Platform Development of BIM-Based Fire Safety Management System Considering the Construction Site

Fire at a construction site usually results in serious accidents. Therefore, fire management at the construction site is critical to decreasing possible accidents. However, conventional fire safety management can be problematic in many aspects, such as visualization, multi-stage alarm systems, and dynamic escape route optimization. To solve...

An online data driven fault diagnosis and thermal runaway early warning for electric vehicle batteries

Battery fault diagnosis is crucial for stable, reliable, and safe operation of electric vehicles, especially the thermal runaway early warning. Developing methods for early failure detection and reducing safety risks from failing high energy lithium-ion batteries has become a major challenge for industry. In this article, a real-time early...

Optimization of intrinsic self-healing silicone coatings by benzotriazole loaded mesoporous silica

Multifunctional intrinsic self-healing polymers (ISP) are gaining increasing attention these days, and many studies have been devoted to solving the conflict between achieving high mechanical polymer strength and active polymer chain diffusion. In this research, we developed an optimized self-healing composite coating by adding Benzotriazole ...

Effect of ethanol concentration on methane hydrate decomposition: MD simulation insights

The controllability of mining is a key factor affecting the commercial application of methane hydrates, and the addition of chemical additives can significantly accelerate the mining process. However, the effect of additive concentration on hydrate decomposition is not yet well understood. In this study, we systematically investigate the...
