Liu, Tao (author), Ji, Wen (author), Gkiotsalitis, Konstantinos (author), Cats, O. (author)Transfer optimization in public transport (PT) networks can be achieved through coordinated timetabling and vehicle scheduling. Traditionally, the coordinated timetabling problem is solved first before proceeding to the vehicle scheduling problem. The integration of these two problems can help further reduce the total operation cost and...journal article 2023

Liu, Z. (author)Garments, one of the human basic needs, were customized and handmade before the Industrial Revolution. After the realization of mass production, the cost of a piece of clothing became lower, but some disadvantages arose. Garments were no longer made to measure and overproduction caused environmental problems. The new developments in digital...doctoral thesis 2023

(author)The performance of engineered cementitious composites (ECCs) under coupled salt freezing and loaded conditions is important for its application on the transportation infrastructure. However, in most of the studies, the specimens were generally loaded prior to the freezing. The influence of sustained load was merely considered. To this end,...journal article 2023

Feng, Z. (author), Ferrari, Riccardo M.G. (author), van Wingerden, J.W. (author), Liu, Y. (author)Wind turbines may experience local weather perturbation, which is not taken into account by the commonly-used wind turbine simulation packages. Without this information, it is extremely challenging to evaluate the controller performance with regard to the effect of the variation of local atmospheric conditions. On the other side, it is too...conference paper 2023

Luo, Maoyi (author), Wang, Hang (author), Zheng, Xiaohui (author), Wüthrich, D. (author), Bai, Ruidi (author), Liu, Shanjun (author)In high dam construction projects in China, stilling basin design with an abrupt bottom drop is sometimes introduced to reduce the bottom velocity and pressure loads by generating A-type hydraulic jumps. Although the stilling basin design is not new, A-type hydraulic jumps have not been studied taking into account the air entrainment and...journal article 2023

Liu, L. (author), Xie, F. (author), Popov, M. (author), Hao, Zhiguo (author), Lekić, A. (author)This article presents an accurate DC fault location method that applies parameter fitting. This technique first discusses the traveling wave (TW) propagation process in the decoupled line-mode network. We obtain the exact fault distance equation based on the analytical expressions for the wavefront of backward line-mode voltage TW. The adaptive...conference paper 2023

Xie, F. (author), Liu, L. (author), Hao, Zhiguo (author), Lekić, A. (author), Popov, M. (author)Existing line protection methods for multi-terminal direct current (MTDC) systems are constrained by the placement and values of boundary elements. To overcome this limitation, this paper proposes a non-unit DC line protection method based on the normalized backward traveling waves (BTWs) of the 1-mode voltage. Firstly, this article studies...conference paper 2023

In this paper, we investigate a specific case where a nano quadcopter robot learns to navigate an apriori-unknown cluttered environment under partial observability. We present a...conference paper 2023

(author)Wave breaking is the main mechanism that dissipates energy from ocean waves by wind. Its effects on the frequency spectrum cause a downshift of the spectral peak and dissipation of the total energy of the spectrum. Various reduced-form wave breaking models have been developed to capture wave breaking in envelope-based wave evolution equations...journal article 2023
