Digital documentation of railway tunnel inspection in Austria

open access: yesCivil Engineering Design, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 3-8, March 2025.
Abstract Infrastructure, especially railway tunnels, require continuous inspection to ensure their safety. Furthermore, the detection of damages at an early stage can improve their service life. These tasks represent a major challenge for those involved and the tunnel down time is a disruption in operation.

Framing Modern Slavery: Do Stakeholders Talk Past Each Other?

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Administrative Sciences / Revue Canadienne des Sciences de l'Administration, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Modern slavery literature has thus far mostly adopted a downstream perspective, in the sense that researchers investigated corporate actors' responses after the enactment of transparency legislation. The common finding is that corporate disclosure is poor and ineffective, contributing to a failure to eradicate modern slavery.

Automatic parameter update algorithm for regression models to estimate remaining useful life: Application in an offshore natural gas dehydration unit

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Remaining useful life (RUL) analysis of equipment prevents failures and assists in maintenance to address impending failures. To achieve this, the advancement of degradation can be measured through a determinant variable. This work presents a new methodology for estimating the number of remaining cycles (NRC), or RUL, of equipment in cyclic ...

Integrated and closed‐loop biorefinery strategies for efficient waste valorization and biofuel production

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Advancements in biofuel production technologies are essential for reducing global dependence on fossil fuels and addressing their overexploitation. Many valuable components of biomass, such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, remain underused in traditional biorefineries, which typically rely on a single feedstock to produce a primary ...

Incorporating ethylene glycol into hydrophilic poly(ether‐b‐amide) membranes for enhanced gas dehumidification performance

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Using ethylene glycol to enhance water vapour permeation for gas dehumidification. Abstract In the present study, ethylene glycol (EG) was incorporated into hydrophilic poly(ether‐b‐amide) matrix membranes to enhance the membrane performance for gas dehumidification (e.g., H2O/N2, H2O/CH4, and H2O/CO2 separations). Exploiting EG as a hygroscopic agent,

Intelligent online process fault diagnosis through integrating Andrews function, autoencoder, and neural networks

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper proposes an online process fault diagnosis scheme that integrates principal component analysis, Andrews function, autoencoder, and multilayer feedforward neural network to enhance the fault diagnosis performance. Useful features are extracted from the online monitoring data by using Andrews function (also known as Andrews plot).
