Ma, Dayou (author), Li, X. (author), Manes, Andrea (author), Li, Yulong (author)Ice impact is quite common and may become critical especially if it involves the transportation sector. Simulation tools may help in the structural design phase to increase the ability to withstand this kind of impact and/or to analyse the effect under extreme weather conditions. Such tools require an accurate description of the mechanical...journal article 2023

Li, X. (author), Hulshoff, S.J. (author), Hickel, S. (author)Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) plays an important role in the analysis of complex nonlinear systems governed by partial differential equations (PDEs), since it can describe the full-order system in a simplified but representative way using a handful of dominant dynamic modes. However, determining a POD from the results of complex...journal article 2022

Zhang, Y. (author), Li, X. (author), van Hassel, E.B.H.J. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author), Atasoy, B. (author)In synchromodal transport, a freight forwarder usually serves multiple shippers with heterogeneous and vague preferences, such as low-cost, fast, or reliable transport. Ignoring shippers’ preferences will negatively impact the satisfaction of shippers and lead to the loss of them in the longer run. In order to incorporate these preferences, a...journal article 2022
