An expert confidence index is proposed for the fuzzification in probability assessment of basic risk factors, aiming to ensure the reliability of collected data during the expert investigation. A fuzzy-based decision approach, with the capacity of forward reasoning, sensitivity analysis and backward reasoning, is developed based on Bayesian inference. The safety assurance progress is extended to the entire life cycle of risk-prone events, including the pre-accident, during-construction continuous and post-accident control. A typical hazard concerning the tunnel leakage in the Wuhan Yangtze Metro Tunnel construction is presented in a case study. The results demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed method and its application potential. The proposed method can be used as a decision support tool to provide guidelines for safety assurance in metro construction, and thus increase the likelihood of a successful project in a complex environment.</style></abstract><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sent Istvan University Ybl Miklos Faculty, Budapest</style></publisher><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Creative Construction 2013 Conference, July 6-9, Budapest</style></notes></record><record><source-app name="Bibcite" version="8.x">Drupal-Bibcite</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">L.

The potential safety risk of a specific nearby building is assessed within four different risk levels, with the spatial neighbor relation (hazard parameter) and the building health condition (vulnerability component) taken into account. Compared with the traditional two-stage approach, a reasonable balance between the system safety and cost constrains is reached in the developed systematic approach, where the safety risk assessment is added in the first stage, and the assessed safety risk level acts as a decisive role in the depth of the subsequent two-stage numerical analyses. It is suggested that numerical simulation analyses should be employed in the situation where the existing building lies in a risk level of III (Medium risk) or IV (High risk). A case concerning the protection of a five-story framed building adjacent to a twin-tunnel in China is utilized to verify the applicability oh the proposed approach. The impact of both the tunnel excavation on the soil displacement and building foundation deformation is further analyzed in details. Results demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed approach, as well as its application potential. The proposed approach can be used by practitioners in the industry to provide guidelines on guaranteeing the system safety of adjacent buildings in tunneling environments. At the same time, the analysis cost can be greatly reduced, especially when a large number of existing buildings adjacent to tunneling excavation need to be protected.</style></abstract><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language></record><record><source-app name="Bibcite" version="8.x">Drupal-Bibcite</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">L.

The effects have resonated in various disciplines, such as organizational efficiency, communication approach, and employee behavior. However, a comprehensive and in-depth review of the ICT applied in the AEC organization is missing from the current literature. To fill this gap, this paper presents an in-depth review of mainstream studies of ICT-supported AEC organizations published in last 15years (1998-2012). A total of 145 articles from 12 construction and IT-related journals are identified and have been thoroughly reviewed. This review is divided into four parts: (1)synthesis and general trend of existing literature; (2)lessons learned from ICT practical implementation; (3)enabling technologies of ICT applications; and (4)ICT-induced organizational outcomes. Throughout this paper the authors summarize and categorize developments to date, discuss the advances and limitations of the use of ICT, and propose key areas for future research. This review can become a foundation for the classification and integration of the state of the art in ICT research on behalf of AEC organizations.

However, there are several technical limitations including signal interference caused by the characteristics of wireless sensors, reliability degradation in wireless communication and uncertainty of configuring a network topology. This may lead to a decline in reliability and performance of real-time data acquisition methods. Thus, the paper developed a model capable of predicting reliability performance of wireless signals applied to civil infrastructures. The measured and predicted values of wireless signals are compared and analyzed through a field experiment carried out in an actual bridge to verify the prediction model suggested herein. As a result of the analysis, the prediction model demonstrated a variation up to 8.4% compared with actual measurements, proving the high accuracy of the prediction model. Furthermore, the reception rate at short distances within a 5 m radius is at least 90%, showing a highly reliable reception capacity. When this is applied to monitoring systems in the construction sector, it is believed that performance and reliability of such system can be secured.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

A BIM-based Risk Identification Expert System (B-RIES) composed of three main built-in subsystems: BIM extraction, knowledge base management, and risk identification subsystems, is proposed. The engineering parameter information related to risk factors is first extracted from BIM of a specific project where the Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) standard plays a bridge role between the BIM data and tunnel construction safety risks. An integrated knowledge base, consisting of fact base, rule base and case base, is then established to systematize the fragmented explicit and tacit knowledge. Finally, a hybrid inference approach, with case-based reasoning and rule-based reasoning combined, is developed to improve the flexibility and comprehensiveness of the system reasoning capacity. B-RIES is used to overcome low-efficiency in traditional information extraction, reduce the dependence on domain experts, and facilitate knowledge sharing and communication among dispersed clients and domain experts. The identification of a safety hazard regarding the water gushing in one metro station of China is presented in a case study. The results demonstrate the feasibility of B-RIES and its application effectiveness.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

precursors of accidents in the construction industry. Given the complexity of near misses, seeking regularities in time series of near misses is almost impossible. We present a human dynamics model based on near-miss data to reveal common dynamic features of near-miss accidents that result from unsafe behavior of construction workers. To validate the model, we conducted an empirical case study based on unsafe behavior related to near misses from a database in the Early Warning System for Safety Risk Management in Wuhan Metro Construction, created by the Huazhong University of Science and Technology. Heavy-tailed distribution and approximate power-law distribution are observed in the inter-event time series of near misses, rather than being randomly distributed in time in current models. The strong burst and weak memory phenomena were observed in the whole, annual, and categorized inter-event time distributions of near misses. Moreover, the results showed a non-trivial, monotonous increase of the power-law exponent with the activity of different construction site in near misses, thus indicating that heterogeneity and complexity exist in general. We defined a new safety performance metric that is more reliable than the number of near misses and validated this performance metric by using expert assessment results of metro construction sites. Furthermore, we proposed further research prospects on human dynamics in construction safety behavior.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

Substantial research efforts have been devoted to the field over the past decades, while the application rate at the construction sites is still limited. Although various reviews have summarized the research topics and future trends in this field, few research efforts have been made on a consideration of both academic research and practical application in the industry. Focusing on high-rise building construction, this study explores the development of both academic research and practical application of automation and robotics based on literature and market review. Scientometric and critical literature reviews were conducted to identify and analyze the development of key research areas based on academic publications from the 1980s to present. In the meantime, the development of basic technologies was summarized. The market review surveyed on existing products and developers of construction automation and robotics. By comparing the results of the literature review and market review, four development patterns of academic research and product application were identified, i.e., simultaneous development led by the same party, development at a similar pace with the two sides taking the lead in different aspects, academic research providing basic technologies for product development, and available technologies in academic research with no products found. Then three gaps in this field, i.e., the gap between academic research and products, the gap between products and application, and the gap between the construction industry and the robotics industry, were discussed with corresponding suggestions to narrow the gaps, followed by an outlook for future directions. This study contributes to the knowledge body by identifying and analyzing the key research areas and the development gaps systematically.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

Moreover, on some construction sites where space is limited, there are not adequate storage areas for centralized stacking of components and frequent changes in spatial state. Existing studies have investigated site layout planning for temporary facilities including arranging a storage area for the same type of material, which still have limitations in solving the above problems. This study proposes a novel and flexible arrangement method for incoming components in limited site space. This method is non-centralized and adaptive to the dynamic change of the actual component requirements based on construction activities and the real-time storage area availability. Therefore, a construction components storage areas planning (CCSAP) model is developed for dynamic allocation of construction components storage areas. Building information modeling (BIM) can be used to generate the material requirements planning before construction according to the actual construction activities. Real-time spatial recognition is a critical step for dynamic allocation of construction components storage areas because no such research has been done. This paper firstly presents an imaging technology with a low-rank matrix to identify on-site unoccupied locations automatically in real time. In addition, genetic algorithms (GA) consider two types of decision variables: actual components supply and real-time space availability. Finally, a dynamic visualization platform is built for planning construction components storage areas. An implementation example is demonstrated to validate principles and this model and shows a 21.9% reduction in the handling cost and a 19.4% increase in the construction efficiency compared with conventional methods.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

Building Information Modeling (BIM)-based collaborative design work. It proposes a novel algorithm termed node2vec-GMM combining a graph embedding algorithm named node2vec and a clustering method named Gaussian mixture model (GMM) to cluster designers within a network into several subgroups, and then makes cluster analysis. Its superiority lies in the efficient feature learning ability to preserve network structure and the powerful clustering ability to tackle uncertainty and visualize results, which can directly return the cluster embedding. As a case study, a directional network with 68 nodes (designers) and 436 ties (design task transmissions) is constructed based on retrieved data from 4GB real BIM event logs. The node2vec learns and projects the network feature representation into a 128-dimensional vector, which is learned by GMM to discover three possible clusters owning 15, 26, and 27 closely linked designers. Analysis of each cluster is performed from node importance measurement and link prediction to identify information spreading and designers’ roles within clusters. Our new algorithm node2vec-GMM is proven to better improve clustering quality than other state-of-the-art methods by at least 6.0% Adjusted Rand Index and 13.4% Adjusted Mutual Information. Overall, the designer clustering process provides managers with data-driven support in both monitoring the whole course of the BIM-based design and making reliable decisions to increase collaboration opportunities.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

The selection of qualified construction contractor has been generally formulated and addressed as a multi-attribute group decision-making problem. However, few existing studies have taken the reasoning logic pattern in human cognition process and the compensatory among attributes into account. Therefore, a two-stage logic scoring of preference-ELECTRE III-based approach is established for the management and manipulation of bidder selection. In a bid to facilitate expert evaluation articulation, alternative-attribute assessments in this approach take the form of generalized comparative linguistic expressions, which are subsequently converted into possibility-distribution-based hesitant fuzzy linguistic term set via the similarity measure-based generation approach to enhance information quality and reliability. Then, nonlinear optimization-based direction rules are introduced to advance the automatic minimum-distance-based consensus reaching model and based on which, the individual semantic-embedded assessments are algorithmically adjusted to reach acceptable consensus. Furthermore, the expert and attribute importance degrees are extracted from both semantic and formal logic aspects, and the modified individual assessments are gathered by integrating the two-stage logic scoring of preference aggregation structure and the ELECTRE III method. The present approach provides a solution to bid evaluation problems considering the reasoning logic pattern in human cognition process and the compensatory among attributes. A practical case study and a comparative analysis are performed to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the established multi-attribute group decision-making approach.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

While great efforts have been concentrating on the interpretation and the implementation of the ‘smartness’, the incentives for SC development are ignored. Understanding the incentives would clarify the goals of SC development and thereby boost its development efficiency. By exploring existing researches and cases of Nanjing, China, 15 factors were identified using a proposed physical-human society-cyber (P-H-C) space model. A structured questionnaire survey was conducted among different stakeholders in Nanjing to investigate their attitudes towards these factors. In factor analysis, these factors are grouped into three dimensions: technology push, government pull, and user-driven. Results show that currently SC development is mainly pushed by the technical progress and innovations. Meanwhile, government plays a significant role in pulling SC development especially at the initial stage. In addition, requirements to enhance the experience of end-users including government, companies, citizens etc. are critical for SC development. This paper provides insight on the incentives of SC development, research findings could be used as guidelines for the SC development in cities worldwide.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language></record><record><source-app name="Bibcite" version="8.x">Drupal-Bibcite</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Xijun Yao</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hsi-Hsien Wei</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Igal Shohet</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mirosław Skibniewski</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Assessment of Terrorism Risk to Critical Infrastructures: The Case of a Power-Supply Substation</style></title></titles><keywords/><dates><year><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2020</style></year><pub-dates><date><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">oct</style></date></pub-dates></dates><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Applied Sciences</style></secondary-title><urls><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://www.mdpi.com/2076-3417/10/20/7162</style></urls><electronic-resource-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.3390/app10207162</style></electronic-resource-num><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7162</style></pages><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10</style></volume><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;This paper presents a novel approach for estimating the vulnerability level of critical infrastructure confronting potential terrorist threats and assessing the usefulness of various protection strategies for critical infrastructure (CI). A methodology, utilizing a combination of topological network analysis and game theory, is presented to evaluate the effectiveness of protection strategies for certain components in the infrastructure under various attack scenarios. This paper focuses on protective strategies that are based on different attack scenarios as well as on the connectivity of the critical infrastructure components. The methodology proposed allows optimization of protection strategies in terms of investment in critical infrastructure protection in order to reduce expenditures on local infrastructure protection or on a single critical infrastructure for small projects. A case study of a power-supply substation is included to validate the analytical framework. The results indicate that the framework is highly applicable to other types of critical infrastructures facing similar threats. The results suggest that when only terrorist attacks are considered, improving the robustness of CI has a much higher effectiveness and efficiency than improving CI redundancy. The research methodology in this paper can be applied to a wide range of critical infrastructures and systems that may be at risk from manmade extreme events.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;This book highlights the latest technologies and applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the domain of construction engineering and management. The construction industry worldwide has been a late bloomer to adopting digital technology, where construction projects are predominantly managed with a heavy reliance on the knowledge and experience of construction professionals. AI works by combining large amounts of data with fast, iterative processing, and intelligent algorithms (e.g., neural networks, process mining, and deep learning), allowing the computer to learn automatically from patterns or features in the data. It provides a wide range of solutions to address many challenging construction problems, such as knowledge discovery, risk estimates, root cause analysis, damage assessment and prediction, and defect detection. A tremendous transformation has taken place in the past years with the emerging applications of AI.

These outcomes impact seriously the ecosystems and human health. In order to promote the sustainable performance of building sector, the widely adoption of sustainable building materials has been considered as one of the most promising ways toward this endeavor. This paper aims at addressing the problem of sustainable building material selection (SBMS) under uncertain context by developing an integrated multi-criteria large-group decision-making framework. In the proposed framework, the assessment information is characterised in the form of Improved Basic Uncertain Linguistic Information (IBULI), which incorporates reliable degrees of decision experts that can accurately quantify subjective assessment information provided under uncertainty. The weights of assessment criteria for SBMS are determined by the Quality Function Deployment-based method that is capable of accommodating the influences of multiple stakeholders and the fields of conflicts amongst them. Subsequently, the assessment information given by a large-group of decision experts are aggregated by IBULI-aggregation operators guided by an IBULI-based correlation- and consensus-driven clustering method, which achieves the classification of large-scale decision experts and the satisfied consensus level simultaneously. The selection of sustainable building materials is eventually accomplished by the IBULI-based Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution method. Finally, an illustrative example accompanied by sensitivity and comparative analyses is performed to verify the rationality and feasibility of the proposed model.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

It merges as a new way to provide a systematic view and complementary information of COVID-19 progression in the US, enabling evidence-based responses towards pandemic intervention and prevention. To begin with, the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) varimax is adopted to fuse observed time-series data about the pandemic evolution in each state across the US. Then, relationships between the pandemic progress of two individual states are measured by different synchrony metrics, which can then be mapped into networks under unique topological characteristics. Lastly, the hidden knowledge in the established networks can be revealed from different perspectives by network structure measurement, community detection, and online random forest, which helps to inform data-driven decisions for battling the pandemic. It has been found that states gathered in the same community by diffusion entropy reducer (DER) are prone to be geographically close and share a similar pattern and tendency of COVID-19 evolution. Social factors regarding the political party, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), and population density are possible to be significantly associated with the two detected communities within a constructed network. Moreover, the cluster-specific predictor based on online random forest and sliding window is proven useful in dynamically capturing and predicting the epidemiological trends for each community, which can reach the highest.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

Based on the current situation of tertiary hospitals in central China providing digital health services via social media, we used the Cronbach and Bayesian Best and Worst methods to evaluate the quality of hospital digital health services and conduct an empirical study of several hospitals. Based on the results of the empirical study, we propose a path for constructing a digital health service platform, suggesting that hospitals focus on building business function services of social media and accelerate the development of Internet hospitals. Hospitals should also improve the operation and maintenance of social media, optimize the intelligence of online guidance, and simplify the design logic of function menus. In terms of content information services, hospitals need to design targeted content according to the characteristics of different social media, improve content quality, and ensure the appropriate proportion of various types of information. With such measures, hospitals can guide users to use social media through business function services and retain users through content information services to increase the influence of hospitals and the quality of social health welfare.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

However, there is still more to be done to establish the relationship between supervised construction workers and their essential personal protective equipment, like hard hats. A deep learning method combining object detection, head center localization, and simple rule-based reasoning is proposed in this article. In tests, this solution surpassed the previous methods based on the relative bounding box position of different instances and direct detection of hard hat wearers and non-wearers. Achieving MS COCO style overall AP of 67.5% compared to 66.4% and 66.3% achieved by the approaches mentioned above, with class-specific AP for hard hat non-wearers of 64.1% compared to 63.0% and 60.3%. The results show that using deep learning methods with a humanly interpretable rule-based algorithm is better suited for detecting hard hat non-wearers.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

Moreover, existing research studies rarely explore the impact of digitalt transformation barriers considering the interplays among them. This paper aims to introduce an innovative framework to generate dynamic collective opinions for barrier analysis in such context. The proposed dynamic collective opinion generation framework comprises three key components: Collective Opinion Generation, Prediction with Expert Advice (PEA), and Social Network Analysis. Its goal is to provide dependable decision support when subjective evaluation data from experts is available. Initially, a bi-objective optimization model generates the initial barrier weight vector. The PEA incorporates a loss function to measure the deviation between aggregated probablity density function and actual observed data, updating the weight vector over time. Next, an influence network covering all barriers is established. Node significance is evaluated through metrics like degree centrality, closeness centrality, and eigenvector centrality. The gravity model based on three metrics is used to determine interrelationships among barriers, resulting in a weight vector capturing these interplays. The two weight vectors are combined with Nash equilibrium, yielding the ultimate weight vector for barriers. The effectiveness of the proposed dynamic collective opinion generation framework is showcased through a case study on China Construction Third Bureau. Results indicate that talent structure notably influences construction companies' digital transformation. Additionally, market structure and strategic position significantly impact digital transformation in this industry.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

This is particularly evident in the absence of a comprehensive assessment of its application capabilities. In light of this setting, we develop a BIM maturity assessment model (BIM MAM) for the project’s O&amp;M phase. The proposed model comprises of an assessment indicator system that facilitates experts in providing individual assessment results, and a collective opinion aggregation method in a&#160;&lt;a href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/computer-science/probabilistic-context" title="Learn more about probabilistic context from ScienceDirect's AI-generated Topic Pages"&gt;probabilistic context&lt;/a&gt;&#160;based on a multi-objective optimization model that is employed to generate the ultimate collective assessment results.

Due to the inherent characteristics of the construction industry and the diverse possibilities with DT, proliferation of building digital twin (BDT) necessitates a comprehensive comprehension of its evolution and the creation of roadmaps. This paper aims to contribute to the formalization and standardization of BDT. It designs a novel assessment framework for the overall maturity measurement of existing BDT projects. The developed BDT maturity model incorporates a collective opinion generation paradigm based on a fairness-aware&#160;&lt;a href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/engineering/multiobjective-optimization" title="Learn more about multiobjective optimization from ScienceDirect's AI-generated Topic Pages"&gt;multiobjective optimization&lt;/a&gt;&#160;model to provide an expert-based evaluation system for evaluating the maturity of BDT projects. The effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed framework have been validated through a case study of an experimental BDT initiative. This paper establishes a generalizable framework for BDT maturity assessment that can offer insights into BDT maturity standards to construction practitioners to create effective strategies for the diffusion, development, and maturation of BDT.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

In the context of real estate enterprises, credit risk assessment provides a basis for banks and other financial institutions to choose suitable investment objects. Additionally, it encourages real estate enterprises to abide by market norms and provide reliable information for the standardized management of the real estate industry. However, Chinese real estate companies are hesitant to disclose their actual operating data due to privacy concerns, making subjective evaluation approaches inevitable, occupying important roles in accomplishing Chinese real estate enterprise credit risk assessment tasks. To improve the normative and reliability of credit risk assessment for Chinese real estate enterprises, this study proposes an integrated multi-criteria group decision-making approach. First, a credit risk assessment index for Chinese real estate enterprises is established. Then, the proposed framework combines proportional hesitant fuzzy linguistic term sets and preference ranking organization method for enrichment evaluation II methods. This approach is suitable for processing large amounts of data with high uncertainty, which is often the case in credit risk assessment tasks of Chinese real estate enterprises involving massive subjective evaluation information. Finally, the proposed model is validated through a case study accompanied by sensitivity and comparative analyses to verify its rationality and feasibility. This study contributes to the research on credit assessment for Chinese real estate enterprises and provides a revised paradigm for real estate enterprise credit risk assessment.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

However, the high-quality printing and molding of nonlinear structure has become one of the bottleneck technologies restricting the development of 3D building printing. In this paper, variable radian 3D printing nozzle is firstly developed to verify the controllability of extruded concrete material based on self-developed 3D building printer. Then, variable radian forming theory is presented and used to evaluate the mechanism material fracture and accumulation, and improve the molding quality of nonlinear structure. Finally, simulation analysis and experiments are designed to explore the controllable mechanism of variable radian molding and verify the consistency between the experimental results and the theoretical analysis. The research results can promote the application of 3D printing in the construction industry, and provide support for the utilization of building resources and green buildings.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

Under the greenness-based subsidy policy, the government provides subsidies based on NEVs’ carbon emission reduction to consumers. Under the dual credit policy, the FV manufacturer has to purchase NEV credits from the NEV manufacturer before starting to manufacture. The government’s optimal subsidy strategy and the two manufacturers’ pricing and production strategies of two kinds of vehicles are studied. The impact of consumers’ low-carbon awareness, NEVs’ carbon emission reduction, unit production cost, and unit cost gap between two kinds of vehicles with respect to equilibrium decisions are analyzed. The results show that both the greenness-based subsidy policy and dual credit policy can improve NEVs’ market share when the manufacturing cost gap is relatively low, and enhance the NEV firm’s competitiveness when the investment cost of greenness-enhancement is relatively low. The subsidy policy can improve social welfare, whereas the dual credit policy is harmful to social welfare. In terms of promoting the sales and profits of NEVs, both the subsidy policy and dual credit policy can play a positive role under different conditions.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

The results demonstrate that the overall level of ES in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area from 2010 to 2020 was good; however, the spatial distribution of ES revealed an unbalanced state. The influence of each subsystem on the result of the ES evaluation is state &gt; response &gt; impact &gt; driving force &gt; pressure. The spatial correlation analysis of ES in the Three Gorges Reservoir area exhibited a positive autocorrelation, and the agglomeration effect was significant; on this basis, the key factors affecting ES were identified.

The ultimate goal of SSCs is to meet specific economic, social, and environmental standards. The implementation of blockchain technology can significantly improve the reliability, efficiency, and security of the information exchanged among stakeholders in SSCs. However, these stakeholders inevitably possess varying informational advantages and exhibit divergent perspectives regarding the adoption of blockchain technology. This paper thus aims to examine the impediments to the adoption of blockchain technology in the context of SSCs with the goal of promoting blockchain adoption. To achieve this objective, this study analyzes the barriers to blockchain adoption from the perspectives of various stakeholders in SSCs and&#160;constructs a barrier severity assessment model that utilizes group decision-making methods to integrate all stakeholders’ attitudes. This study employs the PEEST (political, economic, environmental, social, and technological) framework to identify 27 barriers to the adoption of blockchain technology. Subsequently, an&#160;expertise-based group decision-making approach is used to quantify&#160;the prominence of various barriers according to various types of stakeholders. The results indicate that the five most intense barriers are storage constraints, insufficient economic incentives, high integration costs, a lack of functional appeal, and ambiguity regarding data disclosure and public data management regulations. This research makes novel theoretical and practical contributions, as it takes an empirical and all-encompassing approach to identifying obstacles to the adoption of blockchain technology and provides valuable insights for policymakers and practitioners to reference in overcoming these obstacles.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

China, as the largest developing country, promulgated its Pilot Work Plan for the Construction of Zero-Waste Cities led by the new development concept in 2018 after recognizing the inadequacy and urgency of solid waste management, and the lack of valuable experience and benchmark cities for the construction of zero-waste cities. This study uses the undesirable super-efficiency model and kernel density estimation method to measure the efficiency of zero-waste city construction in 16 prefecture-level cities in Shandong Province and analyze their spatial and temporal differences. Three major problems were found, namely, low regional coordination, the rigid policies of some local governments, and the unbalanced development of scale efficiency and pure technical efficiency. Results show that the zero-waste city construction efficiency as a whole shows a declining and then fluctuating growth trend, and that low-scale efficiency is the main reason behind the decrease in construction efficiency. Suggestions are then provided considering three aspects: improving regional synergy; improving government quality and capacity, and strengthening government supervision and revitalizing the market; and introducing social capital for environmental pollution treatment. These suggestions ultimately help improve the level of zero-waste city construction.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

However, the existing collective opinion generation approaches fail to model the behavioral characteristics associated with individuals, and thus, cannot reflect the fairness concerns among them when they consciously or unconsciously incorporate their judgments on the fairness level of distribution into the formulations of individual opinions. In this study, we propose a multi-objective optimization-driven collective opinion generation approach that generalizes the bi-objective optimization-based PDF aggregation paradigm. In doing so, we adapt the notion of fairness concern utility function to characterize the influence of fairness inclusion and take its maximization as an additional objective, together with the criteria of consensus and confidence levels, to achieve in generating collective opinion. The formulation of fairness concern is then transformed into the congregation of individual fairness concern utilities in the use of aggregation functions. We regard the generalized extended Bonferroni mean as an elaborated framework for aggregating individual fairness concern utilities. In such way, we establish the concept of Bonferroni mean-type collective fairness concern utility to empower multi-objective optimization-driven collective opinion generation approach with the capacity of modeling different structures associated with the expert group with fairness concern. The application of the proposed fairness-aware framework in the maturity assessment of building information modelling demonstrates the effectiveness and efficiency of multi-objective optimization-driven approach for generating collective opinion when accomplishing complicated assessment and evaluation tasks with data scarcity.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

It is of great significance to construct a green building evaluation system based on the physical building framework to achieve energy saving and consumption reduction and to fit the sustainable development. In this study, a building greenness evaluation system combining BIM data model and prior knowledge of experts is constructed and the applicability of the method has been verified. IFC information is expressed and transmitted in terms of components, materials, equipment, environmental quality impact, etc., and BIM based building performance design data information conversion and greenness evaluation process is constructed; Based on the comparison and summary of the existing green building evaluation systems at home and abroad, the evaluation model of building greenness is determined; Based on the ideas and steps of establishing the index system proposed in the research, the index system of building greenness evaluation is established from the aspects of environmental quality (Q) and building load (L) on the basis of questionnaire, prior knowledge of experts and other methods; Combined with the mathematical model of greenness evaluation, the paper analyzes the indexes of different levels, determines the structural calculation methods of different indexes, and carries on the quantitative classification of the overall greenness evaluation. Finally, taking a citizen's house as an engineering case, the paper makes an empirical analysis on the greenness evaluation of green buildings. The results show that the green degree of the building is excellent(class A), which is consistent with the project positioning, and provides the basis for the efficient and accurate evaluation of green building. † Xianguo Wu and Yuan Cao and Weicheng Liu contributed equally to the work.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

However, in many cases, these types of data may be significantly important to the aggregated results. This study aims at expanding the practical application scope of the power geometric operator and then utilizing it to develop a proportional hesitant fuzzy linguistic large-scale group decision-making (LSGDM) model. The extended power geometric (EPG) operator is first introduced, in which these outliers can be distinguished as sufficiently important or "false/biased" data in accordance with the decision-making context. Several useful properties and application characteristics of the EPG operator are highlighted. Subsequently, the proportional hesitant fuzzy linguistic normalized Manhattan distance is proposed, which is a basic concept for the construction of the proportional hesitant fuzzy linguistic extended power geometry (PHFLEPG) operator. Combined with the clustering model for decision-makers, a PHFLEPG-operator-based consensus-reaching approach is provided to simplify and rationalize the decision-making process. Furthermore, the comprehensive LSGDM result is derived by utilizing the PHFLEPG operator. Eventually, a case study on regulatory capacity evaluation for the Civil Aviation Safety Regulatory Authority of China is performed to validate the feasibility and effectiveness of the established LSGDM method.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

The traditional shield attitude control method is manual control based on a driver's experience, which has the defects of hysteresis and poor reliability. This research proposes an intelligent method to predict the shield attitude based on a Bayesian-light gradient boosting machine (LGBM) model. The constructed model includes 29 parameters that impact the shield attitude and 6 parameters that represent the shield attitude. The developed the Bayesian-LGBM model can predict the shield attitude and support shield attitude control by adjusting construction parameters and conducting iterative prediction. Guiyang rail transit line 3 is selected as a case study to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method. The results indicate: (1) The developed the Bayesian-LGBM model is able to effectively predict the shield attitude; (2) The importance ranking can clarify the key construction parameters that should be controlled; (3) The proposed method enables support the effective shield attitude control by continuously adjusting the shield construction parameters. the proposed attitude guidance control method based on the Bayesian-LGBM can be used to provide a reference for actual shield attitude applications and other similar problems.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

This entails the scientific assessment of construction levels, analysis of potential hurdles, and formulation of upgraded strategies. However, existing research has mainly focused on measuring single or multiple traditional smart cities, therein overlooking the construction level of new smart city clusters. Thus, this study takes the new smart city clusters in Shandong Province and uses both entropy method and the Moran index to analyze the construction level and spatial differences in the four dimensions of social livelihood, economic production, innovation-driven development, and safeguard measures. Results show that the construction level of the provincial capital economic circle is uneven and has polarization issues. Meanwhile, the construction level of Jiaodong economic circle is relatively good, although the economic driving capacity needs further improvement. The low urbanization rate of the Lunan economic circle occupies a gathering zone with low construction levels, making the construction of digital villages necessary. Targeted suggestions in improving the radiationdriven capacity of core cities, improving digital infrastructure, and developing smart industries are then forwarded to promote the establishment of new smart city clusters and achieve top-notch economic growth.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

This paper aims to study the correlation between Relationship Management (RM) and construction project success and to develop a framework that includes practical actions, tools, and strategies for managing relationships in construction projects. Literature review and interviews were used to explore and validate the RM’s relevant associated traits. Subsequently, a piloted questionnaire was used to collect the data from 264 construction experts and assess the effect of RM on the overall project success. The data were analyzed using Partial-Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM), where the structural and measurement models of the higher and lower order constructed were assessed. The study findings categorized the RM-associated traits into three main pillars: Contractual Measures, Team Interactions, and Top Management Actions. The findings also confirmed that RM has a significant positive effect on the overall success of construction projects. In addition, this paper proposed an integrated framework for managing relationships in construction projects, allowing construction firms to monitor the relationships in their projects and identify key areas for strengthening the relationships throughout their projects to foster their projects' success rates.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

Three alliance models in addition to one no alliance model are built and examined. The no alliance model as a benchmark is developed to characterize the alliance motivation for each supply chain member. Afterwards, we identify the optimal alliance strategy and the final alliance equilibrium. The results show that the manufacturer always has motivations to form an alliance with each of other two members, while the retailer and the platform may form an alliance only when the agency rate is relatively low. Moreover, under certain conditions, all supply chain members could achieve a win-win-win result in the manufacturer-retailer and manufacturer-platform alliance models, but fall into a lose-lose-lose situation in the retailer-platform alliance model. Additionally, it is interesting that a higher agency rate makes the retailer more profitable when the platform and manufacturer enter into an alliance. Finally, we find that each of the three alliance models may be the final equilibrium, which is largely dependent on channel competition and the agency rate.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

In order to alleviate the computing complexity, an agglomerative hierarchical clustering algorithm is introduced to cluster the Assess-Inf given by a huge number of experts as per the organizers’ expected discrimination level on reliability-related Assess-Inf. A method for weighting the clusters is then proposed to control the roles played by the items of the Assess-Inf, representing each cluster and having different reliability levels in their fusing process to tap into wisdom of crowds (WOC) while accommodating the organizers’ trust level in the reliability-related Assess-Inf given by experts. Afterward, the best–worst method is extended to the BULI-based large-scale group assessment context with the aim of accurately weighting the criteria by drawing on WOC. Finally, a case study on assessing the spatial synergy between Chongqing’s integrated URT system and urban form is conducted to validate the validity of the proposed MCLSGA model.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

To analyze the complex dynamic relationship between metro energy consumption and its influencing factors and provide a reference for metro energy conservation control, this paper uses the monthly energy consumption, passenger flow and operating distance statistical data for Wuhan Metro Line 2 from 2018 to 2019. First, metro energy consumption and its influencing factors are qualitatively analyzed and identified. Then, based on cointegration theory and an autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model, a correlation hypothesis between metro energy consumption and its influencing factors is constructed, and a method for analyzing the influencing factors of metro energy consumption is proposed. The total energy consumption of a metro (TEC), train traction energy consumption (TTEC), environmental control energy consumption (ECEC), station lighting energy consumption (SLEC), station equipment energy consumption (SEEC) and the operating distance (OD) and passenger flow (PF) variables are analyzed. Using cointegration and an impulse response function, the dynamic relationships between the various energy consumption factors and operating distance and passenger flow are evaluated. The results show that there are substantial differences in the effects of OD and PF and their degree of influence on metro energy consumption. (1) OD affects mainly TTEC and TEC. The degree of influence of OD on TTEC reaches 97.8%, and the degree of influence of OD on TEC reaches 65.9%. (2) PF affects mainly ECEC and SEEC, and the degrees of influence of PF on ECEC and SEEC are 32.2% and 41.3%, respectively.

Based on the current situation of tertiary hospitals in central China providing digital health services via social media, we used the Cronbach and Bayesian Best and Worst methods to evaluate the quality of hospital digital health services and conduct an empirical study of several hospitals. Based on the results of the empirical study, we propose a path for constructing a digital health service platform, suggesting that hospitals focus on building business function services of social media and accelerate the development of Internet hospitals. Hospitals should also improve the operation and maintenance of social media, optimize the intelligence of online guidance, and simplify the design logic of function menus. In terms of content information services, hospitals need to design targeted content according to the characteristics of different social media, improve content quality, and ensure the appropriate proportion of various types of information. With such measures, hospitals can guide users to use social media through business function services and retain users through content information services to increase the influence of hospitals and the quality of social health welfare.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

SSS is a requirement-driven multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) problem and the existing pieces of literature have attempted to integrate quality function deployment (QFD) with various MCDM methods to model the problem. However, these models have not conducted SSS based on stakeholders’ satisfaction from alternatives and used the weights of criteria obtained from stakeholders’ preferences for requirements, which is used to model the compensation among satisfaction levels of different requirements, to guide the compensation among alternatives’ performances on different criteria. In order to address these deficiencies, this paper develops a novel generalized (QFD)-based MCDM structure for SSS, based on which we further design a QFD-based multi-stakeholders and multi-experts MCDM model considering stakeholders’ consensus of interest and wisdom of expert crowds. Firstly, multiple stakeholder groups with multiple participants in each one are asked to output their expectations and preferences for their own requirements; within each group, the algorithm for consensus reaching process (CRP) is designed to formulate the acceptable collective expectations, and the best-worst method (BWM) method integrated with an algorithm for consistency improving process (CIP) and an algorithm for CRP is developed to weight requirements. Secondly, multiple experts use basic uncertain linguistic information (BULI) to characterize performances of alternatives on criteria and the relationship between requirements and criteria, and a method of weighting individual judgments with the capability of drawing on the wisdom of crowds (WOC) while accommodating organizers’ trust level in reliability given by experts is used to facilitate formulating a collective judgment. Thirdly, for each alternative and each requirement of each stakeholder group, we can quantify the comprehensive performance of the alternative on the requirement with the help of QFD, based on which and the group’s expectation we can use the value function of prospect theory to quantify the group’s satisfaction of the requirement from the alternative; aggregating the weighted satisfaction levels of requirements gives rise to the comprehensive satisfaction level of each group from each alternative, and then the Maximin decision rule is introduced to rank alternatives because of its ability to accommodate the non-compensation among different stakeholder groups. Finally, a case study is conducted to investigate the validity and effectiveness of the proposed model.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

Given the challenges associated with the manual collection of settlement data and the suboptimal timeliness of the Back Propagation (BP) technique in neural networks, this study proposes an integrated prediction method that combines the Ensemble Kalman Filter (EnKF) with BP. This study focuses on the processing of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) pictures obtained from the ascending orbit of the Sentinel-1A satellite. The Small Baseline Subset Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (SBAS-InSAR) technology is employed to derive the settlement time series on the runway of Kangding Airport. Moreover, three sites with high coherence within the primary settlement region are employed to assess the dependability of the model after the expansion of the data by cubic spline interpolation. The findings of the study indicate that both the BP-EnKF and BP models exhibit favorable outcomes in predicting airport runway settlement. However, following the alteration of data caused by external environmental influences, the BP-EnKF model has superior adaptability to variations in data. It has been shown that the BP-EnKF model exhibits a prediction accuracy that surpasses the BP model by 9.25%.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

Despite their potential, there is still limited understanding of how to effectively integrate psychophysiological methods to improve human–robot collaboration (HRC) in construction. This paper addresses this gap by critically reviewing the use of psychophysiological methods for HRC within construction environments, based on a concept-methodology-value philosophical framework. The review explores different interaction modalities of implementing psychophysiological measures to communicate or control robots in construction. The analysis reveals that measuring brain activity using electroencephalography is the most widely used psychophysiological method, while the majority of the works are still at the proof-of-concept stage in laboratory and virtual construction environments and lack empirical evidence. Four potential research directions are proposed: the fusion of multi-modal psychophysiological signals, enriching field experimental settings for better generalizability, leveraging advanced biocompatible or contactless technologies for effective signal detection in construction scenarios, and examining the practicality of psychophysiological methods to construction HRC. The findings should benefit subsequent exploration and practical applications of psychophysiological methods to enable the better implementation of robots and support HRC in construction.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Bibcite" version="8.x">Drupal-Bibcite</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sheng-Hua Xiong</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Xi-Hang Wei</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zhen-Song Chen</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hao Zhang</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Witold Pedrycz</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mirosław Skibniewski</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Identifying causes of aviation safety events using wW2V-tCNN with data augmentation</style></title></titles><keywords/><dates><year><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2025</style></year></dates><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">International Journal of General Systems</style></secondary-title><electronic-resource-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1080/03081079.2025.2456960</style></electronic-resource-num><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Identifying the causes of these safety events is crucial for safety agencies to create recommendations and for airlines to enhance procedures and mitigate hazards. This paper proposes a model to identify the causes of civil aviation safety events using a weighted Word2Vec-based Text-CNN (wW2V-tCNN) algorithm and data augmentation techniques. A corpus is built by matching narrative texts from investigation reports with cause labels from the Aviation Safety Network database. This corpus is transformed into Text-CNN inputs using a weighted sentence vector method based on word embeddings, considering word frequency and part-of-speech weighting. Additionally, a novel document balancing method is introduced for data augmentation. The proposed identification model achieves Macro-F1 and Macro-accuracy scores of 0.9803 and 0.9699, outperforming traditional methods and showing significant improvement over models like Doc2vec and SBERT.

Recent advances in quantum computing (QC) offer compelling approaches to address these multifaceted issues by enabling significantly faster and more precise optimization. This paper systematically reviews and synthesizes existing QC research in the supply chain context, particularly focusing on quantum algorithms that target the PCSCM lifecycle. Our analysis identifies three key domains: production, inventory, and transportation, in which QC can outperform classical methods, as evidenced by enhanced scheduling flexibility and cost minimization. However, our findings also highlight crucial bottlenecks, including quantum hardware limitations, organizational readiness gaps, and a lack of specialized interdisciplinary talent. We propose a framework of strategies to guide QC adoption, such as specialized algorithm development, collaborative research partnerships, and standardized data protocols. These insights offer promising future directions for leveraging QC to streamline operations and boost sustainability in the prefabricated construction sector.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Bibcite" version="8.x">Drupal-Bibcite</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lei Zhang</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jingfeng Yuan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Xianfei Yin</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tiantian Gu</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Yinghao Lu</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ping Liu</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mirosław Skibniewski</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The emotional equation: how psychosocial support boosts safety practices in the context of construction 5.0</style></title></titles><keywords/><dates><year><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2025</style></year></dates><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Frontiers in Psychology</style></secondary-title><electronic-resource-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.3389/fpsyg.2025.1632848</style></electronic-resource-num><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Background: Construction 5.0, which emphasizes human-centric technologies and improved collaboration between humans and machines in intelligent construction ecosystems, introduces distinct safety management challenges that necessitate effective emotional resource allocation strategies. This study utilizes job demands-resources theory to investigate how emotional resources are allocated for safety management by examining the relationships among safety practice, psychosocial support, safety participation, and leadership safety behavior.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Methods: A face-to-face questionnaire survey was conducted with front-line construction workers involved in Construction 5.0 projects, yielding 118 valid responses. The data were analyzed using linear regression models and the bootstrap method.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Results: The findings reveal that: (1) psychosocial support positively influences both safety participation and safety practices; (2) safety participation enhances safety practices; (3) safety participation fully mediates the effect of psychosocial support on safety practices; and (4) leadership safety behavior positively moderates the relationship between safety participation and safety practices.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Conclusion: This study extends the job demands-resources framework by illustrating the flow of emotional resources in the context of Construction 5.0, thereby highlighting the principles of multi-level emotional resources in the relationship between emotion and safety.

Given the innovative potential of building information modeling (BIM), BIM-based collaborative innovation (BIM-CI) has been perceived as a promising approach to meet this requirement. However, the underlying mechanism that drives BIM-CI remains largely unexplored, which seriously hinders progress in designing and planning effective interventions to promote BIM-CI so as to accelerate the release of innovation capacity in the construction system. BIM-CI exhibits distinct network characteristics. Therefore, this study employed social network analysis to examine the temporal and spatial evolution process of the BIM-based collaborative innovation network (BIM-CIN) in China based on 1,677 BIM-CI-related patent data from 2011 to 2023. The results indicate that BIM-CIN has expanded across three phases, with its network structure becoming more decentralized and diversified. This shift provides innovators with enhanced collaboration opportunities, fostering a more dynamic and inclusive innovation process. Key innovators, such as the State Grid Corporation of China and China Construction First (Group) Company Limited, play a pivotal role in facilitating communication and strengthening collaboration within the BIM-CIN. Additionally, the spatial evolution analysis highlights that the increasing number of provinces participating signifies a positive trend toward more extensive collaboration and innovation within the BIM-CIN. The findings provide valuable references for relevant practitioners to better organize their managerial activities to promote the development of BIM-CI, thereby improving the efficiency and effectiveness of construction innovation.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Bibcite" version="8.x">Drupal-Bibcite</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Qiong Liu</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Limao Zhang</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mirosław Skibniewski</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Network extension planning towards resilient urban critical infrastructures using deep reinforcement learning</style></title></titles><keywords/><dates><year><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2025</style></year></dates><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APPLIED SOFT COMPUTING</style></secondary-title><electronic-resource-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1016/j.asoc.2025.113163</style></electronic-resource-num><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;As cities continue to grow, expanding metro networks becomes essential for optimizing urban transportation efficiency.

The model integrates multi-source data into the reward function while customizing the state and action spaces to reflect the unique characteristics of metro networks. A policy network is developed using an Encoder-Decoder framework, with the parameters being updated by an Actor-Critic framework based on policy gradient. A comprehensive performance index is proposed to evaluate the vulnerability and service capacity of planned networks. The proposed method is validated through a case study on the Hangzhou metro system. The results demonstrate that the proposed DRL can result in optimal planned networks that outperform the actually implemented network with a maximum Performance Improvement Percentage of 19.87 \%. The DRL-based optimization framework proposed for metro network extension planning is anticipated to enhance adaptability towards urban development and increase resilience.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Bibcite" version="8.x">Drupal-Bibcite</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Yashuai Li</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Wubin Wang</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jichang Zhao</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Yang Yang</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zhaohui Zhang</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mirosław Skibniewski</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jingfeng Yuan</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Estimating demolition waste from residential interior photos: A Large Language Model solution</style></title></titles><keywords/><dates><year><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2025</style></year></dates><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Automation in Construction</style></secondary-title><electronic-resource-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1016/j.autcon.2025.106478</style></electronic-resource-num><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Demolition waste management is a critical challenge during the final stages of construction projects, particularly concerning fine-grained waste at the room level.

The decision-making model, established through literature analysis and expert discussions, utilizes the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to evaluate CE criteria and employ the fuzzy Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) to determine contractor suitability. The findings indicate that Material Circularity, Energy Circularity, and Product Circularity are the most influential criteria, with green procurement emerging as the highest-priority factor. The model was validated through a hypothetical case study involving four contractors experienced in sustainable construction. The results demonstrate the model\textquoterights capacity to produce sensitive outcomes in terms of decision-making.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Bibcite" version="8.x">Drupal-Bibcite</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Xudong Fan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Yishuo Jiang</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ray Zhong</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fabio Duarte</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Waishan Qiu</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jürgen Hackl</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mirosław Skibniewski</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Advancements and potential pitfalls for smart cities and sentient infrastructures</style></title></titles><keywords/><dates><year><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2025</style></year></dates><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Digital Engineering</style></secondary-title><electronic-resource-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1016/j.dte.2025.100036</style></electronic-resource-num><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;As urban areas struggle with increasing challenges related to population growth, climate change, the built environment, and public well-being, the concept of smart cities has emerged as a transformative solution. A smart city refers to the seamless integration of advanced information and communication technologies (ICT) with existing urban infrastructure to enhance efficiency, sustainability, and quality of life, thereby reshaping the future of urban living [2]. Originating in the early 2000s with a focus on \textquotedbllefttop-down\textquotedblright technology deployment [9], the practice has evolved owing to the rapid growth of digital infrastructure-such as broadband networks, smart sensors, and open data platforms, which has enabled cities to become dynamic environments that foster real-time decision-making and community participation [6]. Contemporary smart city initiatives increasingly recognize the importance of \textquotedblleftbottom-up\textquotedblright innovation, where residents actively contribute to the design and improvement of urban services [17]. This evolution reflects a shift towards emphasizing connectivity, citizen engagement, and a more human-centric approach to urban challenges. The collaborative, living-lab approach positions citizens as agents of change, making cities more adaptive and responsive to evolving needs. Despite these advancements, the development of smart cities still involves several challenges. Beyond technological deployments, ethical issues such as privacy, data security, and equitable access to technology are critical hurdles that must be addressed [1]. Moreover, the growing complexity of managing interconnected urban systems demands innovative governance frameworks that ensure interoperability while balancing technological progress with inclusiveness and sustainability. Ultimately, the success of smart cities will depend on the ability to create resilient, data-driven communities that empower their residents and prioritize both human well-being and environmental stewardship&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Bibcite" version="8.x">Drupal-Bibcite</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bocong Liu</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Xuhui Cong</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Liang Wang</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shenghui Zhang</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hao Liu</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jonas Saparauskas</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Leonas Ustinovichius</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mirosław Skibniewski</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Spatial-temporal evolution and influencing factors of the coupling coordination degree between new infrastructure construction and high-quality development in urban agglomerations in China</style></title></titles><keywords/><dates><year><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2025</style></year></dates><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Engineering, Construction and Architectural Management</style></secondary-title><electronic-resource-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1108/ecam-11-2024-1627</style></electronic-resource-num></record><record><source-app name="Bibcite" version="8.x">Drupal-Bibcite</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zhenzhao Xia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Botao Zhong</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shuai Zhang</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tonghui Zhao</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mirosław Skibniewski</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Graph-driven embedding reinforcement and traceable LLM agent for reliable element alignment in construction report generation</style></title></titles><keywords/><dates><year><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2026</style></year></dates><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Automation in Construction</style></secondary-title><electronic-resource-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1016/j.autcon.2026.106816</style></electronic-resource-num><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Engineering report generation from construction-site Internet of Things (IoT) data using large language models (LLMs) remains challenging due to hallucinations. Ensuring traceability and reliability in information retrieval and multi-step reasoning is essential within retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) for LLM. This paper formalizes the RAG-LLM pipeline and proposes a dual-stream enhancement combining knowledge graph (KG) construction with reinforcement learning (RL)-based retriever tuning. The graph-guided module extracts structured engineering elements, while RL improves semantic alignment and tokenization of critical terms. Leveraging this dual-stream RAG, a traceable reporting agent is developed, providing end-to-end traceability of retrieval and reasoning, along with inter-step similarity measures. When collaborating with existing on-site IoT systems, the agent can extend automated monitoring to decision-making support. This paper presents a reliable approach for construction report generation and advances human-AI collaboration in construction management.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Bibcite" version="8.x">Drupal-Bibcite</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zhuohao Zhang</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Weiya Chen</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jianhua Cai</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hanbin Luo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mirosław Skibniewski</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hierarchical system decomposition and semantic enrichment of BIM for lifecycle support of MEP systems</style></title></titles><keywords><keyword><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Semantic enrichment</style></keyword><keyword><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MEP systems</style></keyword><keyword><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Graph matching</style></keyword><keyword><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">BIM</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2026</style></year></dates><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Advanced Engineering Informatics</style></secondary-title><keyword><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%"/></keyword><electronic-resource-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10.1016/j.aei.2026.104428</style></electronic-resource-num><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;The effective lifecycle management of modular Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) systems is often compromised by a significant data gap between the digital design in Building Information Modeling (BIM) and the as-built conditions of prefabricated components. This paper specifically addresses the challenge of defining and structuring functionally independent component groups, or \textquoterightblocks,\textquoteright within complex BIM models that lack explicit system-level semantics and suffer from disorganized data. To solve this, a framework was proposed for hierarchical MEP system decomposition and semantic enrichment and implemented through a hybrid topological-geometric matching method that first identifies all structurally identical component assemblies via a topological search and then verifies these candidates by comparing their morphological signatures. Experimental validation demonstrates the method\textquoterights high accuracy and scalability, achieving an F1-score of 0.98, near-linear time complexity, and above 99\% precision in large-scale applications, as verified by domain experts. This research provides a robust, bottom-up approach to automatically populate a structured system hierarchy, bridging the critical data gap between the design model and physical, prefabricated modules. By creating semantically enriched and well-structured models, this work establishes a foundational data layer that enables future advancements in automated quantity take-off, modular maintenance, and end-of-life management, such as component reuse.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
