Jánoska, A. (author), Verheijen, Jelle J. (author), Tang, W. (author), Lee, Queenie (author), Sikkema, Baukje (author), van Gulik, W.M. (author)In large-scale bioreactors, there is often insufficient mixing and as a consequence, cells experience uneven substrate and oxygen levels that influence product formation. In this study, the influence of dissolved oxygen (DO) gradients on the primary and secondary metabolism of a high producing industrial strain of Penicillium chrysogenum was...journal article 2022

(author), Randall, Katherine (author), Ewing, Edward Thomas (author), Tufekci, Zeynep (author), Greenhalgh, Trish (author), Tellier, Raymond (author), Tang, Julian W. (author), Bluyssen, P.M. (author)Abstract The question of whether SARS-CoV-2 is mainly transmitted by droplets or aerosols has been highly controversial. We sought to explain this controversy through a historical analysis of transmission research in other diseases. For most of human history, the dominant paradigm was that many diseases were carried by the air, often over long...journal article 2022

Tang, Z. (author), Brito Zamparette, R.L. (author), Furuta, Yoshikazu (author), Nezuka, Tomohiro (author), Makinwa, K.A.A. (author)This article presents a versatile shunt-based current sensor for battery management applications. It digitizes the current-induced voltage drop across an external shunt resistor with the help of a 2 nd -order delta-sigma ( ΔΣ ) ADC, whose summing node is implemented as a low-noise capacitively coupled amplifier. To compensate for the shunt’s...journal article 2022

Tang, Z. (author), Brito Zamparette, R.L. (author), Furuta, Yoshikazu (author), Nezuka, Tomohiro (author), Makinwa, K.A.A. (author)Accurate current sensing is critical in many industrial applications, such as battery management and motor control. Precise shunt-based current sensors have been reported with gain errors of less than 1% over the industrial temperature range (-40°C to 85°C) [1]–[4]. However, since they are intended for coulomb counting, their bandwidth is...conference paper 2022

Tang, Shi Yuan (author), Oliehoek, F.A. (author), Irissappane, Athirai A. (author), Zhang, Jie (author)Cross-Entropy Method (CEM) is a gradient-free direct policy search method, which has greater stability and is insensitive to hyperparameter tuning. CEM bears similarity to population-based evolutionary methods, but, rather than using a population it uses a distribution over candidate solutions (policies in our case). Usually, a natural...conference paper 2021
