The most commonly discussed topic at the present time is the fluid flow in a channel having a porous area, as it is of practical importance for petroleum extraction, frequently isolated irrigation, coolant circulation, biofluid transportation in living organisms, and industrial cleaning systems. An investigation of heat transfer characteristics of unsteady magnetohydrodynamics oscillatory two-immiscible fluid flow of Casson fluid (CF) and ferrofluid (FF) in a long-infinite horizontal composite channel is performed analytically. The channel is divided into two regions. Region I is occupied by a porous region with CF, while Region II is a clear region filled with FF. The mathematical system of coupled partial differential equations is solved analytically considering the two-term periodic and nonperiodic functions. The influences of physical parameters such as CF parameter, porosity parameter, nanoparticles volume fraction, Hartmann number, periodic frequency parameter, oscillations amplitude, and pressure on momentum as well as heat transfer are presented through graphical illustrations (two-dimensional along with three-dimensional) and in tabular form using the MATHEMATICA program. Four different shaped nano-size ferroparticles are used in this study. The investigation of four different nanosized ferroparticles exhibits that the momentum transfer is higher when brick-shaped nanosized ferroparticles are added to the base fluid, water. It is also observed that thermal performance enhances in the case of brick-shaped nanosized ferroparticles compared to the blade, cylinder, and platelet-shaped nanosized ferroparticles. It is observed that the dispersion of brick-shaped nanosized ferroparticles is recommended in base fluid water for greater thermal performance through a horizontal channel. 相似文献
Composites play important role in dental filling by controlling shrinkage along with correction in teeth's shape and position. Rehabilitation of severely worn dentition can be achieved using mechanically strong composites. This study aims to synthesize zirconia-based composites to be used as dental fillers. Effect of microwave powers (100–900?W) along with Fe3O4 doping are studied on the structural, mechanical and magnetic properties of stabilized zirconia. SEM and TEM reveal formation of spherical nanoparticles with diameter of ~30?nm. XRD results shows phase pure tetragonal zirconia (t-ZrO2) at microwave power of 500?W without any post heat treatment. Crystallite size calculated from XRD data (~23?nm) matches well with the previously reported value for stabilization of t-ZrO2. Microwave energy dissipation results in stresses causing volume shrinkage leading to monoclinic to tetragonal phase transformation with higher X-ray density and hardness of ~1347HV. VSM results show ferromagnetic response with low coercivity (600Oe) value and saturation magnetization (~2emu/g). It is worth mentioning here that this is one of its kind study reporting synthesis of room temperature stabilized Fe3O4 doped zirconia composites at microwave power of 500?W. Antibacterial studies reveal inhibition zone of ~32?mm against bacillus bacteria suggesting their potential use as dental filler. 相似文献
The present work has been carried out with the aim to synthesize tin oxide decorated reduce graphene oxide nanocomposite (SnO2/RGO-Nc) via in-situ synthesis process and the influence of RGO loading on structural, optical, thermal and dielectric properties of SnO2 has been discussed. The XRD, FESEM coupled with EDX elemental mapping, TEM, FTIR, Raman and XPS results reveal that the SnO2 nanoparticles have been successfully incorporated onto the RGO sheets. The reduction in the energy gap of the composite sample as compared to SnO2 measured from the Tauc’s relation can be attributed to strong coupling between RGO and SnO2 NPs. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) shows improved thermal stability of the SnO2/RGO-Nc. From the dielectric measurements, it is observed that the dielectric constant and dielectric loss decreases as frequency of applied field increases. AC conductivity of all samples increases as applied frequency increases which follows Jonscher’s power law. All composite samples show better conductivity as compared to SnO2. This is due to the formation of continuous conductive pathway between SnO2 and RGO sheets. Further high dielectric constant, low loss and high ac conductivity have been observed at optimum loading of RGO in SnO2/RGO2-Nc as compared to other composite samples which is due the percolation effects. The impedance analysis exhibits only one semicircle for SnO2 and SnO2/RGO composite which suggests that the involvement of grain boundaries dominated over the grain contribution. 相似文献
In this research work, we proposed a medical image analysis framework with two separate releases whether or not Synovial Sarcoma (SS) is the cell structure for cancer. Within this framework the histopathology images are decomposed into a third-level sub-band using a two-dimensional Discrete Wavelet Transform. Subsequently, the structure features (SFs) such as Principal Components Analysis (PCA), Independent Components Analysis (ICA) and Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) were extracted from this sub-band image representation with the distribution of wavelet coefficients. These SFs are used as inputs of the Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier. Also, classification of PCA + SVM, ICA + SVM, and LDA + SVM with Radial Basis Function (RBF) kernel the efficiency of the process is differentiated and compared with the best classification results. Furthermore, data collected on the internet from various histopathological centres via the Internet of Things (IoT) are stored and shared on blockchain technology across a wide range of image distribution across secure data IoT devices. Due to this, the minimum and maximum values of the kernel parameter are adjusted and updated periodically for the purpose of industrial application in device calibration. Consequently, these resolutions are presented with an excellent example of a technique for training and testing the cancer cell structure prognosis methods in spindle shaped cell (SSC) histopathological imaging databases. The performance characteristics of cross-validation are evaluated with the help of the receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve, and significant differences in classification performance between the techniques are analyzed. The combination of LDA + SVM technique has been proven to be essential for intelligent SS cancer detection in the future, and it offers excellent classification accuracy, sensitivity, specificity. 相似文献
Conductive polymeric blends (CPBs) of polystyrene and polyaniline (PS/PANI) were prepared by solution casting method in various compositions. Film thickness of CPBs was achieved?~?250 micron. PS/PANI blend films were analyzed for electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding characteristics in microwave and near-infrared (NIR) regions. PS/PANI blends showed remarkable features. Most mobile telecommunications use GHz frequency range and shielding effectiveness was observed in 9 GHz to 18 GHz. In 9 GHz to 18 GHz frequency range, 45 dB shielding effectiveness was measured. CPBs were also analyzed in the NIR region and showed transmittance of <1%. Microwaves and NIR radiation are the most abundant in the environment and cause damage to human health. Both types of radiation causes serious damage to electronic devices as well.
Classification is one of the most important tasks in machine learning with a huge number of real-life applications. In many practical classification problems, the available information for making object classification is partial or incomplete because some attribute values can be missing due to various reasons. These missing values can significantly affect the efficacy of the classification model. So it is crucial to develop effective techniques to impute these missing values. A number of methods have been introduced for solving classification problem with missing values. However they have various problems. So, we introduce an effective method for imputing missing values using the correlation among the attributes. Other methods which consider correlation for imputing missing values works better either for categorical or numeric data, or designed for a particular application only. Moreover they will not work if all the records have at least one missing attribute. Our method, Model based Missing value Imputation using Correlation (MMIC), can effectively impute both categorical and numeric data. It uses an effective model based technique for filling the missing values attribute wise and reusing then effectively using the model. Extensive performance analyzes show that our proposed approach achieves high performance in imputing missing values and thus increases the efficacy of the classifier. The experimental results also show that our method outperforms various existing methods for handling missing data in classification. 相似文献
