Control theory-based data assimilation for open channel hydraulic models: tuning PID controllers using multi-objective optimization
(IWA Publishing, 2022)
Reliable water resources management requires decision support tools to successfully forecast hydraulic data (stage and flow hydrographs). Even though data-driven methods are nowadays trendy to apply, they still fail to ...
Quantifying Multi-Parameter Dynamic Resilience for Complex Reservoir Systems Using Failure Simulations: Case Study of the Pirot Reservoir System
(MDPI, 2021)
The objective of this research is to introduce a novel framework to quantify the risk of
the reservoir system outside the design envelope, taking into account the risks related to floodprotection and hydro-energy generation ...
Early Highway Construction Cost Estimation: Selection of Key Cost Drivers
(MDPI, 2023)
Cost estimates in the early stages of project development are essential for making the right deci-sions, but they are a huge challenge and risk for owners and potential contractors due to limited information about the ...
Parametric Study of Additional Temperature Stresses in Continuously Welded Rails on Steel Truss Railway Bridges
(MDPI (Basel, Switzerland), 2023)
Additional temperature stresses in continuously welded rails (CWRs) are caused by track/bridge interaction (TBI) due to thermal actions. Exceeding permissible stresses in CWRs on the bridge can lead to track buckling or ...
Estimation of Changes in Sediment Transport along the Free-Flowing Middle Danube River Reach
(MDPI, 2023)
The subject of this study is an approximately 300 km long Middle Danube River reach that
spans from river kilometer (rkm) 1581 in Hungary to (rkm) 1255 in Serbia. The observed drying of
floodplains in Hungary some thirty ...
Evaluation of Green and Grey Flood Mitigation Measures in Rural Watersheds
(MDPI, 2020)
Floods cause considerable damages worldwide and mitigation of their adverse effects through effective protection measures is needed. Along with the commonly applied “grey” infrastructure, “green” measures that can offer ...
Performance Evaluation of Asphalt Mixtures Containing Different Proportions of Alternative Materials
(MDPI, 2023)
With the increasing scarcity and cost of virgin materials for asphalt mixtures, the exploration of alternative components has intensified. Reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP), crumb rubber (CR), steel slag (SS), and waste ...
Service Life Design of Concrete Structures Made of High-Volume Limestone Powder Concrete—Case of the Carbonation-Induced Corrosion
(MDPI, Basel, Switzerland, 2023)
One of the paths to CO2 emissions reduction in the concrete industry is to use low-clinker cements, providing at the same time the performance of concrete that is adequate for application in concrete structures. This paper ...
On the Wind Energy Resource above High-Rise Buildings
(MDPI, 2020)
One of the main challenges of urban wind energy harvesting is the understanding of the flow characteristics where urban wind turbines are to be installed. Among viable locations within the urban environment, high-rise ...
Augmented state estimation of urban settings using on-the-fly sequential Data Assimilation
(Elsevier, 2023)
A data-driven investigation of the flow around a high-rise building is per- formed by combining heterogeneous experimental samples and numerical models based on the Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) equations. The ...
