Automated detection system of metro tunnel lining crack using dynamic snake convolution
Abstract Inspecting defects in tunnel linings is a crucial part of tunnel maintenance work. Traditional tunnel inspection methods are generally inefficient, making it difficult to complete intensive inspection tasks and provide detailed characteristic data of cracks within the limited maintenance time. In this research, a deep learning–driven automatic

Abstract Horizontal and vertical curves significantly affect crash risk due to their impact on driver behavior, vehicle dynamics, and sight distance. However, their combined effects and spatial interactions remain underexplored in large‐scale safety assessments. To address limitations in high‐resolution geometric data and insufficient spatial modeling,

Staged ecologies: Aesthetics, nature and infrastructure in the late‐modern metropolis
Short Abstract This paper examines the relationship between urban nature and landscape design within a £1.5 billion regeneration project that is currently unfolding in Thamesmead, a town in south‐east London. It develops the notion of ‘staged ecologies’ to examine how urban nature is being spatially and aesthetically arranged across the town's ...

Meteorological Tsunamis: From Local Hazard to Global Relevance
Abstract Research on meteorological tsunamis or meteotsunamis—long ocean waves in the tsunami frequency band generated by propagating atmospheric disturbances which resonantly enhance ocean waves—has grown significantly in recent decades. This expansion is due to progress in (a) ocean and atmospheric measurements, including advanced instrumentation ...
