Oxygen Uptake Prediction for Timely Construction Worker Fatigue Monitoring Through Wearable Sensing Data Fusion.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The physical workload evaluation of construction activities will help to prevent excess physical fatigue or overexertion. The workload determination involves measuring physiological responses such as oxygen uptake (VO) while performing the work. The ...

Automated Electro-construction waste Sorting: Computer vision for part-level segmentation.

Waste management (New York, N.Y.)
The global generation of construction, demolition, and renovation (CDR) waste has surged, increasing the demand for efficient recycling solutions. Emerging technologies can automate the sorting of CDR waste, which is crucial for specialised categorie...

Classification and predictive leaching risk assessment of construction and demolition waste using multivariate statistical and machine learning analyses.

Waste management (New York, N.Y.)
Managing construction and demolition waste (CDW) poses serious concerns regarding landfilling and recycling because of the potential release of hazardous elements after leaching. Ceramic materials such as bricks, tiles, and porcelain account for more...

ESG introduction mechanism of construction firms based on Bayesian network coupled with machine learning: Evidence from Zhengzhou.

Journal of environmental management
Chinese construction enterprises are at a pivotal point in their transition to sustainable development, with Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) emerging as a key driver. However, limited understanding of ESG mechanisms hampers effective mana...

Machine learning-based automated waste sorting in the construction industry: A comparative competitiveness case study.

Waste management (New York, N.Y.)
This article presents a comparative analysis of the circularity and cost-efficiency of two distinct construction material recycling processes: ML-based automated sorting (MLAS) and conventional sorting technologies. Empirical data was collected from ...

Exploring the acceptance of virtual reality training systems among construction workers: a combined structural equation modeling and artificial neural network approach.

Frontiers in public health
Virtual Reality Training System (VRTS) has been verified effective in safety training in the construction field. However, in China, it is not widely used as a regular training tool. Among all the reasons, the acceptance level of construction workers ...

Predicting green technology innovation in the construction field from a technology convergence perspective: A two-stage predictive approach based on interpretable machine learning.

Journal of environmental management
The construction industry, as a major global energy consumer and carbon emitter, plays a crucial role in achieving global sustainability. A key strategy for the green transformation of this industry-without compromising development-involves fostering...

A narrative review on the application of Delphi and fuzzy Delphi techniques in the cement industry.

Work (Reading, Mass.)
BackgroundThe Delphi technique and its fuzzy variant are widely employed across various sectors, including industrial applications, for eliciting expert consensus and identifying priorities. Despite its prevalence, there is limited literature on its ...

Multi-label material and human risk factors recognition model for construction site safety management.

Journal of safety research
INTRODUCTION: Construction sites are prone to numerous safety risk factors, but safety managers have difficulty managing these risk factors for practical reasons. Moreover, manually identifying multiple risk factors visually is challenging. Therefore...

Identification and evaluation of deep foundation pit construction risks based on Grey-DEMATEL-Fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method.

PloS one
In recent years, foundation pit construction has been rapidly developing in the direction of deep and large-scale, leading to the frequent occurrence of construction accidents. The pit construction process is characterised by a complex environment, h...
