Intelligent and Collaborative Robotic System
Collaborative robotics represents a modern and efficient framework in which machines can safely interact with humans. Coupled with artificial intelligence (AI) systems, collaborative robots can solve problems that require a certain degree of intelligence not only in industry but also in the entertainment and educational fields.

Clustering and Analyzing Vessel Sailing Routes
A vessel automatic identification system (AIS) provides a large amount of dynamic vessel information over a large coverage area and data volume. The AIS data are a typical type of big geo-data with high dimensionality, large noise, heterogeneous densities, and complex distributions. This poses a challenge for the clustering and analysis of vessel sailing routes.

Non-Precious Carbon-Based Nanomaterials as ORR Electrocatalysts
Electrochemical applied potentials have a significant impact on oxygen reduction reactions (ORRs) reactions and their kinetics. The thermodynamic potential of 1.229 V vs. standard hydrogen electrode (RHE) for ORR is indicated as a specific potential in an electrochemical reaction.

Ridesharing Impacts
Ridesharing is part of the innovative shared transport regime which aims to maximize the utilization of mobility resources. Gaining knowledge of ridesharing’s impacts and how to assess them may significantly improve such services and thus contribute to their adoption among broader groups of travelers and to travel behavior change.

Effect of Aggregate on Geopolymer Concrete
The construction industry has become one of the major consumers of renewable and non-renewable natural resources and environment-polluting industries. The development of new green construction materials has become a global need and a driver for recent research trends. The use of geopolymer binders can reduce the consumption of ordinary cement and utilize several wastes that are usually dumped in landfills, causing several environmental issues.

Cementitious and Geopolymer Composites with Lithium Slag Incorporation
Lithium slag (LS)’s particle size distribution is comparable to fly ash (FA) and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS), which suggests it can enhance densification and nucleation in concrete. The mechanical treatment of LS promotes early hydration by increasing the solubility of aluminum, lithium, and silicon. LS’s compositional similarity to FA endows it with low-calcium, high-reactivity properties that are suitable for cementitious and geopolymeric applications. Increasing the LS content reduces setting times and flowability while initially enhancing mechanical properties, albeit with diminishing returns beyond a 30% threshold. LS significantly improves chloride ion resistance and impacts drying shrinkage variably.

Distance Estimation Approach for Maritime Traffic Surveillance
Maritime traffic monitoring systems are particularly important in Mediterranean ports, as they provide more comprehensive data collection compared to traditional systems such as the Automatic Identification System (AIS), which is not mandatory for all vessels.

Water Nutrient Management in Soilless Plant Cultivation
Under-cover soilless cultivation is an important technique of crop production. Due to the lack of contact with soil and precipitation, the root system of crops grown must be provided with water and all necessary nutrients in the form of a solution (nutrient medium). This nutrient medium needs to be fed in excess to ensure proper plant development and the expected qualitative and quantitative parameters of the crop yield, which means that in the case of, e.g., tomato cultivation, 20–80% of the supplied medium must be removed from the root system and managed. Uncontrolled discharge of this drainage water poses a significant threat to the environment, causing contamination of surface waters and groundwaters.

Learning Compliant Box-in-Box Insertion through Haptic-Based Robotic Teleoperation
In modern logistics, the box-in-box insertion task is representative of a wide range of packaging applications, and automating compliant object insertion is difficult due to challenges in modelling the object deformation during insertion. Using Learning from Demonstration (LfD) paradigms, which are frequently used in robotics to facilitate skill transfer from humans to robots, can be one solution for complex tasks that are difficult to mathematically model.
