Wang, Te (author), Li, Zongkun (author), Ge, W. (author), zhang, Z.H. (author), Zhang, Yadong (author), Sun, Heqiang (author), Jiao, Yutie (author)Compared with a single reservoir, the risk in cascade reservoirs has the transmission and superposition effect, which increases the complexity of its risk consequence assessment. In view of this problem, the direct consequence (DC) and potential consequence (PC) were defined as two parts of the dam breach risk consequence of cascade reservoirs....journal article 2023

Wang, Z. (author), Zhang, Dezhi (author), Tavasszy, Lorant (author), Fazi, S. (author)In recent years, the highly fragmented multimodal transport offer in several countries has required the integration of these services by logistics service integrators (LSIs). The challenge for LSIs is to set up multimodal transport corridors that can respond efficiently to the heterogeneous demand of shippers and that are cost- and price...journal article 2023

Zhang, T. (author), El Ali, Abdallah (author), Wang, Chen (author), Hanjalic, A. (author), Cesar, Pablo (author)Instead of predicting just one emotion for one activity (e.g., video watching), fine-grained emotion recognition enables more temporally precise recognition. Previous works on fine-grained emotion recognition require segment-by-segment, fine-grained emotion labels to train the recognition algorithm. However, experiments to collect these...journal article 2023

Liu, Tong (author), Zhang, Dawei (author), Zhang, Rongjun (author), Wang, Jinke (author), Ma, Lingwei (author), Keil, Patrick (author), Mol, J.M.C. (author), Li, Xiaogang (author)Organic coatings are one of the most used and versatile technologies to mitigate corrosion of metals. However, organic coatings are susceptible to defects and damages that may not be easily detected. If not repaired timely, these defects may develop into major coating failures due to corrosion occurring in the damaged region, thereby limiting...journal article 2023

Zhang, Yuxuan (author), Zhai, Xiaoqiang (author), Zhang, Fengyuan (author), Zhang, Zhongbin (author), Hooman, K. (author), Zhang, Hai (author), Wang, Xiaolin (author)Enhancing gas-liquid mass transfer is key to promote gas hydrate formation kinetics. Encapsulation of CO<sub>2</sub> hydrate is expected to dramatically increase gas-liquid contact to enhance mass transfer. However, gas hydrate encapsulation has never been proposed as the technical issues of gas permeation through capsule shells have never...journal article 2023

Zhu, Chunyan (author), Zhang, Yuning (author), van Maren, D.S. (author), Xie, Weiming (author), Guo, Leicheng (author), Wang, Xianye (author), He, Qing (author)The sediment load in the Yangtze River downstream of the Three Gorges Dam (TGD) has substantially declined in recent decades. The decrease is more profound below the TGD, e.g., a 97% decrease at Yichang, compared with that at the delta apex, 1200 km downstream, e.g., a 75% decrease, implying along-river sediment recovery. Two large river...journal article 2023

Wang, L. (author), Li, Erlei (author), Zhou, Zongyan (author), Zhang, Baicheng (author), Yu, Aibing (author)Powder bed fusion additive manufacturing has been applied to the fabrication of functionally graded materials. A new design that allows the material composition to change along the direction perpendicular to the powder spreading has been reported in the literature. Based on this design, this work examines the quality of the graded spread...journal article 2023
