Chen, N. (author), van Arem, B. (author), Wang, M. (author)Connected Automated Vehicles (CAVs) have the potential to improve traffic operations when they cooperatively maneuver in merging sections. State-of-the-art approaches in cooperative merging either build on heuristics solutions or prohibit mainline CAVs to change lane on multilane highways. This paper proposes a hierarchical cooperative...journal article 2022

Yang, Yapin (author), Sun, Ying (author), Chen, Mingsi (author), Zhou, Yuekuan (author), Wang, Ran (author), Liu, Zhengxuan (author)Fire at a construction site usually results in serious accidents. Therefore, fire management at the construction site is critical to decreasing possible accidents. However, conventional fire safety management can be problematic in many aspects, such as visualization, multi-stage alarm systems, and dynamic escape route optimization. To solve...journal article 2022

(author), Xu, Chunyang (author), Chen, Yongping (author)The erosion threshold, beyond which bed sediments start to move, is a key parameter describing sediment transport processes. For silt-dominated mixtures, in which the grain size is between sand and clay, existing experimental studies exhibit contradictory observations. That is, the erosion was either sand-like or clay-like, suggesting...journal article 2022
