The use of cross-laminated timber (CLT) in constructing tall buildings has increased. So, it has become crucial to get a higher in-plane stiffness in CLT panels. One way of increasing the shear modulus, G, for CLT panels can be by alternating the layers to other angles than the traditional 0° and 90°. The diagonal compression test can be used to me...

Accurate knowledge of the dew point pressure for a gas condensate reservoir is necessary for optimizing mitigation operations during field development plan. This study explores the use of machine learning models in predicting the dew point pressure of gas condensate reservoirs. 535 experimental dew point pressure data-points with maximum temperatur...

Shale gas reservoirs contain small pore network that typically range from macro to nano meters and abundant gas storage as sorbed gas. In addition, the storage medium in such pore network varies and may be affected by physical parameters of shale matrix. This work presents the influence of gas sorption on pore radius and thickness at low and high p...

Risk of sudden collapse of any industrial plant increases if small magnitude incipient faults are not detected at an early stage. The paper proposes an optimized Monte Carlo deep dropout neural network (MC-DDNN) to identify incipient faults of sensors installed in wastewater treatment plants using the historical dataset of the plant . Such faults u...

AbstractOdor-chemicals from cooking source have cancer risk for family members and commercial kitchen workers. They are now enabling O3 formation and beginning to enter the one of the main pollutants in life. The diffusion of odor-chemicals is due to scarce adsorbing materials in rang hoods, resulting in urgency of design and development of low-cos...

Psidium friedrichsthalianum (O. Berg) Nied. (Cas) is a guava species from Myrtaceae family whose fruits are very attractive for their organoleptic properties, its economic and nutritional importance and its use as rootstocks. One of the main problems for in vitro propagation of Cas is contamination, and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), are the most us...
