    Abstract Swift development of technology for monitoring complex structures demands major attention on the precision of damage detection methods. The early detection of any type of deterioration or degradation of structures is of paramount importance to avoid sudden catastrophic failure. It warns users about the impending state of the system. At the initiation of a crack or some other system faults, the system may generate a time-varying state of crack under ambient vibration. It represents the nonlinear breathing phenomena of crack. An assessment of this degree of nonlinearity can be utilized for the detection, localization, and quantification of breathing cracks. Appropriate modeling of such cracks is thus necessary to capture distinctive nonlinear features. Recognizing this importance, various methods of modeling and nonlinear system identification which have been employed in the past for the detection of breathing crack are reviewed. The present study also explores some of the available vibration as well as acoustic-based damage identification techniques, chronologically connecting their evolutions. It summarizes the advantages and limitations of the methods to inspect potential future applications. The future scopes drawn from this review are highlighted to pave the path of wide-spread applications of nonlinear features of crack.

    Abstract We analyse the implications of reverse migration on export quality upgrading by the origin country. Other than a favourable endowment shock by raising the native country's labour supply, reverse migration cause loss of remittances from unskilled emigrants and capital investments made by skilled emigrants. Resulting loss of national income and correspondingly domestic demand affect local factor prices and consequently the competitiveness of exports, when the economy produces non-traded goods. In a competitive general equilibrium model of a small open economy, we establish that reverse migration of unskilled workers will cause upgrading of quality of the skill-based export good only if higher qualities require more capital relative to skilled labour. Reverse migration of skilled workers has just the opposite effect. Lower contribution to capital investment thereby lower capital stock and lower repatriation of returns to such investment further magnify such effects. Finally, the results are robust to a more generalised demand structure.

    Abstract Corynebacterium glutamicumis is a Gram + ve, non-pathogenic, non-motile, rod-shaped soil bacterium isolated in the 1950s as an overproducer of l-glutamic acid. Since then several trials have been made to develop new strains which could able to meet the market demands for l-glutamic acid as well as a few other l-amino acids. It produces l-glutamic acid from 2-oxoglutarate in an NADPH dependent pathway. Few transporters including MscCGs have been identified, and characterized in different strains of Corynebacterium glutamicum. Biotin limitation and penicillin treatments trigger extracellular l-glutamic acid export. Fatty acid ester surfactants impart role in l-glutamic acid export even in presence of biotin.

    Abstract A quantum neural network (QNN) is interpreted today as any quantum circuit with trainable continuous parameters. This work builds on previous works by the authors and addresses QNN for image classification with Novel Enhanced Quantum Representation of (NEQR) processed classical data where Principal component analysis (PCA) and Projected Quantum Kernel features (PQK) were investigated previously by the authors as a path to quantum advantage for the same classical dataset. For each of these cases the Fashion-MNIST dataset was downscaled using PCA to convert into quantum data where the classical NN easily outperformed the QNN. However, we demonstrated quantum advantage by using PQK where quantum models achieved more than ~90% accuracy surpassing their classical counterpart on the same training dataset as in the first case. In this current work, we use the same dataset fed into a QNN and compare that with performance of a classical NN model. We built an NEQR model circuit to pre-process the same data and feed the images into the QNN. Our results showed marginal improvements (only about ~5.0%) where the QNN performance with NEQR exceeded the performance of QNN without NEQR. We conclude that given the computational cost and the massive circuit depth associated with running NEQR, the advantage offered by this specific Quantum Image Processing (QIMP) algorithm is questionable at least for classical image dataset. No actual quantum computing hardware platform exists today that can support the circuit depth needed to run NEQR even for the reduced image sizes of our toy classical dataset.

    Abstract Inter-morph pollen transfer and its dependence on herkogamy and reciprocity are not completely understood in species with stigma-height dimorphism. We asked whether total stigmatic pollen loads, inter-morph fraction of pollen load and reproductive success differed between morphs in Jasminum malabaricum, a species exhibiting stigma-height dimorphism. We tested whether higher herkogamy and reciprocity resulted in higher inter-morph pollen deposition and reproductive success. We quantified individual-level estimates of herkogamy, reciprocity, total stigmatic pollen load, inter-morph stigmatic pollen fraction and fruit set for both morphs in naturally occurring populations of J. malabaricum. Total pollen load was higher in the long-styled morph, inter-morph pollen fraction was higher in the short-styled morph, but fruit set did not differ between morphs. Higher herkogamy resulted in a higher inter-morph fraction of pollen load and fruit set in the long-styled morph of one population. In the other population, only reciprocity was found to be related to inter-morph pollen deposition. This study is the first to quantify and report natural inter-morph stigmatic pollen load in a species with stigma-height dimorphism. Morph-specific differences in pollen load were similar to patterns commonly observed in heterostylous species. The results highlight the importance of both herkogamy and reciprocity in facilitating inter-morph pollen transfer. Population-specific patterns indicate that local environmental factors determine the relative functional importance of herkogamy and reciprocity.

    Abstract The present report examines the utility and exactness of time-propagators derived from Fer expansion (FE). While the mathematical intricacies of the FE scheme are well established, the operational aspects of the same in time-evolution studies remain less explored and authenticated in physical problems of relevance. Through suitable examples, the operational inconsistencies observed in time-evolution studies based on the FE scheme are identified and corroborated through rigorous comparisons with simulations emerging from exact numerical methods. The limitations outlined seriously undermine the advantages associated with the FE scheme over other existing analytic methods.
