Summary: The study investigates the impact of hybrid nanoparticles on flow and heat transfer over a stretching/shrinking disk. It reveals that dual solutions are possible for both shrinking and stretching cases, while a unique solution exists for the static surface. Moreover, the skin friction coefficient is optimal on the static surface, and heat transfer rate increases with the addition of hybrid nanoparticles.

Summary: This study analyzes the momentum and thermic aspects of MHD Ellis ternary nanomaterial embedded with dust particles using a stretchable Riga plate. The flow equations are converted into dimensionless nonlinear ODEs to obtain graphical results. The study investigates the velocity and temperature profiles, as well as evaluates the Nusselt number and skin friction. The findings show that the thermal transport performance of the trihybrid nanophase is better than that of the dusty phase, with rotational and volume fraction dust particles parameters leading to increased temperature distribution.

Summary: The two-dimensional laminar boundary layer flow and heat characteristics of silver water based nanofluid with buoyancy effect over porous shrinking/stretching sheet have been investigated. Numerical investigation shows the existence of triple solutions within certain parameter ranges, and the stability analysis confirms the reliability of these solutions. The stable solutions indicate that skin friction decreases and enhances with increased suction and nanoparticles volume fractions, respectively.

Summary: This study presents a novel method for optimizing energy trading within microgrids by using a hybrid of particle swarm optimization and gravitational search algorithms. The proposed approach promotes cooperative energy trading among microgrids and the main grid, considering network constraints and the uncertainty of renewable energy. Simulation results show that this method maximizes renewable energy utilization, reduces load burden on the main grid, and significantly decreases energy costs.

Summary: In this study, the effect of mesh sensitivity on the hole-flanging process was investigated by varying the mesh layouts and punch surface meshing techniques. The results showed that the punch displacement and mesh parameters have significant effects on the wall thickness distributions and forming load profiles. Additionally, calibrating the simulation model's stiffness with the experimental peak load through matching the simulated peak load with the experimental peak under stability conditions was recommended.

Summary: This paper establishes a three-dimensional coupled train-subgrade-wind dynamics model, and investigates the aerodynamic load variation and flow field mechanisms when high-speed trains transit different types of subgrade-cutting transition sections in crosswind conditions. The results indicate that the aerodynamic performance of the train deteriorates in these transition sections, and the aerodynamic load of the head car varies in different operating scenarios.

Summary: In the sample survey theory, accurate estimation of parameters is essential for survey practitioners. This paper suggests optimal classes of estimators by modifying conventional estimators under stratified ranked set sampling (SRSS). The suggested estimators have been shown to outperform traditional estimators, particularly regression (BLU) estimators, both theoretically and experimentally.
