Zhu, C. (author), Guo, L (author), Tian, B. (author), He, Q (author), Wang, Zhengbing (author)Estuarine morphodynamics undergo significant changes due to declined sediment supply from river, rising sea-level, and human interferences (Syvitski and Saito, 2007; Syvitski et al., 2009). The Yangtze Estuary is such a case whose decadal morphodynamic evolution was broadly examined. It was documented that the subaqueous delta shifted from...abstract 2017

Guo, Baiwei (author), Wang, Y. (author), Kamgarpour, Maryam (author), Ferrari-Trecate, Giancarlo (author)To solve unmodeled optimization problems with hard constraints, this paper proposes a novel zeroth-order approach called Safe Zeroth-order Optimization using Linear Programs (SZO-LP). The SZO-LP method solves a linear program in each iteration to find a descent direction, followed by a step length determination. We prove that, under mild...conference paper 2023

(author)The interplay between disease dynamics on a network and the dynamics of the structure of that network characterizes many real-world systems of contacts. A continuous-time adaptive susceptible-infectious-susceptible (ASIS) model is introduced in order to investigate this interaction, where a susceptible node avoids infections by breaking its...journal article 2013

(author)River-tide dynamics remain poorly understood, in part because conventional harmonic analysis (HA) does not cope effectively with nonstationary signals. To explore nonstationary behavior of river tides and the modulation effects of river discharge, this work analyzes tidal signals in the Yangtze River estuary using both HA in a nonstationary mode...journal article 2015

Zhu, C. (author), Guo, Leicheng (author), van Maren, D.S. (author), Tian, Bo (author), Wang, Xianye (author), He, Qing (author), Wang, Zhengbing (author)The morphology of the Yangtze Estuary has changed substantially at decadal time scales in response to natural processes, local human interference and reduced sediment supply. Due to its high sediment load, the morphodynamic response time of the estuary is short, providing a valuable semi-natural system to evaluate large-scale estuarine...journal article 2019

Chang, J. (author), Guo, Zongyi (author), De Breuker, R. (author), Wang, Xuerui (author)The sensor-based Incremental Nonlinear Dynamic Inversion (INDI) control has shown promising robustness in the aerospace research field. This control framework only requires a partial knowledge of plant (control effectiveness) because of its usage of angular accelerations and actuator output measurements. However, there are still un-negligible...journal article 2022

Tidal inundation depth and frequency are known to affect tidal flat morphodynamics. However, the causes, processes and extent remain uncertain, particularly given the associated changes in sediment availability. In...journal article 2023
