Vibration Analysis of Rotating Tapered Timoshenko Beams by a New Finite Element Model by Bulent Yardimoglu

“…A new finite element model is developed and subsequently used for transverse vibrations of tapered Timoshenko beams with rectangular cross-section. The displacement functions of the finite element are derived from the coupled displacement field (the polynomial coefficients of transverse displacement and cross-sectional rotation are coupled through consideration of the differential equations of equilibrium) approach by considering the tapering functions of breadth and depth of the beam. …”

Two Weighted Fuzzy Goal Programming Methods to Solve Multiobjective Goal Programming Problem by Mousumi Gupta, Debasish Bhattacharjee

“…Here, the relative weights represent the relative importance of the objective functions. The proposed methods involve one additional goal constraint by introducing only underdeviation variables to the fuzzy operator λ (resp., 1-λ), which is more efficient than some well-known existing methods such as those proposed by Zimmermann, Hannan, Tiwari, and Mohamed. …”

Explainable AI-driven assessment of hydro climatic interactions shaping river discharge dynamics in a monsoonal basin by Prashant Parasar, Akhouri Pramod Krishna

“…The main findings of this study are (1) KAN demonstrated high predictive performance with root mean squared error (RMSE) values ranging from 42.7 to 58.3 m3/s, Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE) between 0.80 and 0.87, mean absolute error (MAE) between 28.9 to 52.7 and R2 values between 0.84 and 0.90 across stations. (2) SHAP based feature contribution analysis identified Relative humidity (hurs), specific humidity (huss), and temperature (tas) as key predictors, while (pr) showed limited contribution due to spatial inherent inconsistencies in GCM precipitation data. (3) The bootstrapped SHAP distributions highlighted substantial variability in feature importance, particularly for humidity variables, revealing station specific uncertainty patterns in model interpretation. (4) The KAN framework results indicate strong temporal alignment and physical realism, confirming KAN’s robustness in capturing seasonal discharge dynamics and extreme flow events under monsoon influence environments. (5) In this study KAN with SHAP (SHapley additive exPlanations) is implemented for hydrological modeling under monsoon-influenced and data-limited regions such as SRB, offering improved accuracy, functional precision and efficiency compared to traditional models. …”
