Real-Time Traffic Management System Utilizing Machine Learning Techniques
Abstract: AbstractThe rapid increase in the number of vehicles on roads has created significant challenges forconventional traffic management systems, which struggle to efficiently regulate traffic flow undervarying conditions. Traditional traffic signals operate on fixed timing cycles, failing to adapt tofluctuating vehicle densities across different lanes. This inefficiency results in unnecessary delays,increased congestion, longer travel times, and excessive fuel consumption. Additionally, fixed-timingsignals do not account for dynamic traffic patterns, leading to bottlenecks …

The Lifespan of a Building: Evolution and Durability
Abstract: Abstract The structural lifespan of buildings and infrastructure decreases over time due to material degradation, with water penetration being a major contributing factor. Excess moisture weakens construction materials, leading to deterioration and reduced service life. Water absorption plays a critical role in structural degradation, particularly affecting foundations when infiltration occurs below ground level. In bridge structures, water-induced foundation instability can lead to failure, while in roadways, moisture weakens pavement layers, …
