Kootte, M.E. (author)Integrated electrical power flow simulations are concerned with solving the steady-state load flow problem on integrated transmission and distribution electricity networks. We have developed a framework to run these simulations efficiently, whilst keeping in mind the differences between these network types and accommodating the practical...doctoral thesis 2024

Sayadi, Sina (author), Chang, Z. (author), He, S. (author), Schlangen, E. (author), Mihai, I.C. (author), Jefferson, Anthony (author)This paper describes the development of a discrete lattice model for simulating structures formed from self-healing cementitious materials. In particular, a new approach is presented for simulating time dependent mechanical healing in lattice elements. The proposed formulation is designed to simulate the transient damage and healing behaviour...journal article 2023

Sensitivity of the seismic response of monopile-supported offshore wind turbines to soil variabilityPanagoulias, S. (author), de Winter, C. (author), Navalkar, S.T. (author), Nernheim, A. (author)The expansion of the offshore wind industry in areas with high seismicity has led to engineering challenges related to the design of the offshore wind turbines (OWTs). Monopiles, i.e., tubular steel piles of large outer diameter, low aspect ratio (penetration depth over outer diameter), and relatively thin pile wall, are traditionally the...journal article 2023

Caglar, Baris (author), Broggi, G.C. (author), Ali, Muhammad A. (author), Orgéas, Laurent (author), Michaud, Véronique (author)Knowledge of permeability of fibrous microstructures is crucial for predicting the mold fill times and resin flow path in composite manufacturing. Herein we report a method to rapidly predict the permeability of 3D fibrous microstructures. Our method relies on predicting the permeability of 2D cross-sections via deep neural networks and...conference paper 2022

Tang, Jiuyang (author), Li, Liangtao (author), Zhang, Kouchi (author), Zhang, Jing (author), Liu, Pan (author)Ultrasonic wedge bonding of aluminum (Al) wires is a widely applied interconnect technology for power electronic packaging. The joint quality of the wedge bonding is mainly affected by the process parameters and material properties. Inappropriate process parameters will lead to failure modes such as chip surface pit, metal layer peeling off,...journal article 2022

Wang, Houzhi (author), Wu, You (author), Yang, Jun (author), Wang, H. (author)Cracks are one of the main problems that plague road workers. A correct understanding of the internal crack propagation mechanism of asphalt pavement will help road workers evaluate the road’s working status more comprehensively and make more reasonable decisions in design, construction, and maintenance work. This paper established a three...journal article 2021

Sereeter, B. (author)During the normal operation, control and planning of the power system, grid operators employ numerous tools including the Power Flow (PF) and the Optimal Power Flow (OPF) computations to keep the balance in the power system. The solution of the PF computation is used to assess whether the power system can function properly for the given...doctoral thesis 2020

Kootte, M.E. (author), Sereeter, B. (author), Vuik, Cornelis (author)Steady-state power flow models are essential for daily operation of the electricity grid. The changing electrical environment requires a shift from separated power flow models to integrated transmission-distribution power flow models. Integrated models incorporate the coupling of the networks and the interaction that they have on each other,...conference paper 2020

Markensteijn, A.S. (author), Vuik, Cornelis (author)Coupling single-carrier networks into multi-carrier energy systems (MESs) has recently become more important. Various formulations of the single-carrier load flow problem (LFP) are used. Moreover, different coupling models lead to different integrated systems of equations for the LFP of MESs. Both could affect the convergence of the Newton...conference paper 2020

Tan, Xuyan (author), Chen, Weizhong (author), Wang, L. (author), Yang, Jianping (author)Shield tunneling is one of the most important technologies for building of underground engineering. Many grouting holes were prefabricated for the requirement of backfill grouting, which is easy to induce local damages and potential disasters, such as leakage and cracking. Accordingly, an integrated workflow for damage detection and stability...journal article 2020

Linear power flow method improved with numerical analysis techniques applied to a very large networkSereeter, B. (author), van Westering, W.H.P. (author), Vuik, Cornelis (author), Witteveen, C. (author)In this paper, we propose a fast linear power flow method using a constant impedance load model to simulate both the entire Low Voltage (LV) and Medium Voltage (MV) networks in a single simulation. Accuracy and efficiency of this linear approach are validated by comparing it with the Newton power flow algorithm and a commercial network design...journal article 2019
