Abstract: In the context of the three-phase hysteresis model (3PHL), a system of equations is established for a generalized thermoelastic medium under the influence of a magnetic field and an internal heat source. The problem is discussed using Eringen’s nonlocal elastic model. The exact expression of the physical quantity is obtained by normal mode analysis and illustrated graphically by
This paper investigates two different blind watermarking systems in the frequency domain with the development of a Pseudo Random Number Generator (PRNG), based on a fractional-order chaotic system, for watermark encryption. The methodology is based on converting the cover image to the YCbCr color domain and applying two different techniques of frequency transforms, Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT)
The precise identification of electrical model parameters of Li-Ion batteries is essential for efficient usage and better prediction of the battery performance. In this work, the model identification performance of two metaheuristic optimization algorithms is compared. The algorithms in comparison are the Marine Predator Algorithm (MPA) and the Partial Reinforcement Optimizer (PRO) to find the
The design of an efficient Pseudo Random Number Generator (PRNG) with good randomness properties is an important research topic because it is a core component in many applications. Based on an extensive study of most PRNGs in the past few decades, this paper categorizes six distinct design scenarios under two primary groups: non-chaotic and chaotic generators. The non-chaotic group comprises
Quantum Dots have shown a significant potential as a top candidate for infrared photodetection at higher temperatures. In the presented work, a theoretical model for estimating the coefficient of optical absorption of self-assembled truncated conical quantum dot is developed. This model considers both bound-to-continuum and bound-to-bound absorption mechanisms that increase the accuracy of the
Foresight projects are expected to provide realistic scenarios for different future scenarios, which provides a better information base for relevant strategies. However, these expectations often turn out to be at least difficult to fulfill due to the uncertainty of the external environment and cognitive biases. Therefore, the idea of assessing each stage of Foresight is gaining relevance, which is
Industrial dyes are considered one of the main causes of increased water pollution of water. Many businesses, such as steel and paper, are located along riverbanks because they require large amounts of water in their manufacturing processes, and their wastes, which contain acids, alkalis, dyes, and other chemicals, are dumped and poured into rivers as effluents. For example, chemical enterprises
The textile industry is considered a source of pollution because of the discharge of dye wastewater. The dye wastewater effluent has a significant impact on the aquatic environment. According to the World Bank, textile dyeing, and treatment contribute 17 to 20% of the pollution of water. This paper aims to prepare the bimetallic nano zero-valent iron-copper (Fe0-Cu), algae-activated carbon, and
Crystal violet is a basic dye that is widely used by various industries, such as textiles and paints. These industries discharge their effluents, contaminated with crystal violet, into water streams, and these effluents have an adverse effect on aquatic organisms, the environment, and human health. Crystal violet is a basic dye that is widely used by various industries, such as textiles and paints
Climate change is a major issue all over the world which has a great impact on global warming especially in countries with hot arid climates like Egypt. With rapid urbanization, streets in Greater Cairo and new cities are mostly car-oriented, which increases the Urban Heat Island(UHI) and, hence, affects the overall outdoor thermal comfort. Looking at the urban development in recent years, almost
