This study presents an advanced nonlinear numerical analysis using ABAQUS to assess the blast resistance of curved rubber-reinforced concrete (RRC) barrier walls. Four types of concrete, normal concrete (NC), and rubberized concretes with 10%, 30%, and 50% rubber particle volume fractions (RC10, RC30, RC50) were modeled and evaluated under blast lo...

Advancements in technology have increased demand for systems that continuously monitor the cardiovascular system in a non-invasive, energy-efficient way. Wearable sensors, in their current form, have many drawbacks: they require external power sources and are made of rigid components. This can impact the user experience, the system, the sensor's ab...

Geodesy is dependent on proper positioning and spatial information, and this is usually determined by GNSS and remote sensing techniques. Nevertheless, the conventional techniques are usually limited in terms of accuracy, particularly where the environment is complex. This paper explores the use of GNSS data in conjunction with remote sensing in or...

Influential node detection in networks is vital in diverse applications, particularly with the online social networks (OSNs). Measures of centrality, traditional ones, fail to sufficiently describe the influence of nodes on complex and multilayered networks. This paper presents a novel hybrid method that combines traditional topological centrality ...
