Design And Fea Of Composite Spur Gears: A Comparative Study Using Anfis, Xgboost, And Variational Quantum Regression, P. H. J. Venkatesh, Pothala Raghu, Mohd Rafeeq Ur Rahman, Saikumar Amda, T. S. Vamsi Krishna

Babylonian Journal of Mechanical Engineering

The parametric FEA dataset for an automotive involute spur-gear pair in three materials, train an ANFIS, XG Boost, and four-qubit Variational Quantum Regression (VQR) surrogate on that dataset, and compare their accuracy, uncertainty, and computational cost against the FEA ground truth. The study also ranks the three materials using an auditable multi-criteria decision procedure. The gear pair was sized using the Lewis equation, modelled in CATIA V5, and solved in ANSYS Workbench for SAE 8620 low-alloy steel, a Steel Matrix Composite (SMC), and a Low-Cost Iron Metal-Matrix Composite (Fe-MCS). The nominal duty is 350 N-m of wheel torque, derived from …

Finding A Voice In Uk Academic Psychiatry: Perceived Barriers And Facilitators To Engagement Among Indian International Medical Graduates, Madeleine Dale, Magdalini Moraitou, Deepika Sharma, Sridevi Sira Mahalingappa, Shweta Mittal, Vatsal Zapadia, Paraskevi Triantafyllopoulou, Samuel J. Tromans, Dinesh Bhugra, Rohit Shankar

Peninsula Medical School

BackgroundAcademic psychiatry in the UK is in a precarious situation with diminished academic to clinical posts. There has been a growing reduction in psychiatrists engaged in academia in the last 25 years. This has coincided with increased growth of International Medical Graduates (IMG) working in UK psychiatry. IMGs may face unique barriers to involvement in research, which may contribute to the academic gap. IMGs from India form the largest minoritised ethnic group among UK psychiatrists. This study explores interest in and perceived barriers and facilitators to academic engagement among IMGs of Indian origin working in psychiatry in the UK.MethodsA questionnaire …

Bidirectional Eeg Neurofeedback Of Sensorimotor Beta Oscillations Reveals Asymmetric Modulation And Strategy-Dependent Learning, Krithika Anil, Stephen Hall, Jennifer Freeman, Jonathan Marsden, Giorgio Ganis

Peninsula Medical School

EEG-based neurofeedback (ENF) may be utilised as an intervention for improvement of motor performance in Parkinson's movement impairment. This exploratory study aimed to determine the ability of healthy participants to bidirectionally modulate sensorimotor beta power using ENF in real time and examine learning trends. The protocol trained participants to increase and decrease the amplitude of their individual beta power over C3 using a double-blind sham-controlled and within-subjects design. Fifteen healthy participants completed the study (mean age = 38.9, SD = 14.9, age range = 20–66; nine female and six male). Thirteen participants successfully decreased beta activity, three participants successfully increased …

Two-Stage Routing Of Power And Ground Nets In An Integrated Circuit Using Reinforcement Learning And Integer Linear Programming, Prateek Pendyala

Defensive Publications Series

Custom routing of power and ground nets in an integrated circuit remains a manual task, in that a layout engineer must balance irregular blockages, electromigration (EM) limits, and voltage drop (IR drop) budgets at the same time.  To address these competing pressures, a two-stage routing method divides that work between a learned global search and an exact local refinement.  In a first stage of the method, a reinforcement learning (RL) agent explores a coarse routing grid and proposes a trial route together with an approximate wire width for each segment.  In a second stage of the method, an integer linear …

Crime From The Perspective Of The Holy Qur’An, Mustafa Mahdi Lafta Al-Sudani, Murtadha Fathi

Imam Ja'afar Al-Sadiq University Journal of Legal Studies

This research addresses the concept of crime in light of the Holy Quran, in terms of definition, types, punishments, causes, and prevention. It seeks to clarify the Quranic approach in addressing the criminal phenomenon as a social, moral, and legal phenomenon. The research relied on the inductive analytical method of relevant Quranic texts, with reference to books of interpretation and Islamic jurisprudence. The research concluded that the Holy Quran presented an integrated system to reduce crime based on doctrinal, moral, and legislative reform together.

Developing A Deep Learning-Based Artificial Intelligence System For Detecting Scientific Misinformation On Digital Platforms, Shorouq Al-Awawdeh, Ayah Al- Jafari

Middle East Journal of Communication Studies

Objectives: This study develops and evaluates an Arabic scientific misinformation detection system by fine-tuning AraBERT-base-v2. It examines the effects of early stopping and input sequence length on model performance, interprets selected linguistic characteristics associated with misleading content, and discusses the limitations of using machine-translated data.

Methodology: The study adopted a mixed-methods design, employing a systematic integration of quantitative and qualitative approaches, supported by an interpretive qualitative reading. The initial database consisted of 23,546 records, including 123 Arabic articles collected from the Akeed, Sheek, and Taqeen platforms, and 23,423 foreign-language records drawn from the GossipCop and PolitiFact collections within FakeNewsNet. After …

The Evolution Characteristics Of Gas Pressure Around Coal Seam Directional Long Extraction Boreholes With Nonlinear Extraction Negative Pressure, Zhang Qi, Jia Jinlong, Li Zhiguo, Zhang Longgang, Qin Zhengyuan, Zhang Weizhong, Li Jin

Journal of Sustainable Mining

Nonlinear pressure of coal seam gas in the directional borehole and surrounding areas affects extraction efficiency. A multi-field coupling numerical model, including gas desorption, diffusion, fracture seepage, and borehole extraction, is developed for the No. 3 coal seam of the GJH mine. Using the numerical simulation method of control variables, extraction was developed to investigate the nonlinear evolution of axial pressure gradients in directional long borehole and the spatiotemporal response characteristics of gas pressure. Results show that coal seam seepage pressure exhibits a nonlinear radial gradient attenuation around the borehole, evolving through rapid pressure change, stabilization, and slow adjustment. The …

Policy Discourse On A Three-Term Presidency Ahead Of The 2024 Elections: A Narrative Policy Framework Analysis, Ahmad Syukri, Ridho Al-Hamdi

Jurnal Politik

This study examines competing narratives surrounding the proposal to extend the presidential term limit to three terms in the period leading up to the 2024 General Election, using the Narrative Policy Framework (NPF). The study employed a qualitative case study design based on 136 news articles published by five national online media outlets between January 2022 and April 2024. The unit of analysis was direct quotations from policy actors that addressed the three-term presidential discourse. Data were analyzed using NVivo 12 Plus through deductive and inductive coding based on four NPF elements: setting, characters, plot, and the moral of the …

Trends, Challenges And Strategic Paths Towards Navigating Remote Library Services In The 4ir Era: The Nigerian Academic Library Perspective, Ayodele O. Akinola, Rasak Ojo Alliyu

Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)

This paper adopts a comprehensive and conceptual approach to review the emerging trends and aiding issues in provision of remote library services in Nigerian academic libraries. The COVID-19 pandemic and the mounting requirements of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) have changed the nature of digital library services, prompting the study. The current global trends are characterized by the progressive adoption of ICT, virtual support and innovative models of blended librarianship, while in Nigeria academic libraries show some level of adoption but are limited by critical ICT infrastructure and internet penetration, unreliable power supply and frequent funding problems. Additionally, organizational preparedness …
