Abstract The computation of optimal routes considering multiple factors is a key challenge in operations research, with significant impact on practical decision-making and real-world efficiency. Optimal bus transit route...

IntroductionThe ability to remember locations of objects and make spatial decisions is critical when navigating an environment. Such tasks, however, can be difficult for individuals with certain neurological conditions, ...

Abstract Blast furnace sludge (BFS) is an iron and carbon rich by-product whose direct recycling to ironmaking routes is often constrained by its fine particle size and the presence of volatile/corrosive species. This st...

Routing vehicles is a generic decision-making problem of strategic management in any business serving customers in distributed locations with a limited fleet including municipal solid waste collection. This paper introdu...

Optimal evacuation route planning is a crucial factor in disaster mitigation, especially in areas with limited communication infrastructure. This study proposes the application of the A-Star method for evacuation route o...

In this study, a new methodology is developed to optimize cold chain distribution routes of agricultural products with a view to reducing the costs of distribution. It develops a mathematical model that considers multipl...

BackgroundLast-mile logistics accounts for approximately 28% of total logistics costs and is a major contributor to urban carbon emissions. The integration of drones with electric trucks offers a path toward more efficie...

Abstract Achieving accurate speed prediction provides the most critical support parameter for high-level energy management of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. Nowadays, people often drive a vehicle on fixed routes in th...

This research determines improved flight-path routes that make maximum utilization of terrain-masking opportunities, and defending radar and missile system equipment performance and launch timing constraints, in order to...

In this work, a Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) model for daily routing of trucks in forest industry is presented. The aim is to generate truck routes at minimum cost, while logs supply is guaranteed. Models usua...

Italian historic centres face critical challenges balancing heritage conservation with contemporary needs, particularly in regions like Calabria where smaller settlements experience depopulation, decay, and inadequate se...

Abstract Substantial efforts have been made to modernize and decarbonize the waste collection industry. Smart sensor-based waste collection (SWC) systems have been developed to optimize collection routes based on the act...

With the continuous innovation in household appliance technology and the improvement of living standards, the production of discarded household appliances has rapidly increased, making their recycling increasingly signif...

The valorization of fishery-derived wastes through microalgal biotechnology provides a practical route to integrate wastewater remediation with high-value bioproduct generation. This study demonstrates an integrated proc...

Although the mobility protocols have improved, Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6)-Based Distributed Mobility Management (DMM) networks still have significant challenges to ensure a seamless user mobility. These problems include ...

Redox flow batteries, as a key long-duration energy storage technology underpinning new power systems, have become a strategic focus in global energy transition. Their industrialization process is highly dependent on per...

Abstract Locoregional CAR-T delivery is increasingly explored for glioblastoma to improve intracranial tumor exposure; however, organ-level biodistribution kinetics after intracranial administration remain poorly quantif...

Abstract The sustainable production of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) from renewable biowaste would reduce environmental burden and expand green nanotechnology applications. This study reports a hydrothermal extraction rou...

The spinning industries negatively impact the environment by generating substantial process waste. Unlike previous studies that primarily focus on recycling textile waste, this study explores a sustainable practice by in...

Integrative proteome-wide virtual screening offers a powerful route to discover broad-spectrum antivirals against emerging flaviviruses, for which no approved therapeutics currently exist. Here, we address this gap by co...

Abstract Background Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition with rising global prevalence. Current management strategies predominantly address behavioral symptoms rather than core neurobi...

Comprehensive navigation and information access remain significant issues in vast educational campuses with linguistic diversities. This re- search proposes an innovative conversational AI system that integrates automati...
