Stochastic thermoelastic wave dynamics in triple-porous biological tissue: a fractional-order nonlocal framework

Purpose This study aims to develop a stochastic bio-thermoelastic framework to investigate heat transport and thermoelastic wave propagation in multi-porous human skin under thermal loading, incorporating thermal memory, nonlocal interactions, hierarchical porosity and stochastic...

On the Rayleigh surface wave dynamics of porous piezo-thermoelectric smart material with spatio-temporal nonlocality and fractional higher-order three-phase-lag theory

This study examines Rayleigh-type surface wave propagation in a porous piezo-thermoelectric semi-infinite medium incorporating spatio–temporal nonlocality together with fractional higher-order three-phase-lag heat conduction. The governing equations are formulated within the fram...

A self-supervised approach to malware classification using hybrid VAE-Swin Transformer models

Malware detection and classification are critical in cybersecurity, where accurate identification of malware families enhances threat response and mitigation. Despite significant advances in malware image-based classification, challenges such as limited capture of local and globa...

Unlocking the potential of agro-industrial wastes as valorizable substrates for bacterial carotenoid production – A comprehensive review

The sustainable production of valorizable bacterial metabolites, such as carotenoids, using inexpensive substrates or waste materials, including agrowaste, faces several challenges. Research in this area needs to gain momentum to achieve green goals for a better tomorrow. Efficie...
