A Machine Learning-Based Framework for Urban Traffic Congestion Prediction and Control Using Intelligent Transportation Systems
Abstract: Abstract Traffic congestion remains a critical challenge in rapidly expanding urban areas, causing increased travel delays, excessive fuel consumption, environmental degradation, and economic inefficiencies. Traditional traffic management approaches are often insufficient, as they lack the ability to respond dynamically to continuously changing traffic conditions. This study proposes a novel data-driven framework for the prediction and management of traffic congestion using Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). The methodology integrates real-time and historical …

Nanotechnology-Enabled Non-Invasive Teeth Whitening: Safety,Efficacy, and Regulatory Perspectives with a Focus on India, Asia, and Developed Countries
Abstract: Demand for tooth whitening is growing worldwide, but conventional peroxide-based bleaching is associated with dentin hypersensitivity, enamel softening, and softtissue irritation, especially under repeated or high-concentration use. Nanotechnology offers a new class of non-invasive whitening strategies that aim to combine esthetic improvement with enamel protection and remineralization. Among these, nanohydroxyapatite (nanoHAP) toothpastes and gels have the most advanced evidence base; in vitro and in situ studies indicate that nanoHAP deposits …

Data Science for Environmental Modelling
Abstract: Abstract: Soil moisture is a critical Earth system variable linking atmospheric, hydrological, and ecological processes. However, observations are sparse and fragmented: in situ gauges provide point data, satellite missions (SMAP, SMOS, Sentinel-1) offer broad coverage at coarse resolutionQ, and land‐surface models (GLDAS, ERA5, etc.) yield estimates with their own biase. Here we propose a conceptual framework for integrated environmental data modelling, combining rainfall, temperature, and soil moisture information with machine …

Mechanistic Insights into Solvent-Controlled Stepwise and Concerted Cycloadditions of the Propadienyl Cation with Oxoamides: A DFT Study
Abstract: AbstractOxazoles constitute an important class of heterocycles with widespread applications in medicinal chemistry and materials science, yet the mechanistic features governing their formation via cationic cycloaddition reactions remain incompletely understood. In this work, we present a comprehensive density functional theory (DFT) investigation into the reaction between the propadienyl cation and oxoamides as a model system for oxazole ring formation. Using the CAM-B3LYP/6–31+G(d,p) level of theory, we systematically compare gas-phase reactivity …

Red Yeast as a Sustainable Platform for Bio-Oil and Natural Pigment Production
Abstract: Oleaginous yeast represents a promising biotechnological platform for the sustainable production ofbio-oil, an alternative to fossil-derived fuels. These microorganisms can accumulate lipids up to 20–70% of their dry cell weight, primarily in the form of triacylglycerols that are structurally similar toplant and animal oils. Among them, certain species exhibit distinctive red or pink pigmentation andare collectively referred to as red yeasts. These yeasts not only synthesize significant amounts ofstorage lipids …

A Review: Performance analysis of overlapping shear keys in box girder bridges using finite element based software
Abstract: Abstract - Box girder bridges are widely used for long-span constructions due to their high strength-to-weight ratio and structural efficiency. A fundamental component in these bridges is the shear key which allows for effective transfer of loads between bridge segments and upholds the overall structural performance through the different load cases. Overlapping shear keys are becoming increasingly popular because they greatly enhance inter-segment connections, which decrease relative displacements. This paper …
