stress, water pollution, …

Objective:  To describe the discrimination and calibration of clinical prediction models, identify characteristics that contribute to better predictions and investigate predictors that are associated with unplanned hospital readmissions. Design:  Systematic review and meta-analysis. Data source: Medline, …

Routine immunization (RI) of children is the most effective and timely public health intervention for decreasing child mortality rates around the globe. Pakistan being a low-and-middle-income-country (LMIC) has one of the highest child mortality rates in the world occurring mainly due to vaccine-preventable …

In this work, the concept of an Artificial Intelligence-based (AI) Digital Twin (DT) of an aircraft system is introduced, with the goal to improve the corresponding MRO Operations. More specifically, the current study aims to obtaining knowledge on the optimal placement of sensors in an ideal Power Electronics …

This work focuses on humidity effects of turbofan engines, in order to identify the magnitude of the error in operational conditions and the implications on maintenance decision support. More specifically, this paper employs a set of different methods, including semi-empirical corrections used in engine …

The prediction of mechanical elastic response of laminated hybrid polymer composites with basic carbon nanostructure, that is carbon nanotubes and graphene, inclusions has gained importance in many advanced industries like aerospace and automotive. For this purpose, in the current work, a hierarchical, …

Calcium phosphate and struvite crystallization has been widely studied for phosphate removal and recovery from urban wastewater. In this study, calcium phosphate and struvite crystallization were carried out in a fluidized-bed reactor. Experimental values of the P concentration ranged from 117-1000 mg …

Marine debris is a growing global problem. Due to the wide ocean dynamics worldwide, predicting the transport of floating marine debris, such as plastic, is difficult. Although large-scale distribution patterns and accumulation zones are recognised and reproduced by numerical models, small-scale prediction …

Dynamic stall phenomena carry the risk of negative damping and instability in wind turbine blades. It is crucial to model these phenomena accurately to reduce inaccuracies in predicting design driving (fatigue and extreme) loads. Some of the inaccuracies in current dynamic stall models may be due to …
