Various endeavours into semantic web technologies and ontology engineering have been made within the organisation of cultural data, facilitating public access to digital assets. Although models for conceptualising objects have reached a certain level of ma ...
The management of existing civil infrastructure is challenging due to evolving functional requirements, aging and climate change. Civil infrastructure often has hidden reserve capacity because of conservative approaches used in design and during constructi ...
Information collected through sensor measurements has the potential to improve knowledge of complex-system behavior, leading to better decisions related to system management. In this situation, and particularly when using digital twins, the quality of sens ...
Linear electromagnetic motors (LEMs) have been proposed, developed and used to propel high-speed (i.e. speed > 100 m/s) levitating vehicles. However, few real implementations have demonstrated the feasibility of these machines at such speeds. Furthermore, ...
Intelligence involves processing sensory experiences into representations useful for prediction. Understanding sensory experiences and building these contextual representations without prior knowledge of sensor models and environment is a challenging unsup ...
In a geotechnical excavation, back analyses are routinely performed using the measured field responses to derive the material parameter values for the different soil layers present at the site. For the purpose of back analyses, the engineers will usually m ...
With the development of new materials and advanced structural analysis, alongside increasing aesthetic requirements, recent years have witnessed a trend toward longer, taller, and lighter footbridges. Different from vehicular bridges, footbridges carry rel ...
We propose a policy gradient algorithm for robust infinite-horizon Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) with non-rectangular uncertainty sets, thereby addressing an open challenge in the robust MDP literature. Indeed, uncertainty sets that display statistical ...
Problem statement. Cities hold a central role in global efforts towards sustainability, and integrating sustainability concerns into the governance of cities constitutes an increasingly urgent challenge. One avenue holding promise in this respect concerns ...
