Lu, Tao (author), Chen, Rong (author), Wang, Ping (author), Wu, Junwei (author), Steenbergen, M.J.M.M. (author)This work addresses the contribution of the wavelength composition of the spectrum of the rail support stiffness profile to the expected long-term settlement. To that aim, purely harmonic stiffness variations of different wavelength are studied. The frequency-domain model with a double periodicity level previously developed by the first and...journal article 2023

Yang, Y. (author), Huang, Mo (author), Du, S. (author), Martins, Rui P. (author), Lu, Yan (author)High-frequency buck converters need a fast transition of switching nodes (high dv/dt). Such high dv/dt, especially the positive one, can cause malfunction of a conventional pulse-triggered active-coupled (PTAC) level shifter that is used to control the high-side NMOS switch. In this work, we first discuss the dv/dt immunity of conventional PTAC...journal article 2023

(author)It is not practical to obtain a large number of labeled data to train a supervised learning network in tunnel lining nondestructive testing with ground-penetrating radar (GPR). To decrease the dependence of supervised learning on the number of labeled data, an improved self-supervised learning algorithm—self-attention dense contrastive...journal article 2023

Li, Y. (author), Slob, E.C. (author), Werthmüller, D. (author), Wang, Lipeng (author), Lu, Hailong (author)Natural gas hydrates have been an unconventional source of energy since the beginning of this century. Gas-hydrate-filled reservoirs show higher resistivity values compared with water-filled sediments. Their presence can be detected using marine controlled-source electromagnetic methods. We classify acquisition configurations into stationary and...journal article 2023

Lu, Jenny (author), Vermolen, F.J. (author)In this paper a Spatial Markov Chain Cellular Automata model for the spread of viruses is proposed. The model is based on a graph with connected nodes, where the nodes represent individuals and the connections between the nodes denote the relations between humans. In this way, a graph is connected where the probability of infectious spread...book chapter 2023

Hua, Yuan (author), Lu, Qi (author), Li, Shuangmu (author), Zhao, Bo (author), Du, S. (author)This brief presents a 48V-to-1V 10-level dual inductor hybrid converter (DIHC) containing 11 on-chip switches and an off-chip gallium nitride (GaN) switch. Thanks to the 10-level Dickson switched-capacitor (SC) circuit, most of the voltage stress will be taken over by off-chip capacitors, which reduces the voltage stress of each switch to 4.8...journal article 2023

Lu, Jing (author), Zhang, Min (author), Feng, Jianlin (author), Gao, Y. (author), Yang, Ye (author), Li, Yuanyuan (author), Li, Linglin (author)The special environment conditions in high altitude areas leads to serious cracking and peeling of road hot-melt marking coatings. In order to improve the durability of marking paint, a durable hot-melt marking paint was designed by modifying the paint with toughening-agent, rheological agent, and anti-aging agent. The modification mechanism...journal article 2023

(author)This paper presents a research on the chloride penetration behavior of engineered cementitious composites (ECC) under sustained flexural loads. Three load levels, i.e. 30 %, 60 % and 75 % of the ultimate flexural load were used. Chloride diffusion depth and concentration profile were measured 30, 60 and 150 days after the specimen was exposed...journal article 2023

Liu, Shurui (author), Lu, T. (author), Tang, Z. (author), Chen, Zhiyuan (author), Jiang, Junmin (author), Zhao, Bo (author), Du, S. (author)In this article, we propose a reconfigurable regulating rectifier with a wide operational range for wireless power transfer. The proposed three-mode rectifier achieves a broad range voltage regulation without global loop control to minimize the chip area occupation. Compared with previous work, more working modes and greater voltage gain...journal article 2023
