In recent years, the applications in the field of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) systems has procured research interests among various communities. One of the primary factors being, thinking beyond the box of what could UAV system bring to the table other than military applications? Evidence to any answer for this question is the current day…

In an intelligent transportation system (ITS), time is a big challenge since processing a huge amount of data in a short time is very difficult, especially when the processed data is heterogeneous, consisting of a mixture of emergency data, normal data, and noise. In an ITS, an ambulance is one of the priority vehicles, and…

Online transportation in Indonesia is a new trend of transportation that is currently used among the lower to upper society. The change in behavior began in 2011 and is growing to this day, The comments that are growing on social media are very important for the online transportation company the negative comments lower the level…

The integrating model becomes one of key trends in engineering design. The more the product has functional specifications, the more the industrial consumer apply in many fields. In this paper, a fusion design of architecture platform for autonomous system is demonstrated. It is greater due to combining the specifications of various types in commercial market…

In this paper, a secure elevator handling system is presented to enable a flexible movement of wheeled mobile robots among laboratories distributed in different floors. The automated handling system consists mainly of an ADAM module which has the ability to call the elevator to the robot’s current floor and to request the destination floor. The…

Cooperative Intelligent Transportation Systems (C-ITS) are gaining ground and currently are almost part of our everyday life. A C-ITS environment can provide numerous services that soon will become essential to roads’ users. The latter resides in improvement of road safety, entertainment, and commercial services. However, in order to provide such services, the C-ITS environment needs…

The paper explores an issue of efficient public transportation network design as a part of the urban developing process. Having data about everyday residents travelling inside of an urban area, we can consider this data as people’s requirements for the public transport system. We propose a novel method for initial public transportation network design based…

In automated working environments, mobile robots can be used for different purposes such as material handling, domestic services, and objects transportation. This work presents a grasping and placing operation for multiple labware and tube racks in life science laboratories using the H20 mobile robots. The H20 robot has dual arms where each arm consists of…

Mobile robots can be used to perform transportation tasks for different objects. These tasks have to be implemented carefully. Therefore, an accurate approach for object recognition and position estimation is required. This work presents a concept for identification and position estimation of multiple labware. These labware, which contain chemical and biological components, have to be…

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.…

The integration of distributed energy resources has ushered in a host of complex challenges, significantly impacting power quality in distribution networks. This work studies these challenges, exploring issues such as voltage fluctuations and escalating power losses caused by the integration of solar systems and electric vehicle (EV) chargers. We present a robust methodology focused on…

The attributes of the vehicle routing problem (VRP) are as many additional characteristics or constraints which aim to better take into account the specificities of real application cs. The variants of the VRP thus formed are the support of an extremely rich literature, comprising an immense variety of heuristics. This article constitutes an industrial application…

Currently, the quality and quantity of product must be inspected before transporting. Currently the popular unsealing box product inspecting is performed by weighing the box where the errors occur according to the tolerance of the weighting machine and tolerance weight of the product. On the other hand, the quantity of product can be inspected automatically…

Globally, road transportation has become one of the most reliable means of moving goods and services from one place to the other. It has contributed immensely to the standard of living and modern civilization. However, this means of transportation is characterised by some issues which are poised to be harmful to the human population if…

In complex swarm robotic applications that perform different tasks such as transportation and observation, robot swarms should construct and maintain a formation to adapt and move as a single large-scale robot. For example, transportation and observation tasks require unique robot swarms with either high densities to support the weight of the transported objects or low…

Our world is characterised by uncertainty and complex, relational structures that carry temporal information, yielding large dynamic probabilistic relational models at the centre of many applications. We consider an example from logistics in which the transportation of cargoes using vessels (objects) driven by the amount of supply and the potential to generate revenue (relational) changes…

The following document analyzes the current situation in mobility and intelligent transportation in Colombia and in some cities around the world. Presenting several cases of success and implementation of technologies and protocols that seek to improve the problems with the greatest impact in today’s cities, such as traffic congestion, environmental impact, accessibility, and road safety.…

The behavior of rivers’ hydrology and flow under changing climate has been an objective of interest for long time. In this study the impacts of climate change on streamflow of the Arkansas River will be investigated. The paper is an extension of work originally presented in ASET conference in Dubai. The Arkansas River is a…

Today, the costs of most Renewable Energy (RE) technologies especially hydrogen energy technologies such as fuel cells, are still beyond the means of poorer economies in developing countries. Hence, there is little public awareness and local expertise in RE in these countries and even lesser in hydrogen energy. To solve this problem, it is important…

Autonomous vehicles (AVs) technology is expected to provide many benefits for the society such as providing safe transportation to the community and reducing the number of accidents on the roads. With the emergence of AVs, the conventional safety infrastructure in which humans drive their vehicles will need to be upgraded in order to take full…

Assessing academic performance is a common way of evaluating and assessing the abilities of students in tertiary institutions. Usually it is practically performed based on the cumulative grade point average (GPA) at the end of each semester passed. Unwittingly there are many factors that are able to influence student performance results apart from GPA as…
