Swarm-Enabled AI for Smart Mobility and Sustainable Transport
Abstract: The significant issues facing the modern urban infrastructure are the management of road traffic problems, such as severe traffic congestion, the detection of unsafe driving behavior, and road safety. The traditional ground-based surveillance systems will be helpful, but they will reach their limits in large and dynamic environments. It is because of predetermined perspectives, blindness, and the inability to scale. To designate these problems, the present study proposes a traffic …

Intersection Safety in Urban Environments: A Review of Risk Factors and Crash Patterns
Abstract: Urban intersections are critical points of interaction between multiple road users, including cars, buses, two-wheelers, cyclists, and pedestrians. As cities continue to expand rapidly, the density and complexity of traffic at intersections increase, making them among the most dangerous segments of the roadway network. Numerous studies show that intersections account for nearly half of all urban road crashes, making them central to safety research and planning. This review paper synthesizes …

Sensors-Based Electric Machine Design for Industry
Abstract: The integration of advanced sensors is fundamentally changing the economics and reliability of electric machines. It moves design focus from minimizing material cost and adhering to conservative standards toward maximizing operational availability and energy efficiency. In the industry of tomorrow, the electric motor will not be a passive collection of coils and steel, but a self-diagnosing, self-optimizing, and perhaps even self-healing asset—a sentient motor—driven by its highly refined sixth sense, …

Design, Mathematical Modeling, and Dynamic Optimization of a Speed Breaker-Based Vehicular Kinetic Energy Harvester
Abstract: Decentralized energy harvesting methods are becoming more popular due to rapid urbanization and the rising need for sustainable infrastructure. The road-embedded vehicle kinetic energy harvester (VKEH) design, mathematical modelling, and experimental validation are presented in this work. This paper presents the structural engineering, continuum mathematical modeling, and experimental validation of an optimized road-embedded vehicular kinetic energy harvester (VKEH). The mechanism utilizes a spring- loaded, low-friction rack-and-pinion transmission coupled with a …
