Acute intense fatigue does not modify the effect of EVA and TPU custom foot orthoses on running mechanics, running economy and perceived comfort by Ken Van Alsenoy (14150559)

“…Two-way repeated measures ANOVA [condition (CON, EVA, and TPU) × fatigue (fresh and fatigued)] were conducted. Flight time shortened (P = 0.026), peak braking (P = 0.016) and push-off (P = 0.032) forces decreased and vertical stiffness increased (P = 0.014) from before to after the repeated-sprint exercise, independent of footwear condition. …”

Cyberbullying Detection and Abuser Profile Identification on Social Media for Roman Urdu by Ayesha Atif (22155133)

“…Furthermore, we present temporal abusive tweet probability analysis method to provide a nuanced analysis of the number of bullying and non-bullying tweets sent by individuals within a specific time interval. To evaluate the performance, we compare the GRU-based approach with other machine learning models. …”

A High‐Performance MPPT Solution for Solar DC Microgrids: Leveraging the Hippopotamus Algorithm for Greater Efficiency and Stability by Debabrata Mazumdar (18560506)

“…As per stability concerns, the proposed HA‐based MPPT approach attains minimal settling time and gives steady‐state stable output power to its load in both partial shading, temperature fluctuation and steady‐state conditions. …”

Fuzzy Logic Adaptive Crow Search Algorithm for MPPT of a Partially Shaded Photovoltaic System by Mohamed Ali Zeddini (22047920)

“…Additionally, the proposed FL-CSA-based MPPT strategy reduces the convergence time by an average of 42%, 63% and 61%, respectively, in comparison to the CCSA, the CPSO and the P&O MPPT methods.…”

Tailored nanofiber composites for a flexible piezoelectric nanogenerator: Poly(vinylidene fluoride) with BaTiO₃/NiFe₂O₄ by Hemalatha Parangusan (6556133)

“…An excellent alternative is a self-sufficient, adaptable piezoelectric energy harvester, easily integrated with small electronics to generate real-time, sustained energy. This study develops a piezoelectric nanogenerator (PENG) by uniformly drawing spun membranes containing 2 wt% of barium titanate (BaTiO₃) and nickel ferrite (NiFe₂O₄). …”

Sustainable Urban Regeneration of Blighted Neighborhoods: The Case of Al Ghanim Neighborhood, Doha, Qatar by Victoria Maruanova Mareeva (18877591)

“…<p dir="ltr">At a time when urban expansion and regeneration are being prioritized, many cities are undergoing significant widespread urban decay. …”

SHORT- VS LONG-READ SEQUENCING OF SOIL ARTHROPODS by Sten Anslan (8288664)

“…</b></p><p dir="ltr">The characterization of soil arthropods traditionally follows morphological identifications of specimens extracted from soil, which is a highly laborious and time-consuming process. Metabarcoding has become an increasingly utilized approach for species identification from environmental DNA (eDNA) samples, and here, we examine the congruence of soil mite communities between morphological and two metabarcoding datasets. …”

Effect of concentration of calcium and sulfate ions on gypsum scaling of reverse osmosis membrane, mechanistic study by Mohammad Y. Ashfaq (14152290)

“…It was noted that the permeate flux declined more than 90% when the concentration of ions was increased to 50–150 mM. Principal component analysis was applied to the flux decline over time data, which helped to cluster the data sets based on the extent of membrane scaling at different conditions. …”
