Covariates influence optimal camera‐trap survey design for occupancy modelling

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We investigated the impact of covariates (e.g., habitat quality, temperature) on the optimal design of camera trap surveys to estimate species occupancy. Using simulations of a virtual species, we found that increasing the number of cameras consistently reduced error across a range of covariate effects.

On an Aggregation Theory for Indicators Expressing Behaviors of Complex Systems With an Application to Sustainability

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Certain attributes of large‐scale complex systems are often expressed through sets of indicators. For example, the sustainability of an entity, be it a nation, a city, an energy system, a corporation etc., can be effectively represented by indicators and corresponding data series.

Analysis of Thermal Dynamics of Floating Photovoltaic Systems

open access: yesSolar RRL, EarlyView.
A scalable methodology couples computational fluid dynamics‐derived wind decay functions with a dynamic heat transfer model to capture spatial temperature variations across large floating photovoltaic systems and is validated with data from the Netherlands floating photovoltaic systems (FPV) site.

Aligning Real‐Time Recurrence Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulations with Plant Data for the Ruhrstahl–Heraeus Degassing Process of Steel

open access: yessteel research international, EarlyView.
Uncertainties exist in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling of complex metallurgical processes, even when partly validated by laboratory experiments. rCFD enables computationally efficient prediction of long‐term RH degassing and can be adapted to vary flow conditions.

Experimental study on the impact of traffic‐induced vibrations on early‐age concrete

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The COUNT (Concreting under Traffic) research project systematically examined the effects of traffic‐induced vibrations on early‐age, hardening concrete—a critical issue for bridge construction and renovation. Traffic closures are often imposed during such projects to mitigate potential damage from vibrations.

Toward Explainable Engineering Decisions: Pursuing a Descriptive Decision Theory at the Intersection of Analysis, Judgment, and Conviction

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Engineers design the technical systems that define and sustain our society. The decision‐making scenarios they face require both quantitative analyses and the consideration of qualitative factors, which are shaped by deeply held beliefs, values, and societal contexts. However, existing engineering decision‐making models, primarily derived from
