This book delves into the dynamic issues of railway vehicles and track/bridge structures. This area has been a focus of railway engineering since the 1990s, driven by the speed-increasing of existing railway and the development of high-speed railway research in China. The book critically examines the dynamical interactions within the railway vehicle-track-bridge system subjected to track alignment, transcending the limitations of traditional quasi-static methods and offering a novel perspe...

This book explores recent advances in uncertainty quantification for hyperbolic, kinetic, and related problems. The contributions address a range of different aspects, including: polynomial chaos expansions, perturbation methods, multi-level Monte Carlo methods, importance sampling, and moment methods. The interest in these topics is rapidly growing, as their applications have now expanded to many areas in engineering, physics, biology and the social sciences. Accordingly, the book provide...

This book focuses on the intelligent control design for both the induction motor (IM) and the permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). Compared with traditional control schemes, such as the field-oriented control (FOC) and the direct torque control (DTC), the intelligent controllers designed in this book could overcome the influence of parameter uncertainty and load torque disturbance. This book is a research monograph, which provides valuable reference material for researchers who wish ...

This book tackles important problems of anomaly detection and health status analysis in complex core router systems, integral to today’s Internet Protocol (IP) networks. The techniques described provide the first comprehensive set of data-driven resiliency solutions for core router systems. The authors present an anomaly detector for core router systems using correlation-based time series analysis, which monitors a set of features of a complex core router system. They also describe the des...

This groundbreaking book offers a fresh perspective on classical Chinese literature. Using literary sociology, it demonstrates how social, cultural, and political forces shaped the poetry and prose of the time, and how writers responded to it.The author employs the compelling metaphor of a “literary ferry” to carry intellectuals, their creative works, and literary practices across historical waters. Through this conceptual framework, the book sheds light on the interplay between li...
