Pisano, F. (author), Betto, D. (author), Della Vecchia, G. (author), Cremonesi, M. (author)Submarine buried pipelines are often laid in trenches backfilled with loose sandy soil, which is intrinsically prone to liquefaction. When liquefaction is triggered, the soil tends to behave as a viscous fluid with vanishing shear strength and very limited ability to restrain structural displacement, for instance during the occurrence of...journal article 2022

(author)The role of wall shear stress (WSS) in atherosclerotic plaque development is evident, but the relation between WSS and plaque composition in advanced atherosclerosis, potentially resulting in plaque destabilization, is a topic of discussion. Using our previously developed image registration pipeline, we investigated the relation between two...journal article 2022

Khakzad, Sina (author), Yang, M. (author), Lohi, Ali (author), Khakzad, N. (author)Oil and gas pipelines play a key role in the safe and efficient delivery of energy resources around the world. Crude oil by itself is not corrosive, but oil extracted from geological reservoirs is accompanied by varying amounts of water and acidic gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2), which can form a corrosive combination. Estimating the...journal article 2022

Stepanovic, K. (author), Wu, J. (author), Everhardt, Rob (author), de Weerdt, M.M. (author)The integration of pipeline energy storage in the control of a district heating system can lead to profit gain, for example by adjusting the electricity production of a combined heat and power (CHP) unit to the fluctuating electricity price. The uncertainty from the environment, the computational complexity of an accurate model, and the scarcity...journal article 2022

Cai, Jie (author), Jiang, X. (author), Yang, Yazhou (author), Lodewijks, Gabriel (author), Wang, Minchang (author)A corrosion defect is recognized as one of the most severe phenomena for high-pressure pipelines, especially those served for a long time. Finite-element method and empirical formulas are thereby used for the strength prediction of such pipes with corrosion. However, it is time-consuming for finite-element method and there is a limited...journal article 2022

Yurrita Semperena, M. (author), Murray-Rust, D.S. (author), Balayn, A.M.A. (author), Bozzon, A. (author)In an effort to regulate Machine Learning-driven (ML) systems, current auditing processes mostly focus on detecting harmful algorithmic biases. While these strategies have proven to be impactful, some values outlined in documents dealing with ethics in ML-driven systems are still underrepresented in auditing processes. Such unaddressed values...conference paper 2022

Sehgal, R.K. (author)Residue amplification plays a key role in determining the energy efficiency, area and performance of high-speed pipelined ADCs. At its core, a residue amplifier simply consists of four transistors that transfer a differential input voltage to a capacitive load with the desired gain. However, in order to ensure gain accuracy over PVT, the core...doctoral thesis 2021

Yeates, Christopher (author), Schmidt-Hattenberger, Cornelia (author), Weinzierl, Wolfgang (author), Bruhn, D.F. (author)Designing low-cost network layouts is an essential step in planning linked infrastructure. For the case of capacitated trees, such as oil or gas pipeline networks, the cost is usually a function of both pipeline diameter (i.e. ability to carry flow or transferred capacity) and pipeline length. Even for the case of incompressible, steady flow,...journal article 2021

Jiang, J. (author), Li, H. (author), Pourquie, M.J.B.M. (author), Ooms, G. (author), Henkes, R.A.W.M. (author)Core-annular flow is an efficient way of transporting viscous oil through a pipeline. A sharp increase in the pressure drop will occur when the oil waves at the water-oil interface touch the pipe wall. Depending on the oil and pipe material physical properties, the oil may adhere to the wall leading to fouling. Therefore, a necessary...journal article 2021
