Trajectory-Based Anycast Routing Protocol with MDRUs Assistance in Disaster Response Network See

Modern rescue operations rely on wireless communications for safety reporting, area monitoring, and rescue coordination. However, natural disasters severely damage ground infrastructure, creating significant challenges for emergency rescue and recovery efforts. This paper establishes a disaster response network...

Meso-scale modelling of FRP-to-concrete bond interfaces See

The bond behaviour between fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) and concrete plays a critical role in the performance of FRP-strengthened reinforced concrete (RC) structures. While extensive research has been conducted on debonding failures, existing studies predominantly treat concrete as homogeneous, neglectin...

Effects of concrete heterogeneity on FRP-concrete bond behaviour: Experimental and mesoscale numerical studies See

Extensive experimental and numerical studies have been conducted to understand the bond behaviour of FRP-concrete interfaces with the assumption of homogenous materials. This study is aimed at a better understanding of the effects of concrete heterogeneity on the FRP-concrete bond behaviour, ...

Performance Analysis of IRS-Assisted Multi-Cell Data and Energy Integrated Networks See

Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) can significantly enhance the performance of data and energy integrated networks (DEIN) by adjusting its amplitude and/or phase. However, there is a lack of comprehensive performance analysis model for realistic DEIN where multiple cells exist rather than...

Performance Analysis of Terahertz Communication Systems With RSMA and Hardware Impairments See

Terahertz (THz) communication has received much attention recently for its large bandwidth availability, high data-rate transmission and alleviating the spectrum shortage, and it can meet the requirements of Internet of Things with large system capacity and networking capability. In this paper,&#...

Does model type influence the effectiveness of combined action observation and motor imagery training for novices learning an Ankle Pick takedown? See

Introduction: Combined action observation and motor imagery (AOMI) training has been shown to facilitate motor skill performance, but limited research has explored its effectiveness on motor learning and factors that may moderate the effects of the intervention. This study examined the influ...

Rethinking Necessity: Evaluating the Role of Technology in Indigenous Communities See

Indigenous communities around the world are often identified as marginalised groups. Those living in remote areas are particularly seen as digitally disconnected with little or no access to information and communication technologies (ICT) and the digital universe. The United Nations p...

Enhancing Social Integration and Well-Being of International Students through Social Networking See

International students often face social isolation and cultural challenges when they move away from their home country and go abroad to pursue educational opportunities. Even though universities promote social integration, put effort into welcoming and integrating international students into&#x...
