Wang, Y. (author), Hosseinimehr, S.M. (author), Marelis, A.A. (author), Hajibeygi, H. (author)We develop a multiscale simulation strategy, namely, algebraic dynamic multilevel (ADM) method, for simulation of fluid flow and heat transfer in fractured geothermal reservoirs under varying thermodynamic conditions. Fractures with varying conductivities are modeled using the projection-based embedded discrete fracture model (pEDFM) in an...journal article 2023

Zhang, Z. (author), Wang, Y. (author), Vuik, Cornelis (author), Hajibeygi, H. (author)We present an efficient compositional framework for simulation of CO2 storage in saline aquifers with complex geological geometries during a lifelong injection and migration process. To improve the computation efficiency, the general framework considers the essential hydrodynamic physics, including hysteresis, dissolution and capillarity, by...conference paper 2023

(author)A three-phase buck-type rectifier features a step-down ac-dc conversion function, which is considered as a prominent solution for electric vehicle chargers and telecommunication systems integrated to the grid above 380 V line to line. However, traditional solutions for those applications employ cascaded architectures with an ac-dc boost-type...journal article 2022

Wang, Y. (author), Vuik, Cornelis (author), Hajibeygi, H. (author)CO2 injection into deep saline aquifers has shown to be a feasible option, as for their large storage capacity under safe operational conditions. Previous studies have revealed that CO2 can be trapped in the subsurface by several mechanisms. Despite the major advances in studying these trapping mechanisms, their dynamic interactions in different...journal article 2022

Wang, Y. (author), Vuik, Cornelis (author), Hajibeygi, H. (author)Natural or induced fractures are typically present in subsurface geological formations. Therefore, they need to be carefully studied for reliable estimation of the long-term carbon dioxide storage. Instinctively, flow-conductive fractures may undermine storage security as they increase the risk of CO2 leakage if they intersect the CO2 plume. In...journal article 2022

Wang, Y. (author), Viseu Cardoso, Rodrigo (author), Forgaci, C. (author)This paper presents the concept of urban pandemic vulnerability as a crucial framework for understanding how COVID-19 affects cities and how they react to pandemics. We adapted existing social and environmental urban vulnerability frameworks to assess pandemic impacts and responses, identifying the appropriate components and spatial,...journal article 2022

Yao, Y. (author), Zhang, Q. (author), HU, Y. (author), Meo, C. (author), Wang, Y. (author), Nanetti, Andrea (author), Dauwels, J.H.G. (author)We typically search for images by keywords, e.g., when looking for images of apples, we would enter the word “apple” as query. However, there are limitations. For example, if users input keywords in a specific language, then they may miss results labeled in other languages. Moreover, users may have an image of the object they want to obtain more...conference paper 2022

(author), Dauwels, J.H.G. (author)Workflow analysis is a young research field that has been gaining traction in recent years. Work in this field aims to improve the efficiency and safety in operating rooms by analysing surgical processes and providing feedback or support, where observations are made and evaluated by algorithms rather than human experts. For our study, we mount...conference paper 2022

(author)Extreme precipitation usually leads to substantial impacts. Floods in the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany in the summer of 2021 have caused loss of lives, destruction of infrastructures, and long-term effect on economics. To avoid such disasters, it is important to develop a reliable and accurate method to predict heavy rain.conference paper 2022
