It is now widely accepted that the standard method for daylighting evaluation - the daylight factor – is due for replacement with metrics founded on absolute values for luminous quantities predicted over the course of a full year using sun and sky conditio ...
Traffic simulation has been extensively used as a decision support tool for efficient traffic management in daily life. During disasters and incidents, traffic simulation can further help rescue teams to understand the current traffic state and the possibl ...
Simulation is a key issue in the design of control electrical systems. Simulation packages using component library, such as PSIM®, are very useful to achieve this goal. The simulation model is thus easily built from the system topology (structural model). ...
A phase-field model has been developed to describe the morphology of pores constrained by a dendritic solid network, and are forced to adopt complex non-spherical shapes. The distribution of the solid, liquid and gas phases was calculated with a multiphase ...
Long-term sedimentation of pumped storage reservoirs due to the alternation of turbine and pumping modes is an issue regarding sustainability and reliability of such schemes. Systematic experiments on a cuboidal basin are conducted to study how flow fields ...
This paper presents the modeling, simulation and analysis of the dynamic behavior of a mixed islanded power network of 780 MVA comprising hydro, thermal and wind power plants. The modeling of each power plant is fully described. The model of the variable s ...
We propose a new class of applications for Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSs), called collaborative transportation applications that aim at solving transportation problems such as congestion and parking. Specifically, we define two applications: Sma ...
We consider a three-stage dynamic flexible flow shop scheduling problem in which jobs of multiple types arrive dynamically over time, a quality feedback mechanism is present, and the setup timing and the process defect rate are closely related. At each mac ...
In this work, we pave the route towards the engineering of strong and spectrally sharp Fano resonances in plasmonic nanostructures and derive analytical formulas for their line shape as a function of their electromagnetic response. Contrary to the original ...

Calculation of electromagnetic cross sections from surface integral equation simulations, a popular approach in microwave studies and recently also in optics and plasmonics, requires only a single post-processing step, which can, however, be very sensitive ...
