A Review of Variable Compression Ratio Diesel Engines: Performance, Emissions, and Renewable Fuels
type: item
description: This paper reviews Variable Compression Ratio (VCR) technology in detail and critically evaluates its effects on the performance, combustion, and emission characteristics of diesel engines. The review systematically synthesises findings on the technology's compatibility with a variety of renewable fuels. The novelty of the present work lies in filling a critical research gap: integrating Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) as a dual fuel with diesel and hybrid nanoparticles in VCR engines. It is shown that the use of VCR technology improves thermal efficiency and reduces fuel consumption at low loads and reduces nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions at high loads, but the synergistic benefits of VCR technology with advanced fuel-nanoparticle combinations remain largely unexplored. The review points out future opportunities for improving diesel engine efficiency and emissions by utilizing LPG-diesel dual fuel operation and nanoparticle additives in VCR systems.

Effect of Indium Doping on the Structural and Surface Properties of (Nio) Nickel Oxide thin Films synthesized by Spray pyrolysis Method
type: item
description: In this study, thin films of pure and doped (Nio) nickel oxide doped with indium (3% and 5%) were deposited on glass substrates at a temperature of about 400 °C by spray pyrolysis method.. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) were used to study the structural properties of the samples. The results indicate that the growth of the films occurs in the preferred orientation of the (111) plane, and no peak suggesting the presence of indium was observed in the samples. Morphological analysis of the samples was performed using atomic force microscopy (AFM), which showed that surface roughness increases with higher doping levels. Additionally, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) analysis was conducted to further elucidate the structural and crystalline properties

Theoretical Model for the Uniform Machines Scheduling with release dates Under Multi-Criteria Optimization
type: item
description: The scheduling of parallel machines has attracted significant attention due to its wide utilization in the fields of manufacturing and data processing. This article presents an in-depth analysis of Uniform Parallel Machine Scheduling problems (UPMS), considering sequence-dependent job characteristics with release dates are imposed. It focuses on efficiently scheduling N jobs across M machines to achieve minimal overall performance penalties that integrates total flow time, tardiness, earliness, and late work. From a practical's and point it is important since most real manufacturing settings involve multiple machines within each workstation, however, efficient solution methods are still scarce, and the optimal scheduling algorithms currently available for multiprocessor systems are limited in their ability to address large scale problems. As a result, practitioners tend to adopt methods based on dominance properties to guide solution selection. This leads to key questions: Are current schedules sufficiently efficient? Do dominance properties effectively support optimal decision-making in multi-objective UPMS problems? How close are the solutions to optimality? This paper focuses on the NP-hard problem of scheduling n jobs on uniform parallel machines and proposes a dominance-based approach. The method is tested on a wide range of a large set of randomly generated instances.

Investigate the physical and mechanical properties of autoclaved aerated concrete reinforced with sisal fiber
type: item
description: Autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) is a lightweight environmentally friendly concrete made from cement, sand, lime, water, and aluminum powder. Having a crucial interest for the last decade, due to their low density and thermal properties. This study shows the effect of sisal Fiber on the density and compressive strength of AAC blocks. Therefore, three groups of samples were produced, with fiber contents of 0.1%, 0.2%, and 0.3% of total volume. The study's results show that AAC reinforced with sisal fibers had a density between 652 and 731 kg/m3. However, 0.2% represents the optimal fiber content for achieving the highest density. Furthermore, the compressive strength recorded 3.23, 4.09, and 4.17 Mpa for fiber contents of 0.1%, 0.2%, and 0.3%, respectively. Based on the results, it can be concluded that the AAC reinforced with sisal fiber significantly improved the density and compressive strength of AAC specimens. This type of AAC is suitable for partition and non- load-bearing wall applications.

A Stochastic Delayed Control Framework of Smart Battery Systems
type: item
description: The following paper offers a stochastic delayed control system in the case of smart battery systems that would be affected by actuation and uncertainty delays. Stochastic delayed differential equations are utilized to describe the dynamics of the battery to capture random variation and delayed control action. A state-of-charge (SOC) regulation and state-of-charge control effort is balanced by introducing a quadratic cost functional. Lyapunov and Lyapunov-Krasovskii techniques are used to draw up enough conditions under which the system exists, is unique, and mean-square stable. The effects of delay and stochastic disturbances on system performance are shown through numerical simulations and confirmed by the theoretical findings.

A Robust Residual-Based Image Classification Framework Using Strong Data Augmentation
type: item
description: Image classification is identified as a basic problem in the domain of computer vision as well as artificial intelligence. Such a problem plays a significant role in facilitating various applications in the real world. Although deep neural networks have proven to be effective in solving various image recognition problems, the efficiency of such models is normally limited by the occurrence of overfitting as well as the limited ability to generalize. Moreover, the models have limited optimal training. Thus, the purpose of this work is to develop a robust image classification system based on the idea of not using overly deep models. Instead, the work emphasizes the significance of using appropriate training techniques. Through experiments performed on the standard image classification dataset, the efficiency of the approach is proven by attaining the highest accuracy in the test dataset as 90.92%, surpassing the efficiency of other models.

Real-Time Driver Fatigue Monitoring System Using Embedded CNN on Accelerometer and Gyroscope Data.
type: item
description: Abstract Driver fatigue is one of the most serious factors of road accidents on roads all over the world, and real-time monitoring of driving fatigue is an imperative intervention needed to ensure traffic safety. This study describes a real-time driver's fatigue detecting system based on an embedded CNN that processes data from an accelerometer and gyroscope to perform high-accuracy classification of behaviors associated with driver fatigue. It gives a robust solution for real-time analysis with very low computational overhead by taking advantage of the capability of CNNs in extracting spatial features from raw sensor data. In this regard, the model architecture is optimized for embedded systems and hence can work compatibly in resource-constrained environments. Extensive experiments on publicly available datasets prove that the proposed system performs much better in terms of accuracy and reliability compared to traditional machine learning models. These results highlight the potential of embedded deep learning frameworks in scalable solutions to real-world problems that may help avoid the risks of driving in fatigue. The proposed model was compared with advanced architectures, including LSTM, Transformer, and Hybrid CNN-LSTM models. While the proposed CNN achieved superior efficiency (93.8% accuracy and 50ms inference time), Transformer models demonstrated better long-term dependency capture but required higher computational resources. This comparison highlights the trade-offs between efficiency and accuracy in real-time applications.

Experimental Study of Forced Convection Heat Transfer from a Horizontal Cylinder
type: item
description: this research, a very complete experimental study of forced convection heat transfer from a horizontal cylinder in cross-flow air is reported. The experimental setup included a horizontally mounted metallic cylinder heated internally by the controlled electric power input. A variable speed blower was used to provide forced air flow so that the air velocity could be adjusted very accurately. Surface and environmental temperatures of the cylinder were monitored by calibrated thermocouples as soon as steady-state was attained under every operating condition. The convective heat transfer coefficient was calculated using the measured temperature differences between the cylinder surface and ambient air and the information about the geometry of the cylinder. Surface temperature, temperature difference, and heat transfer coefficient were studied systematically to observe the influence of air velocity.

Experimental Study on the Performance of a Small Compression Engine Fueled by Rice Husk-Derived Producer in Iraq
type: item
description: The increasing global demand for sustainable and green energy sources has led to the exploration of alternative fuels, particularly in places that are abundant with agricultural byproducts. This study investigates the performance of syngas derived from rice husks as a potential fuel for small compression ignition engines, which are widely used in agricultural and rural areas within Iraq. This study aims to evaluate the performance, efficiency, and emissions of a modified CI engine running with syngas compared to diesel using rice husk, an agricultural waste product that is highly available but less utilized. The results of the experiments show that syngas increases brake thermal efficiency (BTE) up to 41.0% at full operational load, which is much higher than with diesel. In addition, the application of syngas resulted in a significant reduction of emissions, cutting CO and NOx emissions by 40% and up to 30%, respectively. However, the study also observes differences in brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) in syngas-powered operations, due mainly to syngas’s lower calorific value. These results highlight the promise of rice husk-based syngas to support cleaner air programs by reducing dependence on non-renewable fuels and mitigating emissions, which would strongly benefit environmental sustainability. Nonetheless, challenges such as higher fuel consumption and necessary engine modifications indicate directions for future improvements, particularly in gasifier designs and engine adaptations to balance both performance goals and industrial costs.

Image Steganography Based on Machine Learning Algorithms: A Survey
type: item
description: Abstract_ Image steganography is an important field in modern information security. It aims to securely transmit a secret message via a digital image and accurately retrieve it upon receipt, by embedding it in the cover image in a secure and imperceptible manner. Given the limited robustness and capacity of traditional spatial and transformation-based methods, recent research has turned to machine learning-based adaptive embedding strategies, including deep learning, to improve embedding capacity and resistance to steganalysis. In this paper, a survey of representative image steganography methods is presented, With a brief discussion of traditional spatial domain-based and transformation domain-based methods and an in-depth study of machine learning-based techniques such as support vector machines (SVMs), K-means clustering, convolutional neural networks (CNNs), and generative adversarial networks (GANs). The survey includes 40 papers published in peer-reviewed journals from 2017 to 2025 and analyzes the main advantages and disadvantages of the methods referred to for practical purposes. Furthermore, the survey identifies open challenges in imperceptibility, robustness, and security, and indicates potential future research directions for novel adaptive secure machine-learning-based image steganography schemes.

An Investigation into the performance of Concrete Incorporating Calcite-Cement with Partial Replacement of Cement-by-Cement Kiln Dust
type: item
description: This current work investigates the application of (CD) as an alternative to cement while making concrete at percentage 15%, 20%, and 25%, and the effect of combination of cement kiln dust (CKD) with calcite dust (CD) at percentage of 15% and various amounts of CKD 5%, 10%, and 15%. The findings indicate that excessive use of (CD), particularly at the 15% CD replacement, results in compressive strength reduced to a certain degree. Incorporation of (CKD) with (CD) improves later-age development of the concrete's strength. Furthermore with 25% CD, there is a reduction in absorption rate, indicating improved impermeability and durability. The inclusion of (CD) also enhances the corrosion Resilience of the concrete and makes it suitable for exposure in aggressive conditions. Conversely, it was discovered that at certain replacement level of CKD increases the vulnerability of the concrete to corrosion and at 15% CKD replacement the probability of corrosion become less underscores the need for careful optimization. Importantly, the incorporation of (CD) does not have a detrimental effect on the resilience of the concrete to the ingress of chloride ions. Additionally, the mixture of 15% CKD and 15% CD that offers a combined 30% cement replacement improves the resilience of the concrete against chloride ions. In this study, the capabilities of CD and CKD in the manufacture of concrete are highlighted, offering important insights on their individual and combined effects on mechanical characteristics and durability and hence promoting sustainability in the construction industry.

Copper Atmospheric Corrosion Mechanism: A Review
type: item
description: This study examines the impact of multiple factors on the atmospheric corrosion of copper, including the impacts of individual gases (SO₂, NOx, and O₃) and the synergistic interactions of mixed gases on copper's atmospheric corrosion. The synergistic effect of SO₂ and NO₂ on copper corrosion appears exclusively at elevated humidity levels of 90%. The combined action of SO₂ and O₃ is more potent than that of SO₂ and NO₂, potentially elucidating the elevated corrosion rate of copper in O₃-abundant rural settings. The impact of ammonium sulfate particles is notably highlighted, as the corrosion rate and mechanism of copper undergo major alterations at the critical relative humidity (CRH) of ammonium sulfate. Various copper corrosion products and their creation methods are also presented. A concise review of prevalent experimental and characterization approaches for investigating copper atmospheric corrosion is presented, and research trends in copper atmospheric corrosion are outlined.

EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF A NOVEL SOLAR DESALINATION SYSTEM
type: item
description: The shortage of potable water is the biggest problem of the world in this century because of the population growth and unsustainable water consumption rates. About half of the world’s population in 88 developing countries are affected by water crises which results in 80-90% of all diseases and 30% of all deaths. Since water shortage is directly related to poverty, low cost, especially solar, seawater desalination methods can help alleviate this trouble. In which present research, an experimental study was presented for a novel stepwise solar still accompanied by two units, a compound parabolic solar collector as a preheater and heat exchanger after condenser. A computer model has been developed, according to thermal energy balance equations to predict the transient performance of the system. The experimental in this study was achieved by constructing the test rig that verify the theoretical results by practically real field testing. Results achieved from this study demonstrate clearly the importance of rising the feed (saline water) temperature, increasing the condensation surface area and further heating of evaporation surface; Using new still absorber design, that increase the system productivity (91.3%) compared with the conventional solar still yield. This shows obviously that solar still output is affected largely by changing design parameters.

KERBEROS PROTOCOL: HISTORY, STEPS, AND SECURITY ANALYSIS
type: item
description: Kerberos is a widely used authentication protocol that provides secure access to network resources by authenticating users and services. This paper provides an overview of the Kerberos protocol, its history, and its steps. The Kerberos protocol was initially developed at MIT in the 1980s to solve the problem of authentication in distributed systems. It has since become a widely adopted protocol in enterprise networks and is implemented in many operating systems and applications. This paper outlines the steps involved in the Kerberos protocol, including authentication, authorization, and ticket granting. It also covers the security features of the protocol, including encryption, mutual authentication, and delegation. The research on Kerberos protocol has mainly focused on improving its security, scalability, and usability. Various researchers have proposed different enhancements to the Kerberos protocol to address its weaknesses, such as using stronger encryption algorithms, improving the key distribution process, and implementing additional security features. Furthermore, this paper discusses the most important attacks on the Kerberos protocol, such as the Golden Ticket attack, Password guessing attacks and Replay attacks. These attacks exploit vulnerabilities in the protocol to gain unauthorized access to network resources or impersonate users or services. The paper also presents the countermeasures and mitigations that can be employed to prevent these attacks and improve the overall security of the Kerberos protocol.
