Abstract This paper aims to introduce the novel concept of neutrosophic crisp soft set (NCSS), including various types of neutrosophic crisp soft sets (NCSSs) and their fundamental operations. We define NCS-mapping and its inverse NCS-mapping between two NCS-classes. We develop a robust mathematical modeling with the help of NCS-mapping to analyze the emerging trends in social networking systems (SNSs) for our various generations. We investigate the advantages, disadvantages, and natural aspects of SNSs for five generations. With the changing of the generations, it is analyzed that emerging trends and the benefits of SNSs are increasing day by day. The suggested modeling… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract The huge number of devices available in cyberspace and the increasing number of security vulnerabilities discovered daily have added many difficulties in keeping track of security vulnerabilities, especially when not using special security tools and software. Mass scanning of the Internet has opened a broad range of possibilities for security tools that help cybersecurity centers detect weaknesses and vulnerabilities in cyberspace. However, one critical issue faced by national cybersecurity centers is the collection of information about IP addresses and subnet ranges. To develop a data collection mechanism for such information and maintain this information with continuous updates, a scanning system… More >

Abstract Non-centrifugal cane sugar (NCS), known as Jaggery, is a form of unre- fined sugar which contains molasses. The integration of renewable energy resources in the production of NCS, have been analysed. The work investigates the energy requirements of a system incorporating a freeze-concentrator and a solar thermal heater to reduce the reliance on the combustion of bagasse or other fuels in a Jaggery production process. Depending on the extent to which freeze concentration can be incorporated into the process, results show that the minimum theoretical energy required to produce Jaggery can be reduced by 91.30% overall. Although difficult in practice,… More >

Abstract Performance requirements for packaging films may include barrier properties, transparency, flexibility, and tensile strength. Conventional packaging materials, such as plastic films and laminates, are typically made from petroleum-based polymers. Currently, there is a drive to develop sustainable packaging materials. These alternative materials must be able to be manufactured economically and on a commercial scale, exhibit barrier properties and transparency, and provide adequate mechanical performance. As a biobased, renewable material, cellulose nanomaterials (CNs) are ideally suited to be used in sustainable packaging applications. CNs include cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) and cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) and each can provide benefit to packaging films. Manufactured… More >
