Zheng, Y. (author), Nijhuis, S. (author), Bracken, G. (author)In the heart of the Pearl River Delta, the city of Guangzhou is fast-growing and prone to flooding. In history, people constructed canals based on natural waterways to deal with water problems. The canal system not only served as an important infrastructure but was also as the backbone of urban life. The city was built around its canals; they...journal article 2022

Harvey-Collard, P. (author), Dijkema, J.J. (author), Zheng, G. (author), Sammak, A. (author), Scappucci, G. (author), Vandersypen, L.M.K. (author)We report the coherent coupling of two electron spins at a distance via virtual microwave photons. Each spin is trapped in a silicon double quantum dot at either end of a superconducting resonator, achieving spin-photon couplings up to around gs/2p=40 MHz. As the two spins are brought into resonance with each other, but detuned from the...journal article 2022

Yin, Hang (author), Zheng, Feifei (author), Duan, Huan-Feng (author), Savić, Dragan (author), Kapelan, Z. (author)Urban flooding is a major issue worldwide, causing huge economic losses and serious threats to public safety. One promising way to mitigate its impacts is to develop a real-time flood risk management system; however, building such a system is often challenging due to the lack of high spatiotemporal rainfall data. While some approaches (i.e.,...journal article 2022

Thakolkaran, P. (author), Joshi, A. (author), Zheng, Y. (author), Flaschel, Moritz (author), De Lorenzis, Laura (author), Kumar, Siddhant (author)We propose a new approach for unsupervised learning of hyperelastic constitutive laws with physics-consistent deep neural networks. In contrast to supervised learning, which assumes the availability of stress–strain pairs, the approach only uses realistically measurable full-field displacement and global reaction force data, thus it lies...journal article 2022
