“…Increasingly sophisticated systems are being created for buildings, cities, and infrastructure (Najeh et al, 2019). Building Information Modelling (BIM) and Geographical Information System (GIS) are two inter-disciplinary scientific fields that use computers to integrate and visualize diverse project data and provide an objective source of project information to aid project managers in making projectrelated decisions (Wei et al, 2021).…”

The infrastructure construction industry is typically characterized by large-scale, complex technologies, long completion times, and challenging collaborations. The provisioning of digital representations in 3D by combining physical properties with geospatial data would assist in addressing some of these challenging issues. These technologies would also provide a fundamental basis for the creation of Metaverse to support sustainable, innovative infrastructure design and construction. Hitherto most studies were focused primarily on integration techniques rather than providing comprehensive workflow for exploiting projects data to support engineers. This study aims to help engineers and decision makers better understand the opportunities and implications of the virtual 3D environment or Metaverse by examining the key emerging trends driving and enabling the development of data workflows for a selected infrastructure project. To build possible levels of workflow, the methodology involved incorporating 3D geometric data acquired from Building Information Models (BIM) and processed with geospatial location. The optimum data workflow and associated advantages for the construction industry have been determined. This paper also describes the concept and workflow approach, including specific data structures, data conversion, and a prototype solution. The results demonstrate the feasibility of the concept's robustness and both in terms of technical implementation and adoption for expediting business processes.

Model Predictive Control for Microgrid Functionalities: Review and Future Challenges

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Renewable generation and energy storage systems are technologies which evoke the future energy paradigm. While these technologies have reached their technological maturity, the way they are integrated and operated in the future smart grids still presents several challenges. Microgrids appear as a key technology to pave the path towards the integration and optimized operation in smart grids. However, the optimization of microgrids considered as a set of subsystems introduces a high degree of complexity in the associated control problem. Model Predictive Control (MPC) is a control methodology which has been satisfactorily applied to solve complex control problems in the industry and also currently it is widely researched and adopted in the research community. This paper reviews the application of MPC to microgrids from the point of view of their main functionalities, describing the design methodology and the main current advances. Finally, challenges and future perspectives of MPC and its applications in microgrids are described and summarized.

“…Buildings, cities and infrastructure are becoming increasingly complex systems [1], which bring together technical, economic and social aspects. For instance, infrastructure plays a crucial role in the development and sustainability of society [2] and, along with large buildings and cities, they are challenging projects for the AECO/FM sector (architecture, engineering, construction, operation and facility management).…”

Innovating the Construction Life Cycle through BIM/GIS Integration: A Review

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The construction sector is in continuous evolution due to the digitalisation and integration into daily activities of the building information modelling approach and methods that impact on the overall life cycle. This study investigates the topic of BIM/GIS integration with the adoption of ontologies and metamodels, providing a critical analysis of the existing literature. Ontologies and metamodels share several similarities and could be combined for potential solutions to address BIM/GIS integration for complex tasks, such as asset management, where heterogeneous sources of data are involved. The research adopts a systematic literature review (SLR), providing a formal approach to retrieve scientific papers from dedicated online databases. The results found are then analysed, in order to describe the state of the art and suggest future research paths, which is useful for both researchers and practitioners. From the SLR, it emerged that several studies address ontologies as a promising way to overcome the semantic barriers of the BIM/GIS integration. On the other hand, metamodels (and MDE and MDA approaches, in general) are rarely found in relation to the integration topic. Moreover, the joint application of ontologies and metamodels for BIM/GIS applications is an unexplored field. The novelty of this work is the proposal of the joint application of ontologies and metamodels to perform BIM/GIS integration, for the development of software and systems for asset management.
