Blanchini, Franco (author), Casagrande, Daniele (author), Giordano, G. (author), Viaro, Umberto (author)This paper investigates the topology-independent stability of homogeneous dynamical networks, composed of interconnected equal systems. Precisely, dynamical systems with identical nominal transfer function F(s) are associated with the nodes of a directed graph, whose arcs account for their dynamic interactions, described by a common nominal...journal article 2018

Frey, D. (author), McIntosh, Alan (author), Portal, Pierre (author)Perturbed Hodge-Dirac operators and their holomorphic functional calculi, as investigated in the papers by Axelsson, Keith and the second author, provided insight into the solution of the Kato square-root problem for elliptic operators in L<sup>2</sup> spaces and allowed for an extension of these estimates to other systems with applications...journal article 2018

van Cranenburgh, S. (author), Bliemer, Michiel C.J. (author)Due to the surge in the amount of data that are being collected, analysts are increasingly faced with very large data sets. Estimation of sophisticated discrete choice models (such as Mixed Logit models) based on these typically large data sets can be computationally burdensome, or even infeasible. Hitherto, analysts tried to overcome these...journal article 2018

Herrera Semenets, V. (author), Pérez-García, Osvaldo Andrés (author), Hernández-León, Raudel (author), van den Berg, Jan (author), Dörr, C. (author)In the last few years, the telecommunications scenario has experienced an increase in the volume of information generated, as well as in the execution of malicious activities. In order to complement Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs), data mining techniques have begun to play a fundamental role in data analysis. On the other hand, the...journal article 2018

(author), Margallo Balbas, E (author), Sarro, Pasqualina M (author)In this paper, we present an electrothermal biaxial MEMS actuator system, which provides x-A nd y-direction scanning for a fully integrated 3-D optical coherence tomography (OCT) scanner. An angular scanning range of 8° (corresponding to a 7-mm linear scanning range in both directions) is achieved, with an average power consumption of 150 mW....journal article 2018

(author)Replication of DNA-encoded information and its conversion into functional proteins are universal properties of life. In an effort toward the construction of a synthetic minimal cell, we implement here the DNA replication machinery of the Φ29 virus in a cell-free gene expression system. Amplification of a linear DNA template by self-encoded,...journal article 2018

Hulstijn, Joris (author), Darusalam, D. (author), Janssen, M.F.W.H.A. (author)There has been a lot of research on the use of open data in the fight against corruption. Although there are some promising examples, it appears that a systematic approach is lacking. What are the design principles for an architecture to open up data and thereby reduce corruption? In this paper we use theory about fraud, and about public...journal article 2018

(author), Yan, Xinlin (author), Liu, Qiunan (author), Xu, Bo (author), Wang, Li min (author)Exploration of advanced anode materials is a highly relevant research topic for next generation lithium-ion batteries. Here, we report severe lattice distorted MoS<sub>2</sub> nanosheets with a flower-like morphology prepared with PEG400 as additive, which acts not only as surfactant but importantly, also as reactant. Notably, in the absence...journal article 2018

Barreiro, Elena M. (author), Hao, Zhimian (author), Adrio, Luis A. (author), van Ommen, J.R. (author), Hellgardt, Klaus (author), Hii, King Kuok (author)Catalyst leaching is a major impediment to the development of commercially-viable processes conducted in a liquid-phase. To date, there is no reliable technique that can accurately identify the extent and dynamics of the leaching process in a quantitative manner. In this work, a tandem flow-reactor system has been developed, which allowed us...journal article 2018

Geyer, A. (author), Quirchmayr, Ronald (author)Motivated by the question whether higher-order nonlinear model equations, which go beyond the Camassa-Holm regime of moderate amplitude waves, could point us to new types of waves profiles, we study the traveling wave solutions of a quasilinear evolution equation which models the propagation of shallow water waves of large amplitude. The aim of...journal article 2018

Petrov, N. (author), le Chevalier, F. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)This paper deals with the problem of coherent radar detection of fast moving targets in a high range resolution mode. In particular, we are focusing on the spiky clutter modeled as a compound Gaussian process with rapidly varying power along range. Additionally, a fast moving target of interest has a few range cells migration within the coherent...journal article 2018

Two-phase vertical downward flow in plate heat exchangers: Flow patterns and condensation mechanismsToa, X. (author), Nuijten, Menno P. (author), Infante Ferreira, C.A. (author)This study presents a literature review of work related to the two-phase flow patterns of vertical downward flow in plate heat exchangers with corrugated chevron plates. An understanding of these flow patterns is crucial for developing accurate models of plate heat exchangers functioning as condensers or absorbers. Flow pattern maps of the...journal article 2018

Smisek, J. (author), Mugge, W. (author), Smeets, Jeroen B J (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Schiele, A. (author)In haptic shared control systems (HSC), a fixed strength of guidance force equates to a fixed level of control authority, which can be insufficient for complex tasks. An adaptable control authority based on operator input can allow the HSC system to better assist the operator under varied conditions. In this paper, we experimentally...journal article 2018

Fang, H. (author), Mecozzi, M.G. (author), Brück, E.H. (author), van der Zwaag, S. (author), van Dijk, N.H. (author)A 3D model has been developed to predict the average ferrite grain size and grain size distribution for an austenite-to-ferrite phase transformation during continuous cooling of an Fe-C-Mn steel. Using a Voronoi construction to represent the austenite grains, the ferrite is assumed to nucleate at the grain corners and to grow as spheres....journal article 2018

Elmustapha, Houda (author), Hoppe, T. (author), Bressers, Hans (author)Climate change and environmental problems are of major concern to governments, organisations, and consumers. This stresses the need for a transition towards clean renewable energy systems. To enable the diffusion of cleaner energy technology it is not enough to just have supportive policies in place. The challenge is to ensure that consumers...journal article 2018
