Zhang, Liang (author), Li, Guang (author), Chen, Huang (author), Tang, Jingtian (author), Yang, Guanci (author), Yu, Mingbiao (author), Hu, Yong (author), Xu, Jun (author), Sun, J. (author)Audio magnetotelluric (AMT) is commonly used in mineral resource exploration. However, the weak energy of AMT signals makes them susceptible to being overwhelmed by noise, leading to erroneous geophysical interpretations. In recent years, deep learning has been applied to AMT denoising and has shown better denoising performance compared to...journal article 2024

(author), Pirola, Sergio (author), Mastroiacovo, Giorgio (author), Polvani, Gianluca (author), Pontone, Gianluca (author), Xu, Xiao Yun (author)Aortic valve disease is often treated with bioprosthetic valves. An alternative treatment is aortic valve neocuspidization which is a relatively new reparative procedure whereby the three aortic cusps are replaced with patient pericardium or bovine tissues. Recent research indicates that aortic blood flow is disturbed, and turbulence effects...journal article 2024

Mr. Wang, Q. (author), Xu, Tangjie (author), von Terzi, D.A. (author), Xia, Wei (author), Wang, Zhenhai (author), Zhang, Haoran (author)In existing wind farms, the overall power output can be increased through yaw control. However, the cooperative control of start/stop, yaw and turbines positions is often overlooked, leading to wake superposition to downstream wind turbines and suboptimal power output. This paper proposes a synchronized optimized method that considers start...journal article 2024
