In this work, we proposed a dynamic inverse solution with spatio-temporal constraints of the nonlinear heat diffusion problem in 1D and 2D based on a regularized Gauss–Newton and Krylov subspace with a preconditioner. The preconditioner is computed by approximating the Jacobian of the nonlinear system at each Gauss–Newton iteration. The proposed approach is used for estimation of the initial value from measurements of the last value by considering spatial and spatio-temporal constraints. The system is compared to a dynamic Tikhonov inverse solution and generalized minimal residual method (GMRES) with and without a preconditioner. The system is evaluated under noise conditions in order to verify the robustness of the proposed approach. It can be seen that the proposed spatio-temporal regularized Gauss–Newton method with GMRES and a preconditioner shows better estimation results than the other methods for both spatial and spatio-temporal constraints.

Land use significantly influences mobility dynamics, affecting both travel behavior and mode choice. Traditional indicators such as the Floor Area Ratio, Land-Use Mix Index, and Built-up Area Ratio are widely used to describe settlement patterns; yet, they often fail to capture their functional impacts on road networks. This study introduces two complementary indicators—Settlement Ratio (SR) and Settled Area (SA)—developed through a spatial analysis framework integrating GIS data and MATLAB processing. SR offers a continuous typological profile of built-up functions along the road axis, while SA measures the percentage of anthropized land within fixed analysis windows. Applied to two Italian state roads, SS14 and SS309, in the Veneto Region, the dual-indicator approach reveals how the intensity (SR) and extent (SA) of settlement vary across different territorial contexts. In suburban segments, SR values exceeding 15–20, together with SA levels between 10% and 15%, highlight the significant spatial impact of isolated development clusters—often not evident from macro-scale observations. These findings demonstrate that the SR–SA framework provides a robust tool for analyzing land use in relation to road function. Although the study focuses on spatial structure and indicator design, future developments will explore correlations with traffic flow, speed, and crash data to support road safety analyses.

Blast mitigation of structures is an important research topic due to increasing intentional and accidental human-induced threats and hazards. This research area is essential to building capabilities in sustaining structural protection, site planning, protective design efficiency, occupant safety, and response and recovery plans. This paper investigates experimental tests and finite element analysis (FEM) of thin A36 steel sheets subjected to blast. Six field blast tests were performed at standoff distances of 300 mm and 500 mm. The explosive charges comprised 334 g of bare Composition B, and the steel sheets were 2 mm thick. The experimental results, derived from the analysis of high-speed camera recordings of the blast events, were compared with FEM simulations conducted using Abaqus^®/Explicit version 6.10. Three constitutive material models were considered in these simulations. First, the FEM simulation results were compared with experimental results. It was shown that the FEM analysis provided reliable results and was proven to be robust and cost-effective. Second, an extensive set of 460 additional numerical simulations was carried out as a parametric study involving varying standoff distances and steel sheet thicknesses. The results and methodologies presented in this paper offer valuable and original insights for engineers and researchers aiming to predict damage to steel structures during real detonation events and to design blast-resistant structures.

Electricity distribution systems face increasing challenges due to demand growth, regulatory requirements, and the integration of distributed generation. In this context, distribution companies must make strategic and well-supported investment decisions, particularly in asset reinforcement actions such as reconductoring. This paper presents a multi-stage methodology to optimize reconductoring investments under load forecasting uncertainties. The approach combines a decomposition strategy with Monte Carlo simulation to capture demand variability. By discretizing a lognormal probability density function and selecting the largest loads in the network, the methodology balances computational feasibility with modeling accuracy. The optimization model employs exhaustive search techniques independently for each network branch, ensuring precise and consistent investment decisions. Tests conducted on the IEEE 123-bus feeder consider both operational and regulatory constraints from the Brazilian context. Results show that uncertainty-aware planning leads to a narrow investment range—between USD 55,108 and USD 66,504—highlighting the necessity of reconductoring regardless of demand scenarios. A comparative analysis of representative cases reveals consistent interventions, changes in conductor selection, and schedule adjustments based on load conditions. The proposed methodology enables flexible, cost-effective, and regulation-compliant investment planning, offering valuable insights for utilities seeking to enhance network reliability and performance while managing demand uncertainties.

Slope stability assessment is a critical component of engineering safety. Conventional analytical methods frequently struggle to integrate heterogeneous slope data and model intricate failure mechanisms, thereby constraining their efficacy in practical engineering scenarios. To tackle these issues, this study presents a novel slope stability classification model grounded in the Optuna-TPE-CatBoost framework. By leveraging the Tree-structured Parzen Estimator (TPE) within the Optuna framework, the model adaptively optimizes CatBoost hyperparameters, thus enhancing prediction accuracy and robustness. It incorporates six key features—slope height, slope angle, unit weight, cohesion, internal friction angle, and the pore pressure ratio—to establish a comprehensive and intelligent assessment system. Utilizing a dataset of 272 slope cases, the model was trained with k-fold cross-validation and dynamic class imbalance strategies to ensure its generalizability. The optimized model achieved impressive performance metrics: an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.926, an accuracy of 0.901, a recall of 0.874, and an F1-score of 0.881, outperforming benchmark algorithms such as XGBoost, LightGBM, and the unoptimized CatBoost. Validation via engineering case studies confirms that the model accurately evaluates slope stability across diverse scenarios and effectively captures the complex interactions between key parameters. This model offers a reliable and interpretable solution for slope stability assessment under complex failure mechanisms. Full article

The Automatic Identification System (AIS) has become a key data source for ship behavior monitoring and maritime traffic management, widely used in trajectory prediction and anomaly detection. However, AIS data suffer from issues such as spatial sparsity, heterogeneous features, variable message formats, and irregular sampling intervals, while vessel trajectories are characterized by strong spatial–temporal dependencies. These factors pose significant challenges for efficient and accurate modeling. To address this issue, we propose a lightweight vessel trajectory prediction framework that integrates Spatial–Temporal Identity encoding with an MLP-Mixer architecture. The framework discretizes spatial and temporal features into structured IDs and uses dual MLP modules to model temporal dependencies and feature interactions without relying on convolution or attention mechanisms. Experiments on a large-scale real-world AIS dataset demonstrate that the proposed STID-Mixer achieves superior accuracy, training efficiency, and generalization capability compared to representative baseline models. The method offers a compact and deployable solution for large-scale maritime trajectory modeling. Full article

Traditional Pavement Condition Index (PCI) assessments are highly resource-intensive, demanding substantial time and labor while generating significant carbon emissions through extensive field operations. To address these sustainability challenges, this research presents an innovative methodology utilizing Gene Expression Programming (GEP) to determine PCI values based on International Roughness Index (IRI) measurements from Iraqi road networks, offering an environmentally conscious and resource-efficient approach to pavement management. The study incorporated 401 samples of IRI and PCI data through comprehensive visual inspection procedures. The developed GEP model exhibited exceptional predictive performance, with coefficient of determination (R²) values achieving 0.821 for training, 0.858 for validation, and 0.8233 overall, successfully accounting for approximately 82–85% of PCI variance. Prediction accuracy remained robust with Mean Absolute Error (MAE) values of 12–13 units and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) values of 11.209 and 11.00 for training and validation sets, respectively. The lower validation RMSE suggests effective generalization without overfitting. Strong correlations between predicted and measured values exceeded 0.90, with acceptable relative absolute error values ranging from 0.403 to 0.387, confirming model effectiveness. Comparative analysis reveals GEP outperforms alternative regression methods in generalization capacity, particularly in real-world applications. This sustainable methodology represents a cost-effective alternative to conventional PCI evaluation, significantly reducing environmental impact through decreased field operations, lower fuel consumption, and minimized traffic disruption. By streamlining pavement management while maintaining assessment reliability and accuracy, this approach supports environmentally responsible transportation systems and aligns contemporary sustainability goals in infrastructure management.

Upon reaching stabilized production in waterflooded reservoirs, waterflood performance curves are conventionally used to predict technically recoverable reserves (TRRs). However, as reservoirs enter high water-cut stages, the relationship between the relative permeability ratio and saturation becomes nonlinear, causing deflection in waterflood performance curves. This leads to systematic overestimation of both predicted TRR and ultimate recovery factors. To overcome these limitations in conventional TRR prediction methods, this study establishes a novel relative permeability ratio-saturation relationship based on characteristic relative permeability curve behaviors. The proposed model is validated for three distinct fluid-rock interaction types. We further develop a permeability-driven forecasting model for oil production rates and water cuts. Comparative analyses with a conventional waterflood curve methodology demonstrate significant accuracy improvements. The results show that while traditional methods predict TRR ranging from 78.40 to 92.29 million tons, our model yields 70.73 million tons—effectively resolving overestimation issues caused by curve deflection during high water-cut phases. This approach establishes a robust framework for determining critical development parameters, including economic field lifespan, strategy adjustments, and ultimate recovery factor. Full article

As a core device in low-voltage distribution networks, the distribution zone transformer (DZT) is influenced by short circuits, overloads, and unbalanced loads, which cause thermal aging, mechanical stress, and eventually deformation of the winding, resulting in parameter deviations from nameplate values and impairing system operation. However, existing identification methods typically require synchronized high- and low-voltage data and are limited to symmetric three-phase conditions, which limits their application in practical distribution systems. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a parameter identification method for DZTs under three-phase unbalanced conditions. Firstly, based on the transformer’s T-equivalent circuit considering the load, the power flow equations are derived without involving the synchronization issue of high-voltage and low-voltage side data, and the sum of the impedances on both sides is treated as an independent parameter. Then, a novel power flow equation under three-phase unbalanced conditions is established, and an adaptive recursive least squares (ARLS) solution method is constructed using the measurement data sequence provided by the smart meter of the intelligent transformer terminal unit (TTU) to achieve online identification of the transformer winding parameters. The effectiveness and robustness of the method are verified through practical case studies. Full article

An Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) is an indispensable part of image sensor systems. This paper presents a silicon-based 13-bit 100 kS/s two-step single-slope analog-to-digital converter (TS-SS ADC) for infrared image sensors with a frame rate of 100 Hz. For the charge leakage and offset voltage issues inherent in conventional TS-SS ADC, a four-terminal comparator was employed to resolve the fine ramp voltage offset caused by charge redistribution in storage and parasitic capacitors. In addition, a current-steering digital-to-analog converter (DAC) was adopted to calibrate the voltage reference of the dynamic comparator and mitigate differential nonlinearity (DNL)/integral nonlinearity (INL). To eliminate quantization dead zones, a 1-bit redundancy was incorporated into the fine quantization circuit. Finally, the quantization scheme consisted of 7-bit coarse quantization followed by 7-bit fine quantization. The ADC was implemented using an SMIC 55 nm processSemiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation, Shanghai, China. The post-simulation results show that when the power supply is 3.3 V, the ADC achieves a quantization range of 1.3 V–3 V. Operating at a 100 kS/s sampling rate, the proposed ADC exhibits an effective number of bits (ENOBs) of 11.86, a spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) of 97.45 dB, and a signal-to-noise-and-distortion ratio (SNDR) of 73.13 dB. The power consumption of the ADC was 22.18 mW. Full article

Straw fiber curtain contains a plant fiber blanket woven from crop straw, which is mainly used to protect embankment slopes from rainwater erosion. To investigate the erosion control performance of slopes covered with straw fiber curtains of different structural configurations, physical model tests were conducted in a 95 cm × 65 cm × 50 cm (length × height × width) test box with a slope ratio of 1:1.5 under controlled artificial rainfall conditions (20 mm/h, 40 mm/h, and 60 mm/h). The study evaluated the runoff characteristics, sediment yield, and key hydrodynamic parameters of slopes under the coverage of different straw fiber curtain types. The results show that the A-type straw fiber curtain (woven with strips of straw fiber) has the best effect on water retention and sediment reduction, while the B-type straw fiber curtain (woven with thicker straw strips) with vertical straw fiber has a better effect regarding water retention and sediment reduction than the B-type transverse straw fiber curtain. The flow of rainwater on a slope covered with straw fiber curtain is mainly a laminar flow. Straw fiber curtain can promote the conversion of water flow from rapids to slow flow. The Darcy-Weisbach resistance coefficient of straw fiber curtain increases at different degrees with an increase in rainfall time. Full article

Soft soils, characterized by high compressibility, low shear strength, and high water sensitivity, pose serious challenges to geotechnical engineering in infrastructure projects. Traditional stabilization methods such as lime and cement face limitations, including environmental concerns and poor durability under chemical or cyclic loading. Ionic soil stabilizers (ISSs), which operate through electrochemical mechanisms, offer a promising alternative. However, their long-term performance—particularly under environmental stressors such as acid/alkali exposure and cyclic wetting–drying—remains insufficiently explored. This study evaluates the strength and durability of ISS-modified soil through a comprehensive experimental program, including direct shear tests, permeability tests, and cyclic wetting–drying experiments under neutral, acidic (pH = 4), and alkaline (pH = 10) environments. The results demonstrate that ISS treatment increases soil cohesion by up to 75.24% and internal friction angle by 9.50%, particularly under lower moisture conditions (24%). Permeability decreased by 88.4% following stabilization, resulting in only a 10–15% strength loss after water infiltration, compared to 40–50% in untreated soils. Under three cycles of wetting–drying, ISS-treated soils retained high shear strength, especially under acidic conditions, where degradation was minimal. In contrast, alkaline conditions caused a cohesion reduction of approximately 26.53%. These findings confirm the efficacy of ISSs in significantly improving both the mechanical performance and environmental durability of soft soils, offering a sustainable and effective solution for soil stabilization in chemically aggressive environments.

Fungal lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) have revolutionized the field of biomass degradation by introducing an oxidative mechanism that complements traditional hydrolytic enzymes. These copper-dependent enzymes catalyze the cleavage of glycosidic bonds in recalcitrant polysaccharides such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and chitin, through the activation of molecular oxygen (O₂) or hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂). Their catalytic versatility is intricately modulated by structural features, including the histidine brace active site, surface-binding loops, and, in some cases, appended carbohydrate-binding modules (CBMs). The oxidation pattern, whether at the C1, C4, or both positions, is dictated by subtle variations in loop architecture, amino acid microenvironments, and substrate interactions. LPMOs are embedded in a highly synergistic fungal enzymatic system, working alongside cellulases, hemicellulases, lignin-modifying enzymes, and oxidoreductases to enable efficient lignocellulose decomposition. Industrial applications of fungal LPMOs are rapidly expanding, with key roles in second-generation biofuels, biorefineries, textile processing, food and feed industries, and the development of sustainable biomaterials. Recent advances in genome mining, protein engineering, and heterologous expression are accelerating the discovery of novel LPMOs with improved functionalities. Understanding the balance between O₂- and H₂O₂-driven mechanisms remains critical for optimizing their catalytic efficiency while mitigating oxidative inactivation. As the demand for sustainable biotechnological solutions grows, this narrative review highlights how fungal LPMOs function as indispensable biocatalysts for the future of the Circular Bioeconomy and green industrial processes.

The 2020 southern Puerto Rico earthquake sequence highlighted the severe seismic vulnerability of informally constructed two-story reinforced concrete (RC) houses. This study examines the failure mechanisms of these structures and assesses the effectiveness of first-floor RC shear-wall retrofitting. Nonlinear pushover and dynamic time–history analyses were performed using fiber-based distributed plasticity models for RC frames and nonlinear macro-elements for second-floor masonry infills, which introduced a significant inter-story stiffness imbalance. A bi-directional seismic input was applied using spectrally matched, near-fault pulse-like ground motions. The findings for the as-built structures showed that stiffness mismatches between stories, along with substantial strength and stiffness differences between orthogonal axes, resulted in concentrated plastic deformations and displacement-driven failures in the first story—consistent with damage observed during the 2020 earthquakes. Retrofitting the first floor with RC shear walls notably improved the performance, doubling the lateral load capacity and enhancing the overall stiffness. However, the retrofitted structures still exhibited a concentration of inelastic action—albeit with lower demands—shifted to the second floor, indicating potential for further optimization.

To support carbon peaking and neutrality goals in the city transportation sector, this paper accounts for CO₂ emissions from the transport sector in Xuzhou City, North Jiangsu Province, from 1995 to 2023. This study explores the relationship between transport-related carbon emissions and economic growth, using the TAPIO decoupling index. Meanwhile, a carbon emission prediction model based on the STIRPAT framework is constructed, with scenario analysis applied to forecast future emissions. Results show three decoupling stages: the first, dominated by weak and expansive negative decoupling, reflects extensive economic growth; the second features weak decoupling with expansive coupling, indicating a more environmentally coordinated phase; the third transitions from expansive negative decoupling and weak decoupling to strong decoupling and expansive coupling, suggesting a shift in development patterns. Under the baseline, low-carbon, and enhanced low-carbon scenarios, by 2030, the CO₂ emissions of the transportation industry in Xuzhou will be 10,154,700 tons, 9,072,500 tons, and 8,835,000 tons, respectively, and the CO₂ emissions under the low-carbon scenario and the enhanced low-carbon scenario will be reduced by 10.66% and 13.00%, respectively. Based on these findings, the study proposes carbon reduction strategies for Xuzhou’s transport sector, focusing on policy regulation, energy use, and structural adjustments. Full article
