This issue brings together contributions that advance the state of the art in engineering through automation-driven solutions, quantitative modeling, and analytical methodologies. The articles include: robotic design applied to urban gardening; computational breast cancer classification using PCA; urban morphological characterization for sustainability assessment; computer vision for non-destructive inspection; flexible integration of distributed generation; FPGA-based SDR simulation; BIM-based evaluation of sports infrastructure; stability analysis under renewable energy penetration; epidemiological estimation of work-related fatalities from falls; logistics modeling for supply chain competitiveness; and structural assessment aligned with the Ecuadorian Construction Code (NEC-15). The studies integrate experimental methods, modeling, simulation, and regulatory analysis.
