Smart Cities Threat Intelligence Driven by Artificial Intelligence for Enhanced Cyber Resilience Using Federated Learning MD. Tanweer Alam, B V Krishnaveni, M. Anandh Babu, Mohhamied Husaein Sallaah, Avvari Pavithra, Aanandha Saravanan K 2025 International Conference on Computational Innovations and Engineering Sustainability Iccies 2025, 2025 Smart cities rely on interconnected technologies, making them vulnerable to sophisticated cyber threats. Integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) with threat intelligence enhances cyber resilience by enabling proactive security measures. However, existing methods often suffer from centralized data processing, raising privacy concerns and limiting real-time adaptability. To address these issues, this study proposes a Federated Transfer Learning for Adaptive Threat Intelligence (FTL-ATI) framework, which leverages Federated Learning (FL) to ensure decentralized data security while utilizing transfer learning to enhance threat detection efficiency across diverse smart city environments. The proposed framework enables collaborative learning among multiple nodes without sharing raw data, improving threat identification and response times. Experimental results demonstrate that FTL-ATI enhances cyber resilience by achieving higher detection accuracy, reducing false positives, and ensuring real-time adaptability to evolving cyber threats. This approach significantly strengthens smart city cybersecurity, making infrastructures more resilient against emerging cyberattacks while maintaining privacy and efficiency.
Investigation and performance analysis of eco-friendly coco fiber concrete hybridized with CNT blend Anandh Babu Malayali, Venkatesh R, A.H. Seikh, A. Iqbal Heliyon, 2024 With the development of the technical trend, concrete using waste alternate material instead of sand material found economic potential for good structural behaviour. Besides, the susceptible crack, low strength-to-weight ratio, and low compressive strength are the reasons for shrinkage. Due to this reason, the investigation aims to limit the shrinkage under live load and increase the compression and flexural strength by the introduction of coconut waste chopped fiber (wCF), waste fly ash (wFA), and carbon nanotube powder (CNT) blended with conventional Portland paste. The developed concrete consists of 5 wt% wCF, 10 wt% wFA, and 0, 5, 10, and 15 wt% of CNT and is subjected to X-ray diffraction analysis, bulk density, compression and flexural strength, and water absorption studies. The X-ray diffraction pattern revealed the wCF, wFA, CNT, and matrix compositions. The concrete developed with 5 wt% wCF, 10 wt% wFA, and 15 wt% CNT cured within 28 days recorded maximum behaviour of compression strength (47 ± 1.8 MPa), flexural strength (4.9 ± 0.19 MPa), and water absorption of (2.8 ± 0.05 %).
Hybridization of concrete by the inclusions of kaolin, alumina and silica fume: Performance evaluation Anandh Babu Malayali, Venkatesh R, Sulaiman Ali Alharbi, M.A. Kalam Heliyon, 2024 Concrete is the prime source, which fulfils the applications for construction in various forms. The prime roles of concrete industries are reducing material usage, enrichment of compressive strength, and flexural strength of concrete usage. This research focuses on recycling kaolin (mining waste) and silica fume, a great potential material for replacing coarse aggregate gravel stone and fine aggregate sand in conventional concrete as a hybrid. The developed concrete contained 5% nano alumina (Al 2 O 3 ), 10% of kaolin waste (KW), and 5, 10, and 15% of silica fume (SF), and its behavior like compressive strength, flexural strength, water absorption, and acid attack behavior is studied. The molecular structure of crystalline is analyzed via X-ray diffraction (XRD). The 15% SF blended with 5% alumina and 10% KW cured within 28 and 90 days recorded high compressive and flexural strength (44 ± 1.76 MPa and 4.3 ± 0.17 MPa). XRD pattern proved their alumina, SF, and KW and found that the concrete blended with 5% alumina, 10% KW, and 15 wt% SF(90 days cured concrete) showed low water absorption (3.1 ± 0.12%). The effect of sulfuric acid behavior on weight reduction was 0.78% compared to CC1 (concrete cube without Al 2 O 3 , SF, and KW).
Biosorption potential of neem leave powder for the sequestration of arsenic and chromium metal ions Anandh Babu, Shanmuga Priya, A Adeyemo, I Adeoye, O Bello, et al. Global Nest Journal, 2023 <p>In this study, neem leaf biosorbent, prepared through chemical synthesis and activated with concentrated sulfuric acid, was utilized as an organic adsorbent for the removal of heavy metal ions, specifically arsenic (As) and chromium (Cr), from wastewater. The characteristics of the biosorbent were thoroughly analyzed using BET, FTIR, SEM, and EDX analysis to evaluate the surface morphology and functional groups. The experimental results indicated that under optimal conditions, with a pH of 10.0, a biosorbent dose of 3 g/L, an initial concentration of 20 mg/L, and a contact time of 60 minutes, 89.74% of As(II) and 82.32% of Cr(VI) metal ions were efficiently removed from synthetic solutions. To understand the nature of the adsorption process, various isothermal studies were conducted to determine whether it was homogeneous or heterogeneous. In addition to the above-mentioned experiments, kinetic studies were conducted to assess the physical or chemical nature of the metal ion adsorption on the adsorbent. Thermodynamic investigations were also performed to determine whether the adsorption of metal ions was exothermic or endothermic and whether the process was spontaneous. The results from the desorption studies revealed that the addition of 0.3N HCl resulted in the highest rate of desorption. This effectively facilitated the recovery of the metal ions from the spent adsorbent, indicating the effectiveness of 0.3N HCl in desorbing the adsorbed metal ions.</p>
Effect of molar content on GGBS based geopolymer pervious concrete Anandh Babu Malayali, Ramesh Babu Chokkalingam, T Hari Krishnan, P Nagaselvam Iop Conference Series Materials Science and Engineering, 2020 GGBS based Geopolymer pervious concrete (G-GPC) with different molar ratio M8, M10 and M12 studied in this research work. Geopolymer concrete normal fly ash used but in this study GGBS is used, for maintaining the previous property in G-GPC without fine aggregate, 12mm size coarse aggregate utilized in this work, Alkaline solution (sodium silicate NaoH and sodium hydroxide Na2Sio3). Alkaline liquid to solid ratio 0.45. Ratio between Sodium silicate and sodium hydroxide is 2.5. The casted concrete kept in ambient curing. The specimens are attending compression test, Split tension test, Water absorption test, density tests are conducted in the specimen. The Experimental results are analyzed by ANNOVA analysis Method and compare the results of compression test split tension test water absorption test. Based on the above study M12R2.5 G-GPC is perform well when compared to other two molar ratio.

Experimental Study on the Compressive Strength and Permeable Properties of GGBS Based Geopolymer Pervious Concrete Anandh Babu Malayali, Ramesh Babu Chokkalingam, M. Vinay Singh Iop Conference Series Materials Science and Engineering, 2019 This paper deals with the experimental investigation on the mechanical, thermal and moisture properties of Ground Granular Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) based Geopolymer Pervious Concrete (GGPC) with different size of aggregates. The concentration of NaOH is maintained as 12 M throughout the study. Fine aggregate is completely eliminated in the mix proportion to maintain the pervious nature. Coarse aggregate size is varied in three sizes such as 6mm, 12mm, and 20mm to study the effect of aggregate on the properties of GGPC. The ratio between sodium silicate and sodium hydroxide is maintained as 2.5 throughout the study, and the liquid to solid ratio is maintained as 0.45. The results from the experiments revealed that the compressive strength is higher for the aggregate size 12 mm at the end of 28 days compared to other mixes. The Co-efficient of Permeability (k) is increased with respect to the increase in the aggregate size from 6 to 20 mm.
