EXPERIMENTAL EVALUATION OF INTERFACE ADHESION OF A FLAX FIBER COMPOSITE PATCH WITH EPOXY AND POLYURETHANE ADHESIVES FOR THE REINFORCEMENT OF STEEL STRUCTURES
Using fiber-reinforced composite patches for repairing damaged structures made of metal or/and concrete is an interesting and widely available solution on the market using synthetic materials. These repairing patches are bonded on the structures’ surfaces to increase their strength against internal stresses, as well as protect them from external physico-chemical attacks, thereby limiting crack propagation.

ECG based Apnea Detection by Multirate Processing Hybrid of Wavelet-Empirical Decomposition Hjorth Features Extraction and Neural Networks
Sleep Apnea (SA) can cause health complications including heart stroke and neurological disorders. The Polysomnography (PSG) test can detect the severity of sleep disturbance. However, it is expensive and requires a dedicated sleep laboratory and expertise to examine the patients. Therefore, it is not available to a large population in developing countries. This leads to […]

A Novel Integration Technique for Optimal Location & Sizing of DG Units With Reconfiguration in Radial Distribution Networks Considering Reliability
This paper introduces an advanced approach for optimizing the distribution network reconfiguration (DNR) with the placement and sizing of multiple types of distributed generators (DGs). The method employs the ant colony optimization algorithm (ACOA), which is an innovative adaptive optimization algorithm, while also considering the system’s reliability. The primary objectives of the optimization problem are […]

ELSO: A Blockchain-Based Technique for a Reliable and Secure Healthcare Information Exchange
Nowadays, healthcare takes a great attention from people and governments due to the emergence of new diseases and viruses. Health Information Exchange (HIE) allows doctors, clinicians, and healthcare facilities (HCF) to exchange and share patient records according to patient permission. Unfortunately, the HIE systems suffer from several challenges such as security, privacy, latency, throughput, and […]

Fatigue Evaluation and Scheduling for Manual Tasks: A Break Planning Approach
The quality and time execution of any production task involving human operator depend on the state of the operator and its behaviour. Recently, several studies are interested in the modelling of human behaviour in industrial system to design human centred manufacturing system. In this context, this paper focus of the fatigue of operator in production […]

Towards a manufacturing optimization system through remote robot control system using hand movement
In recent times, there has been a notable shift in manual assembly tasks being replaced by robots. These robots are controlled by operators using keyboards. To enhance this practice, we have introduced a remote human-robot collaboration system. This system allows operators to remotely control robots using hand gestures, utilizing an online hand gesture recognition system. […]

An Enhanced Interface-Based Probabilistic Compositional Verification Approach
In this paper, we aim to advance the state of the art in the verification process of systems, predominantly modeled as Probabilistic Automata (PA). This model accommodates both nondeterministic and probabilistic behaviors. Our primary strategy to address the notorious state space explosion problem inherent in model checking is the adoption of abstraction and compositional verification […]

Reinforcement Learning for Optimal HVAC Control: from Theory to Real-world Applications
The HVAC system accounted for a significant portion of the building’s energy consumption, resulting in enormous CO2 emissions. Among the numerous HVAC control methods, reinforcement learning (RL) gives the ability to control complex systems without requiring an explicit model of the building’s thermal dynamics. This study conducted a concise review of previous research on the […]

Occupancy Prediction in Buildings Using Cascaded LSTM Model
Buildings are one of the prominent sectors among global primary energy consumption. A large portion of this energy consumption is influenced by occupancy interaction with the buildings. Occupancy prediction in buildings without intruding their privacy helps to enhance the building energy management. Due to the complex relations of the inputs and the temporal dependency, modeling […]

Indoor Air Temperature and Occupant Behavior in Classroom of higher education building in Mediterranean climate
Data collection Include the measurement of indoor and outdoor environmental parameters (air temperature and relative humidity) and occupant interactions with building systems (window and door status: open/closed, blind state, and thermostat/air-conditioning adjustment). The outdoor air temperature, relative humidity, and wind speed were collected as potential control variables to indicate different outdoor conditions. The indoor air […]
