SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing COVID-19, is found in the stool of the infected individuals and eventually ended up at the wastewater treatment plants. Since COVID-19 pandemic started, researchers all around the world have been investigating SARS-CoV-2 in wastewater to understand fate of SARS-CoV-2 and predict a potential outbreak by monitoring wastewater for the detection and […]

In the era of big data, software based on artificial intelligence has greatly improved the quality of people’s lives. Although data is not a scarce resource, the data we collected are usually incomplete due to many reasons, i.e. they contain some missing values. Simply deleting these missing data will not only cause great waste, but […]

Additive manufacturing is rapidly employing the Internet of Things and cyber-physical systems to facilitate its reliability and relieve human supervision. However, with 5G network and cloud computing intertwining with the physical machines placed locally, the service is vulnerable to prospective cyberattacks. Various researchers have already stressed the urgent need to ensure the users’ and businesses’ […]

Personal protective equipment (PPE) for essential workers in flammable environment requires two essential traits: fire resistance (FR) and fitting comfort. The fitting comfort is especially an issue for women firefighters, whose protective clothing are not appropriately catered. Elastic fibers in sportswear, such as Lycra, offer superb fitting and comfort, but their FR version is commercially […]
