Technically oriented industries demand job-ready skill sets from employees upon the immediate completion of their post-secondary studies. To meet these needs, many post-secondary institutions have mandated the incorporat...

Abstract Hydroformed parts are widely used in industrial automotive parts because of their higher stiffness and fatigue strength and reduced weight relative to their corresponding cast and welded parts. This paper report...

On-demand ride services or ride-sourcing services have been experiencing fast development and steadily reshaping the way people travel in the past decade. Various optimization algorithms, including reinforcement learning...

Abstract Compact hot extrusion (CHE) process of heavy caliber thick-wall pipe is a new material-saving production process. In order to reveal the optimum hot extrusion parameters in CHE process, the effects of the extrus...

This paper proposes a dual-spectrum communication strategy for Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) scenarios that integrates visible light communication (VLC) and ultraviolet communication (UVC). In the proposed approac...

Abstract An industrial robot with a six-axis force/torque sensor is usually used to produce a zero-gravity environment for testing space robotic operations. However, using traditional force control methods, such as admit...

Besides the recent advances in high-pressure grinding rolls (HPGR) technology, the good track record demonstrates the potential growth in its applications in the future. In this regard, challenges are emerging driven by ...

The global shift towards sustainable bioenergy demands not only improved biomass upgrading methods but also credible validation of their techno-economic and environmental feasibility at an industrial scale. Torrefaction ...

In a recent paper (Lüning et al., 2022; henceforth L22) we critically commented on an attribution study by Stuart-Smith et al. (2021; hencefort S21), pointing out a mismatch between numerical simulation and palaeoclimat...

CO₂ emissions are a critical environmental concern driving global climate change, particularly the rise in Earth's average temperatures. Therefore, reducing CO₂ release into the atmosphere is essential. One promising...

Against the backdrop of global supply chain restructuring and the implementation of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP), this study investigates agricultural supply chain resilience between China and 1...

Protein supply and requirements by ruminants have been studied for more than a century. These studies led to the accumulation of lots of scientific information about digestion and metabolism of protein by ruminants as we...

Here, the implementation of the gradient-based Economic MPC (Model Predictive Control) in an industrial distillation system is studied. The approach is an alternative to overcome the conflict between the MPC and RTO (Rea...

Abstract Earings appear easily during deep drawing of cylindrical parts owing to the anisotropic properties of materials. However, current methods cannot fully utilize the mechanical properties of material, and the numbe...

Abstract Industrial emissions are significant contributors to global air pollution, particularly with respect to PM2.5 and CO2 emissions. It remains one of the most pressing environmental challenges globally, driven larg...

Abstract Based on 2.5-Dimensional (2.5D) frequency selective surface (FSS) structures, a new miniaturized frequency selective surface structure is proposed in this work to operate as a bandreject filter in the 2.4 GHz (2...

"Chemical processes simulation is an important instrument for the design, optimization and control of industrial plants. Simulation cases can be accomplished with relatively low costs and the absence of risks for the ope...

A transformer less Shunt Active Power Filter (SAPF) for medium voltage distribution networks based on Multilevel Diode Clamped Inverter is presented in this paper. Converter current control is based on a Model Predictive...

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 ...

Abstract The development of radio frequency circuits is currently guided mainly through two objectives, which are size reduction and performance improvement of devices. Within a reception or transmission channel, the div...
