Our production and consumption patterns of electronic products exceed the limits of what one planet can handle. Prolonging product lifetimes decreases the value losses caused by the destruction of existing products and lowers the amount of e-waste. Repair is an impactful strategy to tackle the issues associated with the production and...

<b>Background</b><br/>Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a progressive, chronic, inflammatory, autoimmune disorder, affecting 0.5-1.5% of the world's population. Current RA disease activity assessment methods rely on subjective, labor-intensive methods. Therefore, an unmet need exists for objectively assessing RA disease activity through a low-labor...

The Random Finite Element Method (RFEM) is a robust stochastic method for slope reliability analysis that incorporates the spatial variability of soil properties. However, the extensive computational time associated with the direct Monte Carlo simulation limits its practical application. To overcome this problem, this study investigates the use...

Oil exploitation of tight reservoirs has gained significant importance lately. Some researchers have defined tight reservoirs as those characterized with permeability lower than 0.1 mD. However, permeability is an absolute value, and tight reservoirs have complex pore systems that require a detailed geological and petrophysical rock...

Carbon trading sets a price on greenhouse gases (GHG), enabling countries and companies to buy emission rights. The carbon market includes the compliant market, regulated by governments, and the voluntary carbon market (VCM), which lacks strict regulation and allows anyone to offset emissions. In the VCM, carbon credits are created through...

Enroute Air Traffic Controllers (ATCOs) determine the appropriate course of action by scanning radar displays to identify and select a flight that requires clearances to ensure safe and efficient operations within their airspace sector. After selecting a flight of interest, ATCOs visually compare the flight parameter displayed in the flight...

The European energy transition policies aim to mitigate the effects of climate change by moving away from fossils and promoting both onshore and offshore renewable energy technologies. Although onshore renewables are driving the transition so far, policymakers believe that in order to achieve the targets, the power grid must have access to the...

Learning new concepts is a difficult task for autonomous robots. These robots can adapt to changes in the situations. To adapt to a situation, they should be able to determine the usefulness of objects around them. The usefulness of objects is highly dependent on situational context, making pre-programming of adaptation behaviour to all possible...

This study addresses a critical aspect of automated driving: enhancing safety during highway emergency scenarios. This is achieved by formulating the problem within the framework of Stochastic Model Predictive Control (SMPC). In SMPC, safety constraints are designed such that a small chance of constraint violation is accepted, contrary to...

The surge in demand for inland vessel goods transportation has necessitated the operation of larger vessels with increased drafts. These larger vessels generate significant induced loads from their more powerful bow thrusters during berthing and mooring. These loads can lead to scour, which ultimately results in instability of the quay wall. To...
