Stecca, M. (author), Tan, Changyu (author), Xu, J. (author), Soeiro, Thiago B. (author), Bauer, P. (author), Palensky, P. (author)In this article, a hybrid Si/Si carbide (SiC) switch (HyS) modulation with minimum SiC MOSFET conduction (mcHyS) is experimentally characterized, so as to derive its conduction and switching performance. These are later used to derive a silicon (Si) area analytical model for the HyS configuration. The chip area model is used to benchmark the...journal article 2022

Ao, Yibin (author), Tan, Ling (author), Feng, Qiqi (author), Tan, Liyao (author), Li, Hongfu (author), Wang, Yan (author), Wang, T. (author), Chen, Yunfeng (author)The global climate change has resulted in huge flood damages, which seriously hinders the sustainable development of rural economy and society and causes famers’ livelihood problems. In flood-prone areas, it is imperative to actively study short and long-term strategies and solve farmers’ livelihood problems accordingly. Following the...journal article 2022

Ao, Yibin (author), Tan, Liyao (author), Zhong, Jinglin (author), Zhang, Hongying (author), Wang, Yan (author), Wang, T. (author)Earthquake is one of the most serious natural disasters. Taking scientific and reasonable earthquake preparedness measures can effectively reduce casualties and economic losses caused by earthquakes. It is important to understand how residents choose such earthquake preparedness measures to guide them accordingly. However, the current research...journal article 2022

Tan, C. (author), Zhou, Quan (author), Liu, X. (author), Zhang, Kouchi (author), Ye, H. (author), Wu, Qibao (author)Combining the first principles calculations and the non-equilibrium Green’s function formalisms, we decipher the structural, electronic, and transport properties of boron phosphide (BP) with hydrogenation. Hydrogenated BP monolayer is an indirect semiconductor with a wide-bandgap of 3.76 eV that is favorable in power devices. We find that the...journal article 2022

(author)High electric-field stress is an effective solution to the recovery of irradiated devices. In this paper, the dependence of the recovery level on the magnitude of gate voltage and duration is investigated. Compared with the scheme of high gate-bias voltage with a short stress time, the transfer characteristics are significantly recovered by...journal article 2022

de Gijsel, Stefan L. (author), Vijn, A.R.P.J. (author), Tan, Reinier G. (author)This paper proposes an algorithm to localize a magnetic dipole using a limited number of noisy measurements from magnetic field sensors. The algorithm is based on the theory of compressed sensing, and exploits the sparseness of the magnetic dipole in space. Beforehand, a basis consisting of magnetic dipole fields belonging to individual...journal article 2022

Tan, J. (author), Wang, X. (author), Polinder, H. (author), Jarquin Laguna, A. (author), Miedema, S.A. (author)A crucial part of wave energy converters (WECs) is the power take-off (PTO) mechanism, and PTO sizing has been shown to have a considerable impact on the levelized cost of energy (LCOE). However, as a dominating type of PTO system in WECs, previous research pertinent to PTO sizing did not take modeling and optimization of the linear permanent...journal article 2022

Kräussl, Zsofia (author), Baida, Ziv (author), Post, Suzanne (author), Rukanova, B.D. (author), Tan, Y. (author)Circular Economy (CE) and sustainability are getting high on the political agenda of governments on the global level. Businesses and supply chains are at the heart of that transition, and need to make big steps in the coming years for making the transition from a linear model of make-use-dispose towards a circular model. For this transition,...conference paper 2022

Tan, D. (author), Rocco, Roberto (author)Moral knowledge, and its spatial articulation, are being ignored in the rapid urban growth that results from globalisation. The need to learn from tradition and integrate urban heritage values into the wider framework of sustainable development and citizen engagement is urgently recommended by UNESCO. This paper explores the concept of moral...conference paper 2022
