Multi-modal System Design for Urban Metro Systems to Handle Excessive Demand Caused by Mega-events: Master of Science in Transport, Infrastructure and Logistics

Due to the continuous expansion of the urban scale, the urban metro transportation system also needs to be constantly updated, especially those cities that need to carry mega-events. Larger carrying capacity, better collaboration mode and more optimized operation mode are required to handle the sudden increase in travel demand. The ever-growing...

Energy Efficient High Voltage Driver for High Frequency Ultrasound Medical Applications

Noninvasive brain stimulation plays an essential role in diagnosing and treating diseases of the brain. This stimulation can affect disease-related changes in brain activation, inhibition, or connectivity. Ultrasound neuromodulation is a rapidly growing field of noninvasive brain stimulation. In a form of acoustic pressure waves, ultrasound can...

An integrated high-voltage pulser with improved HD2 and programmable amplitude

Miniature ultrasound probes increasingly employ ASIC that drive the transducer elements with HV pulses and process the received echo signals. Due to size constraints, the HV pulsers tend to be relatively simple circuits, in which HV MOS transistors pull the transducer element to a HV supply and back to ground. An important disadvantage of...

Design Optimization of Rolled Double Slip Joint Based on Scale Experiments and FEM

The Double Slip Joint (DSJ) is a new design concept to connect the transition piece to the foundation pile of an offshore wind turbine. It potentially offers high dynamic strength and reliability at a lower cost of installation and maintenance compared to other conventional techniques thereby contributing to the decrease of the cost of the wind...

Revitalization of post-industrial land Brownfield transformation in Xi'an through environmental-led regeneration

Brownfield is becoming a more and more dangerous and urgent problem during China’s fast urbanization process. Based on environmental, economic and social problems, it is important to find a sustainable method for post-industrial land redevelopment instead of current “top-down” mode. The main research question is: What alternative strategies and...

Improving Tactile Navigation in Public Buildings for Blind and Visually Impaired People

The limited accessibility to public buildings and being lack in rich experience of these buildings are the main troubles for blind and visually impaired (B&VI) people when exposed to the unfamiliar surroundings without sufficient guidance. Neither of the current navigation tools nor the accessibility design could fulfill both the functional as...
