Machine learning prognosis for condition monitoring of safety-critical systems, such as aircraft engines, continually faces challenges of data unavailability, complexity, and drift. Consequently, this paper overcomes these challenges by introducing adaptive deep transfer learning methodologies, strengthened with robust feature engineering. Initially, data engineering encompassing: (i) principal component analysis (PCA) dimensionality reduction; (ii) feature selection using correlation analysis; (iii) denoising with empirical Bayesian Cauchy prior wavelets; and (iv) feature scaling is used to obtain the required learning representations. Next, an adaptive deep learning model, namely ProgNet, is trained on a source domain with sufficient degradation trajectories generated from PrognosEase, a run-to-fail data generator for health deterioration analysis. Then, ProgNet is transferred to the target domain of obtained degradation features for fine-tuning. The primary goal is to achieve a higher-level generalization while reducing algorithmic complexity, making experiments reproducible on available commercial computers with quad-core microprocessors. ProgNet is tested on the popular New Commercial Modular Aero-Propulsion System Simulation (N-CMAPSS) dataset describing real flight scenarios. To the extent we can report, this is the first time that all N-CMAPSS subsets have been fully screened in such an experiment. ProgNet evaluations with numerous metrics, including the well-known CMAPSS scoring function, demonstrate promising performance levels, reaching 234.61 for the entire test set. This is approximately four times better than the results obtained with the compared conventional deep learning models.

Permanent Ground Deformations (PGD) that follow slope failures caused catastrophic damages on buried pipelines. This paper presents a two-dimensional numerical analysis of the behavior of an 800mm water transport pipeline buried in the Aine-Tine slope (Mila, Algeria) subjected to shallow PGD triggered by the recent earthquake of August 07th, 2020 (M= 4.9). The soil-pipeline interaction was simulated focusing on the effect of (1) the magnitudes of the PGD and (2) the rigidity of the pipeline on the structural response of the pipeline. The pipeline deformations (i.e., translation and ovalization) and radial internal efforts (i.e., axial forces F_A, shear forces F_S, and bending moments M_B) result highlighted that shallow PGD can cause additional loads on pipelines that are proportional to the magnitude of PGD. Moreover, it was found that rigid pipelines are more performant than flexible pipelines. Through a simplified numerical simulation, the study helps engineers and planners to predict the actual causes of pipeline leaks and ruptures leading to severe disruption of their normal operations.

Accessibility of fresh water, the nature’s gift wheels the foremost part of the world economy. The sufficient supplies of water are essential for agriculture, human intake, industry as well as regeneration. The Oued Righ region is located in Algeria’s South-East, specifically in the NorthEast of the Sahara, on the Northern edge of the Grand Erg Oriental and the Southern border of the Aures massif. This area appears as a lower Sahara synclinal basin and is part of a broad North-South trending ditch. It is famous for its date palms, the development of the date culture in this region is attributed not only to the population’s efforts, but above all to the particular climatic conditions, the favorable soil characteristics and the existence of significant groundwater. The aim of this study is to understand the results obtained from using different approaches of water hydrodynamics in the Complex Terminal aquifer. The aquifer’s hydrodynamic characterization was carried out using hydrodynamic parameters and piezometry. As a result, the transmissivity and permeability obtained data using traditional Cooper-Jacob method showed that the flow capacities of the aquifer environment and the productivities of the structures are important in the studied zone where, the highest value of transmissivity equal 2.36× 102-m 2 /sis found in the central part of the study area in El-Meghair. The establishment of piezometric maps reveals a flow direction oriented toward the chott.

The aim of our study is to know the determinants of the processes of selection and orientation of soccer players to playing positions, and for this we used the descriptive approach based on a questionnaire applied to a sample of 30 coaches U15 and U17 of the Regional League of Batna who were selected by random method, and we found that the majority of coaches do not rely on physical and physiological tests and morphological measurements to select and orient players to playing positions, but they are satisfied only with a pedagogical observation through games of selection and orientations, and based on the results of the study, the research group recommended the need to develop a standardized test battery that youth trainers rely on for selection and orientation processes.

The soccer player must be characterized by a high degree of physical fitness to be able to carry out physical, skill and tactical tasks. The maximum aerobic speed is one of the most important fitness requirements that a soccer player needs. The foot is considered the indicator of physical fitness and its first weapon That is why we wanted to stand on the importance of the maximum aerobic speed and its close relationship to determine the playing position of football players under 19 years old, by applying the vameval test on a sample represented in the middle class of the Esperance Barcaforage teams and the Batna University team with an average of 20 players from both teams distributed with 6 players in defense from Each team and 4 players in the middle of each team, the results were as follows: There is no statistically significant difference in the maximum air speed between the playing positions in the middle of the field among the sample members There is no statistically significant difference in the maximum aerobic speed between the playing positions in defense among the sample members.

The current study concerns the use of azeotropic mixtures in single-stage vapor compression refrigeration system configurations to determine the effect of entrainment ratio on the coefficient of performance. Three single-stage vapor compression refrigeration system configurations are used. The effects of condenser and evaporator temperatures on the single-stage refrigeration system are investigated. The used azeotropic mixtures are: R1234yf + R290, R1234yf + R152a, R1234yf + R600a, R134a + R290, R134a + R600a and R1270 + R134a. It is shown that the simulations results are in good agreement with the literature. The R1234yf + R290 mixture in refrigeration cycle give the highest coefficient of performance and entrainment ratio. The coefficient of performance (COP) increases with increasing of entrainment ratio.

This paper is about the study of the well-posedness of a stochastic Cahn-Hilliard equation driven by white noise induced by a Q-Brownian motion. The proof of the existence of a unique global solution relies on the Galerkin method together with a monotonicity method.

Recently, Adaptive Traffic Signal Control (ATSC) in the multi-intersection system is considered as one of the most critical issues in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). Among the proposed AI-based approaches, Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) has been largely applied while showing better performances. This paper proposes a new DRL-based cooperative approach for controlling multiple intersections. The problem is modelled as a Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning (MARL) system, while each agent is trained to select the best action to control an intersection by obtaining information about its local lanes state. The cooperation aspect is manifested in this approach by considering the effect of the state, action and reward of neighbour agents in the process of policy learning. An intersection controller applies a Deep Q-Network (DQN) method, while transferring state, action and reward received from their neighbour agents to its own loss function during the learning process. The experimental results under different scenarios shows that the proposed approach outperforms many state-of-the-art approaches in terms of three metrics: Average Waiting Time (AWT), Average Queue Length (AQL) and Average Emission CO₂ (AEC). In addition, the cooperation between the different trained DRL-based controllers allows the system to continuously learn and improve its performance by interacting with the environment, particularly when the traffic is congested.
