Title: Hyperspectral Early Detection of Bark Beetle Stress in Conifer Crowns

Abstract:Green-attack stages of bark beetle infestation are hard to spot from RGB imagery alone. UAV hyperspectral flights calibrated against tree-level dissection improve pre-visual stress detection. Narrow red-edge features outperform NDVI for flagging trees that later yield brood, supporting earlier sanitation cutting decisions.




Title: Field-Based Longitudinal Analysis of Remote Work Policies and Gendered Career Progression in Emerging Economies

Abstract:Hybrid policies may reshape promotion pathways unevenly. Survival models of promotion events by gender and remote intensity identify where flexible schedules correlate with stalled advancement.




Title: Data-Driven Spectral Indices for Early Detection of Nitrogen Deficiency in Mixed Grass Swards Across Heterogeneous Landscapes

Abstract:Mixed swards obscure early nitrogen stress when greenness metrics average across species. Red-edge ratios from handheld spectrometers detect deficiency earlier than NDVI alone.




Title: Multiscale Agent-Based Simulation of Cooperative Machinery Sharing Among Fragmented Smallholdings for Decision Support

Abstract:Plot fragmentation raises idle time for owned machinery and coordination costs for rental markets. An agent-based model of scheduling and trust penalties shows priority queues with transparent calendars reduce delayed planting more than expanding fleet size alone.




Title: Integrated Multi-Objective Optimization of Campus Timetables Balancing Equity and Room Utilization Under Resource Constraints

Abstract:Timetable solvers maximize room use but can concentrate unpopular slots on certain cohorts. Pareto search balances utilization against schedule fairness metrics across departments.




Title: Empirical Discrete Choice Analysis of Consumer Willingness to Pay for Traceable Fresh Produce

Abstract:QR-linked provenance claims are proliferating in wet markets, yet premium capture for small suppliers remains uncertain. Mixed logit models from shopper choice experiments show traceability premiums concentrate among higher-education buyers and shrink when price gaps exceed a modest threshold.




Title: Comparative Digital Twin Prototypes for Predictive Maintenance of Municipal Water Pumps With Uncertainty Quantification

Abstract:Pump failures cascade into service outages when inspections are calendar-based. Digital twins fed by vibration and pressure streams prioritize interventions before catastrophic seal failures.




Title: Time-Series Clustering of Household Energy Demand Under Time-of-Use Tariffs Using Open Data Streams

Abstract:Tariff pilots assume homogeneous load shifting that rarely holds. Clustering smart-meter series reveals archetypes whose peak reduction differs under identical price signals.




Title: Regional Agent-Based Simulation of Beach Nourishment Volumes Under Alternating Storm Seasons During Seasonal Transitions

Abstract:Nourishment sized from long-term averages understates episodic losses after clustered storms. Shoreline models show delayed post-storm top-ups reduce net retreat more than single large placements.




Title: Life-Cycle Assessment of Cross-Laminated Timber Versus Concrete in Mid-Rise Schools

Abstract:School construction agencies seek lower embodied carbon without compromising durability requirements. We compare CLT and reinforced-concrete mid-rise designs under regional electricity mixes and end-of-life scenarios. CLT options cut cradle-to-gate emissions substantially when biogenic carbon accounting follows transparent harvest certification assumptions.
