Alcañiz Moya, A. (author), Nikam, Maitheli M. (author), Snow, Yitzi (author), Isabella, O. (author), Ziar, H. (author)Monitoring residential scale photovoltaic (PV) systems is important for maximizing the energy yield and detecting malfunctions. Analytical-based approaches are not reliable in these systems because of the lack of on-site measurements and detailed PV system specifications. In this paper, a collaborative approach is proposed which does not...journal article 2022

Wu, S. (author)Seismic data acquisition is a trade-off between cost and data quality subject to operational constraints. Due to budget limitations, 3D seismic acquisition usually does not have a dense spatial sampling in all dimensions. This causes artefacts in the processed images, velocity models, or other physical properties. However, we rely on, for...doctoral thesis 2020

Fan, J. (author), Li, Yutong (author), Fryc, Irena (author), Qian, C. (author), Fan, X. (author), Zhang, Kouchi (author)The full-spectrum white light-emitting diode (LED) emits light with a broad wavelength range by mixing all lights from multiple LED chips and phosphors. Thus, it has great potentials to be used in healthy lighting, high resolution displays, plant lighting with higher color rendering index close to sunlight and higher color fidelity index. The...journal article 2020

Olieman, C. (author), Bouter, P.A. (author), Bosman, P.A.N. (author)The recently introduced real-valued gene-pool optimal mixing evolutionary algorthm (RV-GOMEA) has been shown to be among the state of the art for solving gray-box optimization problems where partial evaluations can be leveraged. A core strength is its ability to effectively exploit the linkage structure of a problem, which often is unknown a...journal article 2020

Ewald, Vincentius (author), Groves, R.M. (author), Benedictus, R. (author)The concept of structural health monitoring has been introduced to ensure structural integrity during the design lifetime of a structure. The main objectives of structural health monitoring are to detect, locate, quantify, and predict any damage that occurs during this lifetime of the structure so that effective and efficient maintenance and...journal article 2020

Sharifi Noorian, S. (author), Psyllidis, A. (author), Bozzon, A. (author)Location models have traditionally played an important role in suggesting sites for the placement of facilities, so that efficient service delivery is ensured. A common formulation of several location models is associated with the p-median problem, which aims to minimize the travel distance between support facilities and demand in a region....conference paper 2018

Fernandez Mora, Alvaro (author), Heiligers, M.J. (author), Heaton, Andrew F. (author)This paper presents the design of solar-sail transfer trajectories to solar-sail displaced libration point orbits in the Earth- Moon system. The existence of families of solar-sail displaced libration point orbits in the Earth-Moon system has recently been demonstrated. These families originate from complementing the dynamics of the classical...conference paper 2018

Bittermann, M.S. (author), Ciftcioglu, O. (author)Studies on computer-based visual perception and aesthetical judgment for architectural design are presented. In the model, both color and the geometric aspects of human vision are jointly taken into account, quantifying the perception of an individual object, as well as a scene consisting of several objects. This is accomplished by fuzzy neural...conference paper 2016
