Tang, Z. (author), Pan, S. (author), Grubor, M. (author), Makinwa, K.A.A. (author)This article presents a sub-1 V bipolar junction transistor (BJT)-based temperature sensor that achieves both high accuracy and high energy efficiency. To avoid the extra headroom required by conventional current sources, the sensor’s diode-connected BJTs are biased by precharging sampling capacitors to the supply voltage and then discharging...journal article 2023

(author), Chang, Mau Chung Frank (author)The exploration of icy body composition in the solar system has often involved spectroscopic measurements of volatiles detected with remote sensing, such measurements portray materials naturally expelled from the surface that enter the exosphere and potentially escape into space. Variations in the ratio of deuterium and hydrogen in these...journal article 2023

Tang, Y. (author), Zhu, H. (author), Potters, Susan (author), Wisse, M. (author), Pan, W. (author)This letter addresses the problem of pushing manipulation with nonholonomic mobile robots. Pushing is a fundamental skill that enables robots to move unwieldy objects that cannot be grasped. We propose a stable pushing method that maintains stiff contact between the robot and the object to avoid consuming repositioning actions. We prove that...journal article 2023

(author)Particle tracers are sometimes used to track sources and sinks of riverine particulate and contaminant transport. A potentially new particle tracer is ~200 nm sized superparamagnetic silica encapsulated DNA (SiDNAFe). The main objective of this research was to understand and quantify the settling and aggregation behaviour of SiDNAFe in river...journal article 2023

Tang, Tie Qiao (author), Nicolas, Alexandre (author), Lee, Seungjae (author), Daamen, W. (author), Song, Ziqi (author)In the study of pedestrian dynamics, the consideration of group behaviours is essential, as group interaction within crowds is a common phenomenon and significantly influences pedestrian behaviours. This special issue highlights the importance of pedestrian group behaviours and examines the subject using a wide range of methods, such as...contribution to periodical 2023

Tang, T. (author)Polarized opinions are everywhere. From opposite attitudes towards Hawaiian pizza to the partisan divide in theUnited States, we have experienced enough opinion polarization in recent years. Sadly, it is usually a sign of follow-up criticism when people start to talk about "opinion polarization". The term, which should neutrally describe a...doctoral thesis 2022

Haringa, C. (author), Tang, W. (author), Noorman, H.J. (author)The compartment model (CM) is a well-known approach for computationally affordable, spatially resolved hydrodynamic modeling of unit operations. Recent implementations use flow profiles based on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations, and several authors included microbial kinetics to simulate gradients in bioreactors. However, these...journal article 2022

(author), Kang, Chongqing (author)Equilibrium analysis has been widely studied as an effective tool to model gaming interactions and predict market results. However, as competition modes are fundamentally changed by the decarbonization and decentralization of power systems, analysis techniques must evolve. This article comprehensively reviews recent developments in modelling...journal article 2022

(author)The conversion of CO2 with high activity and high selectivity to methanol remains challenging because of both the kinetics and thermodynamics difficulties associated with the chemical reactivity of CO2. Herein, we report a new catalyst of Cd/TiO2 enabling 81% methanol selectivity at 15.8% CO2 conversion with the CH4 selectivity below 0.7%. The...journal article 2022

(author)When making directional surface gravity waves in a wave tank or when initialising numerical simulations of the ocean, the wave spectrum is often curtailed suppressing higher frequencies and wavenumbers. We consider the impact of doing this by numerically simulating two seminal experiments, those of Onorato et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 627, 2009,...journal article 2022
