Performance analysis of air source heat pump space heating system with an adaptive control for supply water temperature
( Elsevier Ltd , 2022 , Article)Air source heat pumps (ASHPs) have been widely used for heating in buildings. While in practice, the setting value of its supply water temperature is always far higher than the theoretical value owing to the delayed ... -
Developing condensing-frosting performance maps for a variable speed air source heat pump (ASHP) for frosting suppression
( Elsevier Ltd , 2022 , Article)For a space heating ASHP unit, frosting on its outdoor coil would adversely impact its normal operation, requiring frequent defrosting and resulting in low operating efficiency and poor indoor thermal comfort. It has been ... -
Development of a variable water temperature control method for air source heat pump based on the supply–demand balance
( Elsevier Ltd , 2022 , Article)Air source heat pump (ASHP) is one of renewable energy technologies, and has been widely used for space heating. In practice applications, the setting value of its supply water temperature is long-term fixed, resulting in ... -
Frosting mechanism and behaviors on surfaces with simple geometries: A state-of-the-art literature review
( Elsevier Ltd , 2022 , Article Review)Frosting causes negative impacts in many technical and engineering fields, such as refrigeration, air source heat pump, aircraft, wind power generation, and power grids. To alleviate the negative impacts of frosting, studies ... -
Application of Metastructures for Targeted Low-Frequency Vibration Suppression in Plates

Application of Metastructures for Targeted Low-Frequency Vibration Suppression in Plates
(2022 , Dataset)In this paper, we present an approach that combines finite element analysis and genetic algorithms to find the optimal configuration of local resonators created in the host structure to suppress their vibration in a target ... -
Modelling fatigue uncertainty by means of nonconstant variance neural networks
( Wiley , 2022 , Article)The modelling of fatigue using machine learning (ML) has been gaining traction in the engineering community. Among ML techniques, the use of probabilistic neural networks (PNNs) has recently emerged as a candidate for ... -
From sustainability assessment to sustainability management for policy development: The case for electric vehicles
( Elsevier Ltd , 2020 , Article)In this research, a hybrid life cycle sustainability assessment and multi-objective decision making are jointly applied to highlight how sustainability assessment results can be used for sustainable management and further ... -
A global multiregional life cycle sustainability assessment of national energy production scenarios until 2050
( IEOM Society , 2017 , Conference Paper)The global increasing energy demand have made governments more environmental conscious, yet there are also impacts on society and the environment. The triple-bottom-line sustainability assessment and Autoregressive Integrated ... -
An empirical assessment on the transportation sustainability indicators and their impact on economic productivity
( IEOM Society , 2020 , Conference Paper)Sustainable transportation has been traditionally acknowledged as an accelerating factor in achieving economic productivity. This paper attempts to frame a methodology to study the sustainability of the transportation ... -
A memetic algorithm for the bi-objective quadratic assignment problem
( Elsevier B.V. , 2019 , Conference Paper)Recently, multi-objective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs) have been extensively used to solve multi-objective optimization problems (MOPs) since they have the ability to approximate a set of non-dominated solutions in ... -
A frontier-based managerial approach for relative sustainability performance assessment of the world's airports
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2021 , Article)The sustainability impact of air transportation has become crucial to communities. Airports around the world are forced to be transparent with the society and to declare their sustainability results. As the sustainability ... -
