Zhao, Yingliang (author), Sun, Yong (author), Guo, Z. (author), Qiu, Jingping (author), Sun, Xiaogang (author)Hazardous wastes are commonly immobilized using cementitious materials. Ettringite (Ca<sub>6</sub>Al<sub>2</sub>(OH)<sub>12</sub>(SO<sub>4</sub>)<sub>3</sub>∙26H<sub>2</sub>O) is one of the main components of hydrated cement and is known to stabilize anionic species. Thus, it is a promising material for the stabilization of arsenate (As(V))...journal article 2023

(author), van Schijndel, Jessie (author), Kang, Yan (author), Katsifodimos, A (author)Machine learning (ML) training data is often scattered across disparate collections of datasets, called data silos. This fragmentation poses a major challenge for data-intensive ML applications: integrating and transforming data residing in different sources demand a lot of manual work and computational resources. With data privacy and...conference paper 2023

Sun, Yufeng (author), Pardoen, Benoît (author), van den Eijnden, A.P. (author), Wong, Henry (author)Clay rocks are multiphase porous media having a complex structure and behaviour characterised by heterogeneity, damage and viscosity, existing on a wide range of scales. The mesoscopic scale of mineral inclusions embedded in a clay matrix has an important role in the mechanisms of deformation under mechanical loading by cracking and creeping....journal article 2023

Nijhuis, S. (author), Sun, Yimin (author), Cannatella, D. (author), Xie, G. (author)Adaptive urban transformations employ landscape-based regional design as an integrative and multiscale design and planning approach for sustainable urban development. In this approach, natural and urban dynamics as derived from systems analysis set the pace and nature of adaptation. This chapter presents an initial strategy for adaptive urban...book chapter 2023

Sun, Yubo (author), Ghorbani, Saeid (author), Ye, G. (author), De Schutter, Geert (author)Alkali-activated material (AAM) is developed as a green alternative binder to replace Portland cement (PC) in the construction field. However, the large-scale application with AAM concrete is limited so far, with the insufficient knowledge of rheological behavior being a major obstruct. Thixotropy of concrete is of great interest, which can...book chapter 2023

Nijhuis, S. (author), Sun, Yimin (author), Lange, Eckart (author)Deltaic areas are amidst the most favourable territories around the globe. Their strategic location and superior quality of their soils are core factors supporting both human development and the rise of these regions as global economic hubs. At the same time, deltas are extremely vulnerable to multiple threats from both climate change and the...book chapter 2023

van Kampen, E. (author), Sun, B. (author)Adaptive dynamic programming (ADP) is a sub-field of approximate dynamic programming that deals with the adaptive control of continuous nonlinear dynamic systems. Its origins stem from dynamic programming in optimal control, but it is extended into a form where approximations are used to reduce the curse of dimensionality and reduce the need...book chapter 2023

Sun, Junzi (author), Tassanbi, A. (author), Obojski, Piotrek (author), Plantholt, Philip (author)The increasing demand for global air travel has intensified the urgency to mitigate aviation’s carbon emissions. Continuous monitoring of aircraft fuel efficiency and emissions has become an important task in aviation. One of the main challenges has been the lack of surveillance data for flights across oceans, specifically in the North Atlantic...conference paper 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

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

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
