Unlocking Financial Inclusion: The Dynamics of Bank Account Ownership in Urban Slums

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Financial inclusion is a key driver of sustainable development, contributing to poverty reduction (SDG 1), gender equality (SDG 5), and reduced inequalities (SDG 10). Despite extensive financial‐inclusion policies in India, residents of urban slums remain largely excluded from formal banking systems.

Phenomenological Prediction of Defect Formation in Continuous Casting of Steel Utilizing Fundamental Modeling and Machine Learning

open access: yessteel research international, EarlyView.
In this article, decision tree classifiers are developed to predict defects in continuous casting of steel utilizing caster data from SSAB Raahe Works (Finland). Phenomenological quality criteria extracted from applicable process measurements and results from solidification and heat transfer simulations are utilized in prediction.

Strip loading in reinforced concrete: Mechanical modeling and experimental validation

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Strip loading of reinforced concrete is a common problem in engineering practice. The concrete compressive strength at the load introduction can be several times higher than the uniaxial concrete compressive strength, which can be attributed to geometrical and passive confining stresses caused by load dispersion and reinforcement, respectively.

Incremental upper bound modeling of concrete failures in timber‐concrete notched connections

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper introduces a novel theoretical framework for developing incremental upper bound solutions, which is applied to predict the response of two local concrete failures in timber‐concrete composite (TCC) decks with notched connections. The new approach enables a prediction of the capacity at the onset of failure as well as the entire post‐

Experimental and theoretical investigation of longitudinal tunnel lining joints with confining reinforcement

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Precast reinforced concrete segmental linings are frequently used in modern tunneling. In these linings, the longitudinal joints typically have a reduced contact cross‐section and thus often govern the design, particularly in tunnels under high hydrostatic pressure or crossing squeezing or swelling ground with correspondingly high ...

Mission Aware Cyber‐Physical Security

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Perimeter cybersecurity, while essential, has proven insufficient against sophisticated, coordinated, and cyber‐physical attacks. In contrast, mission‐centric cybersecurity emphasizes finding evidence of attack impact on mission success, allowing for targeted resource allocation to mitigate vulnerabilities and protect critical assets.

Robust uncertainty mitigation for multiple microgrids based on online response strategy of energy storage systems

open access: yesEnergy Conversion and Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract The high penetration of renewable energy sources introduces uncertainty, posing significant challenges to the secure operation of multiple microgrids interconnected through lower voltage flexible interconnection devices. To address power and voltage fluctuations caused by these uncertainties, this paper proposes a robust optimisation method ...
