Liu, Zhengqiang (author), Liu, Di (author), Yu, Wenwu (author), Baldi, S. (author)In recent years, platooning solutions like cooperative adaptive cruise control (CACC) have been deeply studied. It is common in such platooning literature to assume that the vehicles drive on the same lane (longitudinal platooning). At the same time, lateral control during merging maneuvers is commonly addressed as a path planning problem, in...conference paper 2022

Cai, Yuxin (author), Liu, Qing feng (author), Yu, Linwen (author), Meng, Zhaozheng (author), Hu, Zhe (author), Yuan, Qiang (author), Šavija, B. (author)Fresh concrete needs vibration to compact, fill the mould and reach a dense state. During the compaction process, coarse aggregates (CAs) tend to settle, affecting the homogeneity and eventually the long-term durability of hardened concrete. In this study, a 3-D, multi-phase numerical model for fresh concrete is developed for better...journal article 2021

(author)Nanomagnets are widely used to store information in non-volatile spintronic devices. Spin waves can transfer information with low-power consumption as their propagations are independent of charge transport. However, to dynamically couple two distant nanomagnets via spin waves remains a major challenge for magnonics. Here we experimentally...journal article 2020
