Yang, J. (author), Chen, Xiaohong (author), Sun, Yuanxi (author), Feng, Chen (author), Yang, Zheng (author), Zadpoor, A.A. (author), Mirzaali, Mohammad J. (author), Bai, Long (author)The advent of additive manufacturing has facilitated the design and fabrication of hybrid lattice structures with multiple morphologies. These structures combine multiple distinct architectures into a single structure with an exceptional performance that far exceeds that of each constituting architecture. However, combining strut-based...journal article 2023

Roosenbrand, E.J. (author), Sun, Junzi (author), Hoekstra, J.M. (author)As global flight volume rises, the aviation industry is facing increasing climate challenges. One major factor is the impact of contrails, which trap outgoing terrestrial radiation and counteract emission reduction benefits from emission-optimized flight routes. Our study quantifies contrail-forming flights globally and assesses altitude...journal article 2023

Van Schijndel, B. A.Strack (author), Sun, S. (author), de Visser, C.C. (author)This paper presents a novel method for fast and robust detection of actuator failures on quadrotors. The proposed algorithm has very little model dependency. A Kalman estimator estimates a stochastic effectiveness factor for every actuator, using only onboard RPM, gyro and accelerometer measurements. Then, a hypothesis test identifies the...conference paper 2023

Sun, D. (author), Jamshidnejad, A. (author), De Schutter, B.H.K. (author)We propose a novel method to improve the convergence performance of model predictive control (MPC) for setpoint tracking, by introducing sub-references within a multilevel MPC structure. In some cases, MPC is implemented with a short prediction horizon due to limited on-line computation capacity, which could lead to deteriorated dynamic...journal article 2023

(author)This paper presents a research on the chloride penetration behavior of engineered cementitious composites (ECC) under sustained flexural loads. Three load levels, i.e. 30 %, 60 % and 75 % of the ultimate flexural load were used. Chloride diffusion depth and concentration profile were measured 30, 60 and 150 days after the specimen was exposed...journal article 2023
