A Multidisciplinary Typology Framework for Technologies to Mitigate Urban Heat Island Effects: Framework development for knowledge integration and dissemination

Urban areas often experience temperature imbalances, resulting in higher temperatures than their rural surroundings, known as the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect. This effect has adverse consequences such as heightened heat-related morbidity and mortality, amplified energy demands, aggravated water scarcity, and diminished urban living comfort....

Constructing Knowledge Maps for Situation Awareness of Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships

Many projects related to maritime autonomous surface ships (MASS) have been proceeding to date, which promotes the commercialization of MASS. It is anticipated that there will be ships with different degrees of autonomy coexisting in a waterborne transport system (WTS) in the near future, forming a mixed waterborne transport system (MWTS). To...

Optimizing Construction Knowledge Integration in Offshore Wind Projects

'Construction Knowledge' is the requisite knowledge for effective and efficient construction and its use in project processes across project lifecycle for better constructability is 'Construction Knowledge Integration (CKI)'. Past researches show that there is limited integration of construction knowledge in preparation stages of the project...
