This study presents a novel and comprehensive numerical analysis of buoyancy-induced magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) convection within a porous cavity filled with a CuO–water nanofluid, considering the combined influence of an external magnetic field and heat generation due to an exothermic chemical reaction. The findings offer new insights into coupled magneto-thermo-chemical transport phenomena in nanofluid-saturated porous media.

The derived principal transport equations are discretized and solved through a Galerkin extension of the finite element framework, which is validated against benchmark data.

On this basis, there is rising emphasis on biodegradable natural dyes. Natural dyes are perceived to provide functionality beyond mere appearance. This research investigates the multifaceted sustainable dyeing of nylon using the aqueous extract of Babool bark (<em>Acacia nilotica</em>). It has focused its attention on chromatic parameters, fabric properties, the UV protection factor, and antibacterial activity. The variables associated with the process of dyeing included time, temperature, pH, and Material: Liquor (M: L) ratio, which have been systematically optimized. Optimum conditions identified at 100 °C, pH 4.8, 60 min, and an M:L ratio of 1:30. In such conditions, nylon fabric showed improved coloration with greater K/S values, CIELAB color coordinates, and good shade repeatability. SEM studies revealed even deposition of tannins and natural colorants, while increased temperature resulted in increased fabric surface roughness and degradation due to thermal effects. The FTIR revealed good hydrogen bonding interactions between the dye and nylon polymer chains. The colored textile demonstrated good UV protection factor, which improved from 12.1 to 87.62 UPF values, meeting specific demands for high UV protective application in functional textile products for protective and healthcare apparel due to its phenolic compounds found in Babool bark. Even in the absence of diffusion inhibition zones, surface bacterial resistances were demonstrated in <em>Bacillus spp.</em> and <em>P. pseudomonas</em>. The dyed fabric has good color fastness properties to washing, perspiration, and rubbing tests, though light fastness was moderate, which in turn could be improved through effective mordanting process. Mechanical strength and air-permeability values also stayed within acceptable ranges.

The concrete compressive strength established using concrete casting and curing is labour-intensive, time-consuming, and delays quality evaluation until the completion of the curing period. Predictive models bridge this gap by evaluating the compressive strength based on various parameters, assisting engineers to optimise designs and fine-tune mixtures proactively. In this research, the compressive strength of concrete containing corn cob ash (CCA) and gum Arabic (GA) was predicted using artificial neural network (ANN), extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), k-nearest neighbour (KNN), and stacked ensemble models. Subsequently, Taylor analysis was used for visual comparison of multiple model outputs while SHapley Additive exPlanation (SHAP) was synchronised using the best performing model. Surrogate, accumulate local effect (ALE), Cook's distance, as well as residual and leverage values were also applied to capture the simplified explanation of the model features. The results showed that the XGBoost model achieved lowest mean absolute error (MAE) of 0.292 MPa under training stage. The ANN model was the best model during the testing phase. The SHAP parameters identified age as the most critical parameter, contributing towards model prediction followed by GA and cement. The SHAP results suggested that increasing such critical parameters could achieve high model prediction. The global surrogate model analysis revealed that the decision tree (DT) (depth = 8) was the best surrogate model, offering the highest R², lowest root mean square error (RMSE), and ShapGAD values, while exhibiting five variables with significant feature importance values.
