General Optimal Trajectory Planning: Enabling Autonomous Vehicles with the Principle of Least ActionHuang, H. (author), Liu, Yicong (author), Liu, Jinxin (author), Yang, Q. (author), Wang, Jianqiang (author), Abbink, David (author), Zgonnikov, A. (author)This study presents a general optimal trajectory planning (GOTP) framework for autonomous vehicles (AVs) that can effectively avoid obstacles and guide AVs to complete driving tasks safely and efficiently. Firstly, we employ the fifth-order Bezier curve to generate and smooth the reference path along the road centerline. Cartesian coordinates...journal article 2024

(author)The Fe<sub>2</sub>P type Mn–Fe–P–Si alloys exhibit a giant magneto-elastic first-order transition, but the large hysteresis limits their performance. Crystal structure evolution and magnetocaloric performance were investigated by varying the Mn and Fe contents at a constant V substitution of 0.02 in Fe<sub>2</sub>P-type (Mn<sub>1.17-x</sub>Fe...journal article 2024

Huang, Shijie (author)Class D amplifiers find widespread application in audio devices for driving load speakers, primarily due to their remarkable efficiency. Nonetheless, this enhanced efficiency often comes at the expense of reduced linearity. Hence, techniques for reducing Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) are important in the context of class D amplifiers.<br/><br/...master thesis 2023

Huang, H. (author)Concrete made with Portland cement has good behaviour under compressive stress, but it is weak in tension. Cracking caused by tension is a typical problem in concrete practice. High autogenous shrinkage at early ages is one of the causes of cracking, especially in high/ultra-high performance concrete. In that stage shrinkage is strongly related...doctoral thesis 2023
