The rising population along with the rapid expansion of anthropogenic activities has infused concerns associated with the sustainability and optimization of natural resources worldwide. Perpetual increase in per capita energy consumption in conjunction with aging energy infrastructure has further added to the debate concerning the growth and future...

Building information modeling (BIM) digitizes the functional and physical aspects of the project in the construction sector, providing more visibility and easing the decision-making process in the entire lifecycle. Apart from 3D (width, height and depth) modeling, BIM also consists of other dimensions such as 4D (time), 5D (cost), 6D (Sustainabilit...

Autonomous robotics technology has been undergoing a major technological growth in the recent years. This novel technology is playing a crucial role in the transformation of many key industries like automotive, aerospace, warehouse, and logistics. With the advent of Industry 4.0 and smart factories, all industries across the spectrum are adopting a...

Artificial intelligence (AI) will hold as a key enabler in transforming the automotive industry. Currently, the automotive industry is focusing on integration of AI in self-driving cars, while other application areas include R&D, procurement, supply chain management, manufacturing, mobility services, and customer experience. Automotive manufacture...

Policy level initiatives to meet greenhouse gas emission reduction targets and the drive to improve the air quality in urban cities are expected to keep supporting the sales growth in electric vehicles across the globe, which has already crossed 2 million units in 2019. Further, the consequent increase in spent lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is likel...

This research service titled “Growth Opportunities for Superalloys,” provides an understanding of different types of initiatives taken by researchers in the superalloys technology domain or the development of the l high performance material for medium to extremely high temperature applications. Global and regional funding by key stakeholders and re...

The amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) generated and emitted into the atmosphere continues to rise as a direct result of a series of complex interactions including population growth, improved standards of living, and expanding economies, and this is clearly demonstrated by both the increasing absolute level and the annual rate of increase in atmospheri...

The rising demand for faster and more secure transactions along with full transparency has made Blockchain one of the fastest growing technology markets in the world. Blockchain, which is a decentralized digital database, supports secure transactions without the need for a central authority to approve/accept the transaction. Although this technolog...

Ceramic nanofibers are considered as 1D nanostructures of ceramics, with the most predominantly metal oxide ceramics. The reduced size of the ceramic nanofibers in comparison to their bulk counterparts such as ceramic fibers results in varied physiochemical and structural characteristics, thereby, expanding their application potential. This resear...
