Artificial Intelligence Applications for Sustainable Construction presents the latest developments in AI and ML technologies applied to real-world civil engineering concerns. With an increasing amount of attention on the environmental impact of every industry, more construction projects are going to require sustainable construction practices. This volume offers research evidence, simulation results, and case studies to support this change. Sustainable construction, in fact, not only uses renewable and recyclable materials when building new structures or repairing deteriorating ones, but also adopts all possible methods to reduce energy consumption and waste. The concisely written but compreh...
Diseases and Health Consequences of Air Pollution, Volume Three, Air Pollution, Human Health, and the Environment is part of a three-volume series. This volume focuses on epidemiological studies and diseases attributed to ambient and indoor air pollutants. It opens with an overview of diseases and health consequences due to air pollution. The chapters discuss health conditions such as respiratory issues, cardiovascular diseases, hypertension and blood pressure, diabetes, nervous system, brain, cancer, stroke—cerebrovascular disease, and skin disease that are linked to exposure to indoor and outdoor air pollutants. The book also evaluates the health cost and economic burden of air pollution...

While the word "automation" may conjure images of robots taking over jobs, the reality is much more nuanced. In construction, for instance, automation is less likely to diminish employment opportunities than it is to increase productivity. Indeed, automation alongside the global need for new and updated infrastructure and better and more affordable housing can help shape the direction of the construction industry. The key will be anticipating and preparing for the shift, in part by developing new skills in the current and future workforce. This book presents all aspects of automation in construction pertaining to the use of information technologies in design, engineering, construction techno...
Today, computation is an essential component of every technology. However, there has not been much research on quantum computing, even though it has the capability to solve complex problems in an efficient way. Further study is required to fully understand the uses and benefits of this technology. The Handbook of Research on Quantum Computing for Smart Environments presents investigating physical realizations of quantum computers, encoders, and decoders, including photonic quantum realization, cavity quantum electrodynamics, and many more topics on Bits to Qubits. Covering key topics such as machine learning, software, quantum algorithms, and neural networks, this major reference work is ideal for engineers, computer scientists, physicists, mathematicians, researchers, academicians, scholars, practitioners, instructors, and students.
