abstract = {Tungsten trioxide-(WO<inf>3</inf>) is one of the utmost appropriate inorganic electrochromic materials. WO<inf>3</inf> nanostructures are becoming increasingly prevalent in a diverse array of electrochromic (EC) device applications, as it offers substantially larger active response area, which leads to an increase in colour contrast, according to research. The novel technique of powder synthesis and material preparation has gained interest as materials science advances. Recently, the hydrothermal approach has emerged as a viable liquid phase preparation methodology as it provides several benefits. In this view it becomes essential to deepen the understanding of hydrothermal synthesis towards carving WO<inf>3</inf> nanostructures to foster electrochromic state-of-the-art. In this review analysis of hydrothermal synthesis towards sculpturing various WO<inf>3</inf> nanostructures such as nanowire, nanotubes, nanoflower, Nano tree etc. for modest electrochromism has been portrayed. Moreover, practicality in role of various hydrothermally synthesized WO<inf>3</inf> nanostructures for different applications has also been discussed.},

abstract = {Electric vehicles (EVs) are pivotal in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and achieving sustainable transportation goals. However, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), the primary energy source for EVs, face critical thermal management, safety, and long-term efficiency challenges. This study proposes an integrated thermal and battery management system that combines a water–ethylene glycol-based liquid cooling mechanism with high-conductivity copper tubing to enhance LIB performance, longevity, and safety. Through COMSOL multiphysics simulations, this study examines LIB thermal behavior under varying operational conditions. The results indicate a 20% reduction in temperature peaks, with the battery maintaining an optimal temperature range of 15°C to 35°C, thus mitigating the risks of thermal runaway. Experimental validation using infrared thermography and thermal imaging confirms the system's efficiency, showing a maximum recorded battery temperature of 43.48°C under load conditions, significantly lower than unmanaged battery systems. Beyond thermal management, this work integrates advanced battery management strategies, including state-of-charge estimation, predictive fault diagnostics, active energy optimization, and cell balancing. Experimental analysis further reveals that the proposed system improves heat dissipation, resulting in a more uniform temperature distribution across the battery pack and reduced internal resistance-related losses. Additionally, infrared thermographic measurements demonstrate a 2°C to 3°C temperature uniformity improvement across battery cells, preventing localized overheating. This novel approach bridges the gap between cutting-edge cooling techniques and intelligent battery management, offering a scalable and cost-effective solution for next-generation EV battery systems. The findings have significant implications for enhancing battery safety, improving operational efficiency, extending battery lifespan, and accelerating global EV adoption.},

abstract = {The depletion of fossil fuel sources is accelerated by the growing demand for energy worldwide, particularly in developing nations. This highlights the pressing need for sustainable and renewable energy alternatives. Using a techno-economic analysis, this study assesses hybrid renewable energy systems (HRESs) for electricity production, emphasizing the resolution of issues caused by the intermittent nature of renewable energy sources. Using HOMER Pro software, a feasibility study is carried out to evaluate a community's energy requirements in India. Reducing the Net Present Cost (NPC), cutting energy costs, and optimizing the use of renewable energy sources are some of the goals that drive the system's design optimization. According to the findings, the most economical HRES configuration consists of an 800-kW wind turbine (WT), 400 batteries, a 150-kW power converter, a 50 kW electrolyzer, and a 20 kg hydrogen storage tank. This optimum configuration yields a Renewable Fraction (RF) of 99.7%, a Cost of Energy (COE) of $0.239 per kilowatt-hour, and a minimum NPC of $3.42 million. It guarantees a dependable power supply to fulfil 99.7% of the site's daily energy requirement of 3379.0 kWh, with the electricity produced coming almost entirely from renewable sources.},

abstract = {Thermoelectric generators (TEGs) are solid-state devices that convert waste heat into electrical energy using the Seebeck effect. This paper presents a TEG system's design, fabrication, and performance evaluation to recover waste heat for various applications. The system utilizes thermoelectric modules to generate electrical energy from temperature gradients. Experimental results show that the TEG can produce a maximum voltage under a temperature gradient of the hot side and cold side. TEGs convert waste heat directly into electricity using thermoelectric materials, offering a sustainable and maintenance-free energy solution. Recent advancements in material efficiency have improved the figure of merit (ZT), enabling TEGs to power both small devices and larger industrial systems. Their ability to operate without moving parts makes them ideal for low-cost, reliable power generation. TEGs are mainly used to enhance energy efficiency and sustainability in applications ranging from wearable electronics to large-scale waste heat recovery and renewable energy systems.},

abstract = {For precise histopathological image analysis and classification, segmentation is a critical step that must be carried out accurately. Segmentation aids early detection and diagnosis of tumor and cancerous cells. Machine learning and artificial intelligence processes play a vital role in image processing applications. In this proposed work, the nature-inspired Whale Optimization Algorithm is used for the segmentation of whole slide images through multi-objective image thresholding. The images are subjected to initial pre-processing to eliminate disturbance and enhancement, followed by the application of the best threshold value. Various histopathology images are examined to validate the efficiency and versatility of the proposed methodology. A Dice coefficient of 50.8, a Jaccard index of 51.33, a Precision of 51.22, a Sensitivity of 71.59, an Accuracy of 91.86, an F-measure of 50.76, and a Specificity of 71.17 were the average results obtained for the tested images using the proposed system. The outcomes are assessed with other common segmentation approaches, validating the algorithm.},

The obtained optimum design has a minimum NPC of $1.48M, a lowest cost of energy (COE) of $0.287 per kilowatt-hour, and a renewable energy fraction (REF) of 92.8%. It can deliver a reliable supply of power, meeting 90% of the daily onsite load requirement of 1625 kWh/day. The electricity at this location is exclusively derived from RES.},
