Abstract

General Background: Natural fiber-reinforced polymer composites have attracted significant attention as lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and environmentally friendly materials for structural and industrial applications. Specific Background: Epoxy resin reinforced with woven cotton fabric offers a sustainable composite system, while nanosilica is widely used to modify matrix properties and improve mechanical performance. Knowledge Gap: However, the optimal nanosilica content for balancing tensile strength, compressive behavior, and toughness in cotton/epoxy composites remains unclear. Aims: This study investigated the mechanical properties of woven cotton fabric-reinforced epoxy composites containing 0.5, 1, and 5 wt.% nanosilica. Results: Composite laminates were fabricated by hand lay-up using six cotton layers and tested according to ASTM standards. The tensile results showed that 0.5 wt.% nanosilica provided the highest tensile strength, with a maximum increase of 21.26%. Compressive testing indicated that 1 wt.% nanosilica exhibited superior load-bearing capacity, while toughness analysis showed the highest value for 0.5 wt.% nanosilica at 28,753.17 J/m³. In contrast, 5 wt.% nanosilica resulted in lower performance, likely due to particle agglomeration and non-uniform dispersion. Novelty: This study demonstrates that the optimal nanosilica loading depends on the specific mechanical property evaluated rather than a single universal filler concentration. Implications: The findings support the design of cotton/epoxy nanocomposites for sustainable engineering applications requiring tailored tensile, compressive, and energy absorption properties. Highlights: • 0.5 wt.% nanosilica produced the highest tensile strength and toughness in the composite laminates.• 1 wt.% nanosilica provided the greatest compressive load-bearing capacity.• 5 wt.% nanosilica reduced performance due to agglomeration and non-uniform particle distribution.

Abstract

Rucah is a local term for fish caught by fishermen with low economic value. The use of several types of trash fish is effective and efficient in the mud crab fattening process to produce good quality and taste of crab meat. The research aims to identify and compare several types of trash fish used as natural feed for fattening mud crabs on the quality and taste of crab meat. The crabs tested came from fishermen's catches, weighing between 150 – 160 grams per head, which have been determined to be skinny crabs and must be fattened before being sold. The types of trash fish tested were: tilapia (Tilapia mossambica), keting (Ketengus ketengus), and mullet (Mugil cephalus). Test location in traditional pond plots in Sidoarjo district. The crabs tested were raised in closed plastic containers placed at the bottom of the pond, for 15 days with the same weight of feed being given. The results show that there is no significant difference in the quality and taste of crab meat. The taste of crab remains very prominent even though qualitatively the panelists think there are differences in natural taste, however preferences are subjective according to the tastes of each consumer. Trash fish has proven to be very effective in producing crab meat that is dense, white, soft, and has a very strong aroma.

Abstract

General Background: Seepage beneath hydraulic structure foundations poses significant risks of piping failure and structural instability. Specific Background: Installing vertical sheet piles alters flow paths and mitigates subsurface water pressure under variable upstream heads. Knowledge Gap: Precise comparative quantifications of seepage flow rates and exit gradients with and without sheet piles remain insufficiently detailed for varying head conditions. Aims: This study evaluates seepage discharge and exit gradients under hydraulic heads up to 10 meters using 2D finite element modeling. Results: Omitting sheet piles increases maximum seepage rates from 361.1x10-3 to 491.3x10-3 m3/sec/m and exit gradients from 0.41 to 1.21. Novelty: Quantitative modeling demonstrates that removing sheet piles elevates seepage discharge by 26.5% and exit gradient by 66.6%. Implications: Incorporating sheet piles is essential in foundation design to prevent subsurface erosion and ensure long-term structural safety. Keywords: Exit Gradient, Hydraulic Structures, SEEP/W, Seepage Analysis, Sheet Piles Key Findings Highlights Sheet pile installation decreases peak under-foundation seepage discharge by 26.5 percent at maximum head. Critical exit gradients rise by 66.6 percent when structural cutoff barriers are omitted. Steady-state finite element simulations confirm severe piping risks without foundation sheet piles.

Abstract

General Background Modern internal combustion engines demand high efficiency and operational durability under severe thermal and mechanical stresses. Specific Background Journal bearings frequently operate under severe loading, transitioning from hydrodynamic to mixed lubrication regimes. Knowledge Gap However, predicting frictional losses remains challenging due to complex interactions between elastic surface deformations, piezoviscosity, and shear thinning. Aims This study presents an integrated methodology combining experimental test-rig evaluations with multi-body hydroelastic simulations to evaluate journal bearing performance. Results Results indicate that while temperature reduces oil viscosity, high hydrodynamic pressures exceeding 200 MPa increase viscosity, whereas shear rates up to 2.2×10⁷ s⁻¹ cause noticeable shear thinning at high speeds. Additionally, initial edge contact stresses decrease rapidly during the running-in phase. Novelty A fully coupled thermo-elasto-hydrodynamic framework incorporating worn surface topographies is established. Implications These insights enable optimized bearing geometry designs and advanced lubricant formulations for high-efficiency engines. Key Findings Highlights Combined hydroelastic simulation and dynamic testing accurately predict journal bearing friction loss. Pressure-viscosity and shear thinning effects significantly influence high-load fluid film stability. Edge wear during running-in rapidly reduces peak contact stress without altering hydrodynamic torque.

Abstract

General Background Deep neural networks achieve remarkable success in computer vision but remain susceptible to overfitting and data scarcity. Specific Background Generative Adversarial Networks offer a framework to produce high-fidelity synthetic images through competitive zero-sum training between generator and discriminator sub-networks. Knowledge Gap However, the direct impact of generative augmentation on network generalization and adversarial robustness under noisy conditions requires rigorous empirical quantification. Aims This study evaluates how integrating generative synthetic samples into the training pipeline enhances neural network classification accuracy and resilience. Results Incorporating augmented images into CIFAR-10 training improved classification accuracy from 89.7% to 94.3%, while simultaneously increasing resilience against FGSM, PGD, and CW adversarial attacks. Novelty A unified evaluation architecture combining Wasserstein gradient penalty formulations with noisy data testing is established. Implications These findings demonstrate that generative synthetic data effectively mitigates data limitations and stabilizes deep learning deployment in unpredictable operational environments. Key Findings Highlights Synthetic data augmentation increases convolutional neural network accuracy on CIFAR-10 to 94.3%. Adversarial training enhances model resilience against FGSM, PGD, and CW attacks. Generative samples mitigate overfitting and restore classification accuracy under noisy data conditions.
