Liu, Zhiping (author), Li, Z. (author), Huang, Chuanhai (author), Jiang, X. (author)In this paper, we implement the combined method of drilling stop hole and FRP reinforcement to repair cracked steel plates subjected to cyclic tension. The crack initiation and growth are experimentally investigated. The stress distribution at the stop hole and the residual fatigue life are evaluated by the FEM.

Liu, Zhihui (author), Wang, Li (author), Kong, Fanlei (author), Huang, Xia (author), Tang, Zhi (author), He, Shi (author), Vink, P. (author)BACKGROUND: Many occupations require workers to stand for prolonged periods, which can cause discomfort, pain and even injures. Some supermarkets in life provide a foot pad for checkout staff to let them stand on it at work, thereby reducing standing fatigue caused by standing for a long time. The inclined platform is the same as the foot pad...journal article 2021

Wang, Ke (author), Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author), Yang, Yongsheng (author), Li, Jian (author), Huang, Quanyi (author)In China, storm surge disasters cause severe damages in coastal regions. One of the most critical tasks is to predict affected regions and their relative damage levels to support decision-making. This study develops a two-stage retrieval model to search the most similar past disaster case to complete prediction. Based on spatial attributes of...conference paper 2021

Kornich, V. (author), Huang, X. (author), Repin, E. (author), Nazarov, Y.V. (author)We propose a scheme to perform braiding and all other unitary operations with Majorana modes in one dimension that, in contrast to previous proposals, is solely based on resonant manipulation involving the first excited state extended over the modes. The detection of the population of the excited state also enables initialization and read-out...journal article 2021
