Cheng, H. (author), Weemstra, C. (author), Hendriks, M.A.N. (author), Yang, Y. (author)Coda wave interferometry (CWI) holds promise as a technique for concrete stress monitoring. This is because the coda, which consists of multiply scattered arrivals, is the result of propagation through the medium over large distances. As such, it is sensitive to both minute structural changes and small velocity changes in that medium....journal article 2023

Xu, Y. (author), Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author), Yang, M. (author), Yuan, S. (author), Chen, Chao (author)Domino accidents are typical low-frequency and high-consequence events in chemical process industries. Applying quantitative risk assessment (QRA) in domino accident assessment is challenging due to the uncertainties in the escalation process. Meanwhile, the outcomes of QRA are subject to a certain degree of unreliability due to the...journal article 2023
