A Model for Plastic-Hydrolytic Damage Bioresorbable Polymer Composites
Abstract: This paper explains and assesses a recently developed constitutive model for elastic-damage that may sustain plastic-hydrolytic damage. When a metallic material is subjected to plastic strain, voids and microcracks in the metal matrix start to form, develop, and merge. This is what causes ductilitydegradation in metals. Only a few of the many models that have been presented to depict ductile failure have done a thorough analysis of the entire damage …

Dynamic Matrix Control Versus Nonlinear ModelPredictive Control for the Van de Vusse ContinuousStirred-Tank Reactor: Diagnosing and Correcting aCost-Function Pathology That Masked NMPC’sTrue Performance
Abstract: The Van de Vusse reaction in a continuous stirred-tank reactor (CSTR) is a benchmark for nonlinear multivariable control, but its narrow operating envelope creates a trap for nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC): when the setpoint step is small relative to the plant’s reachable range, a standard quadratic NMPC cost function can make zero control action mathematically optimal, even with a perfect prediction model. This paper documents that failure mode, traces …

AI-Based Deepfake Voice Detection Model for Hindi Language
Abstract: Most current research on deepfake voice detection focuses heavily on English or Mandarin, creating a significant security gap for Hindi speakers. To address this, we developed a detection framework specifically tailored for the Hindi language using a lightweight approach: Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficient (MFCC) feature extraction paired with an XGBoost classifier. We trained the system on a large dataset comprising over 99,000 real voice samples and roughly 3,800 synthetic samples, each …
