Nature-Based Solutions for Urban Carbon Neutrality
The building sector is responsible for nearly 40% of the total global direct and indirect CO2 emissions. Urban green infrastructure, which includes features such as urban trees, vegetation, green roofs, and green facades, are examples of nature-based solutions often employed as municipal climate mitigation and adaptation strategies. This approach offers a range of cost-effective strategies for reducing municipal CO2 emissions and presents compelling public policy co-benefits such as improved urban livability and enhanced environmental conditions.

Aluminium Casting Processes
Aluminium castings have been widely used in many industries, including automotive, aerospace, telecommunication, construction, consumer products, etc., due to their lightweight, good electric and thermal conductivity, and electromagnetic interference/radio frequency interference (EMI/RFI) shielding properties. There are many aluminium casting processes, including sand casting, shell mould casting, pressure die casting, lost foam casting, permanent mould casting, investment (lost wax) casting, centrifugal casting, squeezing casting, semi-solid casting, continuous casting, etc. Aluminium castings made through different casting processes may have different surface quality, different gas contents, different porosity, different mechanical properties, etc. These different properties of aluminium castings from different casting processes, especially gas content, porosity, and ductility, will affect the weldability/joinability and joint quality.

The Oil Spill Models
Oil spills may have devastating effects on marine ecosystems, public health, the economy, and coastal communities. To predict in near real time oil spill transport and fate with increased reliability, these models are usually coupled operationally to synoptic meteorological, hydrodynamic, and wave models.

Intrusion Detection in IoT
With the massive explosion in the deployment of Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices globally, the security of these devices has become a critical concern. IoT devices are resource-constrained by nature. This means conventional security practices tend to be impossible, or impractical, to implement on these devices. The majority of the work focusing on IoT devices in security only considers the network traffic to and from the device. By inspecting this data, it is possible to infer if a device is under attack or has been attacked. Much research has been conducted in the field of Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) for IoT devices. These IDS can either be network-based (NIDS), which are usually located on the IoT gateway, or host-based (HIDS), which are implemented on the device itself.

Shear Thickening Mechanism
Shear thickening fluid (STF) is a dense colloidal suspension of nanoparticles in a carrier fluid in which the viscosity increases dramatically with a rise in shear rate. Due to the excellent energy absorption and energy dissipation of STF, there is a desire to employ STFs in a variety of impact applications.

Eco-Friendly Geopolymer Composites Prepared from Agro-Industrial Wastes
Portland cement (PC) is a common material used in civil infrastructure engineering. Cement production emits roughly 2.2 billion tons of CO2 per year, contributing 8% of global emissions in 2016. This contributes to almost half of the calcination process, and together with thermal combustion, clinker generation could be responsible for 90% of the sector’s emissions. One effective technique for dealing with these industrial by-product wastes is to employ them to make cement replacements such as concrete and mortar, which can be used in a variety of applications.

Trusted Access Authentication Technology for Large-Scale Heterogeneous Terminals
A reliable and lightweight trusted access authentication solution for systems with large-scale heterogeneous terminals was introduced. By cloud, edge, and local servers cooperating to execute authentication tasks, the cloud-edge-end collaborative architecture effectively alleviates the authentication delay caused by high concurrent requests. Each server in the architecture deploys a well-designed unified trusted access authentication (UATT) model based on device fingerprints. With ingenious data construction and powerful swin-transformer network, UATT model can provide robust and low-overhead authentication services for heterogeneous terminals. To minimize authentication latency, an A2C-based authentication task scheduling scheme is used to decide which server executes the current task.
