Graphite and metal nitrate-infused HDPE composites for enhanced thermal performance in energy-efficient building envelopes
Published 2025“…Analysis such as Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and dielectric spectroscopy analyses further revealed extensive interaction between filler matrices, a decrease in phonon scattering, and a positive increase in crystallinity which led to the improved thermal performance.The TGA results showed that the composite exhibited greater thermal stability, and the residue mass after the decomposition process was 9%, indicating increased carbonization and structural integrity. …”

Reinforcement R-learning model for time scheduling of on-demand fog placement
Published 2020“…Nevertheless, taking a real-life scenario, the cloud might limit the number of fogs to place for minimizing the complexity of monitoring a large number of fogs and cost for volunteers that do not offer their resources for free. This implies choosing the right time and best volunteer to create a fog which the cloud can benefit from is essential. …”
