商品描述

This book significantly contributes the digital transformation of construction. The book explores the capabilities of deep learning to provide smart solutions for the construction industry, particularly in areas of managing equipment, design optimization, energy optimization and detect cracks for buildings and highways. It provides conceptual solutions but also practical techniques. A new deep learning CNN-based highway cracks detection is demonstrated, and its usefulness is tested. The resulting deep learning CNN model will enable users to scan long distance of highway and detect types of cracks accurately in a very short time compared to traditional approaches.

The book explores the integration of IoT and blockchain to provide practical solutions to tackle existing challenges like the endemic fragmentation in supply chain, the need for monitoring construction projects remotely and tracking equipment on the site. The Blockchain of Things (BCoT) concept has been introduced to exploit the advantages of IoT and blockchain, and different applications were developed based on this integration in leading industries such as shared economy and health care. Workable potential use cases to exploit successful utilization of BCoT for the construction industry are explored in the book's chapters.

This book will appeal to researchers in providing a comprehensive review of related literature on blockchain, the IoT and construction identify gaps and offer a springboard for future research. Construction practitioners, research and development institutes and policy makers will also benefit from its usefulness as a reference book and collection of case studies on the application of these new approaches in construction.

 

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書在建築行業的數位轉型方面做出了重大貢獻。該書探討了深度學習在建築行業中提供智能解決方案的能力，特別是在設備管理、設計優化、能源優化和建築物和公路的裂縫檢測方面。它提供了概念性解決方案，也提供了實用技術。書中展示了一種基於深度學習卷積神經網絡（CNN）的公路裂縫檢測方法，並測試了其實用性。這種深度學習CNN模型將使用戶能夠在非常短的時間內準確掃描長距離的公路並檢測出各種裂縫，相比傳統方法更加高效。

該書探討了物聯網（IoT）和區塊鏈的整合，以提供解決現有挑戰的實用解決方案，例如供應鏈中的分散性問題、遠程監控建築項目和跟踪工地上的設備。引入了物聯網和區塊鏈的物聯網區塊鏈（BCoT）概念，並基於這種整合在共享經濟和醫療保健等領域開發了不同的應用。書中的章節探討了利用BCoT在建築行業中成功利用的可行潛在用例。

這本書將吸引研究人員，提供了有關區塊鏈、物聯網和建築的相關文獻的全面回顧，並確定了差距，為未來的研究提供了跳板。建築從業人員、研發機構和政策制定者也將從它作為參考書和建築中這些新方法應用的案例研究集的有用性中受益。
