Artificial intelligence powered large-scale renewable integrations in multi-energy systems for carbon neutrality transition: Challenges and future perspectives

The vigorous expansion of renewable energy as a substitute for fossil energy is the predominant route of action to achieve worldwide carbon neutrality. However, clean energy supplies in multi-energy building districts are still at the preliminary stages for energy paradigm transitions. In particular, technologies and methodologies for large...

DEM-based stress transmission in asphalt mixture skeleton filling system

Asphalt mixture is a skeleton filling system consisting of aggregate, asphalt, and mineral powder. High performance asphalt mixture design is directly affected by internal stress transmission of skeleton filling system. In this paper, the discrete element method based on digital image was employed to study the stress transmission. By...
