Abstract: Clustering analysis of sequential data is of great interest and importance in many science and engineering areas thanks to the explosive growth of time-series data. Effective methods, especially for sequence clustering, ...

Abstract: It is challenging to set a precise threshold in fault detection and isolation, which helps in reducing false alarms and missed detection rates. In this paper, an adaptive threshold approach is developed for aero-engine ...

Abstract: Numerical methods such as finite element have been flourishing in the past decades for modeling solid mechanics problems via solving governing partial differential equations (PDEs). A salient aspect that distinguishes these ...

Abstract: Accurate prediction/forecasting of the future response of civil infrastructure plays an essential role in health monitoring and safety assessment. However, the complex latent dynamics within the field sensing measurements ...

Abstract: Closed-form model expression is commonly required for parametric data assimilation (e.g., model updating, damage quantification, and so on). However, epistemic bias due to fixing the model class is a challenging issue ...

Abstract: Machine learning–based methods, especially deep learning methods, have achieved great success in seismic response modeling due to their exceptional performance in capturing nonlinear features. However, imbalanced features ...

Abstract: Production wastewater of pymetrozine leads to producing a lot of highly concentrated saline organic wastewater so that the related environmental aspects must be studied. In this study, a response surface methodology (RSM) ...

Abstract: Using experimental (particle-image velocimetry and force measurement) and numerical tools [steady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations with the shear stress transport (SST) k-ω turbulence model], the overtaking ...

Abstract: In wind engineering, to accurately estimate the nonlinear dynamic response of structures while considering uncertainties of hurricanes, a suite of wind records representing the hurricane hazards of a given location is of ...

Abstract: CO2 is a promising refrigerant substitute, and falling film evaporator is widely used in highcapacity heat pump systems. In this article, a CO2 heat pump experimental device is built. According to experimental parameters, ...
