DOI: 10.1080/23744731.2017.1366184
Abstract: Several network configurations are possible when designing the interior portion of centralized ground-coupled heat pump systems. In this study, three different configurations are examined: Two-pipe networks with either a direct-return or a reverse-return and one-pipe… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/access.2021.3115981
Abstract: At the present time, water and sewer pipe networks are predominantly inspected manually. In the near future, smart cities will perform intelligent autonomous monitoring of buried pipe networks, using teams of small robots. These robots,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/lra.2023.3268013
Abstract: This work proposes a novel visual Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping (vSLAM) approach for robots in sewer pipe networks. One problem of vSLAM in pipes is that the scale drifts and accuracy degrades. We propose the… read more here.
