Digital Competencies for a FinTech-Driven Accounting Profession: A Systematic Literature Review See

Financial Technology (FinTech) is fundamentally reshaping the accounting profession, accelerating the shift from routine transactional activities to more strategic, data-driven functions. This transformation demands advanced digital competencies, yet the scholarly understanding of these skills remains fragmented. To...

Natural Frequency and Damping Characterisation of Aerospace Grade Composite Plates See

The natural frequencies and damping characterisation of a new aerospace grade composite material were investigated using a modified impulse method combined with the half power bandwidth method, which is applicable to the structures with a low damping. The composite material of interest ...

Impact of Ethanol on Electrostatic Behaviour of Fluorocarbon Pharmaceutical Propellants See

Background/Objectives: Triboelectrification in fluid systems, and specifically in hydrofluorocarbon (HFC)-based propellants, used in pressurised metered-dose inhalers (pMDIs) remains understudied despite its impact on aerosol behaviour and does delivery. This study investigates how ethanol concentration affects char...

Ethical Integration of AI in Healthcare Project Management: Islamic and Cultural Perspectives See

Artificial intelligence is reshaping healthcare project management in Saudi Arabia, yet most deployments lack culturally grounded ethics. This paper synthesises global AI-ethics guidance and Islamic bioethics, then proposes a maqāṣid-al-sharīʿah-aligned conceptual framework for ANN-based decision support. Ethical&#x...

The Path to Carbon Capture Technology Adoption—A System Dynamics Approach See

A system dynamics approach is described to explore the path of Carbon Capture diffusion. The proposed model, in principle, follows the Bass diffusion of innovation theory and includes all major influencing factors. The primary contribution of this paper is the modification of Bass’s...

Design and Analysis of a Photonic Crystal Fiber Sensor for Identifying the Terahertz Fingerprints of Water Pollutants See

Ensuring the purity of water sources is a paramount global challenge, necessitating the development of highly sensitive and rapid detection technologies. In this work, a novel Zeonex-based photonic crystal fiber (PCF) sensor is designed and numerically analyzed for the effective differentiation&#...

A Bionic Sensing Platform for Cell Separation: Simulation of a Dielectrophoretic Microfluidic Device That Leverages Dielectric Fingerprints See

Cancers are diseases described by the irregular spread of cells that have developed invasive features, enabling them to invade adjacent tissues. The specific diagnosis and effective management of oncological treatments depend on the timely detection of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in a...

A New Fuzzy Clustering Algorithm for Image Segmentation See

The fuzzy c-means (FCM) algorithm is widely used image segmentation but, has several limitations. It is sensitive to noise, demonstrates variable convergence rate depending on data distribution, and its reliance on Euclidean distance fails to account for intra-cluster variations, particularly in&...

Numerical Analysis of an Ultra-Sensitive Optical Fiber for Hemoglobin Concentration Detection See

Hemoglobin is a vital protein in the human body, and its deficiency leads to anemia. This condition reduces oxygen levels in red blood cells, which can be life-threatening. This paper presents the design of a novel optical fiber (OF) sensor for label-free detection of hemoglob...
