XUN, L. (author), Mosleh, Yasmine (author), Sun, Baozhong (author), Pascoe, J.A. (author), Gu, Bohong (author)3-D braided composites are a promising material for manufacturing tubular structures. However, a thorough understanding of their damage mechanisms under torsion is required to maximize their potential applications. The present work constructed a multiscale equivalent model, integrating mesoscopic and homogeneous structures to reveal torsional...journal article 2024

Quispe Haro, Juan José (author), Chen, Fei (author), Los, R. (author), Shi, Shuqi (author), Sun, Wenjun (author), Chen, Yong (author), Idema, T. (author), Wegner, Seraphine V. (author)The transition of bacteria from an individualistic to a biofilm lifestyle profoundly alters their biology. During biofilm development, the bacterial cell-cell adhesions are a major determinant of initial microcolonies, which serve as kernels for the subsequent microscopic and mesoscopic structure of the biofilm, and determine the resulting...journal article 2024

Sun, D. (author)This thesis focuses on management and control of traffic networks, including urban networks and freeway networks, in which we aim to reduce traffic congestion by minimizing the total time spent of all the vehicles in the network, and also consider green mobility by minimizing the total emissions produced by the vehicles. In this thesis, we have...doctoral thesis 2023

Sun, Chang (author)The city Winnipeg, built on the wet prairie, has been threatened by severe flooding for decades. The initial decision to build the city at the confluence of the Red and Assiniboine rivers led to the inevitable consequence of recurrent natural flooding. The floods prompted the provincial government to take a series of flood control structural...master thesis 2023

Li, Wanda (author), Xu, Zhiwei (author), Sun, Yi (author), Gong, Qingyuan (author), Chen, Y. (author), Ding, Aaron Yi (author), Wang, Xin (author), Hui, Pan (author)Outstanding users (OUs) denote the influential, 'core' or 'bridge' users in online social networks. How to accurately detect and rank them is an important problem for third-party online service providers and researchers. Conventional efforts, ranging from early graph-based algorithms to recent machine learning-based approaches, typically rely on...journal article 2023

Fang, B. (author), Moultos, O. (author), Lü, Tao (author), Sun, Jiaxin (author), Liu, Z. (author), Ning, Fulong (author), Vlugt, T.J.H. (author)Hydrate dissociation is often accompanied by the formation of nanobubbles. Knowledge of the effects of nanobubbles on hydrate dissociation is essential for understanding the dynamic behavior of the hydrate phase change and improving the gas production efficiency. Here, molecular dynamics simulations were performed to study the methane hydrate...journal article 2023

Zhao, Jing (author), Knoop, V.L. (author), Sun, Jian (author), Ma, Zian (author), Wang, M. (author)Path dispersion (the spatial distribution of vehicular paths) is an important feature of traffic flow inside intersections and differs from traffic flow running along traffic lanes at road segment, especially under conflicting movements. The path dispersion reflects the operational features of traffic flow and is related to driving behaviour,...journal article 2023

Li, Z. (author), Sun, W. (author), Hai, R. (author), Bozzon, A. (author), Katsifodimos, A (author)The proliferation of pre-trained ML models in public Web-based model zoos facilitates the engineering of ML pipelines to address complex inference queries over datasets and streams of unstructured content. Constructing optimal plan for a query is hard, especially when constraints (e.g. accuracy or execution time) must be taken into consideration...conference paper 2023

Xie, Weiming (author), Sun, J. (author), Guo, Leicheng (author), Xu, Fan (author), Wang, Xianye (author), Ji, Hongyu (author), Fan, Yaoshen (author), Wang, Zhengbing (author), He, Qing (author)Coastal tidal flats provide valuable ecosystems, but are highly sensitive to tidal dynamics, sea-level rise, and human activities. Tidal inundation depth and frequency are known to affect tidal flat morphodynamics. However, the causes, processes and extent remain uncertain, particularly given the associated changes in sediment availability. In...journal article 2023

Jamshidnejad, A. (author), Sun, D. (author), Ferrara, Antonella (author), De Schutter, B.H.K. (author)Model predictive control (MPC) has been widely used for traffic management, such as for minimizing the total time spent or the total emissions of vehicles. When long-term green urban mobility is considered including e.g. a constraint on the total yearly emissions, the optimization horizon of the MPC problem is significantly larger than the...journal article 2023

Olive, Xavier (author), Sun, Junzi (author), Basora, Luis (author), Spinielli, Enrico (author)In this paper, we analyze two months of trajectory data for aircraft landing in five major European airports. Based on open ADS-B data from the OpenSky Network and open performance models, we enrich all trajectories with automatically detected procedure information, fuel consumption, and emissions for supported aircraft types. To assess the...journal article 2023

Roosenbrand, E.J. (author), Sun, Junzi (author), Hoekstra, J.M. (author)Contrails contribute to global warming by trapping outgoing terrestrial radiation, exerting an immediate warming influence on the climate. The climatic impact of contrails is potentially comparable to that of aviation’s carbon emissions. This underlines the importance of minimizing contrail formation to mitigate the climate effects of aviation,...conference paper 2023

Sun, D. (author), Jamshidnejad, A. (author), De Schutter, B.H.K. (author)Traffic control is essential to reduce congestion in both urban and freeway traffic networks. These control measures include ramp metering and variable speed limits for freeways, and traffic signal control for urban traffic. However, current traffic control methods are either too simple to respond to complex traffic environment, or too...journal article 2023

Mixed-traffic road segments are one of the most common traffic scenes where the mixed two-wheeler flows exist. Because the movements are often not restricted by lanes, the two-wheeler uses lateral road...journal article 2023
