Performance assessment of Laguerre–Gaussian OAM modes for high-capacity underwater optical wireless communication

Abstract In this paper, a four Laguerre–Gaussian modes ( LG 0 0 ${\mathit{LG}}_{0}^{0}$ , LG 18 0 ${\mathit{LG}}_{18}^{0}$ , LG 45 0 ${\mathit{LG}}_{45}^{0}$ , and LG 75 0 ${\mathit{LG}}_{75}^{0}$ ) based underwater optical wireless communication (UOWC) system for transporting 10...

Awareness and Perception of Artificial Intelligence in Diagnostic Imaging: A Cross‐Speciality Survey of Indian Medical Practitioners

INTRODUCTION: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the rapidly evolving areas of diagnostic imaging; however, the extent to which medical professionals are willing to apply these tools to routine care in India has not been thoroughly researched. This is a cross-sectional descri...

Spectral index and machine learning-based evaluation of coastal urban thermal dynamics using google earth engine

Abstract This present study introduces a cloud-based geospatial and machine learning framework for assessing coastal urban heat island (UHI) dynamics in Thoothukudi coastal region, Southern India, using 12 seasonal Landsat composites (2010–2025) processed through Google Earth Eng...

Nanomaterial-based remediation of industrial wastewater: trends, mechanisms, and challenges in heavy metal removal

Heavy metal ions are ubiquitous in water resources, toxic, and tend to bioaccumulate. Therefore, they represent a serious threat to the environment and to human health. The use of conventional treatment processes such as coagulation-flocculation, membrane separation, chemical pre...

Modeling the potential of green roofs and improved green roof systems for urban flood mitigation in Chandigarh, India

Rapid urbanization and increasing rainfall extremes have aggravated urban flooding, which calls for sustainable stormwater management strategies. Green roof systems (GRS) are acknowledged as effective nature-based solutions, yet their hydrological performance under monsoon-domina...

Optimization of surface finish in fused deposition modeled components using hybrid metaheuristic techniques and abrasive flow machining

Fused deposition Modelling (FDM) technique is extensively used in industrial applications. The main advantage of this technique is to provide flexibility and ease of operation, but at the same time, surface roughness is a significant drawback to FDM, caused by layer-by-layer depo...

Inflammation biomarkers in cancer: mechanistic drivers, diagnostic innovations, and future clinical horizons

Chronic inflammation is a universally acknowledged characteristic of cancer, playing the role of a vital catalyst in cancer initiation and progression, and a chief predictor of the success or failure of cancer therapies. About 20% of all cancer cases are associated with states of...

Sustainable production of polyhydroxyalkanoates from agricultural wastes within a circular economy framework

The current environmental crisis associated with fossil fuel-based plastics has driven the search for sustainable alternatives, among which polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) emerge as promising biodegradable biopolymers. The present article provides a comprehensive review of the recent...

Experimental and machine learning-guided optimization of tensile strength of concrete incorporating silica fume, waste foundry sand, and polypropylene fibers

Concrete has inherently low tensile strength, which restricts the performance and durability of a concrete structure. This study investigates the effect of Silica Fume (SF), Waste Foundry Sand (WFS), and Polypropylene Fiber (PPF) on Split Tensile Strength (TS) of M40 grade concre...
