The authors are pleased to present the findings of the research projects conducted by GENERGÉTICA research group affiliated to the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Universidad Tecnológica de Pereira. These c...

Natural language understanding systems require a knowledge base provided with formal representations reflecting the structure of human beings' cognitive system. Although surface semantics can be sufficient in some other ...

Introductory Statistics follows scope and sequence requirements of a one-semester introduction to statistics course and is geared toward students majoring in fields other than math or engineering. The text assumes some k...

The effects of human loads on structures are difficult to predict because they depend on the type of activity people are performing. However, models for typical activities such as standing, sitting and jumping have been ...

Quantum technology is one of the most promising and challenging fields in contemporary science. Quantum computing, quantum cryptography, and more generally quantum information technologies claim that they, in the short ...

The analysis of the stability of slopes is a key aspect in the design of any infrastructure such as roads, railways, canals, pipelines and dams as well as in mining operations. For common infrastructures, slopes reach he...

The Indonesian Trade Secrets Law Number 30/2000 (ITS Law) postulates exemptions for acts that are not considered infringements to protect trade secrets. One of them is the reverse engineering of other people’s trade se...

The article is devoted to the theoretical substantiation of the expediency of preparing future masters of preschool education for the formation of engineering skills in preschool children; analysis of scientists’ resea...

We frequently hear news about compromised systems, virus attacks, spam emails, stolen bank account numbers, and loss of money. Safeguarding and protecting digital assets against these and other cyber-attacks are extremel...

To address the issues of low solution accuracy, premature convergence, and susceptibility to local optima in the Parrot Optimization (PO) algorithm, a Reinforced Multi-strategy Parrot Optimization (RMPO) algorithm has be...

The military aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, through the use of the full range of enemy aerial attack means not only against military targets but also against critical infrastructure objects (herein...

The HS-Small model, which can reflect the attenuation of shear modulus of soils with strain in tiny strain range, has been gradually utilized in excavation engineering. The laboratory tests using triaxial apparatus, oedo...

Life cycle assessment (LCA) is critical for credible climate decisions, although practice varies contextually. This review explains when to use attributional (ALCA) versus consequential (CLCA) LCAs, consolidating guidanc...

The purpose of this qualitative study was to determine how small sub-directorates within larger organizations develop strategy to accomplish expansive legacy infrastructure re-engineering. There is significant, historica...

Abstract Machine learning (ML) has powerful nonlinear processing and multivariate learning capabilities, so it has been widely utilised in the fatigue field. However, most ML methods are inexplicable black-box models tha...

The design criteria of Terzaghi filter layer have laid the foundation for the researches on filter layers, which are safet enough for uniform cohesionless soil, but not secure for uneven cohesionless soil, and they are n...

As key materials for medical devices and consumables, biomedical elastomer materials play a significant role in improving people's health and quality of life. The biomedical elastomer material industry has broad applicat...

Effective from Volume 3, JIWE has transitioned to a triannual publication release effort. Specifically, releases occur each February, June, and October. This June 2025 release contains 28 papers within the regular sectio...

The earthquake liquefaction is one of the direct causes for unstable ground and damage of upper structure. Therefore, the liquefaction assessment is an important part of anti-seismic investigation in engineering. By taki...

Abstract The Ultrasonic cavitation effect has been widely used in mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, biomedicine, and many other fields. The quantitative characterization of ultrasonic cavitation intensity has...

Solar irradiance (SI) forecasting and determination of optimum tilt angle (OTA) of photovoltaic (PV) panels are the key strategies for improving the power output of PV systems. Precise SI forecasting offer valuable infor...

The liquefaction resistant rigid-drainage pile is a new type of pile which can be used in geotechnical earthquake engineering. The pile combines the bearing capacity of rigid pile and the drain-ability of gravel pile. Ba...

The vibration-induced liquefaction in soils is a notable hottopic in geotechnical engineering. The building collapse and embankment burst induced by liquefaction are fatal for the loss of lives and properties of human be...
