In this study, a switch controller manages the power‐sharing between the battery and human mode to improve the rider's metabolism and manage the battery SOC. The main idea is to optimize this power source switching element for changing the status to reach a trade‐off between lack of tiredness and keeping the SOC high. Calorie burning is closely related to the rider's physical characteristics. In this paper, these parameters are investigated to calculate calorie burning. When the electric‐powered mode is activated, the SOC level comes down. When the human‐powered mode is activated, the human power source provides energy. The model converts the bicycle speed into the rider's heart rate and then changes it into burned calories based on some equations. These equations are obtained by poly fitting after experiments. This optimization causes 33.5% and 50% burning calorie reduction in Cleaveland and Portuguese driving cycles. Also, in the Portuguese driving cycle, the battery usage percentage decreases 39.56% from to 20.54% after optimization; therefore, the burning calorie decreases 265.84 Kcal to 176.83 Kcal.

In recent times, peer-to-peer (P2P) has evolved, where it leverages the capability to scale compared to server-based networks. Consequently, P2P has appeared to be the future distributed systems in emerging several applications. P2P is actually a disruptive technology for setting up applications that scale to numerous concurrent individuals. Thus, in a P2P distributed system, individuals become themselves as peers through contributing, sharing, and managing the resources in a network. In this paper, P2P for vehicular communication is explored. A comprehensive of the functioning concept of both P2P along with vehicular communication is examined. In addition, the advantages are furthermore conversed for a far better understanding on the implementation.

“…Approximately 460kg of CO2 is generated per ton of reinforcement steel and a cubic meter of in-situ concrete produces 1770kg of CO2 emissions (Miller et al, 2016). Moreover, fossil fuel used in heavy machinery in pile construction is also known as a significant contributor to CO2 emission as it produces 2.62kg of CO2 emission from 1 litre of diesel, and 0.537 kg of CO2 emission per 1 kWh of electricity usage (Masih-Tehrani et al, 2020). Saravanan (2011) has revealed that even though epoxy coated steel is used for piling construction in the UAE as corrosion protection to the reinforcement, the coating factories consume a lot of energy for this process, resulting in GHG emissions.…”

The construction of pile foundation is a multifaceted activity among rest of the construction activities that are performed by heavy machines, materials, and energy sources generating substantial amount of CO2 and greenhouse gases along with many other forms of environmental pollution. Sustainable piling construction guarantees that the whole piling process meets environmental sustainability and ultimately human health and wellbeing. Many countries around the world, including United States, China, the United Arab Emirates, are in the forefront of reengineering piling construction activities. Implementation of sustainable practices in piling construction Sri Lanka is still at a low level. Succinctly, several hindrances and barriers can be identified when adopting sustainable piling construction practices. Hence, the aim of this paper is to identify the environmental impact due to the current piling construction practices in Sri Lanka and to investigate barriers in implementing sustainable piling construction practices. A questionnaire survey was conducted among thirty (30) experts in piling construction. Significant barriers were identified using the relative importance index technique in data analysis. The findings revealed that among the ten (10) barriers identified, cost overrun and poor pile design, investment risk, lack of awareness of sustainable techniques and technologies as the top three (3) barriers in implementing sustainable piling construction practices. The study clearly identified the need for improving sustainability practices that can also enhance cost-effectiveness and performance efficiency. Findings of this study will be useful in formulating strategies to overcome the barriers and improve sustainability practices in the local construction industry.
