Ying, Shen (author), Xu, Yifan (author), Li, Chengpeng (author), Guo, Ren Zhong (author), Li, Lin (author)An Easement is a kind of usufructuary right, and its main purpose is that one party wants to use the property of others to improve the benefits and interests of his own real estate. With increasing population and accelerating urbanization, the limitation of urban space has gradually become prominent problem. To use the spatial resources fully,...conference paper 2019

Xu, J. (author), Broekens, D.J. (author), Hindriks, K.V. (author), Neerincx, M.A. (author)Mood contagion is an automatic mechanism that induces a congruent mood state by means of the observation of another person's emotional expression. In this paper, we address the question whether robot mood displayed during an imitation game can (a) be recognized by participants and (b) produce contagion effects. Robot mood was displayed by...conference paper 2014

We here present the results of a measurement campaign at the Umweltforschungsstation Schneefernerhaus (UFS) research station at an elevation of 2650 m, on the mountain top of Zugspitze, Germany. We measured the three-dimensional motion of the water droplets inside a turbulent cloud using three high-speed stationary cameras. We show the...conference paper 2015

We investigate the response of energy flux in isotropic turbulence to step-function like perturbation in external forcing at large length scales. From both physical experiments and direct numerical simulations, we measured the evolution of the Eulerian velocity structure functions, such as $D_{LL}(r)$, $D_{NN}(r)$, before and after the...conference paper 2015

Xu, D. (author), Zlatanova, S. (author)Database systems are continuously extending their capabilities to store, process and analyse 3D data. Topological relationships which describe the interaction of objects in space is one of the important spatial issues. However, spatial operators for 3D objects are still insufficient. In this paper we present the development of a new 3D...conference paper 2013

Xu, M. (author), Stefani, F. (author), Gerbeth, G. (author)The conventional magnetic induction equation that governs hydromagnetic dynamo action is transformed to an equivalent integral equation system. An advantage of this approach is that the computational domain is restricted to the region occupied by the electrically conducting fluid and to its boundary. This integral equation approach is applied to...conference paper 2006

Tian, H.Y. (author), Cai, H.M. (author), Xu, X. (author), Lai, J.H. (author)Removing noise effectively without destroying important fine structure is a challenging problem in image processing. Among many techniques, diffusion method is shown to be attractive due to its rigorous mathematical background and efficiency. In this paper we propose a well-balanced diffusion method by redefining the diffusion and regularization...conference paper 2011

Lu, Q. (author), Xu, W. (author), Van der Zwaag, S. (author)We report a computational 'alloy by design' approach which can significantly accelerate the design process and substantially reduce the development costs. This approach allows simultaneously optimization of alloy composition and heat treatment parameters based on the integration of thermodynamic, thermo-kinetics and a genetic algorithm...conference paper 2016

In 3D turbulent flows, the direct cascade of energy, characterized by a flux through scales, ε, is a strong source of irre- versibility. This irreversibility manifests itself in the asymmetry between negative and positive kinetic energy differences along particle trajectories. In particular, it is observed that the odd moments of the power of...conference paper 2015

Xu, Zhenhai (author), Gao, Jianming (author), Chen, Fei (author)Cement-based materials in sulfate rich areas will suffer from serious corrosion after semi-immersion. To study the degradation of cement mortars with different water cement ratio (w/c) partially exposed to sulfate solution, the mass change were employed to reveal damage progress. Moreover, porosity, erosion products and SO2 4 - content were...conference paper 2021

(author)Crystalline solids are solid materials whose constituent atoms, molecules, or ions are arranged in a highly regulated fashion. Due to lack of rotational freedom in their stacking, they have been known as fragile materials. Even though some efforts have been dedicated to bind or mend defects/cracks in amorphous materials like concrete or polymers...conference paper 2013

We elaborate different parts of spatial model such as geometry, topology and semantics, and then present how they contribute to the processing of indoor tracks. The initial results of our experiment reveal...conference paper 2015
