Zhu, Z. (author), Van Tooren, M.J.L. (author), Van der Elst, S.W.G. (author)Based on the use of dedicated software tools, Knowledge Based Engineering (KBE) techniques are able to capture and reuse engineering product and process knowledge to reduce time and cost during product development. In this paper a conceptual design of an automatic wire harness routing application is proposed, based on KBE. As the core of this...conference paper 2011

Zhao, J. (author), Stoter, J. (author), Ledoux, H. (author), Zhu, Q. (author)Many 3D GIS applications require 3D building models with different LoD (Level of Detail) that satisfy certain quality criteria. However, because of their complexity, most detailed 3D building models available are still produced manually, which results in inevitable geometric and topological errors. These errors hinder the downstream processing...conference paper 2012

We present direct numerical simulations of Taylor-Couette flow with grooved walls up to inner cylinder Reynolds number of $Re_i=3.76\times10^4$, corresponding to Taylor number of $Ta=2.15\times10^9$. The simulations are performed at a fixed radius ratio $\eta=r_i/r_o=0.714$. The grooves are axisymmetric V-shaped obstacles attached to the wall...conference paper 2015

Zhu, Y. (author), Peng, M. (author), Shi, Z. (author), Zhang, L. (author)The 2008 Mw 7.9 Wenchuan earthquake triggered at least 257 landslide dams, most of which formed in series along rivers. The failure of an upstream dam could cause the failure of dams downstream one after another. The cascade dam breaching may result in sharp increase of flood and more serious damage downstream. This paper aims to analyze the...conference paper 2015

Zhu, Z. (author), La Rocca, G. (author), Van Tooren, M.J.L. (author)Harness 3D routing in aircraft Electrical Wiring Interconnection System (EWIS) design is very complex because of both the intrinsic complexity of EWIS and the increasing number of design constraints. The complexity hinders the improvement of the design efficiency and makes the design error prone. Considering that many harness components are...conference paper 2015

Zhu, Y. (author), Goverde, R.M.P. (author)Unexpected disruptions occur frequently in railway systems, during which many train services cannot run as scheduled. This paper deals with timetable rescheduling during such disruptions, particularly in the case where all tracks between two stations are blocked for a few hours. In practice, the disruption length is uncertain, and a disruption...conference paper 2019
