The general consensus is that the abundance of tap water bacteria is greatly influenced by water purification and distribution. Those bacteria that are released from biofilm in the distribution system are especially considered as the major potential risk for drinking water bio-safety. For the first time, this full-scale study has captured and...

Hong Kong is an immigrant city. Over 30% of population nowadays are immigrant from mainly China mainland, Malaysia, Philippine and UK (CSD, 2017). Sham Shui po is a typical arrival city that had successfully accommodated several generations of immigrants and help them rising to the local city middle class. Sham Shui Po is developed in 1920s. Its...

Norway is mostly known for its natural beauty, fjords and mountains, the amazing Northern Lights and the Midnight Sun - a great intimacy with nature. However, this impression we have of Norway, does not describe the real situation in Oslo.<br/>A total length of approximately 3,400 kilometres of Oslo’s coastline is mostly covered with paved...

Restoring and improving harmony between human activities and nature are essential to human well-being and survival. The role of wastewater infrastructure is evolving toward resource recovery to address this challenge. Yet, existing design approaches for wastewater systems focus merely on technological aspects of these systems. If system...

The mode-I interlaminar fracture toughness of composite laminates under different loading rates can be measured by the double cantilever beam (DCB) test. It is observed from the DCB test of a unidirectional PEEK/carbon composite laminate that as the loading rate increases from quasi-static to dynamic range: (1) delamination crack growth...

To overcome the congestion of geostationary orbit slots, previous work proposed to use vertically-displaced, non-Keplerian geostationary orbits by means of continuous low-thrust propulsion in the form of hybrid solar sail and solar electric propulsion (hybrid sail). This work extends and generalizes that concept by loosening the position...

The chemical irreversible hardening of epoxy modified bitumen is affected by various physical factors and the successful application of this technology is directly linked with full understanding of chemo-rheological material characteristics. This study proposes a model to describe the material viscosity evolution during hardening of epoxy...

During the last decades, people detection has received great attention in computer vision and pattern recognition because of its various applications. Though there are thousands of papers provide approaches for people detection, most of them focus on datasets from side view. People detection from overhead cameras, as an important situation for...

This work proposes a method for matching images from different domains in an unsupervised manner, and detecting outlier samples in the target domain at the same time. This matching problem is made difficult by i) the different domain images that are related but under different conditions (e.g. photos of the same location captured in different...

Crumb rubber-modified bitumen (CRMB) has been utilized in the asphalt paving industry for decades due to its various benefits. The complex interaction between bitumen and crumb rubber as well as the addition of warm-mix additives makes the typical laws of Newtonian fluids insufficient to describe the behaviors of highly modified bituminous...

Since the introduction of the concept of 3D cadastre, a great many of significant research results have been done. To promote the development of 3D cadatre, 3D cadastre working group sponsored by International Federation Surveyors (FIG) commissions 3 and 7 was organized by Delft University of Technology in 2001. This working group provides a...

Environmental burdens arise in the whole life cycle of construction. Waste and pollution are produced in the upstream and downstream of a construction project along the supply chains. The interdependency between on-site construction and off-site logistics also leads to an expansion effect of waste when a disturbance occurs. A related supply...

The Tropospheric Emission Spectrometer (TES) on the A-Train Aura satellite was designed to profile tropospheric ozone and its precursors, taking measurements from 2004 to 2018. Starting in 2008, TES global sampling of tropospheric ozone was gradually reduced in latitude, with global coverage stopping in 2011. To extend the record of TES, this...

The Pd-based metal membranes have been focused on many studies, because they are the most promising candidates for hydrogen separation. If Pd-based membranes are designed in nanoscale, then the introduced high volume fraction of grain boundaries can act as fast diffusion paths for hydrogen atoms that leading to an increase of hydrogen separation...

With urbanisation, city life is becoming more efficient and artificial. The pace of living is getting faster and the cosiness of slowing down are disappearing. Social warmth among people are decreasing in anonymous cities and spiritual restoration are being pushed away as nature is being pushed out of the expanding cities. This project tries to...

The high uncertainty of megaproject results in increasing complexity in the decisionmaking and ultimately leads to different degrees of cost overrun and project delays. One of the critical reasons for cost overrun and delay is the optimism bias of decision makers. Although the previous literature has analyzed the cost overrun distribution of...

Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions contribute to climate change. The public water utility of Amsterdam wants to operate climate neutrally in 2020 to reduce its GHG emissions. Energy recovery from the water cycle has a large potential to contribute to this goal: the recovered energy is an alternative for fossil fuel and thus contributes to the...

Ensuring the biological stability of drinking water is essential for modern drinking water supply. To understand and manage the biological stability, it is critical that the bacterial growth in drinking water can be measured. Nowadays, advance treatment technologies, such as reverse osmosis (RO), are increasingly applied in drinking water...
