The aluminum metal matrix composites were broadly exploited in the applications of automotive, aerospace, and other defense with functionally graded materials-related application. Above applications definitely required excellent mechanical characteristics. Therefore, in this way, the major attempt was made on the nano-based composites with aluminum alloy utilization. In this research, aluminum alloy AA8011 and the ceramic-based reinforcement particles of nano boron carbide (B4C) were selected for producing the metal matrix composites by the liquefying process or stir casting route. The weight percentage of nano boron carbide particles having 15 wt% was subjected to add into the aluminum alloy during the stir casting process. Then, processed nano boron carbide and AA8011 specimens were prepared to conduct tribological behaviors with various processing conditions like sliding velocity, setting wear temperature, and applied load by the tribometer setup. The scanning electron microscope was employed to examine the processed composites samples and worn-out surface samples. Finally, the multiobjective optimization was used to measure the individual performances of the tribological parameters by the gray relational technique.

“…Due to its long formative period of more than 1 year, sugarcane has a higher water need than most of the other crops (Shukla et al., 2017). Improving soil conditioning can increase crop yield by increasing various characteristics such as swelling, water retention, and slow nutrient release (Songara et al., 2022).…”

According to the current scenario, water crises are booming at a higher rate globally, affecting different demands such as agricultural, domestic, industrial, and so forth. Ultimately, such a water crisis may affect food safety. We have developed guar gum (GG)‐based hydrogel to help solve this issue with a water‐saving objective. This paper presents the application performance of newly developed GG‐based hydrogel on sugarcane crop growth, yield, and its economics. The crop water requirement and irrigation scheduling are also obtained using the CROPWAT model. Comparing different irrigation practices indicates that six irrigations can be saved by applying the CROPWAT optimization model, and up to three irrigations can be saved by applying different dosages of GG‐based hydrogel against the conventional method. Moreover, a set dosage application of 2.5 and 5 kg ha−1 of GG‐based hydrogel has elevated the cane height up to 8.67% and 10.02%, respectively. Furthermore, a considerable increment of 5.5% and 8% was found in the crop yield. In addition, the average soil moisture was found to be 10.50% and 17% higher over the field without hydrogel by using an indigenously developed Internet of Things–based SS316L soil moisture sensor. Applying GG‐based hydrogel (2.5 and 5 kg ha−1) saves the number of irrigations by two and three times, respectively. When it comes to the economy, the benefit–cost ratio for 2.5 and 5 kg ha−1 hydrogel dosages was found to be 2.64 and 2.09, respectively. Thus, GG‐based hydrogel shows substantial promise as a useful agricultural product for water‐saving purposes.
