Lean-BIM approach for improving the performance of a construction project in the design phase
Over the last decade, the construction industry has suffered from various issues affecting the planning processes, team management, and decision-making during the design phase. Today, the concepts of Lean construction and Building Information Modeling (BIM) overlap and bring solutions to all phases of a construction project. Numerous studies have shown that leveraging BIM data through […]

Design and Performance Analysis of Ultra-Wide Bandgap Power Devices-Based EV Fast Charger Using Bi-Directional Power Converters
A widespread introduction of electric vehicles would require an advanced enriched fast-charging infrastructure and battery technology. Currently used silicon (Si) based power electronic devices limit their efficiencies, power density, and switching frequency. Designing fast-charging stations using these materials is not suitable due to low breakdown potential, less thermal stability, and less power handling abilities. The […]

Mechanical tensile behaviour of cement paste/aggregate bond exposed to leaching
An experimental program is oriented to the mechanical behaviour of the Interfacial Transition Zone (ITZ) exposed to leaching, for a single mix. Leaching kinetics of the degraded depth, measured through grey level on cross sections, reveals a maximum gap of 10 % between ITZ and bulk cement paste. ITZ, with a main thickness of 15 […]

A Survey on Energy Storage: Techniques and Challenges
Intermittent renewable energy is becoming increasingly popular, as storing stationary and mobile energy remains a critical focus of attention. Although electricity cannot be stored on any scale, it can be converted to other kinds of energies that can be stored and then reconverted to electricity on demand. Such energy storage systems can be based on […]

An Efficient Approach for the Detection and Prevention of Gray-Hole Attacks in VANETs
Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks (VANETs) deliver a wide range of commercial as well as safety applications and further motivate the advancements of Internet of Vehicles (IoV), Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), and Vehicles to Everything (V2X) communication. However, due to their open, distributed, dynamic nature, and protocol design issues, VANETs are vulnerable to a variety of security […]

Energy Consumption Forecasting in a University Office by Artificial Intelligence Techniques: An Analysis of the Exogenous Data Effect on the Modeling
The forecasting of building energy consumption remains a challenging task because of the intricate management of the relevant parameters that can influence the performance of models. Due to the powerful capability of artificial intelligence (AI) in forecasting problems, it is deemed to be highly effective in this domain. However, achieving accurate predictions requires the extraction […]

Digital Twin, Virtual Reality and OPCUA-based architecture for pedagogical scenarios in Manufacturing and Computer Sciences curriculum
Whereas Digital Twin associated to Virtual Reality are powerful tools in industry, they are not commonly used in pedagogical scenarios since it implies using several standards and tools that are complex to understand, to setup, and so to massively deploy in a learning context. This problematic is explored in this paper by proposing an integrated […]

Investigation Properties of Pervious and Water-Retaining Recycled Concrete to Mitigate Urban Heat Island Phenomena
The urban heat island (UHI) effect poses significant challenges to urban environmental quality and public health. Over the decades, research efforts have been made to develop various UHI mitigation strategies, including pavement materials, such as, water-retentive pavement, reflective pavement, and pervious concrete. This paper focuses on the improvement of the hygric and water retention properties […]

The role of institutional factors in the economic growth process: theoretical justification and empirical application to DCs
Jusqu’à nos jours, plusieurs études montrent que les institutions jouent un rôle crucial dans le processus de croissance économique en exerçant un effet positif à long terme sur l’activité économique et qu’un environnement institutionnel inadéquat peut constituer un obstacle à la croissance et que sa réforme devrait être privilégiée. Dans le même sens et en […]
