Anand, S. (author), Alderliesten, R.C. (author), Castro, Saullo G.P. (author)To design crash structures for disruptive aircraft designs, it is required to have fast and accurate methods that can predict crashworthiness of aircraft structures early in the design phase. Axial crushing is one of the key energy absorbing mechanisms during a crash event. In this study, various analytical models proposed for calculation of...journal article 2024

de Jong, M.N. (author), Campana, Francesca Cala (author), Li, Pengfei (author), Pan, Qiuwei (author), Giordano, G. (author)In 2022, worldwide mpox outbreaks have called attention to mpox virus infection and treatment opportunities using the drugs cidofovir and tecovirimat, which target different stages of in-host viral proliferation, respectively production and shedding. We propose a new model of in-host viral infection dynamics that distinguishes between the two...journal article 2023

Du, Yunlu (author), Huang, Yunkai (author), Guo, Baocheng (author), Peng, Fei (author), Yao, Yu (author), Dong, J. (author)In this article, a new analytical model for predicting the magnetic field of the U-shaped interior permanent magnet motor (IPMM) is proposed. In the polar coordinates, rectangular permanent magnets are equivalent to the combination of consistent fan-shaped subdomains, and after that, the Laplace or Poisson equation of each solution domain can...journal article 2023

Sušnik, Janez (author), Masia, Sara (author), Jewitt, G.P.W. (author), Simpson, Gareth (author)The water-energy-food (WEF) nexus is shown to be a highly interconnected, complex system, operating over multiple time scales, and at spatial scales from household to global. The key WEF nexus foci issues and challenges are known to be extremely diverse and change depending on the local situation and setting, the scale at which the nexus is...book chapter 2022

(author), Yin, Zhigang (author), Paul, Souvik (author), Liyanage, Mohan (author), Pridmore, Jason (author), Ding, Aaron Yi (author), Sharma, Rajesh (author), Nurmi, Petteri (author), Flores, Huber (author)Federated learning (FL) is a promising privacy-preserving solution to build powerful AI models. In many FL scenarios, such as healthcare or smart city monitoring, the user's devices may lack the required capabilities to collect suitable data, which limits their contributions to the global model. We contribute social-aware federated learning...journal article 2022

Stella, F. (author), Obayashi, Nana (author), Della Santina, C. (author), Hughes, Josie (author)The control possibilities for soft robots have long been hindered by the lack of accurate yet computationally treatable dynamic models of soft structures. Polynomial curvature models propose a solution to this quest for continuum slender structures. Nevertheless, the results produced with this class of models have been so far essentially...journal article 2022

Zhang, Q. (author), Pan, W. (author), Reppa, V. (author)This paper presents a novel model-reference reinforcement learning algorithm for the intelligent tracking control of uncertain autonomous surface vehicles with collision avoidance. The proposed control algorithm combines a conventional control method with reinforcement learning to enhance control accuracy and intelligence. In the proposed...journal article 2021

Wu, S. (author), Verschuur, D.J. (author), Blacquière, G. (author)In seismic exploration methods, imperfect spatial sampling at the surface causes a lack of illumination at the target in the subsurface. The hampered image quality at the target area of interest causes uncertainties in reservoir monitoring and production, which can have a substantial economic impact. Especially in the case of a complex...journal article 2021

Aflaki, Ardalan (author), Esfandiari, Masoud (author), Mohammadi, S. (author)Natural ventilation has been used widely in buildings to deliver a healthy and comfortable indoor environment for occupants. It also reduces the consumption of energy in the built environment and dilutes the concentration of carbon dioxide. Various methods and techniques have been used to evaluate and predict indoor airspeed and patterns in...review 2021

Derner, Erik (author), Kubalik, Jiri (author), Babuska, R. (author)Continual model learning for nonlinear dynamic systems, such as autonomous robots, presents several challenges. First, it tends to be computationally expensive as the amount of data collected by the robot quickly grows in time. Second, the model accuracy is impaired when data from repetitive motions prevail in the training set and outweigh...journal article 2021

Barendswaard, S. (author), Pool, D.M. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author)Vehicle control tasks require simultaneous control of multiple degrees-of-freedom. Most multi-axis human-control modeling is limited to the modeling of multiple fully independent single axes. This paper contributes to the understanding of multi-axis control behavior and draws a more realistic and complete picture of dual-axis manual control....journal article 2019

Idema, T. (author), Kraft, Daniela J. (author)Protein inclusions in the membranes of living cells interact via the deformations they impose on that membrane. Such membrane-mediated interactions lead to sorting and self-assembly of the inclusions, as well as to membrane remodelling, crucial for many biological processes. For the past decades, theory, numerical calculations and experiments...review 2019

van der Blij, N.H. (author), Ramirez Elizondo, L.M. (author), Spaan, M.T.J. (author), Bauer, P. (author)Many modelling methods for the analysis of dc distribution grids only consider monopolar configurations and do not allow for mutual couplings to be taken into account. The modelling method presented in this paper aims to deal with both of these issues. A state-space approach was chosen for its flexibility and computational speed. The derived...journal article 2018
