Impact of Arrhenius activation energy on magnetic nanofluid flow over a slendering stretchable sheet with nonlinear radiative heat transfer: A machine learning algorithm

Thermal systems in the contemporary world need effective cooling and heating methods. Heat transfer technology plays a vital role in various industries, including aerospace, electronic equipment, automobiles, and transportation. Considering the importance of effective cooling and heating processes, this framework explores the hydromagnetic stagnation point flow with binary chemical reactions, ohmic heating, Arrhenius activation energy, nonlinear thermal radiation, thermophoresis, and Brownian motion. At first, the flow equations are determined in a formal way as dimensional partial differential equations. Then, they are transformed into simpler, dimensionless ordinary differential equations using self-similar variables. The present study describes a novel approach to intelligent numerical computing, utilizing a Levenberg-Marquard algorithm-based MLP (Multi-Layer Perceptron) feed-forward back-propagation ANN (Artificial Neural Networks) implementation. The collection of data was conducted to facilitate the evaluation, validation, and instruction of the artificial neural network model. The utilization of appropriate self-similarity variables has facilitated the conversion of fluid transport equations into ordinary differential equations. The Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg (RKF) technique was used to solve these equations. The numerical results are presented visually for numerous constraints of the governing parameters. The increased values of the velocity ratio enhanced the fluid velocity. The nonlinear thermal radiation and temperature differential characteristics significantly raise the temperature of the fluid. Increasing the nonlinear radiation and magnetic field parameters improves the rate of heat transfer. The temperature of the fluid decreases as the size of stagnation increases. The skin friction coefficients decrease as the wall thickness and magnetic parameters increase.

Predictive modeling of copper (II) adsorption from aqueous solutions by sawdust: a comparative analysis of adaptive neuro-fuzzy interference system (ANFIS) and artificial neural network (ANN) approaches

Heavy metal ions are considered to be the most prevalent and toxic water contaminants. The objective of thois work was to investigate the effectiveness of employing the adsorption technique in a laboratory-size reactor to remove copper (II) ions from an aqueous medium. An adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) and a feed-forward artificial neural network (ANN) were used in this study. Four operational factors were chosen to examine their influence on the adsorption study: pH, contact duration, initial Cu (II) ions concentration, and adsorbent dosage. Using sawdust from wood, prediction models of copper (II) ions adsorption were optimized, created, and developed using the ANN and ANFIS models for tests. The result indicates that the determination coefficient for copper (II) metal ions in the training dataset was 0.987. Additionally, the ANFIS model’s R 2 value for both pollutants was 0.992. The findings demonstrate that the models presented a promising predictive approach that can be applied to successfully and accurately anticipate the simultaneous elimination of copper (II) and dye from the aqueous solution.

Topologically protected spin textures, such as magnetic skyrmions, have shown the potential for high-density data storage and energy-efficient computing applications owing to their particle-like behavior, small size, and low driving current requirements. Evaluating the writing and reading of the skyrmion’s magnetic and electrical characteristics is crucial to implementing these devices. In this paper, we present the magnetic heterostructure Hall bar device and study the anomalous Hall and topological Hall signals in these devices. Using different measurement techniques, we investigate the magnetic and electrical characteristics of the magnetic structure. We measure the skyrmion topological resistivity and the magnetic field at different temperatures. MFM imaging and micromagnetic simulations further explain the anomalous Hall and topological Hall resistivity characteristics at various magnetic fields and temperatures. The study is extended to propose a skyrmion-based synaptic device showing spin-orbit torque-controlled plasticity. The resistance states are read using the anomalous Hall measurement technique. The device integration in a neuromorphic circuit is simulated in a 3-layer feedforward artificial neural network ANN. Based on the proposed synapses, the neural network is trained and tested on the MNIST data set, where a recognition accuracy performance of about 90% is achieved. Considering the nanosecond reading/writing time scale and a good system level performance, these devices exhibit a substantial prospect for energy-efficient neuromorphic computing.

Optimizing Short-Term Photovoltaic Power Forecasting: A Novel Approach with Gaussian Process Regression and Bayesian Hyperparameter Tuning

The inherent volatility of PV power introduces unpredictability to the power system, necessitating accurate forecasting of power generation. In this study, a machine learning (ML) model based on Gaussian process regression (GPR) for short-term PV power output forecasting is proposed. With its benefits in handling nonlinear relationships, estimating uncertainty, and generating probabilistic forecasts, GPR is an appropriate approach for addressing the problems caused by PV power generation’s irregularity. Additionally, Bayesian optimization to identify optimal hyper-parameter combinations for the ML model is utilized. The research leverages solar radiation intensity data collected at 60-min and 30-min intervals over periods of 1 year and 6 months, respectively. Comparative analysis reveals that the data set with 60-min intervals performs slightly better than the 30-min intervals data set. The proposed GPR model, coupled with Bayesian optimization, demonstrates superior performance compared to contemporary ML models and traditional neural network models. This superiority is evident in 98% and 90% improvements in root mean square errors compared to feed-forward neural network and artificial neural network models, respectively. This research contributes to advancing accurate and efficient forecasting methods for PV power output, thereby enhancing the reliability and stability of power systems.

Comprehensive investigation of isotherm, RSM, and ANN modeling of CO2 capture by multi-walled carbon nanotube

Chemical vapor deposition was used to produce multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), which were modified by Fe–Ni/AC catalysts to enhance CO2 adsorption. In this study, a new realm of possibilities and potential advancements in CO2 capture technology is unveiled through the unique combination of cutting-edge modeling techniques and utilization of the recently synthesized Fe–Ni/AC catalyst adsorbent. SEM, BET, and FTIR were used to analyze their structure and morphology. The surface area of MWCNT was found to be 240 m2/g, but after modification, it was reduced to 11 m2/g. The modified MWCNT showed increased adsorption capacity with higher pressure and lower temperature, due to the introduction of new adsorption sites and favorable interactions at lower temperatures. At 25 °C and 10 bar, it reached a maximum adsorption capacity of 424.08 mg/g. The optimal values of the pressure, time, and temperature parameters were achieved at 7 bar, 2646 S and 313 K. The Freundlich and Hill models had the highest correlation with the experimental data. The Second-Order and Fractional Order kinetic models fit the adsorption results well. The adsorption process was found to be exothermic and spontaneous. The modified MWCNT has the potential for efficient gas adsorption in fields like gas storage or separation. The regenerated M-MWCNT adsorbent demonstrated the ability to be reused multiple times for the CO2 adsorption process, as evidenced by the study. In this study, a feed-forward MLP artificial neural network model was created using a back-propagation training approach to predict CO2 adsorption. The most suitable and efficient MLP network structure, selected for optimization, consisted of two hidden layers with 25 and 10 neurons, respectively. This network was trained using the Levenberg–Marquardt backpropagation algorithm. An MLP artificial neural network model was created, with a minimum MSE performance of 0.0004247 and an R2 value of 0.99904, indicating its accuracy. The experiment also utilized the blank spreadsheet design within the framework of response surface methodology to predict CO2 adsorption. The proximity between the Predicted R2 value of 0.8899 and the Adjusted R2 value of 0.9016, with a difference of less than 0.2, indicates a high level of similarity. This suggests that the model is exceptionally reliable in its ability to predict future observations, highlighting its robustness.

In laminated composite materials design, optimization mainly targets the stacking sequence configuration, which is defined by the lamina thickness and fiber orientations within each layer. Recent studies emphasize the increasing role of Machine Learning in promoting innovative composite designs by facilitating the accurate modeling of essential properties such as strength and stiffness. This study introduces two metamodels that utilize feed-forward artificial neural networks, taking laminate thickness and fiber steering angles as input parameters. The output variables, including strain energy density and the Tsai-Wu failure index, enable the prediction of stacking sequence configurations for laminated materials, a capability confirmed in a case study. The results showcase neural network models with the ability to predict these variables, achieving coefficients of determination above 0.90 for testing data.

Development and Validation of a Dry Electrode Array for sEMG Recording and Hand Movement Recognition

Surface electromyography (sEMG) signals are an indirect measurement of muscle activity, and their applications range from biomechanics to control and rehabilitation. Hand movement recognition is a very difficult endeavor due to forearm anatomy. Hence, a multichannel approach for signal acquisition and processing is required. Conventional electrodes can limit the ease-of-use and repeatability of multi-channel sEMG recordings. New techniques have been proposed in this regard, with dry electrodes being one of them. Dry electrode technology has enabled the design of better donning and doffing procedures for multichannel sEMG recording, particularly for rehabilitation and prosthetic applications. However, there is a debate about the quality of the signals recorded with them and their usefulness for the recognition of multiple hand movements. To mitigate these quality issues, this work proposes an array of reusable stainless steel dry electrodes for multichannel sEMG recording with a design that facilitates its positioning on the forearm. The dry electrodes were characterized through electrical impedance measures and a Bland-Altman test. They were found to have similar characteristics to standard, disposable sEMG pre-gelled electrodes. For placement repeatability and application feasibility, an anatomy-based electrode positioning protocol was implemented with 17 healthy subjects and six hand movements. To evaluate the application feasibility of the electrode array, a feed-forward artificial neural network was trained to classify signals from the six movements, with a 97,86±0,58% accuracy. The amplitude of the sEMG signals for two antagonist movements was compared, finding a 24,81% variation. The dry electrode array showed feasibility in acquiring and classifying sEMG signals of hand movements with high accuracy.

Assessment of milk metabolites as biomarkers for predicting feed efficiency in dairy sheep

Estimating feed efficiency (FE) in dairy sheep is challenging due to the high cost of systems that measure individual feed intake. Identifying proxies that can serve as effective predictors of FE could make it possible to introduce FE into breeding programs. Here, 39 Assaf ewes in first lactation were evaluated regarding their FE by 2 metrics, residual feed intake (RFI) and feed conversion ratio (FCR). The ewes were classified into high, medium and low groups for each metric. Milk samples of the 39 ewes were subjected to untargeted metabolomics analysis. The complete milk metabolomic signature was used to discriminate the FE groups using partial least squares discriminant analysis. A total of 41 and 26 features were selected as the most relevant features for the discrimination of RFI and FCR groups, respectively. The predictive ability when utilizing the complete milk metabolomic signature and the reduced data sets were investigated using 4 machine-learning algorithms and a multivariate regression method. The Orthogonal Partial Least Square algorithm outperformed other ML algorithms for the FCR prediction in the scenarios using the complete milk metabolite signature (r2 = 0.62 ± 0.06) and the 26 selected features (0.62 ± 0.15). Regarding RFI predictions, the scenarios using the 41 selected features outperformed the scenario with the complete milk metabolite signature, where the Multilayer feedforward artificial neural network (r2 = 0.18 ± 0.14) and extreme gradient boosting (r2 = 0.17 ± 0.15) outperformed other algorithms. The functionality of the selected metabolites implied that the metabolism of glucose, galactose, fructose, sphingolipids, amino acids, insulin, and thyroid hormones was at play. Compared with the use of traditional methods, practical applications of these biomarkers might simplify and reduce costs in selecting feed-efficient ewes.

PurposeA novel method has been proposed to reduce the false alarm rate of arrhythmia patients regarding life-threatening conditions in the intensive care unit. In this purpose, the atrial blood pressure, photoplethysmogram (PLETH), electrocardiogram (ECG) and respiratory (RESP) signals are considered as input signals.Design/methodology/approachThree machine learning approaches feed-forward artificial neural network (ANN), ensemble learning method and k-nearest neighbors searching methods are used to detect the false alarm.

The proposed framework is adaptive in many scenarios, easy to implement, computationally friendly and highly accurate and robust with overfitting issue.Originality/valueAs ECG signals consisting with PQRST wave, any deviation from the normal pattern may signify some alarming conditions. These deviations can be utilized as input to classifiers for the detection of false alarms; hence, there is no need for other feature extraction techniques. Feed-forward ANN with the Lavenberg–Marquardt algorithm has shown higher rate of convergence than other neural network algorithms which helps provide better accuracy with no overfitting.

Quantitative monitoring of icing on CFRP laminate with guided wave combining forward modeling and inverse characterization

Aircraft icing is one of the critical factors for flight safety. Timely and accurate monitoring of in-flight ice accretion is essential for flight systems to take immediate and effective action to significantly improve the efficiency of subsequent de-icing processes and ensure flight safety. Since carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) are now widely used in the aviation industry, the study of ice accretion on the surfaces of CFRP with anisotropic properties is of great importance. In this work, a three-dimensional frequency domain finite element model for icing CFRP laminate is first established, via which the mechanism of mode conversion of ultrasonic guided waves (UGWs) at different ice layer thicknesses is quantitatively analyzed. Then, the time-domain finite element simulation was performed, from which the time–frequency domain spectrogram of the acquired UGW signal is obtained by short-time Fourier transform (STFT). The extracted frequency–time-of-flight (ToF) curve of the signal via STFT shows high agreement with the theoretical results, which confirms the influence of icing on UGW propagation. Finally, numerous experiments with bonded lead zirconate titanate wafers to excite and acquire UGWs are conducted with different ice layer thicknesses and lengths on CFRP. The extracted frequency–ToF curves of UGW signals are used as input to a two-layer feedforward artificial neural network (ANN) to accurately evaluate the length and thickness of the ice layer. The high reliability of this method with ANN is confirmed, which shows the potential of the proposed UGW-based method for quantitative monitoring of icing length and thickness on aircraft CFRP laminate.

Monitoring carbon emissions using deep learning and statistical process control: a strategy for impact assessment of governments’ carbon reduction policies

Across the globe, governments are developing policies and strategies to reduce carbon emissions to address climate change. Monitoring the impact of governments’ carbon reduction policies can significantly enhance our ability to combat climate change and meet emissions reduction targets. One promising area in this regard is the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in carbon reduction policy and strategy monitoring. While researchers have explored applications of AI on data from various sources, including sensors, satellites, and social media, to identify areas for carbon emissions reduction, AI applications in tracking the effect of governments’ carbon reduction plans have been limited. This study presents an AI framework based on long short-term memory (LSTM) and statistical process control (SPC) for the monitoring of variations in carbon emissions, using UK annual CO2 emission (per capita) data, covering a period between 1750 and 2021. This paper used LSTM to develop a surrogate model for the UK’s carbon emissions characteristics and behaviours. As observed in our experiments, LSTM has better predictive abilities than ARIMA, Exponential Smoothing and feedforward artificial neural networks (ANN) in predicting CO2 emissions on a yearly prediction horizon. Using the deviation of the recorded emission data from the surrogate process, the variations and trends in these behaviours are then analysed using SPC, specifically Shewhart individual/moving range control charts. The result shows several assignable variations between the mid-1990s and 2021, which correlate with some notable UK government commitments to lower carbon emissions within this period. The framework presented in this paper can help identify periods of significant deviations from a country’s normal CO2 emissions, which can potentially result from the government’s carbon reduction policies or activities that can alter the amount of CO2 emissions.

Label synchronization for Hybrid Federated Learning in manufacturing and predictive maintenance

AbstractArtificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming the future of industries by introducing new paradigms. To address data privacy and other challenges of decentralization, research has focused on Federated Learning (FL), which combines distributed Machine Learning (ML) models from multiple parties without exchanging confidential information. However, conventional FL methods struggle to handle situations where data samples have diverse features and sizes. We propose a Hybrid Federated Learning solution with label synchronization to overcome this challenge. Our FedLabSync algorithm trains a feed-forward Artificial Neural Network while alerts that it can aggregate knowledge of other ML architectures compatible with the Stochastic Gradient Descent algorithm by conducting a penalized collaborative optimization. We conducted two industrial case studies: product inspection in Bosch factories and aircraft component Remaining Useful Life predictions. Our experiments on decentralized data scenarios demonstrate that FedLabSync can produce a global AI model that achieves results on par with those of centralized learning methods.

An innovative machine learning based on feed-forward artificial neural network and equilibrium optimization for predicting solar irradiance

As is known, having a reliable analysis of energy sources is an important task toward sustainable development. Solar energy is one of the most advantageous types of renewable energy. Compared to fossil fuels, it is cleaner, freely available, and can be directly exploited for electricity. Therefore, this study is concerned with suggesting novel hybrid models for improving the forecast of Solar Irradiance (IS). First, a predictive model, namely Feed-Forward Artificial Neural Network (FFANN) forms the non-linear contribution between the IS and dominant meteorological and temporal parameters (including humidity, temperature, pressure, cloud coverage, speed and direction of wind, month, day, and hour). Then, this framework is optimized using several metaheuristic algorithms to create hybrid models for predicting the IS. According to the accuracy assessments, metaheuristic algorithms attained satisfying training for the FFANN by using 80% of the data. Moreover, applying the trained models to the remaining 20% proved their high proficiency in forecasting the IS in unseen environmental circumstances. A comparison among the optimizers revealed that Equilibrium Optimization (EO) could achieve a higher accuracy than Wind-Driven Optimization (WDO), Optics Inspired Optimization (OIO), and Social Spider Algorithm (SOSA). In another phase of this study, Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is applied to identify the most contributive meteorological and temporal factors. The PCA results can be used to optimize the problem dimension, as well as to suggest effective real-world measures for improving solar energy production. Lastly, the EO-based solution is yielded in the form of an explicit formula for a more convenient estimation of the IS.

Improving the prediction of energy performance of building using electromagnetic field optimization algorithm

Abstract Considering the significance of proper energy performance analysis of buildings, many recent studies have presented potential applications of machine learning models for predicting buildings’ thermal loads. Some of these models have been built upon optimization algorithms in order to enhance their prediction accuracy. However, due to the importance of time in engineering calculations, the long optimization time of the hybrid models has remained a problem. In this study, a quick optimization algorithm called electromagnetic field optimization (EFO) is presented to deal with this issue. The EFO is combined with a feed-forward artificial neural network (FFANN) to predict the annual thermal energy demand (EDAT) of a residential building based on the building’s characteristics and architecture. A well-known dataset consisting of 11 inputs is used to train and test the proposed model. Additionally, nine conventional FFANNs and several hybrid machine learning are considered benchmark models to evaluate the performance of the EFO-FFANN. According to the results, the calculated mean absolute percentage errors of the EFO-FFANN in the training and testing phases were 2.06% and 1.81%, respectively. The EFO algorithm could improve the prediction accuracy of the conventional FFANNs by around 38%. Hence, the proposed model and its simplified formula can of interest to both civil and energy engineers to do informed decision-making and optimize building energy performance in real-world projects.

Predictive Quality Analytics of Surface Roughness in Turning Operation Using Polynomial and Artificial Neural Network Models

The variability of the material properties of steel from different suppliers causes problems in achieving the required surface quality after turning. Therefore, the manufacturer needs to estimate the resulting quality before starting production, especially if it is an expensive, small-batch production from stainless steel. Predictive models will make it possible to estimate the surface roughness from the mechanical properties of steel and thus support decision making about supplier selection or acceptance of a material supply. This research presents a step-by-step decision-making procedure, which enables the trained staff to make quick decisions based on commonly available information in the Mill Test Certificate (MTC). A new multivariate second-order polynomial model and feedforward backpropagation artificial neural network (ANN) models have been developed using input variables from the MTC: Tensile Strength, Yield Strength, Elongation, and Hardness. Models were used to enhance the methodological robustness in formulating the decision if the predicted surface roughness is outside the required range, even before accepting the delivery. Both models can accurately predict surface roughness, while the ANN model is more accurate than the polynomial model; however, the predictive model is sensitive to the accuracy of the input data, and the model’s prediction is valid only under precisely defined conditions.

Simultaneously maximizing microalgal biomass and lipid productivities by machine learning driven modeling, global sensitivity analysis and multi-objective optimization for sustainable biodiesel production

Simultaneous enhancement in the productivities of microalgal biomass and lipids that are inversely correlated to each other has been a long-standing challenge before the scientists engaged in algal biodiesel research and innovation. This study, develops an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model and uses multi-objective optimization approach to determine the process parameters, namely, light intensity, CO2%, air flow rate, and C/N ratio to maximize biomass and lipid productivities of microalga, Chlorella sorokiniana, simultaneously. Experimental data based on central composite design (CCD) were used to train a feed-forward multilayer ANN with four critical parameters. The global sensitivity analysis was performed on the trained ANN model using Sobol's method to assess the relative significance of the four process variables. Since the objectives of maximizing biomass and lipid productivities conflict with each other, multi-objective optimization approach was used for deriving the optimal process parameters, experimental validation of which resulted in approximately 3 times increase in biomass productivity and 7 times increase in lipid productivity. On transesterification of the lipid, the biodiesel product with saturated to unsaturated fatty acids ratio of 48:52 conformed very well to the international standards, ASTM D6751 and EN14214, thereby making it an environment friendly green biofuel. Thus, the present study showcases the successful application of machine learning tool in analysing the global sensitivity analysis of process variables, and employ it for multi-objective optimization towards achieving maximum microalgal biomass and lipid productivities concomitantly for potentially sustainable production of biodiesel.

Automatic History Matching for Adjusting Permeability Field of Fractured Basement Reservoir Simulation Model Using Seismic, Well Log, and Production Data

Developing automatic history matching (AHM) methods to replace the traditional manual history matching (MHM) approach in adjusting the permeability distribution of the reservoir simulation model has been studied by many authors. Because permeability values need to be evaluated at hundreds of thousands of grid cells in a typical reservoir simulation model, it is necessary to apply a reparameterization technique to allow the optimization algorithms to be implemented with fewer variables. In basic reparameterization techniques including zonation and pilot point methods, the calibrations are usually based solely on the production data with no systematic link to the geological and geophysical data, and therefore, the obtained permeability distribution may be not geologically consistent. Several other reparameterization techniques have attempted to preserve geological consistency by incorporating 4D seismic data; however, these techniques cannot be applied to our fractured basement reservoirs (FBRs) as they do not have 4D seismic data. Taking into account these challenges, in this study, an AHM methodology and workflow have been developed using a new reparameterization technique. This approach attempts to minimize the potential for geological nonconsistency of the calibrated results by linking the permeability to geophysical data. The proposed methodology can be applied to fields with only traditional geophysical data (3D seismic and conventional well logs). In the proposed workflow, the spatial distributions of seismic attributes and geomechanical properties were calculated and estimated from 3D seismic data and well logs, respectively. After that, a feed-forward artificial neural network (ANN) model trained by the back-propagation algorithm of the relationship between initial permeability with seismic attributes and geomechanical properties of their grid cell values is developed. Then, the calibration of the permeability distribution is performed by adjustment of the ANN model. Modification of the ANN model is performed using the simultaneous perturbation stochastic approximation (SPSA) algorithm to calibrate transmission coefficients in the ANN model to minimize the discrepancy between the simulated results and observed data. The developed methodology is applied to calibrate the permeability distribution of a simulation model of Bach Ho FBR in Vietnam. The effectiveness of the methodology is evident by comparing the historical matches with an available manually history-matched simulation model. The application shows that the proposed methodology could be considered as a suitable practical approach for adjusting the permeability distribution for FBR reservoir simulation models.

In the second scenario, the data has been trained and tested depending on the previously mentioned factors. The obtained results from the four algorithms have been compared to show their performance and their efficiency in the values of Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), Normalized Root Mean Squared Error (NRMSE), and Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE). The four featured algorithms prove their good performance with less error in the forecasting model.
