Abstract As the integration of electronic components in high-performance servers increases, heat generation significantly impacts performance and raises failure rates. Therefore, heat dissipation has become a critical concern in electronic circuit design. This study uses numerical simulations to investigate the heat dissipation characteristics of electronic components in air-cooled servers. By adjusting airflow speed, heat sink configurations, and the arrangement of straight-fin heat sinks, we optimize heat dissipation performance and analyze the mechanisms at different airflow speeds. The results show that, at the same airflow speed, the temperature of the heat sink is lower than that of… More >

Abstract Floral scent serves as a key criterion for evaluating the ornamental value of flowering plants. Herbaceous peony (Paeonia lactiflora Pall.), a traditional Chinese ornamental species, is valued for its vibrant coloration, intricate floral morphology, and positive cultural symbolism. In this study, dynamic headspace adsorption coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was employed to analyze volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in flowers of 120 herbaceous peony cultivars at the half-opening stage. We detected 86 VOCs, comprising 25 aromatic compounds (79.70%), 21 hydrocarbons (10.51%), 29 terpenoids (8.37%), 7 fatty acid derivatives (1.03%), and 4 heterocyclic compounds (0.38%). The cultivar ‘Dr.… More >

Abstract The reliability and efficiency of photovoltaic (PV) systems are essential for sustainable energy production, requiring accurate fault detection to minimize energy losses. This study proposes a hybrid model integrating Neighborhood Components Analysis (NCA) with a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to improve fault detection and diagnosis. Unlike Principal Component Analysis (PCA), which may compromise class relationships during feature extraction, NCA preserves these relationships, enhancing classification performance. The hybrid model combines NCA with CNN, a fundamental deep learning architecture, to enhance fault detection and diagnosis capabilities. The performance of the proposed NCA-CNN model was evaluated against other More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract It is known that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play vital roles in biological processes and contribute to the progression, development, and treatment of various diseases. Obviously, understanding associations between diseases and lncRNAs significantly enhances our ability to interpret disease mechanisms. Nevertheless, the process of determining lncRNA-disease associations is costly, labor-intensive, and time-consuming. Hence, it is expected to foster computational strategies to uncover lncRNA-disease relationships for further verification to save time and resources. In this study, a collaborative filtering and graph attention network-based LncRNA-Disease Association (CFGANLDA) method was nominated to expose potential lncRNA-disease associations. First, it… More >

Abstract Background: Oral cancer remains a significant global health challenge, as it has high morbidity and mortality rates. Current treatments show limited efficacy and have severe side effects, prompting searches for new therapeutic agents. SH003, a traditional herbal formulation comprising Astragalus membranaceus, Angelica gigas, and Trichosanthes kirilowii, has demonstrated potential anticancer properties in previous studies. However, its specific efficacy against oral cancer and the role of its key components, particularly Cucurbitacin D, remain underexplored. Methods: The cytotoxic effects of SH003 and its major components—i.e., Cucurbitacin D, Decursin, Formononetin, and Nodakenin—were evaluated using 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-Diphenyltetrazolium Bromide (MTT), Trypan Blue exclusion, and… More >

Abstract Global mortality rates are greatly impacted by malignancies of the brain and nervous system. Although, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) plays a pivotal role in detecting brain tumors; however, manual assessment is time-consuming and susceptible to human error. To address this, we introduce ICA2-SVM, an advanced computational framework integrating Independent Component Analysis Architecture-2 (ICA2) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) for automated tumor segmentation and classification. ICA2 is utilized for image preprocessing and optimization, enhancing MRI consistency and contrast. The Fast-Marching Method (FMM) is employed to delineate tumor regions, followed by SVM for precise classification. Validation on More >

Abstract Erosion in slurry pumps presents a persistent challenge in industrial applications. This study examines the erosion of the static components of a 150ZJ-C42 centrifugal slurry pump, currently in operation at a beneficiation plant, under varying particle conditions. Utilizing high-precision three-dimensional reverse engineering, the pump’s flow passage geometry was reconstructed to facilitate detailed erosion analysis. Focusing on the front and rear baffles of the pump chamber, as well as the volute, erosion patterns were analyzed for different particle volume concentrations and sizes. The results reveal that the highest erosion damage consistently occurs near the volute tongue,… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract To study the main aroma components of Phalaenopsis orchid and their relationship with colors, 10 fragrant cultivars with different colors, like pink, rose, yellow, and purple, were used as samples in this experiment. Headspace-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to determine the main components of floral fragrance and analyze the correlation between floral color and fragrance. The results showed that the main aroma components of the 10 fragrant cultivars of Phalaenopsis were alcohols, alkenes, esters, and benzene ring compounds, and the main aroma components of different cultivars were diverse. The main aroma components of yellow fragrant flowers… More >

Abstract Aspergillus species produce aflatoxins and raise concerns about food safety in departmental stores and manufacturing mills. To address the risks posed by aflatoxins, and to advise the public on the highest quality rice that serves as a nutritious food source, an inquiry following the guidelines outlined in both local and international standards of food safety for the presence of aflatoxins is an essential requirement. Therefore, 16 white rice samples were selected randomly from low/high socio-economic departmental stores from 16 different localities. Grind powdered rice filtrate was extracted using chloroform. The filtrate applied on TLC plates and… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Shale gas reservoirs typically contain numerous nanoscale pores, with pore size playing a significant role in influencing the gas behavior. To better understand the related mechanisms, this study employs the Gauge-GEMC molecular simulation method to systematically analyze the effects of various pore sizes (5, 10, 20, and 40 nm) on the phase behavior and dew point pressure of the shale gas reservoir components. The simulation results reveal that when pore sizes are smaller than 40 nm, the dew point pressure increases significantly as the pore size decreases. For instance, the dew point pressure in 5… More > Graphic Abstract
