Automated progress measurement using computer vision technology in UK construction (2023)
Journal Article

A critical concern with the UK's construction project progress monitoring and control techniques is their dependency on data collection, which is time consuming and unproductive and may lead to various circumstances in managing projects. However, col... Read More about Automated progress measurement using computer vision technology in UK construction.

Structural health monitoring of underground metro tunnel by identifying damage using ANN deep learning auto-encoder (2023)
Journal Article

Due to the complexity of underground environmental conditions and operational incidents, advanced and accurate monitoring of the underground metro shield tunnel structures is crucial for maintenance and the prevention of mishaps. In the past few deca... Read More about Structural health monitoring of underground metro tunnel by identifying damage using ANN deep learning auto-encoder.

Emissions from municipal solid waste (MSW) and its potential for energy production (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The adverse impact of the energy production from fossil fuels is now well recognised globally. Likewise, reduction in emissions is the key to tackle climate change issues and achieve environmental sustainability. Therefore, the move towards renewable...

Development of an analytical model for the FRP retrofitted deficient interior reinforced concrete beam-column joints (2022)
Journal Article

Beam‐column joints (BCJs) constructed until the 1970s carry a low shear capability due to the absence of shear reinforcement. Fiber‐reinforced polymers (FRP) are more reliable than other materials to strengthen a weak BCJ. To date, plenty of analytic...
