This research explores the application of NiTiNOL-steel (NiTi–ST) wire ropes as nonlinear damping devices for mitigating vibrations in composite stiffened panels. A dynamic model is formulated by coupling the composite panel with a modified Bouc–Wen hysteresis representation and employing the first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT), based on Hamilton’s principle. Using the Galerkin truncation method (GTM), the model is converted into a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. The dynamic response to axial harmonic excitations is analyzed, emphasizing the vibration reduction provided by the embedded NiTi–ST ropes. Finite element analysis (FEA) validates the model by comparing natural frequencies and force responses with and without ropes. A newly developed experimental apparatus demonstrates that NiTi–ST cables provide outstanding vibration damping while barely affecting the system’s inherent frequency. The N3a configuration of NiTi–ST ropes demonstrates optimal vibration reduction, influenced by excitation frequency, amplitude, length-to-width ratio, and composite layering. Full article

Inventory counting of logistics boxes in complex scenarios has always been a core task in intelligent logistics systems. To solve the problems of a high leakage rate and low computational efficiency caused by stacking, occlusion, and rotation in box detection against complex backgrounds in logistics environments, this paper proposes a lightweight, rotated object detection model: REW-YOLO (RepViT-Block YOLO with Efficient Local Attention and Wise-IoU). By integrating structural reparameterization techniques, the C2f-RVB module was designed to reduce computational redundancy in traditional convolutions. Additionally, the ELA-HSFPN multi-scale feature fusion network was constructed to enhance edge feature extraction for occluded boxes and improve detection accuracy in densely packed scenarios. A rotation angle regression branch and a dynamic Wise-IoU loss function were introduced to further refine localization and balance sample quality. Experimental results on the self-constructed BOX-data dataset demonstrate that the REW-YOLO achieves 90.2% mAP50 and 130.8 FPS, with a parameter count of only 2.18 M, surpassing YOLOv8n by 2.9% in accuracy while reducing computational cost by 28%. These improvements provide an efficient solution for automated box detection in logistics applications. Full article

This study proposes a coupled constitutive model that captures the anisotropic failure characteristics and damage evolution of nickel-based single-crystal (SX) superalloys under various temperature conditions. The model accounts for both creep rate and material damage evolution, enabling accurate prediction of the typical three-stage creep curves, macroscopic fracture morphologies, and microstructural features under uniaxial tensile creep for specimens with different crystallographic orientations. Creep behavior of SX superalloys was simulated under multiple orientations and various temperature-stress conditions using the proposed model. The resulting creep curves aligned well with experimental observations, thereby validating the model’s feasibility and accuracy. Furthermore, a finite element model of cylindrical specimens was established, and simulations of the macroscopic fracture morphology were performed using a user-defined material subroutine. By integrating the rafting theory governed by interfacial energy density, the model successfully predicts the rafting morphology of the microstructure at the fracture surface for different crystallographic orientations. The proposed model maintains low programming complexity and computational cost while effectively predicting the creep life and deformation behavior of anisotropic materials. The model accurately captures the three-stage creep deformation behavior of SX specimens and provides reliable predictions of stress fields and microstructural changes at critical cross-sections. The model demonstrates high accuracy in life prediction, with all predicted results falling within a ±1.5× error band and an average error of 14.6%. Full article

This paper presents a novel four-dimensional autonomous conservative model characterized by an infinite set of equilibrium points and an unusual algebraic structure in which all eigenvalues of the Jacobian matrix are zero. The linearization of the proposed model implies that classical stability analysis is inadequate, as only the center manifolds are obtained. Consequently, the stability of the system is investigated through both analytical and numerical methods using Lyapunov functions and numerical simulations. The proposed model exhibits rich dynamics, including hyperchaotic behavior, which is characterized using the Lyapunov exponents, bifurcation diagrams, sensitivity analysis, attractor projections, and Poincaré map. Moreover, in this paper, we explore the model with fractional-order derivatives, demonstrating that the fractional dynamics fundamentally change the geometrical structure of the attractors and significantly change the system stability. The Grünwald–Letnikov formulation is used for modeling, while numerical integration is performed using the Caputo operator to capture the memory effects inherent in fractional models. Finally, an analog electronic circuit realization is provided to experimentally validate the theoretical and numerical findings. Full article

The efficient thermal management of cutting tools is critical for ensuring dimensional accuracy, surface integrity, and tool longevity, especially in the high-speed dry machining process. However, conventional cooling methods often fall short in reaching the heat-intensive zones near the cutting inserts. This study proposes a novel internal cooling strategy that integrates triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) structures into the toolholder, aiming to enhance localized heat removal from the cutting region. The thermal-fluidic behaviors of four TPMS topologies (Gyroid, Diamond, I-WP, and Fischer–Koch S) were systematically analyzed under varying coolant velocities using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Several key performance indicators, including the convective heat transfer coefficient, Nusselt number, friction factor, and thermal resistance, were evaluated. The Diamond and Gyroid structures exhibited the most favorable balance between heat transfer enhancement and pressure loss. The experimental validation confirmed the CFD prediction accuracy. The results establish a new design paradigm for integrating TPMS structures into toolholders, offering a promising solution for efficient, compact, and sustainable cooling in advanced cutting applications.

The electromechanical braking (EMB) system is an important component of intelligent vehicles and is also the core actuator for longitudinal dynamic control in autonomous driving motion control. Therefore, we propose a new mechanism layout form for EMB and a feedforward second-order linear active disturbance rejection controller based on clamping force. This solves the problem of excessive axial distance in traditional EMB and reduces the axial distance by 30%, while concentrating the PCB control board for the wheels on the EMB housing. This enables the ABS and ESP functions to be integrated into the EMB system, further enhancing the integration of line control and active safety functions. A feedforward second-order linear active disturbance rejection controller (LADRC) based on the clamping force of the brake caliper is proposed. Compared with the traditional clamping force control methods three-loop PID and adaptive fuzzy PID, it improves the response speed, steady-state error, and anti-interference ability. Moreover, the LADRC has more advantages in parameter adjustment. Simulation results show that the response speed is increased by 130 ms, the overshoot is reduced by 9.85%, and the anti-interference ability is increased by 41.2%. Finally, the feasibility of this control algorithm was verified through the EMB hardware-in-the-loop test bench. Full article

Traffic crashes represent a major challenge for road safety, public health, and mobility management in complex urban environments, particularly in metropolitan areas characterized by intense traffic flows, high population density, and strong commuter dynamics. The development of short-term traffic crash prediction models represents a fundamental line of analysis in road safety research within the scientific community. Among these efforts, macro-level modeling plays a key role by enabling the analysis of the spatiotemporal relationships between diverse factors at an aggregated zonal scale. However, in cities like Bogotá, predicting short-term traffic crashes remains challenging due to the complexity of these spatiotemporal dynamics, underscoring the need for models that more effectively integrate spatial and temporal data. This paper presents a strategy based on deep learning techniques to predict short-term spatiotemporal traffic crashes in Bogotá using 2019 data on socioeconomic, land use, mobility, weather, lighting, and crash records across TMAU and TAZ zones. The results showed that the strategy performed with a model called SpatioConvGru-Net with top performance at the TMAU level, achieving R2 = 0.983, MSE = 0.017, and MAPE = 5.5%. Its hybrid design captured spatiotemporal patterns better than CNN, LSTM, and others. Performance improved at the TAZ level using transfer learning. Full article

To clarify the potential failure modes of reinforced concrete (RC) beams under impact and understand their impact resistance safety, a comprehensive study was conducted by focusing on the failure mode discrimination and failure probability of RC beams under impact loads. This research utilized drop hammer impact tests, ABAQUS2022 software, and theoretical methods. The study examined three typical failure modes of RC beams under impact loads: flexural failure, flexural-shear failure, and shear failure. A discrimination criterion based on the flexural-shear capacity–effect curve was developed. Utilizing this criterion, along with the basic principles of structural reliability theory, the failure probability of RC beams under impact loads was calculated and analyzed using the Monte Carlo method. The results indicate that the criterion based on the flexural-shear capacity–effect curve can be used for discriminating failure modes of RC beams under impact loads. The impact velocity and stirrup ratio were identified as crucial factors that influenced the failure modes of RC beams under impact. Specifically, an increase in the stirrup spacing reduced the reliability of the RC beams under impact, while an increase in the stirrup ratio could significantly enhance their impact resistance. Furthermore, with a constant impact energy, an increase in beam span correlated with the improved reliability of RC beams under impact, where larger spans yielded a better impact resistance.

As industrialization and economic growth accelerate, PM_2.5 pollution has become a critical environmental concern. Predicting PM_2.5 concentration is challenging due to its nonlinear and complex temporal dynamics, limiting the accuracy and robustness of traditional machine learning models. To enhance prediction accuracy, this study focuses on Ma’anshan City, China and proposes a novel hybrid model (QMEWOA-QCAM-BiTCN-BiLSTM) based on an “optimization first, prediction later” approach. Feature selection using Pearson correlation and RFECV reduces model complexity, while the Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) optimizes model parameters. To address the local optima and premature convergence issues of WOA, we introduce a quantum-enhanced multi-strategy improved WOA (QMEWOA) for global optimization. A Quantum Causal Attention Mechanism (QCAM) is incorporated, leveraging Quantum State Mapping (QSM) for higher-order feature extraction. The experimental results show that our model achieves a MedAE of 1.997, MAE of 3.173, MAPE of 10.56%, and RMSE of 5.218, outperforming comparison models. Furthermore, generalization experiments confirm its superior performance across diverse datasets, demonstrating its robustness and effectiveness in PM_2.5 concentration prediction. Full article

In this paper, we develop a peridynamic computational framework to analyze thermomechanical interactions in fractured thin films subjected to ultrashort-pulsed laser excitation, employing nonlocal discrete material point discretization to eliminate mesh dependency artifacts. The generalized Cattaneo–Fourier thermal flux formulation uncovers contrasting dynamic responses: hyperbolic heat propagation (FT=0) generates intensified temperature localization and elevates transient crack-tip stress concentrations relative to classical Fourier diffusion (FT=1). A GSSSS (Generalized Single Step Single Solve) i-Integration temporal scheme achieves oscillation-free numerical solutions across picosecond-level laser–matter interactions, effectively resolving steep thermal fronts through adaptive stabilization. These findings underscore hyperbolic conduction’s essential influence on stress-mediated fracture evolution during ultrafast laser processing, providing critical guidelines for thermal management in micro-/nano-electromechanical systems.

The study aims to increase productivity in the cold room door manufacturing industry by addressing non-value-adding operations, identifying bottlenecks, and reducing processing time through digital twin (DT)-based simulation. The goal is to eliminate the need for supply chain outsourcing and increase overall efficiency. The research involves developing a DT of the existing production process for five distinct categories of cold room doors: flush door, single door, double door, face-mounted door, and sliding door. Simulation was used to uncover problems at multiple stations, encompassing curing, welding, and packing. Lean principles were used to identify the causes of inefficiency, and the process was improved using TRIZ principles. These changes produced a 42.90% improvement in productivity, a 20% dependence reduction on outsourcing and an increase of 10.5% added inventory to the shortage demand level. The approach presented is provided for a particular manufacturer of cold room doors, but the methods and techniques used are generally applicable to other manufacturing companies to support systematic innovation. Combining DT simulation, lean techniques and TRIZ principles, this study presents a strong approach to addressing the productivity challenges in manufacturing. The incorporation of these methods has brought considerable operational efficiency and has minimised dependency on external outsourcing. Full article

This study presents a numerical comparison between Direct numerical simulation (DNS) and the standard κ-ε turbulence model to evaluate natural convection in a two-dimensional, differentially heated, air-filled cavity over the Rayleigh number range 10³ to 10¹⁰. The objective is to assess the predictive capabilities of both methods across laminar and turbulent regimes, with a particular emphasis on the quantitative comparison of thermal characteristics under high Rayleigh number conditions. The Navier–Stokes and energy equations were solved using the finite element method with Boussinesq approximation, employing refined meshes near the hot and cold walls to resolve thermal and velocity boundary layers. The results indicate that for Ra ≤ 10⁶, the κ-ε model significantly underestimates temperature gradients, maximum velocities, and average Nusselt numbers, with errors up to 19.39%, due to isotropic assumptions and empirical formulation. DNS, in contrast, achieves global energy balance errors of less than 0.0018% across the entire range. As Ra increases, the κ-ε model predictions converge to DNS, with Nusselt number deviations dropping below 1.2% at Ra = 10¹⁰. Streamlines, temperature profiles, and velocity distributions confirm that DNS captures flow dynamics more accurately, particularly near the wall vortices. These findings validate DNS as a reference solution for high-Ra natural convection and establish benchmark data for assessing turbulence models in confined geometries Full article

To investigate the impermeability characteristics of composite geomembranes in rigid landfills, a three-dimensional finite element seepage analysis model, which incorporates a composite geomembrane, was established based on a case study of a rigid landfill project in Tongling. Utilizing the seepage mechanism of the composite geomembrane, the seepage distribution patterns of the hazardous waste leachate within the unit cell were computed under representative operating conditions. Different thickness amplification factor schemes for the equivalent treatment of the composite geomembrane were comparatively analyzed, considering both isotropic and anisotropic seepage conditions. The relationships between the seepage flow rate, velocity, and thickness amplification factor were determined. The results showed that the leachate experiences a rapid drop in the water head as it passes through the composite geomembrane, with a low seepage flow rate and velocity, highlighting the membrane’s significant impermeability effect. The finite element analysis indicated that thickness amplification of the composite geomembrane based on the flow equivalence is feasible to some degree, but treating the geomembrane as an anisotropic material during the equivalent process better approximates the actual conditions.

Wind turbine performance in cold regions is affected by icing which can lead to power reduction due to the aerodynamic degradation of the turbine blade. The development of airfoil shapes applied as blade sections contributes to improving the aerodynamic performance under a wide range of weather conditions. The present study considers inverse design coupled with numerical modelling to simulate the effects of varying airfoil thickness and maximum camber. The inverse design process was implemented in MATLAB R2023a, whereas the numerical models were constructed using ANSYS Fluent and FENSAP ICE 2023 R1. The inverse design process applied the modified Garabedian–McFadden (MGM) iterative technique. Shear velocities were calculated from the flow over an airfoil with slip conditions, and then this velocity distribution was modified according to the prevailing icing conditions to obtain the target velocities. A parameter was proposed to consider the airfoil thickness as well when calculating the target velocities. The airfoil generated was then exposed to various atmospheric conditions to check the improvement in the aerodynamic performance. The ice mass and lift-to-drag ratio were determined considering cloud characteristics under varying liquid water content (LWC) from mild to severe (0.1 g/m³ to 1 g/m³), median volume diameter (MVD) of 50 µm, and two ambient temperatures (−4 °C and −20 °C) that characterize freezing drizzle and in-cloud icing conditions. The ice mass on the blade section was not significantly impacted by modifying the shape after applying the process developed (i.e., <5%). However, the lift-to-drag ratio that describes the aerodynamic performance may even be doubled in the icing scenarios considered. Full article

To address thermal imbalance and ground temperature degradation in shallow geothermal heat pump (GSHP) systems in severely cold climates, this study analyzes a typical logistics building using an hourly dynamic load model. Multiyear simulations were conducted to investigate the coupling between building load variation and soil thermal response. The results indicate that with a cumulative heating load of 14.681 million kWh and cooling load of 6.3948 million kWh, annual heat extraction significantly exceeds heat rejection, causing ground temperature to decline by about 1 °C per year. Over five and ten years, the cumulative drops reached 2.65 °C and 4.71 °C, respectively, leading to a noticeable reduction in borehole heat exchanger performance and system COP. The study quantitatively evaluates ground temperature and heat exchange degradation, highlighting the key role of load imbalance. To mitigate long-term thermal deterioration, strategies such as load optimization, summer heat reinjection, and operational adjustments are proposed. The findings offer guidance for the design and sustainable operation of GSHP systems in cold regions. Full article

Finally, a reliability analysis is conducted on the failure of interface oxidation in thermal barrier coatings, which verifies the feasibility of the proposed method. Full article

In recent decades, the deployment of quadcopters has significantly expanded, particularly in outdoor applications such as parcel delivery. These missions require highly stable aerial platforms capable of maintaining balance under diverse environmental conditions, ensuring the safe operation of both the drone and its payload. This paper focuses on the stabilization of a quadcopter designed for outdoor use. A detailed dynamic model of a compact vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) drone forms the basis for a non-linear control strategy targeting stability during the critical takeoff phase. The control law is designed using a quasi-linear parameter-varying (quasi-LPV) model that captures the system’s non-linear dynamics. Lyapunov theory and linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) are employed to validate the stability and design the controller. Numerical simulations demonstrate the controller’s effectiveness, and a comparative study is conducted to benchmark its performance against a reference quadrotor model. Full article

Underground production and injection operations result in mechanical compaction and mineral chemical reactions that alter porosity and permeability. These changes impact the flow and, eventually, the long-term sustainability of reservoirs utilized for CO₂ sequestration and geothermal energy. Even though mechanical and chemical deformations in rocks take place at the pore scale, it is important to investigate their impact at the continuum scale. Rock deformation can be examined using intergranular pressure solution (IPS) models, primarily for uniaxial compaction. Because the reaction rate parameters are estimated using empirical methods and the assumption of constant mineral saturation indices, these models frequently overestimate the rates of compaction and strain by several orders of magnitude. This study presents a new THMC algorithm by combining thermo-mechanical computation with a fractal approach and hydrochemical computations using PHREEQC to evaluate the pressure solution. Thermal stress and strain under axisymmetric conditions are calculated analytically by combining a derived hollow circle mechanical structure with a thermal resistance model. Based on the pore scale, porosity and its impact on the overall excessive stress and strain rate in a domain are estimated by applying the fractal scaling law. Relevant datasets from CO₂ core flooding experiments are used to validate the proposed approach. The comparison is consistent with experimental findings, and the novel analytical method allows for faster inspection compared to numerical simulations. Full article
