Liu, Zhigang (author), Wang, H. (author), Dollevoet, R.P.B.J. (author), Yang, S. (author), Nunez, Alfredo (author), Zhang, J. (author)This paper explores the use of pantograph-catenary contact force (PCCF) for monitoring of the current collection quality and detection of anomalies in the interaction between pantograph and catenary. The concept of catenary structure wavelength (CSW) is proposed as the dominant component of PCCF. It describes the signal components caused by the...journal article 2016

Kybartas, B.A. (author), Bidarra, Rafael (author)Computers are often used as tools to design, implement and even visualize a variety of narrative forms. Many researchers and artists are now further attempting to engage the computer actively throughout the development of the narrative itself. Any form of computational narrative authoring is at some level always mixed-initiative, meaning that...journal article 2017

Herdeiro Teixeira, A.M. (author), Araujo, Jose (author), Sandberg, Henrik (author), Johansson, Karl H. (author)In this paper, we address the problem of distributed reconfiguration of networked control systems upon the removal of misbehaving sensors and actuators. In particular, we consider systems with redundant sensors and actuators cooperating to recover from faults. Reconfiguration is performed while minimizing a steady-state estimation error...journal article 2017

Wan, Y. (author), Keviczky, T. (author)This paper proposes a real-time fault-tolerant estimation approach for combined sensor fault diagnosis and air data reconstruction. Due to simultaneous influence of winds and latent faults on monitored sensors, it is challenging to address the tradeoff between robustness to wind disturbances and sensitivity to sensor faults. As opposed to...journal article 2018

van der Blij, N.H. (author), Ramirez Elizondo, L.M. (author), Spaan, M.T.J. (author), Bauer, P. (author)Many modelling methods for the analysis of dc distribution grids only consider monopolar configurations and do not allow for mutual couplings to be taken into account. The modelling method presented in this paper aims to deal with both of these issues. A state-space approach was chosen for its flexibility and computational speed. The derived...journal article 2018

Han, Y. (author), Hegyi, A. (author), Yuan, Y. (author), Roncoli, Claudio (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)This paper extends an existing linear quadratic model predictive control (LQMPC) approach to multi-destination traffic networks, where the correct origin-destination (OD) relations are preserved. In the literature, the LQMPC approach has been presented for efficient routing and intersection signal control. The optimization problem in the...journal article 2018

Lin, Q. (author), Zhang, Yihuan (author), Verwer, S.E. (author), Wang, Jun (author)This paper proposes a novel hybrid model for learning discrete and continuous dynamics of car-following behaviors. Multiple modes representing driving patterns are identified by partitioning the model into groups of states. The model is visualizable and interpretable for car-following behavior recognition, traffic simulation, and human-like...journal article 2019

Anand, C. (author), Delrue, Steven (author), Jeong, Hyunjo (author), Shroff, Sonell (author), Groves, R.M. (author), Benedictus, R. (author)Phased array ultrasonic testing is widely used to test structures for flaws due to its ability to produce steered and focused beams. The inherent anisotropic nature of some materials, however, leads to skewing and distortion of the phased array beam and consequently measurement errors. To overcome this, a quantitative model of phased array...journal article 2020

Chen, J. (author), Weihs, D. (author), Vermolen, F.J. (author)Oncolytic virotherapy is known as a new treatment to employ less virulent viruses to specifically target and damage cancer cells. This work presents a cellular automata model of oncolytic virotherapy with an application to pancreatic cancer. The fundamental biomedical processes (like cell proliferation, mutation, apoptosis) are modeled by the...journal article 2020

Spagnol, S. (author), Miccini, Riccardo (author), Onofrei, Marius George (author), Unnthorsson, Runar (author), Serafin, Stefania (author)While previous research on spatial sound perception investigated the physical mechanisms producing the most relevant elevation cues, how spectral notches are generated and related to the individual morphology of the human pinna is still a topic of debate. Correctly modeling these important elevation cues, and in particular the lowest...journal article 2021

Wu, S. (author), Verschuur, D.J. (author), Blacquière, G. (author)In seismic exploration methods, imperfect spatial sampling at the surface causes a lack of illumination at the target in the subsurface. The hampered image quality at the target area of interest causes uncertainties in reservoir monitoring and production, which can have a substantial economic impact. Especially in the case of a complex...journal article 2021

Derner, Erik (author), Kubalik, Jiri (author), Babuska, R. (author)Continual model learning for nonlinear dynamic systems, such as autonomous robots, presents several challenges. First, it tends to be computationally expensive as the amount of data collected by the robot quickly grows in time. Second, the model accuracy is impaired when data from repetitive motions prevail in the training set and outweigh...journal article 2021
