(author), Vos, F.M. (author)The Couinaud classification of hepatic anatomy partitions the liver into eight functionally independent segments. Detection and segmentation of the hepatic vein (HV), portal vein (PV) and inferior vena cava (IVC) plays an important role in the subsequent delineation of the liver segments. To facilitate pharmacokinetic modeling of the liver...conference paper 2018

Wu, Yue (author), Liu, Xiuming (author), Li, Q. (author), Chen, Boxuan (author), Luo, Peng (author), Pronk, Arno (author), Mergny, Elke (author)By using inflatable moulds and then spraying cellulose-water mixture, one ice dome and two ice towers were built in Harbin in December 2016. During the whole process, form-finding of the inflatable moulds as well as the construction of these ice composite shell structures are very important for the final results.<br/>The mould for the ice dome...conference paper 2017

Wu, H. (author), Qian, QK (author), Visscher, H.J. (author), Straub, A. (author)Sustainable development has been the focus of all major industries in the world, especially in the construction industry. As one of the sustainable construction modes, housing industrialization (HI) is now absorbing a growing number of attentions that lead the industry to go green. However, the implementation of HI in China is far from...conference paper 2017

Kontakis, A. (author), Wu, S. (author), Verschuur, D.J. (author)The applicability of a deblending method is directly related to acquisition parameters, such as source and detector locations. We formulate focal deblending in two alternative ways. In the first case, the double focal transform is used, which relies on a well-sampled source and detector dimension. In the second case, the single-sided focal...conference paper 2016

(author), Wale, M. (author), Robbins, D. (author)Fully automated, high precision, cost-effective assembly technology for photonic packages remains one of the main challenges in photonic component manufacturing. Next to the cost aspect the most demanding assembly task for multiport photonic integrated circuits (PICs) is the high-precision (±0.1 μm) alignment and fixing required for optical I...conference paper 2016

Ching, J. (author), Wu, S.-H (author), Phoon, K.-K. (author)Due to limited information in site investigation, it is not possible to obtain the actual values for the mean, standard deviation, and scale of fluctuation of a soil property of interest. The deviation between the estimated values and actual values is called the statistical uncertainty. There are two schools of thoughts on how to model the...conference paper 2015

Wu, W. (author)Most of the research findings in evaluating slope stability using limit analysis are chart-based. No such stability chart is available to cover a wide range of material strength, slope geometries and external disturbance. Practitioners find it difficult to use the charts for a specific slope project. Compared with a large number of existing...conference paper 2015

Naeimi, M. (author), Li, Z. (author), Dollevoet, R.P.B.J. (author), Wu, J. (author), Petrov, R.H. (author), Sietsma, J. (author)The coupled mechanical–thermal behaviour of wheel and rail materials under rolling contact is studied to determine the temperature rise due to the frictional heat. The wheel–rail frictional rolling contact problem is solved using the three–dimensional finite element (FE) method. The FE model considers the wheel tread–rail top contact with...conference paper 2015

It is well known that fully developed turbulent free shear layers exhibit a high degree of order, characterized by large-scale coherent structures, i.e. spanwise vortex rollers. Extensive experimental investigations show that such organised motions bear remarkable resemblance to inviscid instability waves, and their main characteristics,...conference paper 2015

Li, Q. (author), Borgart, A. (author), Wu, Yue (author)Discrete networks is a kind of form-active structural system which actively change its shape under varying load conditions. And for this kind of structural system, form-finding is the initial and essential part in their design process. Before the computer age, people complete the form-finding process using physical models, while with the...conference paper 2015
