Abstract:

Microgrids (MGs) are having more difficulty sustaining power quality (PQ) as renewable energy sources (RES) become more widely integrated. The issue of supraharmonics (SH), characterized by high-frequency emissions spanning from 2 kHz to 150 kHz, holds significant importance. The switching processes used in these RES power electronic converters are to blame for these harmonics. Traditional passive filters and capacitor banks are ill-equipped to deal with the dynamic changes in system characteristics that occur at the PCC. Voltage swell, unbalance, and power factor problems result from this. The Shunt Active Filter (SAF) has shown superior efficacy in mitigating harmonic issues in power systems. Nonetheless, its performance is contingent upon the rapidity and precision of its control algorithms. This paper employs the parabolic carrier-based pulse-width modulation (PWM) technique to regulate current in SAF, thereby minimizing SH. This method incorporates using a pair of positive and negative parabolic PWM carriers to control the switching states of the two switches in the converter phase leg, simultaneously constraining the current tracking error within the nonlinear parabolic region. The proposed filter is designed using the MATLAB/Simulink environment and used in a modelled MG with specified ratings. The results of the harmonic analysis showed a distortion contribution in the SH range of merely 0.03%. The minimal increase in THD when extending the analysis up to 150 kHz demonstrates the active filter’s effectiveness in suppressing SH.

A LIGHTWEIGHT EDGE-LAYER GROUP KEY AGREEMENT PROTOCOL FOR IOT USING ELLIPTIC CURVE CRYPTOGRAPHY AND SHAMIR’S SECRET SHARING

Abstract:

A Group Key Agreement Protocol enables secure multi-party communication by establishing a common cryptographic key, which is especially critical at the edge layer of IoT networks where devices often operate in decentralized and resource-constrained environments. However, existing protocols face several challenges, including high computational overhead, single points of failure, and a lack of integrity validation during the Distribution of the Group Key. To address these challenges, we propose a lightweight edge-layer protocol that combines Shamir’s Secret Sharing Scheme (SSS) and Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) for secure and efficient group key distribution among IoT edge devices. ECC (Curve25519) is used for secure peer-to-peer sharing, with key sizes that are 12 times smaller and operations that are four times faster than traditional RSA. SSS splits the group key into shares and reconstructs it using a threshold, reducing computation and eliminating the need for full key generation on each device. It also removes single points of failure because no device retains the complete key. ECC enables secure peer-to-peer exchange of encrypted shares using ChaCha20 for efficient confidentiality. ChaCha20 enhances encryption speed, performing nearly three times faster than AES on resource-constrained devices. To ensure shared authenticity and detect tampering, HMAC is applied. This offers a lightweight integrity check suitable for constrained IoT devices. The proposed protocol is quantitatively validated through entropy and key-strength analysis, confirming 128-bit equivalent security and O(n) scalability up to 100 nodes. Communication-cost evaluation demonstrates low bandwidth overhead, while formal verification using BAN Logic and ProVerif under the Dolev–Yao adversarial model establishes confidentiality, authenticity, and forward secrecy with provable resilience against replay, impersonation, and man-in-the-middle attacks.

Abstract:

This study introduces a novel system called Generalized Joint Permutation-Carrier Index Modulation Based MC-DCSK (GJPC-IM-MCDCSK) aimed at enhancing energy efficiency, spectral efficacy, and data transmission rates of GCI-DCSK technology by generating and utilizing permuted forms of the reference chaotic series with quasi-orthogonal properties to distribute the modulated bits across each operational carrier. Furthermore, rather than employing correlation detection, the receiving end of the proposed system utilizes greedy detection to streamline the process. Evaluating the data rate, spectral efficiency, and complexity of the proposed GJPC-IM-MCDCSK system against GCI-DCSK, CI-DCSK1, and MC-DCSK technologies illustrates the superior performance of the recommended design. To illustrate the proposed design's superiority, the simulated Bit Error Rate (BER) performance is evaluated for the GJPC-IM-MCDCSK scheme and compared with the GCI-DCSK, CI-DCSK1, and MC-DCSK systems under AWGN and multipath Rayleigh fading channels.

Abstract:

This study aims to develop and investigate several classes of interval-valued sets within the framework of Interval-Valued topology. Interval-Valued sets, originally proposed by Yao and later enriched through various generalizations, provide a more expressive structure for modelling uncertainty than classical or fuzzy sets. In this paper, we introduce and analyse different categories of Interval-Valued sets, particularly focusing on their weak and strong forms, and we explore how these forms influence topological behaviour. Special emphasis is placed on the study of minimal and maximal Interval-Valued open sets, pre-open sets, and semi-open sets, which serve as extremal elements in the lattice of Interval-Valued topologies. We also examine the interrelationships between various kinds of Interval-Valued closed sets and their generalized counterparts, thereby clarifying how such structures are embedded within the hierarchy of Interval-Valued topology. By establishing these connections, we provide a deeper understanding of the internal organisation of generalized closed sets in this setting. To support the theoretical results, illustrative and carefully constructed examples are presented, which highlight both the necessity and the distinctions among the introduced concepts. Overall, this work contributes to the enrichment of Interval-Valued topological theory and lays the foundation for further applications in mathematical modelling and decision-making under uncertainty.

Abstract:

This study presents the design and evaluation of an ergonomic chair developed for Malaysian residential users through the integration of anthropometric data, ergonomic assessment, and experimental validation. Anthropometric dimensions from the Malaysian Anthropometric Database were applied to determine seat height, depth, width, and backrest dimensions suitable for local body proportions. Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA) was conducted using digital manikins representing the 5th, 50th, and 95th percentiles to identify postures with minimal musculoskeletal risk. A 3D CAD model was created in SolidWorks, and finite element analysis (FEA) was performed to evaluate structural integrity under a 150 kg load. A full-scale prototype was validated using electromyography (EMG) testing involving 20 participants of varying height, weight, and body mass index (BMI). Root Mean Square (RMS) values of muscle activation were analyzed to assess comfort and fatigue. Results showed a RULA score of 2, strong structural stability, and low EMG activity, indicating minimal muscle strain. The integration of anthropometry, simulation, and EMG validation confirms the chair’s ergonomic suitability and establishes a framework for locally optimized furniture design.

Abstract:

The primary factor influencing the wireless sensor network (WSN) is the energy consumption of the sensor node. One of the key factors influencing WSN energy consumption is the high power consumption and packet delivery ratio needed for WSN processing. The suggested Energy Efficient Spherical Grid Routing (EESGR) protocol reduces the node's energy consumption to meet the requirements. To choose the cluster heads, the WSN is clustered into a collection of nodes using the pillar k-means clustering method defined in the proposed protocol. One optimization algorithm inspired by nature, the ant lion, is used to create cluster heads for assessing energy consumption in WSNs. The behavior concept of the ant lion is utilized for choosing the best nodes for the selection of the cluster head. The multi-tier spherical grid routing proposed in the paper is used to grid the cluster head generated by the ant-lion optimization algorithm to evaluate the total energy consumed for processing the sensor network. The overall performance of this method is evaluated in Network Simulator 2 (NS2). The proposed method improves performance in throughput, end-to-end delay, packet delivery ratio, and energy consumption compared to the existing techniques.

THEORETICAL AND ALGORITHMIC ANALYSIS OF FAIR DOMINATION AND SUBDIVISION NUMBERS FOR CYCLE AND CIRCULANT GRAPHS

Abstract:

This study explores a specialized type of domination in graphs known as fair domination. A fair dominating set (FDS) in a graph R is defined as a dominating set in which every non-member vertex is adjacent to an equal number of vertices within the set. The minimum size of such a set is referred to as the fair domination number, denoted γ_fd (R). We further examine how structural modifications, specifically edge subdivisions, affect this parameter. The fair domination subdivision number, denoted 〖Sd〗_(γ_fd)^+ (R) (or 〖Sd〗_(γ_fd)^- (R)), captures the smallest number of edge subdivisions required to increase or decrease the fair domination number, respectively. Our work focuses on computing these values for two graph families: cycles C_n (with n≥3) and Circulant graphs C_n (1,k),k=2,3. Through detailed analysis, we demonstrate how edge subdivisions impact the fairness condition in domination. To systematically explore fair domination in graphs, we adopt an algorithmic approach that facilitates efficient identification of fair dominating sets and computation of related parameters. Algorithmic techniques have been pivotal in graph theory, particularly in the study of domination-related problems. We introduce an efficient algorithm for identifying fair dominating sets and determining the fair domination number in Circulant graphs of the form〖 C〗_n(1,2) and C_n (1,3), offering insights into their underlying combinatorial structure.

ENHANCING IOT SECURITY USING AN INTEGRATED BAGGED-LSTM AND GRADIENT BOOSTING ENSEMBLE TECHNIQUE

Authors:

Abstract:

The Internet of Things (IoT) links billions of devices, boosts innovation, shares information effortlessly, and is reshaping various industries. The most common Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks target all layers in the IoT architecture. Even though easy to execute, these sorts of attacks may severely harm targeted systems and networks. This Novel hybrid model uses Bagged Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Gradient Boosting (GB) to address large dimensionality, various feature dimensions, low classification accuracy, and high false positive rates in raw traffic data to improve IoT security against DDoS attacks. To reduce input information redundancy, the Boruta-Pearson Feature Selector (BPFS) gathers key features as model inputs. The Bagged-LSTM design minimises variance to detect anomalies, while Gradient Boosting improves prediction accuracy. The CIC-ISD2017 and CIC DDoS2019 datasets were used to test the hybrid model. Experimental results show that the recommended model outperforms current models with an accuracy of 99%. It is impossible to completely protect your server from these threats, but by using the techniques discussed here, these attacks can be prevented, and the server can focus on fulfilling legitimate requests rather than unauthentic ones.

Abstract:

This study investigates the enhancement of flexural strength of high-performance concrete (HPC) beams using basalt fiber reinforced polymer (BFRP) embedded internally at different depths. Four types of beam samples were tested: BFRP placed directly on the bottom (CB0), and BFRP placed at 0.75 cm (CB0.75), 1.25 cm (CB1.25), and 2.25 cm (CB2.25) from the bottom. The concrete mixture, which resembled ultra-high-performance concrete, included binder, fine and coarse aggregates, glass powder, microsilica, and a plasticizer. The results showed that BFRP significantly improved the flexural strength and ductility compared to the control samples without BFRP reinforcement. Optimum performance was achieved by placing the BFRP at 1.25 cm from the bottom (CB1.25), which demonstrated an increase in flexural strength by 1088% (653 kN/m2) and displacement by 0.225 mm compared to the control samples, indicating a balanced distribution of strength and stress. Large distances (e.g., CB2.25) reduce the effectiveness, highlighting the importance of BFRP proximity to tension zones.

Abstract:

The present study explores the feasibility of utilizing Bergamot Peel Oil (BPO) as a renewable alternative to conventional diesel fuel in a compression ignition engine. Before engine testing, the physicochemical properties of BPO were tested. FTIR analysis confirmed the presence of oxygenated functional groups such as esters and carbonyl compounds, while CHNS analysis revealed a significant oxygen content, supporting improved combustion characteristics. GC-MS analysis identified major fatty acid methyl esters contributing to the high volatility and calorific value of BPO. Experimental investigations were conducted at varying blending ratios (BPO10, BPO20, BPO30, BPO40, and BPO50) without any engine modifications, evaluating performance, combustion, and emission parameters against baseline diesel. Results indicated an improvement in brake thermal efficiency (BTE) by 3–6% for BPO30–BPO40 blends, while brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) reduced by up to 9% for higher blends, attributed to better energy content and oxygenation. In-cylinder analysis revealed increased peak pressure and rate of pressure rise (RoPR) with BPO addition, with BPO50 recording the highest peak due to superior oxidation and localized high temperatures. Ignition delay showed a slight increase for higher blends due to lower cetane number, though overall combustion duration remained comparable to diesel. On the emissions front, smoke opacity was significantly reduced by 14–17% for BPO50 owing to enhanced soot oxidation. Carbon monoxide (CO) and unburned hydrocarbons (HC) decreased by 8–12% across all blends, while NOx emissions exhibited a 6–10% rise for higher blends due to an increase in in-cylinder temperatures and oxygen availability. The findings suggest that BPO, with its oxygenated nature and favorable volatility, can partially replace diesel fuel without major engine modifications, particularly in blends up to BPO40, ensuring improved efficiency and cleaner combustion.

POSITIVE SOLUTIONS OF THE SYSTEM OF FIRST-ORDER DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS BY RUNGE-KUTTA METHOD FOURTH ORDER

Authors:

Ahmed. O. M. Abubaker

https://doi.org/10.26782/jmcms.2025.12.00008

Abstract:

The Runge-Kutta method, and especially its fourth-order variant (RK4), is perhaps the most widely adopted method for solving ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and their systems. This paper deals specifically with the RK4 method to explain a system of first-order differential equations, and the ability of the method to converge and stabilize positive solutions. It is well known that standard RK4 is both accurate and stable, but to particularly maintain positivity of solutions, where the model represents physical quantities that must be non-negative, such as populations or concentrations, often requires extra techniques. This paper discusses theoretically the RK4 method and systems, their execution, the need for retention of positivity, and methodologies for retention of positivity. Several illustrative examples are included to demonstrate the application of the method and the difficulty of maintaining positivity as well.

Abstract:

Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) techniques is efficient technique implemented high photovoltaic power generation in modern power system. This paper will present a MPPT strategy with a Seagull Optimization Algorithm (SOA)-based strategy and high-gain Voltage-Multiplier Coupled Quadric Boost Converter to implement a high-efficiency power extraction in PV systems. The SOA takes advantage of the hunting nature of seagulls so that the operating point of the PV array can be optimised and that the global maximum power point can be reached within seconds even in dynamic irradiance and temperature conditions. Combining this smart MPPT approach with a high-gain quadratic boost converter can achieve large voltage step-up on low PV input to decrease converter stress and increase energy harvesting. Through simulation, the proposed method proves to have a higher tracking speed, efficiency, and stability relative to existing ones (Perturb and Observe) (P&O) and Incremental Conductance (IncCond). The SOA-based MPPT is able to effectively prevent local maxima under partial shading conditions to generate optimal power extraction. The offered system demonstrates the high increase in the general energy efficiency, and it can be applied to both grid-connected and stand-alone PV applications. This combination of smart optimization and sophisticated converter design offers a potential remedy on the extraction of the best performance of a PV system under real operating conditions.
