Su, Z. (author), Jamshidi, A. (author), Nunez, Alfredo (author), Baldi, S. (author), De Schutter, B.H.K. (author)We develop a Model Predictive Control (MPC) approach for condition-based maintenance planning under uncertainty for railway infrastructure systems composed of multiple components. Piecewise-affine models with uncertain parameters are used to capture both the nonlinearity and uncertainties in the deterioration process. To keep a balance...book chapter 2019

Su, J.F. (author), Qiu, J. (author), Schlangen, H.E.J.G. (author)Preservation and renovation bitumen of pavement is a big problem for the whole world. Traditionally, application rejuvenators is the only one method that can restore the original properties of the pavements. However, some puzzles still restrict its successful usage. Microencapsulation is a promising method to apply rejuvenator in bitumen. These...conference paper 2013

Chen, Y. (author), Tu, Q. (author), Su, N. (author)Event-led regeneration has become part of a deliberate urban policy strategy to position the host cities on the world agenda. Mega events such as the world expo need different facilities and services for an efficient operation of the expo during those three or six months. Most cities stressed exploring city marketing and reimaging effect of...conference paper 2014

Yao, P. (author), Stive, M.J.F. (author), Zhang, C. (author), Su, M. (author), Wang, Z.B. (author)In the South Yellow Sea off the Jiangsu coast, there exists a special type of sand bodies, which are known as radial sand ridge field (RSRF). One of the characteristics of this area is the distinctive radial tidal current field. Although many studies have focused on the hydrodynamic environment around radial sand ridges, the knowledge on the...conference paper 2013

Su, H.Z. (author), Wen, Z. (author), Yang, M. (author)The elastic-plastic mechanical behaviour is a typical characteristic of rock mass. The load action will bring on the local destruction, large deformation, even whole failure of rock mass with the discontinuous mediums (e.g. joint, crack and fault). It is a coupling process of the continuous deformation and the discontinuous deformation. The...conference paper 2015
