With digital equipment becoming increasingly networked, either on wired or wireless networks, for personal and professional use alike, distributed software systems have become a crucial element in information and communications technologies. The study of these systems forms the core of the ARLES' work, which is specifically concerned with defining new system software architectures, based on the use of emerging networking technologies. In this context, we concentrate on the study of distributed systems which bring to life the vision of ubiquitous computing systems, also known as ambient intelligence.

Due to the rapid growth of 3D printing popularity, including fused deposition modeling (FDM), as one of the most common technologies, the proper understanding of the process and influence of its parameters on resulting products is crucial for its development. One of the most crucial parameters of FDM printing is the raster angle and mutual arrangement of the following filament layers. Presented research work aims to evaluate different raster angles (45°, 55°, 55'°, 60° and 90°) on the static, as well as rarely investigated, dynamic mechanical properties of 3D printed acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) materials. Configuration named 55'° was based on the optimal winding angle in filament-wound pipes, which provides them exceptional mechanical performance and durability. Also in the case of 3D printed samples, it resulted in the best impact strength, comparing to other raster angles, despite relatively weaker tensile performance. Interestingly, all 3D printed samples showed surprisingly high values of impact strength considering their calculated brittleness, which provides new insights into understanding the mechanical performance of 3D printed structures. Simultaneously, it proves that, despite extensive research works related to FDM technology, there is still a lot of investigation required for a proper understanding of this process.

Uneven settlement of high-speed railway subgrade leads to the irregularity of high-speed railway line, which seriously affects high-speed train operation. The skylight point of high-speed railway operation is short and the maintenance time is limited. Therefore, how to quickly lift and repair the ballastless track slab in the subsidence section is an urgent problem to be solved in the maintenance of high-speed railways. The two-component non-aqueous reactive polymer material has the advantages of strong expansive force, fast reaction speed, and wide application range, which is extremely suitable for the repair of high-speed railway track slab subsidence and lifting. In this study, the expansion force characteristics of different density polymer materials and the stress-deformation curves at corresponding density are tested in laboratory to propose the mechanical parameters of polymer. Then, a three-dimensional finite element (FE) model of high-speed railway train ballastless-track subgrade is established based on ABAQUS. The mechanical characteristics of CRTS III ballastless track under different repair materials, different elevation, and different density of polymer grouting materials are analyzed. The results show that, under the dynamic load of the train, the stress value of polymer repairing material is less than that of cement slurry, presenting a compressive stress state, which is similar to that of the complete subgrade surface. In addition, within a certain thickness range, increasing the thickness of polymer is beneficial to reducing the difference of stress variation between polymer filling layer and complete pavement. Once beyond this range, the thickness of polymer has little effect on the force variation.
