Abstract

Determining the weights of criteria is a critical step in ranking alternatives characterized by multiple, often conflicting criteria which is a core challenge in Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM). This study introduces the SIWEC-R method, a novel two-stage approach that integrates the SIWEC and R methodology to achieve more accurate and reliable weighting of criteria. Alongside the SIWEC-R method, a new performance metric, the UTAC score, was introduced to capture ranking consistency and strength across various MCDM methods. To ensure a comprehensive evaluation, sensitivity analysis was extended to cover all possible subsets of alternatives, offering an unprecedented level of scrutiny. Comparative assessments across three diverse case studies demonstrated that SIWEC-R consistently outperforms the original SIWEC method, achieving higher Spearman rank correlation coefficients and demonstrating superior robustness under sensitivity analysis. These compelling results firmly establish SIWEC-R as a significant advancement in the field of criteria weighting, delivering enhanced decision-making reliability for complex and uncertain environments.

Abstract

Zinc-bas ed composite coatings developed from synthetic ceramics (Si3N4, SiC, and Al2O3) have recently been employed as reinforcement to enhance their resistance to deterioration. However, there is limited literature on the utilization of ceramic particles sourced from agro-industrial wastes in the formulation of these coatings. This study investigated the effect of the surface improvement process (SIP) using rice husk (RH) nanoparticles on the hardness and wear rate of A36 steel. The A36 steel, zinc bar, and RH nanoparticles were procured and characterized using Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS). Four cathode specimens were produced, including an as-received specimen of A36 steel and two anodes of zinc. Four steel specimens coated with Zn-10RH(t25), Zn-10RH(t30), Zn-15RH(t25), and Zn-15RH(t30), denoted as S1, S2, S3, and S4, respectively, were developed with concentrations of 10 or 15 g/L and deposition times of 25 or 30 minutes at a constant cell voltage of 0.5 V. The as-received substrate steel was used as the control specimen (CS). The hardness and wear rate (WR) properties of the deposited samples were examined using Vickers hardness (HV) and a Pin-on-disc tribometer, respectively. All coated specimens exhibited substantial improvements in hardness and wear rate properties compared to CS (Hardness = 85.82±0.45 HV and WR = 2.45±0.34 g/min). For the coated specimens, the hardness and WR values ranged from 188.50 to 288.37 HV, 260.34 to 284.38 MPa, and 0.01 to 0.02 g/min, respectively. The inclusion of the coatings significantly enhanced the mechanical properties of the deposited specimens.

Abstract

This study investigates the performance of soybean oil-based nano-lubricants with CuO, graphene, and CuO/graphene hybrids under MQL-assisted CNC milling of AISI 1045 steel. The research aims to evaluate the thermophysical, rheological, and tribological properties of various lubricant formulations, including pure soybean oil and soybean oil with individual or hybrid nanoparticle additives. Nanoparticles were characterized by SEM, XRD, and FTIR, and fluid samples were evaluated for density, viscosity, thermal conductivity, sedimentation stability, and rheological behavior. Machining performance was assessed through tool wear, surface roughness, cutting temperature, wear debris morphology, and chip color analysis. Results showed that adding graphene nanoparticles significantly improved machining performance, achieving a surface roughness of 1.033 µm, tool wear of 0.0493 mm, and a cutting temperature of 46.1 °C, outperforming both conventional and alternative nanofluid formulations. Among all formulations, the graphene-based nanofluid delivered the lowest cutting temperature, surface roughness, and flank wear under MQL. The CuO/graphene hybrid improved performance relative to the base fluids but did not surpass the graphene formulation, indicating limited synergistic benefits under the present soybean oil-based-MQL conditions.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the performance of vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs) with three different configurations, including Savonius, Darrieus, and a Savonius-Darrieus hybrid wind turbine, using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations. The methodology involves 3D geometry modeling, simulation parameter setup, meshing, and post-simulation analysis using SolidWorks 2022 software. The simulation results indicate that the Savonius turbine achieves the highest power coefficient (Cp) and torque coefficient (Ct) among the three designs, with a maximum Cp value of 0.5 at a Tip-Speed Ratio (TSR) of 0.4. Conversely, the hybrid turbine demonstrates lower efficiency, although it theoretically offers potential for improving performance at low wind speeds. Pressure and flow velocity distributions reveal that the Savonius turbine maintains the most stable pressure pattern compared to the other configurations. These findings highlight the potential of the Savonius turbine as a small-scale renewable energy solution, particularly in urban areas with low wind speeds. Further research is recommended to optimize hybrid turbine designs using machine learning approaches and empirical validation through field experiments to support the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly Goal 7, affordable and clean energy.

Abstract

The mobility and flexibility of a quadrotor make it a popular choice for monitoring missions in remote areas. However, remote environments introduce constraints due to limited charging and communication stations that must be considered, alongside the possibility of collision with the environment. To ensure the quadrotor task was completed, a decentralized chaos-bidding consensus for decentralized task allocation was proposed, accompanied by control, Lyapunov, and barrier functions. These functions were simplified using the backstepping method to ensure the quadrotor's safety during task execution. The proposed method was evaluated through numerical simulation in multiple situations. The results indicate a minimum of 3% reduction in task completion time compared to other methods. When the battery constraint was applied, the proposed method successfully directed the drone to return to base before battery depletion and reassigned the task to other available quadrotors, thereby reducing the overall completion time for the entire system. Furthermore, this framework demonstrates the potential to support long-duration missions where continuous operation is required without relying heavily on ground control. The decentralized nature of the system also increases scalability, allowing multiple quadrotors to cooperate efficiently under dynamic environmental conditions. These advantages highlight the relevance of the proposed control strategy for practical field deployment, particularly in inaccessible locations.

Abstract

Anti-UV films and composites play a critical role in protecting materials from ultraviolet-induced degradation, which can weaken polymers, reduce product lifespan, and compromise performance in sectors such as food packaging, outdoor coatings, and biomedical devices. The growing emphasis on sustainability and the need for environmentally friendly protective materials have further accelerated research on UV-shielding technologies that incorporate biopolymers, multifunctional additives, and renewable resources. This study presents a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of global research on anti-UV films and composites over the period 2014–2024. Data were retrieved from the Scopus database and analyzed using Bibliometrix (R package) and VOSviewer were employed to analyze publication patterns, map keyword networks, and visualize thematic evolution, as these tools enable robust quantitative and structural mapping of large bibliographic datasets. Three dominant thematic clusters were identified: (i) nanoparticle-based UV shielding using inorganic fillers such as ZnO and TiO₂, (ii) multifunctional films integrating UV protection with antibacterial and antioxidant properties, and (iii) biopolymer-based matrices emphasizing mechanical durability and environmental sustainability. These clusters highlight the convergence of performance, sustainability, and multifunctionality as key drivers shaping current research directions. Despite significant progress, the analysis reveals limited attention to scalability, industrial compatibility, and long-term performance evaluation. The findings underscore the need for future research to incorporate pilot-scale processing, life-cycle assessments, and interdisciplinary collaboration to bridge the gap between laboratory formulations and commercial implementation. Overall, this bibliometric study provides a consolidated understanding of the evolution and research landscape of anti-UV films and composites.

Abstract

Natural fiber-reinforced polymer composites often experience mechanical performance limitations due to weak interfacial bonds between hydrophilic fibers and hydrophobic matrices. This study experimentally examined the effect of alkali treatment and modification using Uncaria gambir extract (UGE) on the mechanical properties and interface morphology of polyester composites reinforced with areca nut husk fiber (ANHF). Four composite configurations were prepared with a constant fiber weight fraction of 40 wt.% after alkali treatment using 6% NaOH for 24 hours, while the remaining 2 wt.% UGE was selectively applied as a fiber surface treatment, matrix additive, or a combination of both. Tensile and flexural properties were evaluated in accordance with ASTM standards, while interface morphology was examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results showed that alkali-treated composites without UGE addition had the highest tensile strength, which was attributed to increased fiber surface roughness and mechanical interlocking mechanisms. Conversely, fiber surface modification using UGE significantly increased flexural strength, indicating better stress distribution under flexural loading due to increased interface continuity. However, the addition of UGE to the matrix caused a decrease in tensile strength, which was thought to be related to a reduction in matrix stiffness. SEM observations confirm the presence of distinct interface morphology differences according to the treatment applied. These findings indicate that UGE serves primarily as a bio-based interfacial modifier, enhancing flexural performance, while its effectiveness is strongly governed by the mechanical loading mode.
