Web apps hold important information, such as login tokens and individual data, and cybercriminals repeatedly target attackers. Cross-site scripting is one of the most frequent vulnerabilities in web apps. Several techniques and patents are used to mitigate these vulnerabilities. Several 100 articles from a review of research papers published between 2005 and 2023 were considered. This paper reviewed different techniques Read More

Seaweeds, macroscopic algae known for their diverse applications across industries such as agriculture, biomedicine, and personal care, pose challenges in underwater detection due to the lack of suitable image datasets. Underwater photography is often hindered by light fluctuations and artificial light-induced haze and noise, complicating accurate object recognition. To address these challenges, this study leverages openl Read More

BackgroundWhen computerized numerical control (CNC) machine tools are working, the electric spindle generates serious heat, which can easily cause the thermal elongation of the spindle and generate thermal errors. Designing cooling devices to control the generation of thermal errors in the spindle and utilizing thermal error compensation techniques for error compensation are essential for improving machining quality a Read More

IntroductionThe existence of substantial amounts of comparatively unused material inside a certain section indicates a deficiency in resource utilization. The existence of stress concentrations leads to a decrease in both the rigidity and durability of the component.MethodsUsing finite element analysis (FEA), additive manufacturing (AM), and topology optimization (TO) together in this work led to a new patent for makin Read More

BackgroundRobots for pipeline inspection are frequently employed in long-distance oil, wastewater, and natural gas pipelines.

Research on pipeline inspection robots can be advanced by examining their current stage of development. Additionally, pipeline inspection robots ma Read More

BackgroundWith ageing, the population, and the increasing number of people with compromised immunity, environmental problems are becoming increasingly severe. Infants and older people are greatly affected by respiratory airway blockages, such as phlegm accumulation leading to poor breathing or foreign bodies entering the body, thereby, increasingly complicating respiratory infectious diseases, and raising the deman Read More

IntroductionAs an efficient energy transfer technology, the gas wave ejector (GWE) holds several patents poised to address the challenges of low-carbon energy. These patents find applications in numerous fields. Traditional axial-flow GWE patents encounter limitations under certain application conditions, whereas radial-flow GWE patents offer an effective solution to these issues. However, the mechanisms behind the Read More

Diamond, with its unparalleled combination of physical and chemical attributes, occupies a critical role in future technological domains; yet, the caliber of its surface quality is decisively linked to its performance within advanced applications.

BackgroundSince the first industrial robots were created in the middle of the last century, robotics has shown strong growth prospects. Robotics has developed rapidly over time and is being used in more and more areas. Because of the need to minimize impact forces during robot movement, traditional rigid robots are no longer sufficient, flexible joints are more adaptable to the environment due to their adjustable Read More

IntroductionAn optimized support vector machine prediction model (SVM) with fuzzy information granulation (FIG) is established for surface prediction in this paper. Based on the measured data, cubic spline interpolation was processed and FIG approach was applied to granulate the surface settlement parameters into fuzzy particles Low, R and Up, and the particles are used to represent the range of the measured da Read More

Superhydrophobic surfaces have great application prospects due to their unique surface-wetting characteristics. However, superhydrophobic surfaces' micro-nano binary rough structure and low surface energy components are easily damaged or lost by wear and grease, which affects their durability and limits their practical application, so it is of great significance to study the durability of superhydrophobic surfaces. Th Read More

BackgroundMost of the patients with limb paralysis caused by stroke and traumatic brain injury are unable to take care of themselves, which not only causes great physical and psychological stress to the patients but also poses a heavy burden on their families and society. The global population is entering the aging phase. The number and proportion of older people is increasing in almost every country in the world. Po Read More
