ADAPT: An Autonomous Forklift for Construction Site Operation

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient material logistics are critical in controlling costs and schedules in the construction industry. However, manual material handling remains prone to inefficiencies, delays, and safety risks. Autonomous forklifts offer a solution to streamline on‐site logistics, reducing reliance on human operators and mitigating labor shortages.

From Plot to Block: Participatory Land Use for Climate‐Resilient Detached Housing in Finland

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how urban planning in Finland is adapting to climate change, focusing on the practical challenges planners face in single‐family housing areas. It draws on participatory workshops with municipal planners in Pori and Joensuu, where three planning tools—green factor metrics, impermeable surface limits, and the 3–30‐300 ...

Effect of Aging on the Properties of Asphalt and Asphalt Mixtures

open access: yesIngenieria y Universidad, 2015
This article presents the results of the analysis of the effect of aging on the properties of asphalt and asphalt mixtures. The objective of this study was to compare the properties of the original asphalt and aged asphalt and the dynamic modulus of asphalt mixtures. The long-term aging was simulated by using Pressure Asphalt Vessel (PAV). Marshall and

AI‐Driven Circular Construction Waste Management for Advancing Sustainable Development

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Construction and demolition waste (C&DW) represents up to 40% of global solid waste, posing a significant barrier to achieving circular economy (CE) objectives and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 11 and SDG 12. However, construction waste management (CWM) systems remain constrained by fragmented data environments ...

Bio-asphalt on Asphalt Mixture containing RAP

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2019
Abstract This study investigates the use of bio-asphalt, derived from coconut shell (BioCS) and straw (BioST) as an additive to determine its benefits in asphalt mixtures containing reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP). The study was conducted by determining and comparing the laboratory performance properties of four mixtures and the binders

Human‐Centered Monitoring of Asphalt Emissions: Linking Exposure, Climate, and Health

open access: yesSafety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
A human‐centered framework linking heat‐driven asphalt emissions to real‐world exposure, biological response, and functional health outcomes, highlighting how climate‐sensitive infrastructure can become a measurable, manageable source of urban environmental and health risk. ABSTRACT Urban infrastructure shapes environmental quality not only through its

Urbanisation and human activities influence the co‐occurrence of red squirrels Sciurus vulgaris and meso‐carnivores in Berlin, Germany

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Urban expansion is a major driver of habitat fragmentation, shrinking wildlife habitat, and restricting wildlife movements and activity patterns. In this novel environment, species must adapt to the new composition of wildlife communities. For example, red squirrels Sciurus vulgaris are commonly found in urban environments, while their potential ...
