CECM: a continuous empirical cubature method with application to the dimensional hyperreduction of parameterized finite element models
(Elsevier, 2024-01)
Article
Open AccessWe propose a method for finding optimal quadrature/cubature rules with positive weights for parameterized functions in 1D, 2D or 3D spatial domains. The method takes as starting point the values of the functions at the ... -
Life-cycle analysis of last-mile parcel delivery using autonomous delivery robots
(2023-08)
Article
Open AccessThe acceleration of global e-commerce brings an increasing environmental burden to urban last-mile logistics. Autonomous delivery robots (ADRs) have often been considered as an attractive solution to this challenge but, ... -
Models and explanatory variables in modelling failure for drinking water pipes to support asset management: a mixed literature review
(Springer, 2023-10-13)
Article
Open AccessThere is an increasing demand to enhance infrastructure asset management within the drinking water sector. A key factor for achieving this is improving the accuracy of pipe failure prediction models. Machine learning-based ... -
Analysis and comparison of the infrastructure report cards as a decision making tool for sustainable development
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-09)
Article
Open AccessInfrastructure plays a pivotal role in a nation’s economic and societal progress. However, due to the substantial expenses and the constraints of a limited government budget, the need to assess the condition of each ... -
Empirical Interscale Finite Element Method (EIFEM) for modeling heterogeneous structures via localized hyperreduction
(Elsevier, 2024-01)
Article
Open AccessThis work proposes a special type of Finite Element (FE) technology – the Empirical Interscale FE method – for modeling heterogeneous structures in the small strain regime, for both dynamic and static analyses. The method ... -
Global, regional, and national burden of diabetes from 1990 to 2021, with projections of prevalence to 2050: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021
(2023-06)
Article
Open AccessBackground Diabetes is one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide, and affects people regardless of country, age group, or sex. Using the most recent evidentiary and analytical framework from the Global ... -
An accurate approach to simulate friction stir welding processes using adaptive formulation refinement
(Elsevier, 2023-07-07)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyA novel Adaptive Formulation Refinement (AFR) strategy for Friction Stir Welding (FSW) problems is presented. In FSW, the accurate computation of strains is crucial to correctly predict the highly non-linear material ... -
Offshore electrical grid layout optimization for floating wind: a review
(2023-09)
Article
Open AccessElectrical grid layout optimization should consider the placements of turbines and substations and include effects such as wake losses, power losses in cables, availability of different cable types, reliability-based power ... -
Potential of retrofitted urban green infrastructure to reduce runoff: a model implementation with site-specific constraints at neighborhood scale
(2022-03)
Article
Open AccessThe urbanization has resulted in significant changes in the water balance. Urban Green Infrastructures (UGI) have become a promising method for reducing reoccurring floods whilst providing additional social and ecological ... -
Dataset of the temperature rise during granular flows in a rotating drum
(Elsevier, 2023-06)
Article
Open AccessThis paper provides experimental data on the temperature rise during granular flows in a small-scale rotating drum due to heat generation. All heat is believed to be generated by conversion of some mechanical energy, through ... -
Combining synthetic and observed data to enhance machine learning model performance for streamflow prediction
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-06)
Article
Open AccessMachine learning (ML) models have been shown to be valuable tools employed for streamflow prediction, reporting considerable accuracy and demonstrating their potential to be part of early warning systems to mitigate flood ... -
Is entropy an indicator of port traffic predictability? The evidence from Chinese ports
(2023-02)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyHistorical time-series data of container traffic in ports are characterised by strong randomness that causes the time-series prediction performance to vary significantly. In this sense, the prediction accuracy differs as ...
