Published: March 2019

To generate or maintain a turbulent flow, one needs to introduce kinetic energy. This energy injection necessarily fluctuates and these power fluctuations act on all turbulent excited length scales. If the power is injected using forces proportional to the velocity, such as those common in shear flows, or with a force acting at the largest scales only, the spectrum of these fluctuations is shown to have a universal inertial range, proportional to the energy spectrum.

This study investigates the spatio-temporal distribution of formaldehyde (HCHO) over the mainland Southeast Asian region (including Northeast India) from 2019 to 2022 using TROPOMI satellite data. HCHO is a key atmospheric trace gas which is influenced by both natural processes and anthropogenic activities. We analyze HCHO levels in relation to atmospheric species including carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO), and environmental factors such as land surface temperature (LST), precipitation (PPT), fire radiative power (FRP), and enhanced vegetation index (EVI).

Advanced low-power filter architecture for biomedical signals with adaptive tuning.

PLoS One

January 2025

Computer Engineering, CCSIT, King Faisal University, Al Hufuf, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

This paper presents a low-power, second-order composite source-follower-based filter architecture optimized for biomedical signal processing, particularly ECG and EEG applications. Source-follower-based filters are recommended in the literature for high-frequency applications due to their lower power consumption when compared to filters with alternative topologies. However, they are not suitable for biomedical applications requiring low cutoff frequencies as they are designed to operate in the saturation region.

Load frequency control (LFC) is critical for maintaining stability in interconnected power systems, addressing frequency deviations and tie-line power fluctuations due to system disturbances. Existing methods often face challenges, including limited robustness, poor adaptability to dynamic conditions, and early convergence in optimization. This paper introduces a novel application of the sinh cosh optimizer (SCHO) to design proportional-integral (PI) controllers for a hybrid photovoltaic (PV) and thermal generator-based two-area power system.

Surfacic networks.

PNAS Nexus

January 2025

Faculty of Architecture, and Urban Systems Institute, The University of Hong Kong, Pok Fu Lam, Hong Kong SAR.

Surfacic networks are structures built upon a 2D manifold. Many systems, including transportation networks and various urban networks, fall into this category. The fluctuations of node elevations imply significant deviations from typical plane networks and require specific tools to understand their impact.
