Yuan, S. (author), Aubry, P.J. (author), Fioranelli, F. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)The ambiguity problem of targets in Doppler beam sharpening (DBS) with forward-looking radar is considered. While DBS is proposed earlier to improve the angular resolution of the radar while keeping the antenna aperture size limited, such a solution suffers from ambiguities in the case of targets positioned symmetrically with respect to the...journal article 2022

Liu, Y. (author), Houwing, E.J. (author), Hertogh, M.J.C.M. (author), Yuan, Ziwei (author), Liu, Huimin (author)Research on explorative learning has primarily focused on the organizational level. Not much research has been done at the megaproject level, which is a more complex form of organizing. Therefore, it is advisable to analyze how the pursuit of explorative learning is enabled at the megaproject level. This research draws upon the case study of...journal article 2022

Lin, Yingyun (author), Xu, Jiyao (author), van den IJssel, J.A.A. (author), Yuan, Wei (author)One of the most important parameters in the atmosphere, the neutral temperature, becomes difficult to measure at high altitudes such as the exosphere. Therefore, based on the assumption of static equilibrium and isothermal atmosphere, a new method was developed to derive quiet-time exospheric temperatures using neutral atmospheric densities from...journal article 2022
