Abstract:

Abstract The automatic production of lightweight wallboard is an important support for promoting the development of the construction industry. In view of the problems of low efficiency and large demoulding loss in the production process, an innovative improvement of the demoulding device for lightweight wallboard is proposed. Optimizing the demoulding device for lightweight wall panels by combining a gripping device and a conveying device. The synchronous operation of demoulding of wall panel and mold recovery is realized. For the intermittent transmission of wallboard production, it is proposed to use 51 single-chip microcomputer as the main control chip, and S-curve acceleration and deceleration as the speed control algorithm. The demolding production efficiency of the device is improved, and the demolding loss is reduced. The feasibility and effectiveness of the innovative design of the lightweight wallboard stripping device were verified by finite element analysis of the grabbing device.

Abstract:

The paper presents an innovative lightweight design solution for the rear crash management system of a C-class car, developed within the AffordabLe LIghtweight Automobiles AlliaNCE (ALLIANCE) EU research project. The innovation provides that the reference version of the module, based on conventional steel components, is revolutionized through the introduction of extruded 6000/7000 series aluminum alloys. The two competing alternatives are described and compared in relation to design and technological solutions, including also a sustainability analysis which assesses the entire Life Cycle (LC) of the system on the basis of a wide range of environmental indicators. The lightweight solution allows achieving a large mass reduction (almost 40%), while providing improvements in terms of strength, production efficiency and design freedom. On the other hand, the introduction of new materials and manufacturing technologies entails contrasting sustainability effects depending on impact category, thus not allowing to affirm that the novel alternative is unequivocally preferable under the environmental point of view. However, the comprehensive evaluation of all sustainability aspects through a multi-criteria decision analysis (TOPSIS method) reveals that the environmental profile of the innovative design is slightly preferable with respect to the conventional one.

Abstract:

Abstract: There is especially a challenging problem for secure communications in the last few years among the resource-poor environments like IoT devices and embedded systems which had driven the research to lightweight cryptography algorithms, performing wonderfully on the constraints of computations, memory, as well as also energy resources. It involves the implementation along with performance analysis of probably the most impressive lightweight block ciphers, such as SIMON, SPECK, and HIGHT. It also encompasses ECC as a safe alternative substitute to the traditional ones that contain AES. SIMON and SPECK are new-generation lightweight block ciphers developed by NSA for hardware efficiency so that performance is maximized at low speeds with very high levels of security. Also included are the performance characteristics of HIGHT, which is a specially designed block cipher for environments with very low resources. ECC is presented as the asymmetric encryption algorithm that provides at least some level of security yet its key sizes are dramatically smaller than the counterparts making it well applicable within these environments. In addition, an overall comparison in the aspect of the computational cost, usage of the memory, and the security level among the algorithms is made

Abstract:

In recent years, the rapid growth of on-demand delivery services, especially in food deliveries, has spurred the exploration of innovative mobility solutions. In this context, lightweight autonomous vehicles have emerged as a potential alternative. However, their fleet-level behavior remains largely unexplored. To address this gap, we have developed an agent-based model and an environmental impact study assessing the fleet performance of lightweight autonomous food delivery vehicles. This model explores critical factors such as fleet sizing, service level, operational strategies, and environmental impacts. We have applied this model to a case study in Cambridge, MA, USA, where results indicate that there could be significant environmental benefits in replacing traditional car-based deliveries with shared lightweight autonomous vehicle fleets. Lastly, we introduce an interactive platform that offers a user-friendly means of comprehending the model’s performance and potential trade-offs, which can help inform decision-makers in the evolving landscape of food delivery innovation.

Abstract:

On modern vehicles, the demand is made to be in every respect as efficient as possible. A technical method to increase energetic efficiency is to reduce the vehicle mass through the implementation of lightweight construction measures. The energy consumption decreases by that and the vehicle dynamics behavior of conventionally and alternatively respectively electrically powered vehicles increases. In the department Lightweight and Hybrid Design Methods of the Institute of Vehicle Concepts in Stuttgart in collaboration with 3A Composite Core Materials, a method which allows to realize sandwich structures for automotive structural applications analytically and conceptually, is developed. The development method based on material and component testing and material values would be determined at different loads, for example in pressure and in-plane tests. These values are transmitted into the analytical determination of so called failure mode maps to derive appropriate sandwich structures. With novel sandwich structures the objectives of high structural stiffness and strength are tracked, as well as a high level of energy absorption potential. By function integrating the potential of lightweight construction, depending on the energy absorption per structural weight, can be further increased. Accompanying tests on generic structures are made to validate the failure behavior. Also the influence of core material on the deformation behavior is examined. The results from the tests are transferred to a vehicle front structure of a planned lightweight vehicle of class L7E called "Safe Light Regional Vehicle" (SLRV). The behavior of the structure is examined in static and dynamic tests. The energy absorbing capacity can be further increased by geometric optimization and the use of different core materials. The research on sandwich materials is part of the research project Next Generation Car (NGC) of the DLR and represents in terms of the new vehicle concept SLRV in sandwich design a novel vehicle concept of this joint project.

Abstract:

Gaze estimation is increasingly pivotal in applications spanning virtual reality, augmented reality, and driver monitoring systems, necessitating efficient yet accurate models for mobile deployment. Current methodologies often fall short, particularly in mobile settings, due to their extensive computational requirements or reliance on intricate pre-processing. Addressing these limitations, we present Mobile-GazeCapsNet, an innovative gaze estimation framework that harnesses the strengths of capsule networks and integrates them with lightweight architectures such as MobileNet v2, MobileOne, and ResNet-18. This framework not only eliminates the need for facial landmark detection but also significantly enhances real-time operability on mobile devices. Through the innovative use of Self-Attention Routing, GazeCapsNet dynamically allocates computational resources, thereby improving both accuracy and efficiency. Our results demonstrate that GazeCapsNet achieves competitive performance by optimizing capsule networks for gaze estimation through Self-Attention Routing (SAR), which replaces iterative routing with a lightweight attention-based mechanism, improving computational efficiency. Our results show that GazeCapsNet achieves state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance on several benchmark datasets, including ETH-XGaze and Gaze360, achieving a mean angular error (MAE) reduction of up to 15% compared to existing models. Furthermore, the model maintains a real-time processing capability of 20 milliseconds per frame while requiring only 11.7 million parameters, making it exceptionally suitable for real-time applications in resource-constrained environments. These findings not only underscore the efficacy and practicality of GazeCapsNet but also establish a new standard for mobile gaze estimation technologies.

Abstract:

Lightweight frame components made of aluminum and load optimized connecting elements allow the reduction of weight and energy consumption as well as the increase of payload. Complex frame structures which nowadays can be designed and optimized with the help of modern simulation technologies require the use of adapted manufacturing technologies. Especially the flexible machining of single or limited products on the basis of common machining strategies is still inefficient and economically unacceptable. This article describes the development of adequate strategies for a high quality machining using simultaneous five-axis milling. Consequently, the machining of composite extruded aluminum profiles with continuously embedded steel-wire elements and the preparation of joining areas on nodes and commonly extruded profiles for innovative joining by forming processes have been analyzed.

Abstract:

The high demand for construction materials and building products, particularly aggregates, necessitates the development of innovative as the natural aggregate resource depletes. Lightweight aggregates are one of the alternatives has meet industry demand with low apparent density, excellent thermal insulation property and fire protection. Unfortunately, lightweight aggregate has a high-water absorption rate, which results in low strength and high porosity. These conditions had a negative impact on the qualities of fresh concrete, such as strength, slump, and cracking. Surface coating is thought to be a good way to prevent water absorption by lightweight particles, which lowers the concrete's performance. To reinforce the concrete, inorganic polymer composite material and cement were commonly employed to coat lightweight particles. The article presents a review on current issues facing by lightweight aggregate, mix proportion of geopolymer coating (aluminosilicate raw materials, alkaline activator ratio) and coating method (milling and dipping). This review has highlighted performance of lightweight aggregate for concrete application can be enhanced by approaching geopolymer coating as surface coating.

Abstract:

Sustainable development principles aim to re-utilize wastes to reduce their impact on the environment. In this context, the present contribution shows preliminary results on the preparation of innovative synthetic lightweight aggregates, starting from biomass-derived fly ash and high-density polyethylene (HDPE), to be used in geotechnical applications. The present work focuses on the manufacturing process of aggregate blends (including the selection of the right proportions of the two components) as well as on the relative determination of (i) physical–chemical properties (i.e., chemical composition, morphological analysis, mineral leachability, water absorption, specific gravity, grain size distribution); (ii) permeability features and (iii) mechanical properties (one-dimensional compression and shear strength behavior). The results, gathered from the new synthetic lightweight aggregates and compared with the corresponding ones obtained in a previous study conducted on natural and synthetic lightweight aggregates, appear promising for a potential utilization in geotechnical engineering.

Abstract:

The purpose is to improve employees’ initiative and innovation performance and further improve the overall organizational efficiency of colleges. From the perspective of health psychology, this work analyzes the internal mechanism between leadership empowerment behavior and employee innovation performance at China Agricultural University. By introducing two intermediate variables: task-based psychological capital (PsyCap) and innovative PsyCap, this work puts forward a lightweight deep learning (DL) model. It constructs the college organizational innovation performance (OIP)-oriented internal evaluation system from four dimensions. They are personal development support, power appointment, participation in decision-making, and work guidance. Then, the proposed lightweight DL model reveals the internal relationship between employees’ innovation performance and innovation factors using the questionnaire survey method. Overall, 360 questionnaires are distributed. The results show that the average values of the four dimensions (S, P, D, and G) of leadership empowerment are greater than 3, which are 4.3144, 4.3493, 4.4253, and 4.5286, respectively. S, P, D, and G represent empowerment, decision-making, communication, and innovation, respectively. The results show a high level of innovation performance in all dimensions. The finding proves that the influencing factors of employee innovation performance mainly include personal development support, empowerment, participation in decision-making, and work guidance. The effects of different dimensions vary significantly. Finally, the lightweight DL model can improve the analysis accuracy of the college OIP-oriented internal evaluation system. Therefore, college leaders should use the DL model and empowerment behavior to improve employees’ psychological quality, innovation enthusiasm, and work efficiency, ultimately benefiting employees.

Abstract:

Lightweight foam sandwich structures have excellent energy absorption capacity, combined with good mechanical properties and low density. The main goal of this study is to test the application of an innovative hybrid sandwich protective device in an offshore wind turbine (OWT). The results are useful for offshore structure applications. Different lightweight materials (aluminum foam, agglomerated cork, and polyurethane foam) were investigated using experimental tests and numerical simulations. Closed-cell aluminum foam showed the best performance in terms of the energy absorption capacity during an impact. As such, a Metallic Foam Shell (MFS) device was proposed for the fender of offshore wind turbines. A finite element model of a ship-OWT collision scenario was developed to analyze the response of a fender with the MFS device under repeated impacts. The proposed MFS fender can be used efficiently in a wide temperature range, allowing it to be used in harsh climatic conditions.
