Feng, Zhen (author), Liu, Daoyin (author), Zhang, Wangle (author), Feng, Hao (author), van Ommen, J.R. (author)Fluidization of nanoparticle agglomerates is a promising technique to process nanoparticles. However, possible elutriation of small agglomerates may cause significant loss of bed material. To obtain the elutriation behavior under stable operation, in this study the elutriation fraction of silica nanoparticle agglomerates is measured in a...journal article 2022

Zhang, F. (author), Yang, Y. (author), Fennis, Sonja A.A.M. (author), Hendriks, M.A.N. (author)Acoustic emission (AE) signal parameters can be used to classify the source type in concrete structures. However, signal parameters are influenced by the wave propagation from the source to the receiver, leading to wrong source classification results, especially for monitoring large concrete structures. This paper experimentally evaluates the...journal article 2022

Zhang, J. (author), Aragon, A.M. (author)Stress analysis is an all-pervasive practice in engineering design. With displacement-based finite element analysis, directly-calculated stress fields are obtained in a post-processing step by computing the gradient of the displacement field—therefore less accurate. In enriched finite element analysis (EFEA), which provides unprecedented...journal article 2022

Zhang, Xinglong (author), Pan, W. (author), Scattolini, Riccardo (author), Yu, Shuyou (author), Xu, Xin (author)Koopman operators are of infinite dimension and capture the characteristics of nonlinear dynamics in a lifted global linear manner. The finite data-driven approximation of Koopman operators results in a class of linear predictors, useful for formulating linear model predictive control (MPC) of nonlinear dynamical systems with reduced...journal article 2022

Ma, Xinwei (author), Zhang, Shuai (author), Jin, Yuchuan (author), Zhu, Minqing (author), Yuan, Y. (author)Metro-bikeshare integration, an important way of improving the efficiency of public transportation, has grown rapidly during the last decades in many countries. However, most previous analysis of metro-bikeshare transfer trips were based on limited sample size and the number of recognized metro-bikeshare trips were not sufficient. The primary...journal article 2022

Baldi, S. (author), Zhang, Z. (author), Liu, Di (author)We propose a new reinforcement learning method in the framework of Recursive Least Squares-Temporal Difference (RLS-TD). Instead of using the standard mechanism of eligibility traces (resulting in RLS-TD((Formula presented.))), we propose to use the forgetting factor commonly used in gradient-based or least-square estimation, and we show that...journal article 2022

Wu, Jiansong (author), Zhang, Linlin (author), Bai, Yiping (author), Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author)In recent years, frequent large-scale power grid accidents have caused serious economic losses and bad social impact, which has drawn great attention from power grid enterprises. As one of the key elements of production, safety investment plays an important role in improving the safety level and reducing accident loss. In this paper, System...journal article 2022
