Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleMeasuring Intra-City Eco-Efficiency Variations of Urban Infrastructures in JeddahMohammed Aljoufie, Alok TiwariSaudi cities are experiencing construction booms linked to urban infrastructure services and the Kingdom’s second largest city, Jeddah, is not an exception. As these booms are associated with urban expansion and rapid population growth, the major challenge confronting urban planners is the ensuring of resource efficiency given the offered infrastructure. In fact, reducing the consumption of resources and the impact … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 14 May 2016 · 7,445 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFuzzyNET: A Fuzzy Logic-Based Framework for Enhancing Urban Efficiency in Smart CitiesHemant Kumar, Safdar Tanweer, Parul Agarwal et al.The smart city paradigm emphasizes the strategic use of IoT, Big Data, and digital technologies to optimize urban operations and improve service delivery for citizens. Embedding digital technologies within operational workflows is driven by the objective of improving efficiency and long-term sustainability. The core transformation is Artificial Intelligence (AI) that revolutionizes management of cities through automation and instantaneous decisions based … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 7 · 19 Jul 2026 · 820 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficient Rainfall Forecasting Using Sequential Momentum-Based Artificial Neural Networks for Urban Flood ManagementSherin K K, G. SuganthiUrban floods cause severe disruption in densely populated cities and damage essential public infrastructure. Rapid urbanization and weak drainage systems further increase the risk during heavy rainfall. Accurate short-term rainfall forecasting is required to support early warning and reduce losses. This research focuses on improving rainfall prediction accuracy using an Artificial Neural Network trained with a new optimizer named Sequential … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 4 · 9 Apr 2026 · 1,539 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimized Earthquake Evacuation Routes Using Dijkstra's Algorithm and WinQSBSandra Huarcaya Gonzales, Hugo Vega-Huerta, Gisella Luisa Elena Maquen-Niño et al.This research analyzes and generates optimal evacuation routes in the Barranco district during earthquake scenarios using the Dijkstra algorithm implemented through WinQSB. A preliminary review was conducted to establish key concepts related to earthquake dynamics, evacuation route planning, and the application of Dijkstra’s algorithm. Given its high seismic exposure and the prevalence of aging infrastructure, Barranco is considered highly vulnerable … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 10 · 9 Dec 2025 · 2,851 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancing Disaster Resilience through Spatial Planning Strategies, a Case Study of Bono Region, GhanaAmponsah Maxwell, Nandi Nandi, Maryani EnokThe adverse impact of climate change has necessitated the global community to leverage spatial planning to curb the negative impacts of such incidents. Disasters continue to occur in human settlements, which makes it necessary to develop resilience through spatial planning strategies. The research question underpinning this study is, how can disaster resilience be improved through spatial planning strategies? Reducing the … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 30 Dec 2024 · 5,008 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLandslide Susceptibility Mapping with GIS in Nagi Dada Area of Panauti Municipality, Kavrepalanchwok District: A Comparison Between AHP and FR MethodArju Bhattarai, HimLal Shrestha, Asim Timalsina et al.Landslide Susceptibility Maps (LSM) are useful for both development planning and disaster management. Currently, LSMs are primarily created using GIS and remote sensing techniques. Landslide susceptibility mapping relies heavily on selecting and weighting causative elements based on their impact on slope instability. GIS is useful for calculating static parameters such as slope and aspect, as well as generating landslide susceptibility … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 22 Aug 2024 · 7,093 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractReview of Blue-Green Infrastructure in Some Selected CountriesTariku Neme Afata, Seyoum Derib, Reda NemoBlue-Green Infrastructures (BGI) integrate solutions implemented to enhance water management and landscape values for more climate-resilient and livable cities. It has created an opportunity to renew the natural structure of water balance in cities and rural through the increase in rainwater retention and enlargement of permeable areas. The objective of this review is to assess the blue-green infrastructures of selected … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 4 · 4 Aug 2022 · 7,096 accessesView PDFCite
