Liu, Di (author), Besselink, Bart (author), Baldi, S. (author), Yu, Wenwu (author), Trentelman, Harry L. (author)Despite the progress in the field of longitudinal formations of automated vehicles, only recently an interpretation of longitudinal platooning has been given in the framework of disturbance decoupling, i.e. the problem of making a controlled output independent of a disturbance. The appealing feature of this interpretation is that the...journal article 2022

Cai, Liying (author), Lu, Zhenghao (author), Tang, Z. (author), Yu, Xiaopeng (author)This letter presents a low-power dB-linear variable gain amplifier (VGA) with a small linear-in-dB error over a wide gain tuning range. An exponential current ratio is realized in the linear-in-dB control circuit based on the subthreshold I-V characteristic. The VGA is built with subthreshold common-gate transistors as current steering,...journal article 2022

Yu, Y. (author), Shekhar, A. (author), Chandra Mouli, G.R. (author), Bauer, P. (author)This paper benchmarks the performance of three practical electric vehicle (EV) charging scheduling methods relative to uncontrolled charging (UNC) in low-voltage (LV) distribution grids. The charging methods compared are the voltage droop method (VDM), price-signal-based method (PSM) and average rate method (ARM). Trade-offs associated with the...journal article 2022

Li, Lingjie (author), Yu, Wenjian (author), Batselier, K. (author)In recent years, the application of tensors has become more widespread in fields that involve data analytics and numerical computation. Due to the explosive growth of data, low-rank tensor decompositions have become a powerful tool to harness the notorious curse of dimensionality. The main forms of tensor decomposition include CP...journal article 2022

Zhang, Xinglong (author), Pan, W. (author), Scattolini, Riccardo (author), Yu, Shuyou (author), Xu, Xin (author)Koopman operators are of infinite dimension and capture the characteristics of nonlinear dynamics in a lifted global linear manner. The finite data-driven approximation of Koopman operators results in a class of linear predictors, useful for formulating linear model predictive control (MPC) of nonlinear dynamical systems with reduced...journal article 2022

Chen, Cong (author), Batselier, K. (author), Yu, Wenjian (author), Wong, Ngai (author)Tensor, a multi-dimensional data structure, has been exploited recently in the machine learning community. Traditional machine learning approaches are vector- or matrix-based, and cannot handle tensorial data directly. In this paper, we propose a tensor train (TT)-based kernel technique for the first time, and apply it to the conventional...journal article 2022

(author)The threat of global climate change has caused the international community to pay close attention to atmospheric levels of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide. Transportation sector carbon dioxide emissions efficiency (TSCDEE) is a key indicator used to prioritize sustainable development in the transportation sector. In this paper, the...journal article 2022

S. (author)The retrogression and re-aging (RRA) processes, aimed mainly at tailoring intergranular precipitates, could significantly improve the corrosion resistance (i.e., stress corrosion cracking resistance) without considerably decreasing the strength, which signifies that an efficient control of the size, distribution and evolution of intergranular...journal article 2022

(author), Yu, Haishan (author), Liu, Huiwen (author), Zhou, Weiduo (author)Very few developed economies have a full free trade agreement (FTA) with China. This study employs one GTAP model and builds an extended environmental multi-region input–output model to investigate a hypothetical China-UK FTA, concerning embodied industrial emissions of SO2, PM2.5, NOX, and NH3. The economic sectors are also classified based on...journal article 2022

(author), Wei, Jiangxiong (author), Yu, Qijun (author)A structure-based modelling framework was established to simulate the three-dimensional autogenous shrinkage of cement paste. A cement hydration model, HYMOSTRUC3D-E, was used to obtain the microstructures and ionic concentrations of the cement paste. A lattice fracture model based on the effective stress and effective modulus was used to...journal article 2022

(author), Liu, Junguo (author), Luo, Hongyan (author), Tang, Yingdong (author)Climate change and rapid urbanization have made it difficult to predict the risk of pollution in cities under different types of rainfall. In this study, a data-driven approach to quantify the effects of rainfall characteristics on river pollution was proposed and applied in a case study of Shiyan River, Shenzhen, China. The results indicate...journal article 2022

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
