A Comparative Study of Pectin Green Extraction Methods from Apple Waste: Characterization and Functional Properties by Marwa Hanafy Mahmoud, Ferial Mohamed Abu-Salem, Dina El-Sayed Helmy Azab

“…The extraction of pectin by organic acid mixture maximized the galacturonic acid index to 87.58%;. Also, it was changed from structural into: compacted, multilaminated, and flaky surface compared to the other samples (more porous and hollow opening structural) as well as increased stability of pectin particles in colloids as a result of increasing the charge on particles to -59.42, beside its higher thermal stability of pectin behaviors, which reflected on improving all functional properties compared to the other methods. …”

Bearing Fault Feature Extraction Method Based on Adaptive Time-Varying Filtering Empirical Mode Decomposition and Singular Value Decomposition Denoising by Xuezhuang E, Wenbo Wang, Hao Yuan

“…Then, the bearing signal is divided into a number of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) using TVF-EMD in order to reduce the nonlinearity and non-stationary characteristics of the fault signal. An index for the envelope fault information energy ratio (EFIER) is created to overcome the drawback of there being too many IMF components after TVF-EMD decomposition. …”

Mode-Dependent Loss Equalized Few-Mode Fiber Photonic Lantern by Yingxuan Li, Senyu Zhang, Zhiyong Zhao, Jing Liu, Zhuyixiao Liu, Ming Tang

“…In the process of fusion splicing between the tail fiber of photonic lantern and the few-mode fiber, by controlling the fusion splicing parameters, a refractive index (RI) modified waveguide is formed at the fusion splicing region, through which the fundamental mode will have higher attenuation than the higher-order modes, which enables us to control the attenuation of different modes, so that we can customize the unconventional photonic lantern with different differential mode attenuation (DMA). …”
