An MPC-Based Rescheduling Algorithm for Disruptions and Disturbances in Large-Scale Railway NetworksCavone, Graziana (author), van den Boom, A.J.J. (author), Blenkers, Lex (author), Dotoli, Mariagrazia (author), Seatzu, Carla (author), De Schutter, B.H.K. (author)Railways are a well-recognized sustainable transportation mode that helps to satisfy the continuously growing mobility demand. However, the management of railway traffic in large-scale networks is a challenging task, especially when both a major disruption and various disturbances occur simultaneously. We propose an automatic rescheduling...journal article 2022

Xin, J. (author), Meng, Chuang (author), D'Ariano, Andrea (author), Wang, Dongshu (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author)Energy consumption is expected to be reduced while maintaining high productivity for container handling. This paper investigates a new energy-efficient scheduling problem of automated container terminals, in which quay cranes (QCs) and lift automated guided vehicles (AGVs) cooperate to handle inbound and outbound containers. In our scheduling...journal article 2022

Langendam, Thijmen S. L. (author), Bidarra, Rafael (author)Wave Function Collapse (WFC) is a powerful generative algorithm, able to create locally-similar output based on a single example input. One of the inherent limitations of the original WFC is that it often requires users to understand its inner workings, and possibly make their own ad-hoc mods, to achieve satisfactory results. Besides...conference paper 2022

Sun, Beibei (author), Sun, Yubo (author), Ye, G. (author), De Schutter, Geert (author)In this paper, a series of experiments were conducted to systematically and quantitively explore the effects of control factors on the early age properties, i.e., workability and strength of slag and fly ash-based alkali-activated paste (BFS/FA-AAP). The control factors on the workability (flowability and setting time) of BFS/FA-AAP include...journal article 2022

Elsinga, G.E. (author), Ishihara, T. (author), Hunt, J. C.R. (author)The Richardson-scaling law states that the mean square separation of a fluid particle pair grows according to twithin the inertial range and at intermediate times. The theories predicting this scaling regime assume that the pair separation is within the inertial range and that the dispersion is local, which means that only eddies at the scale...journal article 2022

Xiao, Hong (author), Ling, Xing (author), Wang, Meng (author), Fang, Shu Wei (author), Wang, Haoyu (author)The bonding contact presents complex modes in polyurethane-mixed ballast. The commonly used parallel bond model is revised and four different contact models are developed including Ballast-Ballast Contact Bonding, Ballast-Ballast Noncontact Bonding, Ballast-Sleeper Contact Bonding, and Ballast-Sleeper Noncontact Bonding. The mechanical...journal article 2022

Gonzales, A. (author), van Lier, J.B. (author), de Kreuk, M.K. (author)The pre-treatment of waste activated sludge (WAS) has become more common since it often results in improved bioconversion to methane, in both rate and extent. However, thorough insights on the possible effects and mechanisms of mild pre-treatment techniques, such as temperatures <100 °C combined with the addition of H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2<...journal article 2022

(author)The lipid fraction of the effluents generated in several food-processing activities can be transformed into polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) and triacylglycerides (TAGs), through open culture biotechnologies. Although competition between storing and non-storing populations in mixed microbial cultures (MMCs) has been widely studied, the right...journal article 2022

Reddy, N. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author), Farah, H. (author)Future traffic will be composed of both human-driven vehicles (HDVs) and automated vehicles (AVs). To accurately predict the performance of mixed traffic, an important aspect is describing HDV behavior when interacting with AVs. A few exploratory studies show that HDVs change their behavior when interacting with AVs, being influenced by...journal article 2022

Wang, L. (author), Vuik, Cornelis (author), Hajibeygi, H. (author)Simulation of fracture contact mechanics in deformable fractured media is of paramount important in computational mechanics. Previous studies have revealed that compressive loading may produce mode II fractures, which is quite different from mode I fractures induced by tensile loading. Furthermore, fractures can cross each other. This will...journal article 2022

Although there is an abundance of negotiation strategies implemented in automated negotiating agents, most agents are based on single fixed strategies, while it is acknowledged that there is no single best-performing strategy for all negotiation settings. In this...conference paper 2022

Harrison, J. (author), Alderliesten, T. (author), Bosman, P.A.N. (author)Genetic Programming (GP) can make an important contribution to explainable artificial intelligence because it can create symbolic expressions as machine learning models. Nevertheless, to be explainable, the expressions must not become too large. This may, however, limit their potential to be accurate. The re-use of subexpressions has the...conference paper 2022
