Heavy-duty vehicle (HDV) platooning, facilitated by vehicle-to-vehicle communication, plays a crucial role in transforming logistics and transportation. It reduces fuel consumption and emissions while enhancing road safety, supporting sustainable freight strategies and the integration of autonomous vehicles. This study employs a hybrid approach com...
This paper presents a comprehensive literature review aimed at analyzing recent advancements in research concerning the optimal location of Electric Vehicle Charging Stations (EVCS) over the past year. The rapid proliferation of electric vehicles needs a thorough understanding of the strategic placement of charging infrastructure to support their w...
This paper examines the impact of electric vehicle (EV) charging stations on the capacity of distribution feeders and transformers within the electric grid at California State University Northridge (CSUN). With the increasing adoption of both residential and commercial EVs and the rapid expansion of EV charging infrastructure, it is critical to eva...
Open Relation Extraction (ORE) is a task of extracting semantic relations from a text document. Current ORE systems have significantly improved their efficiency in obtaining Chinese relations, when compared with conventional systems which heavily depend on feature engineering or syntactic parsing. However, the ORE systems do not use robust neural n...
Medical named entity recognition (NER) is an area in which medical named entities are recognized from medical texts, such as diseases, drugs, surgery reports, anatomical parts, examination documents, and so on. Conventional medical NER methods do not make full use of un-labelled medical texts embedded in medical documents. To address this issue, we...
Compressor fault diagnosis requires expert knowledge. Using the sequence labeling technology, this expert knowledge can be automatically extracted from compressor maintenance log sheets. Previous studies indicate that sequence labeling methods often need a substantial amount of annotation data for knowledge extraction, Unfortunately, the annotation...
The fifth-generation mobile communication technology (5G) provides high-bandwidth and low-latency data channels for massive IoT terminals to access the core business network. At the same time, it also brings higher security threats and challenges. Terminal identity authentication is an important security mechanism to ensure the core business networ...
Reverse osmosis (RO) technologies have been widely implemented around the world to address the rising severity of freshwater scarcity. As desalination capacity increases, reducing the energy consumption of RO process per permeate volume (i.e., specific energy consumption) is of particular importance. In this study, numerical models are used to char...
The incredible development of Internet of things technology promotes the integration of application systems, which enable people to enjoy the convenience of multiple application services through a single intelligent device or terminal. In order to implement value exchange and information sharing between different applications, cross-domain access i...
As more attention is focused on bicycles as a mode of transportation, there is a strong need to understand microscopic behaviors of bicyclists within urban traffic systems. To respond to these needs, a new approach to simulate bicyclists' riding behaviors on bike paths has been developed. This approach uses the concept of reactive and perceptive ra...
In this paper, the equivalent model of a local HVDC transmission system is set up based on Real-Time Digital Simulator (RTDS). A realistic DC line fault on the pole 2 of the HVDC project is simulated successfully by use of the RTDS model connected with actual physical control and protection devices. And then, a complete evaluation theory of simulat...
The DC line fault which occurred on the pole 2 of Guizhou-Guangdong HVDC of China South Grid company on January 15th, 2007 is simulated successfully by using the HVDC simulation model of RTDS that is essentially identical with the actual control and protection system. We use the transient wave calculation procedure in LabVIEW to compare the similar...
As a series FACTS device based on Voltage Source Converter (VSC), Static Series Synchronous Compensators (SSSC) can optimize power flow and improve power system stability by controlling the line impedance rapidly. According to the three levels control structure of SSSC proposed in this paper, when SSSC middle level control operates at constant impe...
The "single file" and "side-by-side" travel characteristics of bicyclists and pedestrians should be considered for the determi- nation of stopping sight distances, horizontal sightline offsets, and minimum lengths of vertical curves for bike paths. This paper describes these unique travel behaviors and classifies them into two cases Case I and Case...
In this paper, a novel model of opportunity cost of spinning reserve capacity is proposed based on sequential dispatching. A model of strategic behaviors of generation firms based on conjectural variation is proposed to apply in monopoly spinning reserve capacity markets with incomplete information. According to the conjectural variation model, eac...
Determination of a runway orientation is a critical task in the planning and design of an airport. The direction of the runway controls the layout of the other airport facilities, such as passenger terminals, taxiways/apron configurations, circulation roads, and parking facilities. This paper presents a geographic information systems (GIS)-based sy...
This paper presents a method for the representation and reasoning of spatial knowledge. Spatial knowledge is important to decision making in many transportation applications that involve human judgement and understanding of the spatial nature of the transportation infrastructure. Unfortunately, conventional Knowledge-Based Expert Systems (KBESs) do...
This paper provides a framework for integrating the spatial data manipulation strengths of a geographic information system (GIS) with the interactive problem-solving capabilities of a knowledge-based expert system (KBES) through emulation of the knowledge of human experts. While the integration of a GIS with KBES has practical applications througho...
