Wei, X. (author), Urbach, H.P. (author), Wachters, A. (author), Aksenov, Y. (author)The polarization induced by the mask is studied by using a 3D rigorous model, wich solves Maxwell equations using the finite element method. Teh aerial image depends strongly on the change of polarization induced by the materials, thickness of the layer and pitch of the periodic masks.conference paper 2005

Wei, X. (author)We present a three-dimensional model based on the finite element method for solving the time-harmonic Maxwell equation in optics. It applies to isotropic or anisotropic dielectrics and metals, and to many configurations such as an isolated scatterer in a multilayer, bi-gratings and crystals. We shall discuss the applications of the model to high...doctoral thesis 2006

Wei, L. (author), Elsinga, G.E. (author), Brethouwer, G. (author), Schlatter, P. (author), Johansson, A.V. (author)The Reynolds number scaling of flow topology in the eigenframe of the strain-rate tensor is investigated for wall-bounded flows, which is motivated by earlier works showing that such topologies appear to be qualitatively universal across turbulent flows. The databases used in the current study are from direct numerical simulations (DNS) of fully...journal article 2014

Wei, X. (author)Estuaries are important ecosystems accommodating a large variety of living species. Estuaries are also important to people by their demand of freshwater for drinking, irrigation, and industry. Due to natural changes and human activities, the estuarine water quality, influenced by both salinity and turbidity (the cloudiness or haziness of water),...doctoral thesis 2017

Middelburg, L.M. (author), el Mansouri, B. (author), Poelma, René H. (author), van Zeijl, H.W. (author), Wei, J. (author), Zhang, Kouchi (author), van Driel, W.D. (author)The mechanical part of inertial sensors can be designed to have a large mechanical sensitivity, but also requires the transduction mechanism which translates this displacement. The overall system resolution in mechanical inertial sensors is dictated by the noise contribution of each stage and the magnitude of each sensitivity, see also Figure...conference paper 2018

Wei, P. (author), Tan, Qiuman (author), Uijttewaal, W.S.J. (author), van Lier, J.B. (author), de Kreuk, M.K. (author)For a proper operational performance assessment of excess sewage sludge digesters in practice, a better understanding of waste activated sludge (WAS) rheological behaviour is important, especially regarding the low-shear and poor mixing zones in anaerobic digesters. The potential rheological instability of WAS with different total solids (TS)...journal article 2018

Bridges, Robert (author), Riska, K.A. (author), Hopkins, Mark (author), Wei, Ying (author)Ice encroachment is the accumulation of ice atop a platform and results when ice drifts against a platform. Most often this occurs in shallow water but in principle can occur in deep water if the ice drift length is long enough. As the ice drifts against the platform it is broken and generates rubble and ice piles in front of the platform, and...journal article 2019

Tian, X. (author), Guo, Y. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author), Wei, Lingna (author), Lin, N.M. (author), Maestre, José María (author)Operational water resources management needs to adopt operational strategies to re-allocate water resources by manipulating hydraulic structures. Model Predictive Control (MPC) has been shown to be a promising technique in this context. However, we still need to advance MPC in the face of hydrological uncertainties. This study makes the first...journal article 2019

Wei, Mingqiang (author), Tian, Yang (author), Pang, Wai-Man (author), Wang, C.C. (author), Pang, Ming-Yong (author), Wang, Jun (author), Qin, Jin (author), Heng, Pheng-Ann (author)Bas-relief is characterized by its unique presentation of intrinsic shape properties and/or detailed appearance using materials raised up in different degrees above a background. However, many bas-relief modeling methods could not manipulate scene details well. We propose a simple and effective solution for two kinds of bas-relief modeling (i...journal article 2019

Wei, C. (author), Hendriks, Koen V. (author), van Riemsdijk, M.B. (author), Jonker, C.M. (author)Agents in teamwork may be highly interdependent on each other, the awareness of interdependence relationships is an important requirement for designing and consequently implementing a multi-agent system. In this work, we propose a formal graphical and domain-independent language that can facilitate the identification of comprehensive...journal article 2019

Wei, Z. (author), Nunez, Alfredo (author), Liu, Xiubo (author), Dollevoet, R.P.B.J. (author), Li, Z. (author)This study evaluates the degradation of wheels and rails at railway crossings. The evaluation method is composed of 1) finite element simulation of dynamic wheel/crossing interaction and 2) multi-criteria analysis of wheel/rail degradation in terms of yield behavior, rolling contact fatigue (RCF) and wear. With the aid of this method, we...journal article 2020

(author), Wei, Jiangxiong (author), Yu, Qijun (author)To assess the effect of relative humidity (RH) on drying-induced damage in concrete, the non-uniform strains and microcracks in concrete under different RH conditions were obtained using the digital image correlation (DIC) technique and lattice fracture model. The simulated non-uniform displacements were consistent with those captured using...journal article 2020
