For the structural health monitoring of composite materials, data analysis technology must be very sophisticated, capable of detecting fault patterns that are multi-level and complicated. A comprehensive deep learning pa...

Introduction Diabetes is increasingly prevalent in reproductive-aged women, but the association between social determinants of health (SDOH) and access to A1C monitoring after diagnosis are poorly understood. We explored...

Structural Health Monitoring faces several challenges. Among them, especially for the quantification of damage, are (1) the uncertainty in the boundary conditions, (2) the need for a calibrated numerical model, or measur...

The aerospace industry is a very unforgiving field, where even the smallest error could have catastrophic consequences. To reduce the risk of disaster, multiple systems are put into place to provide accurate information ...

Structural health monitoring (SHM) has become a central tool for managing civil infrastructure. In modern SHM, the physical structure and the SHM system together form a coupled cyber-physical system. Due to the networked...

Prediction of building occupancy is a very important element of structural health monitoring (SHM), smart building systems, and energy management. In this study, a number of visualization tools are used to analyze the pe...

IntroductionThe COVID-19 pandemic has reduced system resilience, caused economic welfare loss, and widened disparities in healthcare access. This study aims to identify the macro-level factors contributing to COVID-19 va...

Abstract Modern agriculture requires rapid, affordable tools to monitor crops and soils directly in the field. Cellulose, the structural polymer of plants, is emerging as a versatile foundation for lightweight, biodegrad...

Anthropogenic alteration of tropical and subtropical forests is a major driver of biodi-versity loss, with the Chaco forest, the largest dry forest in the Americas, among the most impacted regions. Sustainable forest man...

Abstract In order to address health monitoring issues on offshore wind turbines, while taking into account engineering know-how and constraints, we propose a robust model identification procedure based on reliability of ...

This article considers the influence of local one-sided damage on the stress-strain state of a reinforced concrete beam. The research is aimed at analyzing changes in load-bearing capacity, deformations, and potential fa...

Nonlinear response conception in rotating machinery, particularly in systems with squeeze film dampers (SFDs), pose significant challenges for established time-domain numerical methods due to bifurcations and critical po...

Introduction and Aims: Mandibular movement is a complex physiological process essential for orofacial function. Patients with disc displacement without reduction (DDWoR) exhibit significant kinematic impairments, which a...

This study investigates the long-term aging effects and structural degradation mechanisms of photovoltaic (PV) modules integrated into smart city furniture, with a particular focus on panels of 10 W, 25 W, and 40 W nomin...

Abstract Traditional bridge structural condition assessments struggle to integrate the physical topological information of BIM models with the spatiotemporal evolution of long-term monitoring data, resulting in low asses...

Rapid urbanisation across Africa is placing increasing strain on urban governance systems, intensifying long-standing challenges such as infrastructure deficits, inefficient service delivery, and limited institutional ca...

Abstract Background Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) comprise a group of persistent carcinogenic pollutants whose transfer from air to soil via the atmospheric deposition represents a major chronic exposure pathwa...

Abstract This study examines the mediating role of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in enhancing quality of life in Saudi cities, as exemplified by the Green Riyadh Program. Rapid urbanization and environmental chal...

Background: Conventional electrocardiography (ECG) analysis faces a persistent dichotomy: Expert-defined features provide interpretability but are limited in capturing latent high-dimensional patterns, whereas deep learn...

Concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) truss arch bridges are widely used in long-span bridge construction due to their high strength, good stiffness, and excellent durability. However, arch rib joints, as critical load-be...

ABSTRACT Invoking high‐performance bio‐based fibres (e.g., Bacterial cellulose) contributes to the sustainability and functionality of wearable electronic devices at the material level. However, the fabrication of se...

Abstract Background Despite Sweden’s universalist health model and a long-standing network of youth clinics offering free sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services, boys and young men (BYM) remain significantly und...

Heavy metal contamination poses serious environmental and health risks, even at trace levels, highlighting the need for efficient and sustainable detection strategies. This study presents a green approach for producing n...

Nature-based solutions (NbS) for urban stormwater management, including bioretention systems, constructed wetlands, green roofs, and permeable pavements, are increasingly promoted as climate adaptation tools that enhance...
