This study addresses the pressing issue of energy consumption and efficiency in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), a region experiencing growing demand for energy resources. Temperature control plays a vital role in achieving energy efficiency; however, traditional control systems may struggle to adapt to the non-linear and time-varying characteristics of the problem. To tackle this challenge, a fuzzy petri net (FPN) controller is proposed as a more suitable solution that combines fuzzy logic (FL) and petri nets (PN) to model and simulate complex systems.

High-quality image reconstruction is essential for many electrical capacitance tomography (CT) applications. Raw capacitance measurements are used in the literature to generate low-resolution images. However, such low-resolution images are not sufficient for proper functionality of most systems.

Energy consumption is steadily increasing in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), which imposes continuous strains on the electrical load. Furthermore, consumption rationalization measures do not seem to improve the situation in any way. Therefore, the implementation of energy saving policies become an urgent need.

Statement Of Problem: One of the main problems posed by complete dentures is retention and stability. In order to solve this problem, dentists and the dental industry for a long time have attempted to improve denture adhesion by developing a range of "glues" of highly varied composition and efficacy.

Purpose: The present in vivo clinical study evaluates whether the adhesives used to improve complete denture retention are truly effective and able to increase denture adhesion to the mucosa covering the edentulous alveolar ridge.
