“…This is a suitable method for engineering science and solving real-world problems through artefacts, and the output of DRSM is a proof solution concept [60]. This framework was adopted with reference to the applications made by [62][63][64][65] and structured in the following five stages: (1) Identification of problems observed and motivations, (2) Definition of objectives for a potential solution, (3) Design and development, (4) Demonstration (case study), and finally, (5) Evaluation. The research activities and the tools used in the different stages are summarised in Figure 1: As shown in Figure 1, in the first stage of the methodology, a literature review was developed with the following aims:…”

Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is a source of growing applications in a number of industries both as an individual technology and as a complement to other technologies (such as Internet of Things (IoT)). RPA allows the automation of human activities on a computer, especially when these activities are repetitive and high in volume. RPA saves man-hours and increases the productive capacity of the processes. The application of RPA in civil engineering is still in its early stages, and there has been little work on the subject in the literature. This paper presents RPA technology, for the first time in the literature, as a long-term management, control, and auto fault correction process for a low-cost accelerometer that can be used in SHM applications. However, this process requires a significant number of man-hours to stay operational, given the architecture of its applications. With the application of an RPA implementation workflow formulated based on the Design Science Research Method (DSRM), the management and control of the data acquisition process of a low-cost accelerometer located on a structural column are automated and put into operation in this study. RPA also made it possible to automatically detect and notify users of errors in the process, restart the process, and bring the process back online every time errors occurred. In this way, an automated process was obtained that operated continually and freed up human labour.

“…However, this category provides a more significant material need for slope reinforcement than the last variety. Regarding retaining wall design, Atencio [20] proposed an innovative technique called a generative design that can be used to optimize this iterative process to calculate the shape of the retaining wall. The designer codes the project's characteristics and constraints to ensure that the system generates the best suitable solutions to the given challenge.…”

The Balikpapan - Samarinda Toll Road is a new infrastructure project that connects two capital cities in East Borneo. Landslides occur in sections 28+000 to 28+100, necessitating the terrace design to prevent unstable conditions. As a result, a new proposed design is required to ensure safety in this area. This study aims to offer further slope reinforcement in this location to prevent landslides. This research utilizes secondary data from Standard Penetration Test (SPT) results to determine the soil properties. First, the lateral earth pressure was conducted to calculate the sheet pile and retaining wall structure. The other reinforcement is geogrid with geotextile combine. The Finite element model carried out all the overall stability with Plaxis calculation. The results show that all new proposed to generate the safety factor value 1.3. Sheet pile variations present the CCSP type W-600 with a total length reaching 17m, which offers a safety factor 1.31. The second variation is a retaining wall with a full height of 5m and combined in sheet pile design, which reaches the safety factor in the overall stability of 1.498. the internal strength of the retaining wall is divided into three categories: overturning, sliding, and bearing capacity with 1.55, 2.44, and 2.88, respectively. Meanwhile, the geogrid type described the SF 1.32 with three step slope design and spacing of 0.3m, 0,5m, and 1,0m, respectively.

“…As a developing design approach, generative design has been extensively studied in academia. Since the introduction of generative design based on shape grammar, as proposed by G. Stiny and J. Gips in 1971 [18], generative design has been introduced into different fields such as architectural design [5], product customization design [9], and visual communication design [14].…”

An improved generative design approach based on graph grammar for pattern drawing

Generative design is used to efficiently generate design solutions with powerful computational methods. Generative design based on shape grammar is currently the most commonly used approach, but it is difficult for shape grammar to formally analyze the generated pattern. Graph grammar derived from one-dimensional character grammar is mainly used for generating and analyzing abstract models of visual languages. However, there is a significant gap between the generated node-edge graphs and the representation of shape appearance. To address these problems, we propose an improved generative design approach based on virtual-node based continuous Coordinate Graph Grammar (vcCGG). This approach defines a new type of grammatical rule named node transformation rules to convert nodes into shapes with node transformation applications. By combining node transformation applications and L-applications in vcCGG, we can generate a node-edge graph as the structure of the pattern through L-applications, and then draw the shape outline, next adjust the positions of these shapes, thus relating abstract structures and the physical layouts of visual languages. At the end of the paper, we provide an example application of this approach: generating an illustration from Emma Talbot using a combination of node transformation applications and L-applications.
