Infrastructure Asset Management was first adopted in 1980s for challenges faced by the utilities, road and rail transport systems, mining, process and manufacturing industries in asset life cycle value optimization. International standards ISO 55000 and PAS 55 were subsequently developed to provide a basis for a structured methodology in the development of Asset Management System.…

This paper presents the development and design of a methodology based on fuzzy logic to control an indoor mobile robot for a complete navigation in an unknown environment. The methodology incorporates two basic behaviors, namely: reaching the goal and avoiding obstacles. The obstacle avoidance behavior is treated using wall-following scheme based on an Interval Type-2…

In this article, we give a brief overview of future trends and corresponding stakeholder requests regarding the design of automotive electric and electronic (e/e)-architectures. While today’s optimization is mainly based on the static design criteria of unit costs and weight, three dynamic design criteria are considered decisive factors in the future: voltage stability, vehicle energy…

Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) is a high effective learning algorithm for the single hidden layer feed forward neural networks. Compared with the existing neural network learning algorithm it solves the slow training speed and over-fitting problems. It has been used in different fields and applications such as biomedical engineering, computer vision, remote sensing, chemical process…
