Collapse in steel structures is often controlled by loss of load carrying capacity of steel columns due to interactive buckling, which involves interactions between local and global (i.e., lateral and lateral torsional) buckling. Commonly used concentrated ...

This study proposes a multi-objective optimization methodology for planning multi-energy complementary distributed energy systems considering process synergy and thermal integration. The process integration tech-nique is integrated into the Energy Hub mode ...

Progress in digital pathology is hindered by high-resolution images and the prohibitive cost of exhaustive localized annotations. The commonly used paradigm to categorize pathology images is patch-based processing, which often incorporates multiple instanc ...

The tribocorrosion property of tungsten plays a great role in the chemical mechanical polishing of tungsten plugs used in integrated circuits. This study applied a lubricated tribocorrosion model to tungsten, verified and calibrated the model using results ...

This paper extends the authors' previous work on Control by Interconnection - Model Predictive Control (CbI-MPC) design for constrained port-Hamiltonian systems to deal with the unmeasurable system states. The first contribution resides in the CbI-oriented ...

This study presents an inter-comparison of three structurally different electricity system models (EXPANSE, Nexus-e, and OREES) with sub-national spatial resolution in Switzerland in 2035. We analyze technology and regional implications of three targets fo ...

The traditional sequential design of building elements, where every element performs only one dedicated function, carries significant embodied energy. Thus, modular pre-fabricated load-bearing elements could overcome the disadvantages of the current carbon ...

This study investigates the microstructure, phase formation, and mechanical properties of LC3-50 based auto-claved aerated blocks. The microstructure and phase formation is studied using SEM-EDS and X-ray diffraction techniques. The fresh and hardened prop ...

Carpooling is an efficient measure to fight car ownership and reduce vehicle kilometres travelled. By individuals sharing their commutes, vehicle occupancy increases and congestion is reduced. We develop a dynamic ADL (Arnott, de Palma, Lindsey)-Vickrey ap ...

District Energy Systems (DES) have been widely recognized as crucial components for successful national energy transitions towards meeting 2050 greenhouse gas emissions' reduction targets. While District Heating Network (DHN) still has a role to play in th ...

Choice-based optimization problems are the family of optimization problems that incorporate the stochasticity of individual preferences according to discrete choice models to make planning decisions. This integration brings non-convexity and nonlinearity t ...

Particulate sulfate is one of the most important components in the atmosphere. The observation of rapid sulfate aerosol production during haze events provoked scientific interest in the multiphase oxidation of SO2 in aqueous aerosol particles. Diverse oxid ...

LC3 is one of the most promising alternatives for a high-performance blended cement with a significantly lower clinker content and with potential for worldwide adoption. For this reason, understanding its long-term performance is relevant to ensure service ...

The meteorological conditions determine snow evolutions on and around buildings. Those climatic impacts have been independently considered in the current design codes of buildings, namely the wind pressure and the snow load. But snow load estimates are onl ...

The reaction kinetics of the alkali silica reaction depends on the composition of the pore solution. The evolution of the pore solution composition in different cement pastes and concretes was studied. Pastes containing silica fume or metakaolin had the lo ...

Humanitarian actors involved in physical rehabilitation, such as the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), usually provide their beneficiaries with lower-limb prostheses comprising Solid Ankle Cushion Heel (SACH) feet as these are considered app ...

Heat transfer measurements are required in a wide range of fields, for example to validate new cooling concepts in turbomachinery, to assess the performances of heat exchangers, and to provide data for numerical simulations. Thereby transient methods are o ...

The optimization of therapeutic antibodies is time-intensive and resource-demanding, largely because of the low-throughput screening of full-length antibodies (approximately 1 x 10(3) variants) expressed in mammalian cells, which typically results in few o ...
