Tzimiris, G. (author), Liu, X. (author), Scarpas, A. (author), Li, J. (author), Hofman, R. (author), Voskuilen, J. (author)Due to lightweight and flexibility, orthotropic steel deck bridges become popular the last decades but several problems were reported in relation to asphalt surfacing materials such as rutting, cracking, loss of bond between the surfacing system and steel deck. In the Netherlands a surfacing structure for orthotropic steel bridge decks mostly...conference paper 2013

Cai, Y. (author), Liu, Z. (author)According to the COLREGs, every Officer On Watch (OOW) shall at all times maintain a proper look-out. Among all the available means of look-out, sight is the most basic and commonly used one. OOWs always need to make a full appraisal of the situation and of the risk of collision by sight, including estimating the range and bearing. Unlike the...conference paper 2013

Liu, X. (author), Markine, V.L. (author), Shevtsov, I. (author), Dollevoet, R.P.B.J. (author)The continuous increasing demand of public transportation capacity requires the railway network operating in tight schedule. The high transporting volumes not only aggravate the degradation of railway infrastructure but also shorten the time for maintenance. Well-arranged infrastructure maintenance contributes to the budget reduction and...conference paper 2015

Liu, W. (author), Stappers, P.J. (author), Pasman, G.J. (author), Van der Helm, A.J.C. (author), Aprile, W.A. (author), Keller, I. (author)This study aimed to explore ways of user inputs through designing interactive game controllers with different type of sensor. From building four experiential prototypes on Pong, we learned to drive design by focusing on interaction qualities, which determine the use of sensors. We found that the interaction qualities together as a set offer a...conference paper 2012

Liu, Y. (author), Wapenaar, C.P.A. (author), Romdhane, A. (author)Seismic interferometry (SI) is usually implemented by crosscorrelation (CC) to retrieve the impulse response between pairs of receiver positions. An alternative approach by multidimensional deconvolution (MDD) has been developed and shown in various studies the potential to suppress artifacts due to irregular source distribution and intrinsic...conference paper 2014

Chen, Y.C. (author), Liu, W. (author)The interactions in IT supported activities in a Generation Y work context were studied and discussed, which general design guidelines have een revealed. However, further research about practical design guidelines hasn’t been performed. This study aims to serve as supplement of this part based on previous research. By applying contextual...conference paper 2012

(author)A Fourier phase grating mirror will be applied to split a single, coherent terahertz source beam into multi-beams, which are spatially distributed as required for the local oscillator in an array receiver. We report on the simulation, design and fabrication of a Fourier phase grating at 1.25 THz for generating 2×2 beams, and the measurements at...conference paper 2015

Deng, Feilian (author), Zuo, Chenjia (author), Liu, Yanbo (author), Liu, Xianpeng (author)The incorporation of macro fibers have been an effective method to improve the mechanical and durability properties of concrete. As the mechanical properties of Macro fiber reinforced concrete are mostly tested at room temperatures, the effect of ambient temperature on the mechanical properties have been rarely reported. In this investigation,...conference paper 2021

(author)Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a contactless and non-destructive testing (NDT) technique based on lowcoherence interferometry. It has recently become a popular NDT-tool for evaluating cultural heritage. In this study, protective coatings on wood and their penetration into the wood structure were measured with a customized infrared fiber...conference paper 2015

Li, J. (author), Liu, X. (author), Scarpas, A. (author), Tzimiris, G. (author)Light weight orthotropic steel bridge decks have been widely utilized for bridges in seismic zones, movable bridges and long span bridges. In the last three decades, severe problems were reported in relation to asphaltic surfacing materials on orthotropic steel deck bridges. Earlier investigations have shown that the bonding strength of membrane...conference paper 2013
