Guo, Xiaoyang (author), van de Kleut, Dick (author), Zhang, J. (author), Chen, C. (author), Wang, Xuehang (author), Zheng, Tianye (author), Boles, Steven (author)Activated carbon has long been recognized as a promising electrode material for energy storage devices. The extraordinarily high specific area makes it challenging to replace in supercapacitors since electrical double-layer capacitors need such surfaces but also porous networks to enable electrolyte penetration. As a raw material for...journal article 2024

Heusdens, R. (author), Zhang, Guoqiang (author)In this article, we consider the problem of distributed optimisation of a separable convex cost function over a graph, where every edge and node in the graph could carry both linear equality and/or inequality constraints. We show how to modify the primal-dual method of multipliers (PDMM), originally designed for linear equality constraints,...journal article 2024

Zhang, Yong Chang (author), Pohl, Thomas (author), Maucher, F. (author)In this paper we study metastable states in single- and two-component dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates. We show that this system supports a rich variety of states that are remarkably stable despite not being ground states. In a parameter region where striped phases are ground states, we find such metastable states that are energetically...journal article 2024

Cheng, Ji (author), Xue, Bo (author), Jiaxiang, Y. (author), Zhang, Qingfu (author)Multi-objective Stochastic Linear bandit (MOSLB) plays a critical role in the sequential decision-making paradigm, however, most existing methods focus on the Pareto dominance among different objectives without considering any priority. In this paper, we study bandit algorithms under mixed Pareto-lexicographic orders, which can reflect...journal article 2024

Lee, Won Yong (author), Wen, C. (author), Pham, N.H. (author), Khaksaran, Mohammad Hadi (author), Lee, S. (author), Zhang, Shi Li (author)Tracing fast nanopore-translocating analytes requires a high-frequency measurement system that warrants a temporal resolution better than 1 µs. This constraint may practically shift the challenge from increasing the sampling bandwidth to dealing with the rapidly growing noise with frequencies typically above 10 kHz, potentially making it...journal article 2024
