The shortage of therapists required for the rehabilitation of stroke patients, together with the patients’ lack of motivation in regular therapy, creates the need for a robotic rehabilitation platform. While studies on shared control architectu...
This paper presents a comprehensive review and theoretical analysis of integrating Cyclic Solvent Injection (CSI) with multilateral well (MLW) technologies to enhance heavy oil recovery. Given that many MLW configurations inherently exhibit symmetric...
Indoor positioning in aircraft cabins presents fundamental challenges arising from severe multipath propagation, non-line-of-sight conditions, and metallic fuselage geometry that degrade radio-based positioning methods. This study validates a residua...
This study expands on prior research by generalising the machine tool integrated inverse multilateration methodology to evaluate ambient thermal effects on medium- and large-sized machine tools in industrial environments. This method integrates an ab...
More and more microgrids, energy storage systems, and other emerging entities are integrated into active distribution networks. However, a microgrid is characterized by autonomous operation and privacy protection. The rapid development of equipment s...
Global trade governance is being reshaped as multilateral rulemaking and dispute settlement face persistent constraints. However, it remains unclear whether this development signals institutional decline or a layered allocation of governance function...
The present article examines Anglo–Soviet architectural relations during the Second World War, the peculiarities of the perception of foreign experience, and the mutual professional interests. This paper aims to find evidence of multilateral an...
Collaborative Model-based Systems Engineering between companies is becoming increasingly important. The utilization of the modeling possibilities of the standard language SysML v2 and the multilateral data exchange via Dataspaces open new possibiliti...
The growing inability of the World Trade Organization (WTO) to conclude new multilateral agreements has prompted groups of like-minded Members to experiment with alternative forms of trade cooperation. The Agreement on Electronic Commerce (ECA), conc...
The most recent global food crisis has forced development agencies in the global North to rethink the nexus between agricultural development, food aid, and food security, and how development assistance strategies can enhance food security to more eff...
Cooperative aerial multi-robot systems (MRS) are increasingly being considered for missions in uncertain and dynamic environments, where reliable coordination must be maintained despite sensor failures, external disturbances, and limited onboard comp...
Municipal leadership has become increasingly central to addressing global challenges such as war-related displacement, migration governance, and climate change, reflecting a broader shift toward polycentric and networked forms of multilateralism. Thi...
An effective earthquake early warning system requires rapid and reliable earthquake source detection. Despite the numerous proposed epicenter localization solutions in recent years, their utilization within the Internet of Things (IoT) framework and...
Effective access to and stimulation of hydrocarbon reservoirs increasingly rely on combining well-architecture solutions with stimulation technologies. This study assesses directional drilling and multiwell pad systems for improving reservoir access...
The current fragmentation of the global order, accompanied by the collapse of multilateral trade mechanisms and protectionist export restrictions, has exposed decentralized states with complex constitutional structures to extreme material vulnerabili...
GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) positioning is not available underwater due to the very short range of electromagnetic waves in the sea water medium. In this article a LBL (Long Base Line) acoustic repeater system of the GNSS positioning is...
Self-calibrated Acoustic Local Positioning Systems (ALPS) generally require a high consumption of hardware and software resources to obtain the user’s position at an acceptable update rate. To address this limitation, this work proposes a self-...
This article explores the role of multilateral development banks (MDBs) in originating norms of sustainable banking that have attracted and supported green private finance, a role not widely known in the management literature. Any prospect of achievi...
Indoor localization is one of the most important topics in wireless navigation systems. The large number of applications that rely on indoor positioning makes advancements in this field important. Fingerprinting is a popular technique that is widely...
Syria’s domestic dissent created the foundation for the country’s civil conflict, where foreign actors have favored the different sides since the 2011 Arab Spring. Iran was invited to play an active role in the conflict owing to the decli...
Accurate indoor localization is essential for navigation, monitoring, and industrial applications, especially in environments with Non-line of sight (NLOS) conditions. An indoor positioning system consists of fixed physical nodes, referred to as anch...
Mosques, revered as sacred spaces, are distinguished by their sustainable architectural designs. A critical aspect of these designs is the implementation of daylighting strategies, essential for ensuring adequate light levels, particularly for readin...
User location has emerged as a pivotal factor in human-centered environments, driving applications like tracking, navigation, healthcare, and emergency response that align with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). However, accurate indoor localizati...
The increasing interconnectivity and digital transformation of Communication, Navigation, and Surveillance (CNS) systems have expanded their attack surface, rendering traditional perimeter-based security models inadequate for protecting these critica...
A study for genomic variation that may reflect putative selective signaling and be associated with economically important traits is instrumental for obtaining information about demographic and selection history in domestic animal species and populati...
Lagos, Nigeria (population c.18.3–25 million), occupies a position of compound exposure at the intersection of accelerating climate hazards, recurring displacement and urban fragility, and governance constraints that have amplified rather than...
