Dong, J. (author), Viré, A.C. (author), Li, Zhangrui (author)In our previous study, the vortex ring state (VRS) prediction criteria were introduced from helicopter's realm and applied to floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs). The existence of the VRS on FOWTs was also successfully predicted.

Li, G. (author), Knoop, V.L. (author), van Lint, J.W.C. (author)Accurate short-term traffic forecasting is the cornerstone for Intelligent Transportation Systems. In the past several decades, many models have been proposed to continuously improve the predictive accuracy. A key but unsolved question is whether there is a theoretical bound to the accuracy with which traffic can be predicted and whether that...journal article 2022

Li, Ji (author), Hao, Xiaodi (author), Gan, W. (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author), Wu, Yuanyuan (author)Alginate like extracellular polymers (ALE) recovered from flocculent sludge has been identified as a kind of highly valuable biomaterials. However, the extraction protocols limit the production of biopolymers as ALE extracted from flocculent sludge is at a lower level, around 90–190 mg/g VSS. Under this circumstance, the eco-friendly and...journal article 2022
