A critical study of the rich religious tradition surrounding Guan Yu 關羽
(Guandi 關帝 / Guangong 關公 / Lord Guan) was long overdue. Bared ter Haar’s recent book rises up to the task with commendable thoroughness, a tour de force of...

System Dynamics Modeling Of Socioeconomic Development Mode Associated With Water Usage In Baiyangdian Lake, Northern China
With continual increase of environmental pressure from human activities, it has become necessary to study the process of socioeconomic water usage influencing the water quality. Based on the system dynamic model developed before...
Digital and automatic design of free-form single-layer grid structures
Grid shells have been widely used in various long-span public buildings, and many of them are defined over free-form surfaces with complex boundaries. This emphasizes the importance of general and digitalised grid generation...

Asset Liquidity and Indivisibility
We study asset liquidity in a search-theoretic framework where divisible assets can facilitate exchange for an indivisible consumption good. The distinctive characteristics of our theory are that the asset dividend can be either...
An Integrated System Planning and Process Control System for Marine Wastewater Management
An ideal combination of both system planning and process control can greatly reduce system cost and maximize economic and environmental benefits associated with marine oily wastewater treatment. If appropriate process control is...
Multi-body dynamic analysis of float-over installations
The paper investigates the interaction effects due to diffraction by a large volume substructure and an installation barge, during the operation of setting the deck onto the substructure. Linear theory is adopted. The barge...
Circulation of reassortant influenza A(H7N9) viruses in poultry and humans, Guangdong Province, China, 2013.

Responses of interconnected floating bodies
This article describes an investigation of the wave induced responses of constrained multiple bodies. The hydrodynamic analysis is based on linear diffraction theory, and the constraints in the connections between the bodies are...

An Agent-based Simulation-optimization Coupling Approach for Device Allocation and Operation Control in Response to Offshore Oil Spills
The efficiency of offshore oil spill response not only relies on an efficaciously global decision/planning in devices combination and allocation, but also depends on the timely control for response devices (e.g., skimmers and...
Relightable Detailed Human Reconstruction from Sparse Flashlight Images
We present a lightweight system for reconstructing human geometry and appearance from sparse flashlight images. Our system produces detailed geometry including garment wrinkles and surface reflectance, which are exportable...
Removing irregular frequencies by a partial discontinuous higher order boundary element method
The phenomenon of irregular frequencies is a puzzle in the course of calculating the interaction of waves and structures by the boundary element method. To remove the irregular frequencies, the modified integral domain method is...
Wave-assisted propulsion
A submerged hydrofoil interacting with incoming waves produces combined heaving and pitching motion, facilitating the conversion of wave energy into thrust. When the foil is attached to the ship hull, the generated “green” power...

Equilibrium using credit or money with indivisible goods
This note studies the trade of indivisible goods using credit or money in a frictional market. We show how indivisibility matters for monetary equilibrium under different assumptions about price determination. Bargaining...
