Enabling Technologies in Collaborative Assembly
There is growing interest for manufacturing enterprises to embrace the drivers of the Smart Industry paradigm. Among these drivers, human–robot physical co-manipulation of objects has gained significant interest in the literature on assembly operations. Motivated by the requirement for human dyads between the human and the robot counterpart, the study of task allocation in human-robot collaboration literature shows promising trends for the implementation of ergonomics in collaborative assembly.

Integration of Electric Vehicles in Public Buildings
Electric vehicles (EVs) can provide important flexibility to the integration of local energy generation in buildings. Although most studies considering the integration of EVs and buildings are focused on residential buildings, the number of publications regarding large buildings, in particular, public buildings (PBs), has increased.

Smooth Coverage Path Planning for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
Within the Industry 4.0 ecosystem, Inspection Robotics is one fundamental technology to speed up monitoring processes and obtain good accuracy and performance of the inspections while avoiding possible safety issues for human personnel. The robotics inspection of areas and surfaces employing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) has become an increasingly popular tool for agriculture. They offer a cost-effective and efficient way to monitor crops, assess crop health, and gather data for precision agriculture. Drones can cover large areas quickly and capture high-resolution images and other types of data that can be analyzed to identify issues and make informed decisions about crop management.

Knowledge Graph for Disassembly of Electric Vehicle Batteries
End-of-life (EoL) electric vehicle (EV) batteries are one of the main fountainheads for recycling rare metal elements like cobalt and lithium. Disassembly is the first step in carrying out a higher level of recycling and processing of EV batteries. EV battery knowledge graphs can provide detailed structural information to assist operators in understanding the layout and composition of batteries. Planning the disassembly sequence using knowledge graphs can facilitate the robotic disassembly of EV batteries.

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.

Machine Learning for Building Energy Management
Machine learning (ML) algorithms are now part of everyday life, as many technological devices use these algorithms. Machine learning (ML) is now used in many industrial and scientific fields, from aerospace to marketing and advertising. In the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) sector, ML models and algorithms can be applied to building automation systems (BASs) and building digital twins (BDT) to improve building energy efficiency and flexibility by making use of widely available building operational data. Such systems can automate building management, reducing global consumption of primary resources (i.e., energy and water), increasing indoor comfort, increasing structural safety, and reducing the need for building maintenance.
