Abstract Advancements in biofuel production technologies are essential for reducing global dependence on fossil fuels and addressing their overexploitation. Many valuable components of biomass, such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, remain underused in traditional biorefineries, which typically rely on a single feedstock to produce a primary ...

This plot represents the flow configuration of the two‐phase nanofluid model. The dynamics of boundary layer micropolar nanofluid flow, heat and mass transfer characteristics past a vertical exponentional stretching/shrinking sheet in the presence of chemical reaction and thermal raditaion effects are investigated. In addition, the Lorentz and buoyancy

ABSTRACT Recent tsunamigenic earthquakes in Japan have highlighted the emerging fire hazard triggered by tsunami inundation and its impact on tsunami vertical evacuation (TVE) structures. This new type of fire following earthquake, referred to as “tsunami fires,” may be a potential universal hazard that tsunami‐prone countries face; however, it has not

Optimization of Energy Efficiency in Photovoltaic Water Pumping Systems Using Neural Networks
This study investigates an optimal control strategy for a photovoltaic (PV) water pumping system aimed at improving efficiency and autonomy in off‐grid applications. The system uses an induction motor with direct torque control and compares three maximum power point tracking (MPPT) techniques: neural network–based MPPT, Incremental Conductance (IC ...
