A Study on the Spatial Prototype of Traditional Chinese Academy Architectures Based on Historial Image Analysis
No full textThe academy is a historically educational and cultural establishment that dates back to the Tang Dynasty in ancient China as a
private school. The traditional academy architecture is the academy’s material vehicle. The ancient document “Chronicles of the Academy” contains detailed information about the historical academy. History images are included in these records, intuitively depicting the
arrangement of the buildings and their relationship to one another and providing great assistance for the study of the architecture of the academy. Nonetheless, there is still a need for the academic community to make extensive use of the academy’s architectural archives. Many historical images of the academy are used as primary source material in this research. By identifying and interpreting the historical images, the
spatial layout prototype A of the academy with “the lecture hall in the middle and the ancestral temple on top” was finally analyzed, and two
variations of prototype A were analyzed
Singapore’s Policies in Environmental Reform on Transport Sector
No full textSingapore’s high vehicle density contributes significantly to GHG emissions, hindering its Paris Agreement goals. This study evaluates three transport policies: (1) Vehicle Quota System (VQS) and Electronic Road Pricing (ERP) to limit ownership and congestion; (2) urban integration to reduce travel demand; and (3) low-carbon transitions, including EV incentives and carbon taxes. These policies align with
Grubb’s framework—modifying behaviors, optimizing governance, and fostering innovation. Results show reduced vehicle use, better public
transport, and gradual EV adoption. Challenges like luxury car preferences, land constraints, and low carbon pricing remain. To meet its 2030
emissions target (36% reduction from 2005 levels), Singapore must strengthen carbon pricing, boost R&D, and improve policy coherence.
The case offers lessons for compact cities globally, emphasizing integrated governance and adaptive strategies for sustainability
Risks in the green building decision-making stage the study
No full textGreen building is the result of the development of the concept of sustainable development in the construction industry. It has outstanding advantages in terms of power saving, water saving, land saving, material saving and environmental protection. It can truly coexist
in harmony with nature and maximize Buildings that limit the use of resources.This paper studies the potential risks in the decision-making
stage based on the theory of green building life cycle. First of all, through literature review, the domestic and foreign literature on the identification of green building risk factors was summarized and summarized, 14 risk factors in the decision-making stage were identified, and a
risk list was established to form a “potential for the decision-making stage of the whole life cycle of green buildings in my country.” Risk Assessment Questionnaire”. Secondly, through questionnaire surveys, 10 construction units, investment units, design units, construction units,
supervision units, material and equipment suppliers, government housing and construction bureau departments, consulting units, related
professional teachers, and college related professional students, etc. In the field, find 6 representative persons in each field, ask them to score
14 decision-making risks in the questionnaire, and then get the final score after processing the average number. Finally, the entropy method
is used to calculate the importance of potential risks to analyze and rank, and on this basis, the corresponding suggestions and measures for
each risk factor are obtained
Research on the Impact of Interpersonal Relationships on the Safety Behaviors of Construction Workers
No full textIn order to comb out the relationship between interpersonal relationship and construction workers’ safety behavior and analyze its
influencing mechanism, based on accident causation theory, conformity motivation theory and planned behavior theory, a theoretical model
of the mechanism of interpersonal relationship affecting construction workers’ safety behavior was established. A meta-analysis method was
used to systematically analyze 135 independent samples from 46 domestic empirical studies. To clarify the influence mechanism of various
interpersonal relationships on the safety behavior of construction workers. The results show that: in interpersonal relationship, the correlation
coefficients between family relationship and safety behavior of construction workers are 0.613, and the correlation coefficients between emotional exhaustion and job satisfaction and safety behavior of construction workers are 0.564 and 0.479 respectively. The correlation coefficient between workers’ team-group relationship and construction workers’ safety behavior is 0.522, the correlation coefficient between safety
atmosphere and construction workers’ safety behavior is 0.671, and the coefficient between safety communication and construction workers’
safety behavior is 0.622. The correlation coefficient between leadership relationship and construction workers’ safety behavior is 0.26, the
correlation coefficient between safety management and construction workers’ safety behavior is 0.527, and the correlation coefficient between
safety incentive and construction workers’ safety behavior is 0.492. The conclusion of this study can provide a theoretical basis for the subsequent research on the safety behavior of construction workers, and also provide a management basis for construction managers
Research on Municipal Water Supply and Drainage Design under the Concept of Sponge City Construction
No full textIn recent years, urban waterlogging has occurred frequently in some cities in China. The current municipal water supply and drainage system fails to effectively manage and utilize water resources, which not only restricts the sustainable development of modern cities but
also runs counter to the goal of building a resilient sponge city. Therefore, it is of great significance to explore and optimize the municipal
water supply and drainage design plan, which will help to better implement the concept of sponge city construction and promote the urbanization process in China towards a higher - quality direction. In view of this, this paper aims to analyze in detail the specific application
strategies of the sponge city concept in municipal water supply and drainage design, hoping to provide valuable references for research and
practice in related fields

Design of Early Internal Short-Circuit Fault Diagnosis and Safety Early Warning System for Lithium-ion Battery Energy Storage Systems
No full textLithium-ion batteries are widely adopted in electric vehicles, energy storage systems, and portable electronic devices, leading to
increasing concerns about battery safety. Internal short-circuit faults, a common safety hazard in lithium-ion batteries, can potentially cause
thermal runaway, fires, or even explosions. To address this issue, this study proposes a machine learning-based lithium-ion battery internal
short-circuit fault diagnosis and safety alert system. This system continuously monitors key battery parameters such as voltage, current, temperature, and internal resistance, and integrates machine learning algorithms, including Support Vector Machine (SVM), to form a multi-parameter fusion fault diagnosis model capable of effectively identifying abnormal battery states
