A Novel Approach to Energy Management in Electric Steelworks

steel research international, EarlyView.
Feed‐forward neural networks are exploited to estimate electric energy consumptions of the electric arc furnace and ladle furnace processes. The models are used to optimize production schedule so that more energy intensive grades are produced when the cost of energy is lower.

Computational intelligence model for predicting the compressive strength of FRP‐confined concrete column

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) wrapping technology is commonly used to enhance the compressive strength (CS) of reinforced concrete (RC) members. Accurate prediction of the compressive strength of FRP‐confined concrete columns is crucial for optimizing structural design and helps reduce the time and costs associated with physical testing ...

Narrative Research in Applied Linguistics, Language Education, and TESOL Quarterly

TESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper aims to position narrative research within the realm of language education and examine its methodological application in TESOL Quarterly publications. I will first discuss the earlier developments stemming from life history research before focusing on the key conceptual principles explored in prior studies within language education.

Staging concept for aging management: Definition, mechanism, and coping strategies

VIEW, EarlyView.
We divided the overall aging stage into “pre‐aging”, “aging compensation”, and “aging disability”. For each stage, we delineate the clinical presentations, biological phenomena, theoretical underpinnings, and key management priorities. Abstract Aging, as a gradual and largely irreversible biological process, characterized by declining organismal ...
