The research addresses the persistent challenge of limited training data by introducing innovative data augmentation strategies.

Understanding the role that deicing practices and deicers play in winter road maintenance operations underscores the concordant importance of protecting transportation infrastructures and the environment. To this end, this paper aims to provide a thorough review of the existing literature and to gather prominent findings elucidating the impact of each technique and agent commonly employed in snow-fighting. Findings from previous studies revealed that, in most cases, the chloride salts-driven deteriorations provided a particularly stark example of the difficult-to reverse and unpredictable hazards to highway structures, the ecosystem and, in turn, human life. It is therefore vital to select and apply the right type and amount of deicing materials in the right place at the right time. More specifically, past scholarly work suggested that the use of chlorides should be strictly regulated, optimized and diminished by at least 50% to recover the current conjuncture. On the other hand, the adverse effects of other approaches, particularly the contribution of winter service vehicles employed in mechanical snow and ice removal to greenhouse gas emission, air pollution and climate change should not be underestimated. As this critical environmental issue has not been systematically investigated in any other reviews to date, future endeavors should address this research gap regarding the cold-climate regions overburdened by fossil-fuel reliant vehicles in snow and ice clearing. Solving this problem could promote mechanical snow clearing and lead to more extensive applications. Building upon previous literature, the purpose of this paper is to identify further research gaps in snow-fighting and to lay the groundwork for future works. Hence, this study is an attempt to incentivize policymakers and key stakeholders in transportation engineering to discover chloride salt-free deicing sources, eco-friendlier techniques, and sustainable maintenance strategies for winter roads.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54354,"journal":{"name":"Arabian Journal for Science and Engineering","volume":"50 20","pages":"16333 - 16356"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145237032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, their performance is often constrained by the limited energy resources of sensor nodes (SNs), significantly affecting network lifetime, particularly when the base station (BS) is located far from the sensing area. This excessive energy demand significantly reduces the overall network lifetime. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have emerged as a promising solution to address the limitations of fixed base stations in WSNs by serving as aerial base stations. To tackle the aforementioned challenges, this paper formulates the problem as two sub-problems: clustering optimization and the strategic deployment of UAVs as aerial base stations. These problems are known to be NP-hard and cannot be solved utilizing a deterministic approach. Thus, we propose applying improved particle swarm optimization (IPSO) to tackle clustering and deployment issues, minimizing energy consumption and prolonging the sensor network’s lifespan. The simulation results of optimal clustering show significant improvement in network life time and energy consumption. Results of comparison demonstrate that the proposed algorithm outperforms the PSO, LEACH_GA algorithms in terms of the lifespan of the network and the remaining energy consumption, reaching 33.5% and 17.4% for the first node to die. Moreover, the results of UAV-assisted demonstrate a significant improvement in remaining energy consumption and network lifetime reaching 54.3% and 87.3453%, respectively.
