This book includes topics that explore diverse and innovative aspects of architectural design, urban planning, infrastructure, and engineering. The "Values Trilogy Design Philosophy" emphasizes the harmonious integration of sustainability, cost-effectiveness, and artistic expression in architectural projects. "DIGIT-ACCESS" explores a digital gateway to enhance accessibility to heritage architectures. The influence of biomimicry and biophilia on sustainable urban planning is examined, along with the application of biomimetic approaches in smart city design and traditional architecture in Saudi Arabia's Asir region. An analytical study investigates zero-energy concepts in high-rise buildings, while another contrasts the thermal performance of various insulation systems in hot-desert climates. The role of interior design in fostering creativity and cultural enrichment in performance arts academies is highlighted, alongside an architectural appraisal of user perceptions toward Tamil Nadu Housing Board (TNHB) low-income housing schemes. In the realm of electrical, mechanical engineering, and fabrication, this book covers advanced topics such as reducing peak average power ratio in OFDM systems for cognitive radio, nonlinear buckling analyses of corrugated steel plate shear walls, and accelerated corrosion testing of carbon steel. The mechanical characteristics of sustainable rigid pavement using sintered fly ash aggregate are explored, as well as the impact of fiberglass reinforced concrete on sustainable design. Additional studies include the evaluation of water resistance in glass-modified concrete, the effects of laser treatment on waste poly(aramid) fiber for 3D printed composites, and the polymerization of copperas into polyferric sulfate for leachate treatment. Lastly, a thermogravimetric evaluation and kinetic study of pyrolysis in commercialized timber species in Peru provide insights into sustainable material behavior.

Since 1994 the European Commission has been supporting activities under the Environment and Climate programme of research and technological de velopment, with the aim of developing cost-effective applications of satellite Earth observation (EO) for both environmental monitoring and research. This action has included support to methodological research, aimed at the development and evaluation of new techniques forming part ofthe chain of processing needed to transform data into useful information. Wherever appropriate, the Commission has emphasised the coordination of ongoing research funded at the national level, through the mechanism of concerted actions. Concerted actions are flexible and efficient means to marshal efforts at the European level for a certain period. They are proposed by groups of researchers active in a given field who have identified the added value to be gained by European cooperation, whilst continuing to pursue their own individual projects. In view of the rapid developments in the field of neural network over the last 10 years, together with the growing interest ofthe Earth observation community in this approach as a tool for data interpretation, the Commission decided in 1995 to support the concerted action COMPARES, following a proposal from a group of acknowledged European experts.

The aim of this book is to present a rigorous phenomenological and mathematical formulation of sedimentation processes and to show how this theory can be applied to the design and control of continuous thickeners. The book is directed to stu dents and researchers in applied mathematics and engineering sciences, especially in metallurgical, chemical, mechanical and civil engineering, and to practicing en gineers in the process industries. Such a vast and diverse audience should read this book differently. For this reason we have organized the chapters in such a way that the book can be read in two ways. Engineers and engineering students will find a rigorous formulation of the mathematical model of sedimentation and the exact and approximate solutions for the most important problems encountered in the laboratory and in industry in Chapters 1 to 3, 7 and 8, and 10 to 12, which form a self-contained subject. They can skip Chapters 4 to 6 and 9, which are most important to applied mathematicians, without losing the main features of sedimentation processes. On the other hand, applied mathematicians will find special interest in Chapters 4 to 6 and 9 which show some known but many recent results in the field of conservation laws of quasilinear hyperbolic and degenerate parabolic equations of great interest today. These two approaches to the theory keep their own styles: the mathematical approach with theorems and proofs, and the phenomenological approach with its deductive technique.

This book reports on cutting-edge research and developments focusing on integrating intelligent functionalities into materials, components, systems and products. Gathering the proceedings of the 6th International Conference on System-Integrated Intelligence (SysInt 2022), held on September 7-9, in Genova, Italy, it offers a comprehensive, multidisciplinary and applied perspective on the state-of-the art and challenges in the field of intelligent, flexible and connected systems. The book covers advanced methods and applications relating to artificial, pervasive and ubiquitous intelligence, sensors, smart factory and logistics, structural health monitoring, as well as soft robotics, cognitive systems and human-machine interaction. Giving a special focus to artificial intelligence, it extensively reports on methods and algorithms for data-driven modeling, and agent-based data processing and planning. It aims at inspiring and fostering collaboration between researchers and professionals from the different fields of electrical, manufacturing and production engineering, and materials and computer sciences.

After two decades, data processing has finally, and probably forever, found its niche among civil engineering and construction (CEC) professionnals, through word processors, digitizing tables, management software, and increasingly via drawing software and computer-aided design (CAD), recently, robots have even started invading work sites. What are the main trends of CAD and robotics in the field of architecture and civil enginee ring? What type of R&D effort do university and industrial laboratories undertake to devise the professional software that will be on the market in the next three to five years? These are the issues which will be addressed during this symposium. To this effect, we have planned concurrently an equipment and software show, as well as a twofold conference. Robotic is just starting in the field of civil engineering and construction. A pioneer, the Civil engineering Departement of Carnegie-Mellon university, in the United States, organized the first two international symposia, in 1984 and 1985 in Pittsburgh. This is the third meeting on the subject (this year, however, we have also included CAD). It constitutes the first large international symposium where CAD experts, specialists in architecture and CEC robotics will meet. From this standpoint, it should be an ideal forum for exchanging views and expe riences on a wide range of topics, and we hope it will give rise to novel applications and new syntheses. This symposium is intented for scientists, teachers, students and also for manufacturers and all CEC professionals.

This book provides readers with a detailed reference regarding two of the most important long-term reliability and aging effects on nanometer integrated systems, electromigrations (EM) for interconnect and biased temperature instability (BTI) for CMOS devices. The authors discuss in detail recent developments in the modeling, analysis and optimization of the reliability effects from EM and BTI induced failures at the circuit, architecture and system levels of abstraction. Readers will benefit from a focus on topics such as recently developed, physics-based EM modeling, EM modeling for multi-segment wires, new EM-aware power grid analysis, and system level EM-induced reliability optimization and management techniques.
