Sun, Z. (author), Wagasing Arachchige, W.A.A.S. (author), Anupam, K. (author), Kasbergen, C. (author), Erkens, S. (author)In the context of climate change and global warming, the attention on the environmental cost of pavements is increasing. To scientifically quantify the environmental cost of pavements, accurate prediction of rolling resistance and fuel consumption is important. In this paper, a comprehensive review on rolling resistance of asphalt pavements...review 2023

Van Schijndel, B. A.Strack (author), Sun, S. (author), de Visser, C.C. (author)This paper presents a novel method for fast and robust detection of actuator failures on quadrotors. The proposed algorithm has very little model dependency. A Kalman estimator estimates a stochastic effectiveness factor for every actuator, using only onboard RPM, gyro and accelerometer measurements. Then, a hypothesis test identifies the...conference paper 2023

Sun, D. (author), Jamshidnejad, A. (author), De Schutter, B.H.K. (author)We propose a novel method to improve the convergence performance of model predictive control (MPC) for setpoint tracking, by introducing sub-references within a multilevel MPC structure. In some cases, MPC is implemented with a short prediction horizon due to limited on-line computation capacity, which could lead to deteriorated dynamic...journal article 2023

(author)This paper presents a research on the chloride penetration behavior of engineered cementitious composites (ECC) under sustained flexural loads. Three load levels, i.e. 30 %, 60 % and 75 % of the ultimate flexural load were used. Chloride diffusion depth and concentration profile were measured 30, 60 and 150 days after the specimen was exposed...journal article 2023

Yang, M. (author), Sun, H. (author), Geng, S. (author)Recent years have seen the increasing complexity of engineered systems. Complexity and uncertainty also exist in engineered systems’ interactions with human operators, managers, and the organization. Resilience, focusing on a system's ability to anticipate, absorb, adapt to, and recover from disruptive situations, can provide an umbrella concept...journal article 2023

de Vries, J.W. (author), Sun, M. (author), de Groot, N.M.S. (author), Hendriks, R.C. (author)Estimating tissue conductivity parameters from electrograms (EGMs) could be an important tool for diagnosing and treating heart rhythm disorders such as atrial fibrillation (AF). One of these parameters is the fibre direction, often assumed to be known in conductivity estimation methods. In this paper, a novel method to estimate the fibre...conference paper 2023

Jeschke, J.M. (author), Sun, D. (author), Jamshidnejad, A. (author), De Schutter, B.H.K. (author)While Model Predictive Control (MPC) is a promising approach for network-wide control of urban traffic, the computational complexity of the, often nonlinear, online optimization procedure is too high for real-time implementations. In order to make MPC computationally efficient, this paper introduces a parameterized MPC (PMPC) approach for...journal article 2023

(author)With the development of internet of vehicles and automated driving, individual-based trajectory control at intersections becomes possible. Trajectory planning and coordination for connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) have been studied at isolated “signal-free” intersections and in “signal-free” corridors under the fully CAV environment in...journal article 2023

(author)The performance of engineered cementitious composites (ECCs) under coupled salt freezing and loaded conditions is important for its application on the transportation infrastructure. However, in most of the studies, the specimens were generally loaded prior to the freezing. The influence of sustained load was merely considered. To this end,...journal article 2023

Gareth (author), Sun, Zhanli (author), Berger, Thomas (author)There has so far been no shared understanding of validity in agent-based simulation. We here conceptualise validation as systematically substantiating the premises on which conclusions from simulation analysis for a particular modelling context are built. Given such a systematic perspective, validity of agent-based models cannot be ensured if...journal article 2023
