The use of emergency departments (EDs) has increased during the COVID-19 outbreak, thereby evidencing the key role of these units in the overall response of healthcare systems to the current pandemic scenario. Nevertheless, several disruptions have e...
Prefabricated building is an efficient building mode. Compared with the traditional building mode, the prefabricated building has advantages of less pollution, high construction efficiency, being more labor-saving, and economy, which is in line with...
Carbon emissions and environmental protection issues have become the pressure from the international community during the current transitional stage of China’s energy transformation. China has set a macro carbon emission target, which will redu...
Hydrogen is a potential source of imminent clean energy in the future, with its transportation playing a crucial role in allowing large-scale deployment. The challenge lies in selecting an effective, sustainable, and scalable transportation alternati...
Rapid urbanization to meet the needs of the growing population has led to several challenges such as pollution, increased and congested traffic, poor sustainability, and impact on the ecological environment. The conception of smart cities comprising...
The coal gasifier is the core unit of the coal gasification system. Due to its exposure to high temperatures, high pressures, and aggressive media, it is highly susceptible to serious accidents in the event of failure. Therefore, it is important for...
Blockchain technology has received wide attention during recent years, and has huge potential to transform and improve supply chain management. However, its implementation in the SSCM (Sustainable Supply Chain Management) strategy is sophisticated, a...
In order to effectively prevent the occurrence of risky accidents during bridge construction, this study proposes a bridge construction risk assessment method based on variable weight theory and the cloud model theory. Firstly, the fishbone diagram w...
Building a resilient and stable supply chain has become an important strategy for many countries. Studies have shown that the application of additive manufacturing (AM) technology in construction can help offset the negative impact of “black sw...
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is a quite high nutrient and widespread legume that is consumed globally. Similar to many plants, chickpea is sensitive to environmental stresses. The major goal of the breeders is to achieve the most tolerant cultivars....
Slope instability may cause severe casualties, property losses, and ecological damage. To accurately evaluate slope stability grades and mitigate geological hazards, a dynamic stability assessment method based on variable weight theory and trapezoida...
In recent years, the disruption of the prefabricated building supply chain has led to increased construction period delays and cost overruns, limiting the development and popularization of prefabricated buildings in China. Therefore, this study estab...
