Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Sustainable intelligent systems for infrastructure and transport (SISIT) are an important area of modern urban development and environmental protection, which aims to integrate sustainable concepts and intelligent technologies to improve the efficiency, reliability and environmental friendliness of infrastructure and transportation systems. SISIT involves complex technology, equipment and infrastructure. Through the harmonious and close cooperation of people, vehicles and infrastructure, SISIT can enhance the resilience of transportation systems, improve transportation efficiency, alleviate traffic congestion, increase road network capacity, reduce traffic accidents, save energy and reduce environmental pollution. This Special Issue brings together theoretical and empirical research for SISIT construction. Relevant topics for SISIT applications include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Multi-modal traffic flow prediction (such as bus, subway, road traffic and other different modes).
- Intelligent optimal scheduling and dynamic route planning of public transport.
- Intelligent operation and detection/monitoring sensing for transportation infrastructure.
- Traffic system signal management and optimization.
- Structural health monitoring of critical infrastructures such as highways, bridges and tunnels.
- Fault diagnosis and predictive maintenance of vehicle key components.
- Road traffic environment monitoring and prediction.
- Energy saving and emission optimization control technology of vehicle power systems.
- Automatic driving object detection of public transportation.
- High reliability and large-capacity vehicle networking technology.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
