de Jong, M.H.J. (author), Li, J. (author), Gartner, C.M. (author), Norte, R.A. (author), Groeblacher, S. (author)Studying the interplay between multiple coupled mechanical resonators is a promising new direction in the field of optomechanics. Understanding the dynamics of the interaction can lead to rich new effects, such as enhanced coupling and multi-body physics. In particular, multi-resonator optomechanical systems allow for distinct dynamical...journal article 2022

Shao, X. (author), Yao, Weiran (author), Li, Xiaolei (author), Sun, Guanghui (author), Wu, Ligang (author)This letter investigates the direct trajectory optimization of the free-floating space manipulator (FFSM). The main purpose is to plan the joint space trajectories to reduce the spacecraft motion due to the joint rotation during the FFSM performing tasks. To improve the calculation efficiency, the adaptive Radau pseudospectral method (A-RPM)...journal article 2022

Wang, Yihui (author), Zhu, Songwei (author), Li, Shukai (author), Yang, Lixing (author), De Schutter, B.H.K. (author)In practice, the operation of high-speed trains is often affected by adverse weather conditions or equipment failures, which result in delays and even cancellations of train services. In this article, a novel two-layer hierarchical model predictive control (MPC) model is proposed for on-line high-speed railway delay management and train...journal article 2022

Xin, Haohui (author), Li, Jie (author), Veljkovic, M. (author), Liu, Yuqing (author), Sun, Qing (author)Bolted joints in steel structures are generally subject to combined actions. The research on ultimate capacity of bolted joints under combined tension and shear actions, twin shear actions, and combined tension-twin shear actions is relatively limited. The aim of this paper is to calibrate the fracture locus of grade 10.9 bolts using the...journal article 2022

Ren, Jie (author), Zhang, Lihai (author), Zhu, Yingcan (author), Li, Z. (author), San Nicolas, Rackel (author)This study compares the degradation behavior of the alkali-activated slag/fly ash (AASF) and ordinary Portland cement (OPC) mortars exposed to phosphoric acid with different pH values. The experimental results show that AASF mortars exhibit better resistance than OPC mortars against surface damage, although both systems get white deposits on the...journal article 2022

Li, Peng (author), Liu, Di (author), Baldi, S. (author)Adaptive integral sliding mode control (AISMC) is an extension of adaptive sliding mode control which is a way to ensure sliding motion while handling system uncertainties. However, conventional AISMC formulations require to different extent a priori knowledge of the system uncertainty: either the upper bound of the uncertainty or of its time...journal article 2022

Li, T. (author), Erkin, Z. (author), Lagendijk, R.L. (author)With the emerging of e-commerce, package theft is at a high level: It is reported that 1.7 million packages are stolen or lost every day in the U.S. in 2020, which costs $25 million every day for the lost packages and the service. Information leakage during transportation is an important reason for theft since thieves can identify which truck is...journal article 2022

Li, Qiongxiu (author), Heusdens, R. (author), Christensen, M.T. (author)Privacy issues and communication cost are both major concerns in distributed optimization in networks. There is often a trade-off between them because the encryption methods used for privacy-preservation often require expensive communication overhead. To address these issues, we, in this paper, propose a quantization-based approach to achieve...journal article 2022

Li, S. (author), de Wagter, C. (author), de Croon, G.C.H.E. (author)Wireless ranging measurements have been proposed for enabling multiple Micro Air Vehicles (MAVs) to localize with respect to each other. However, the high-dimensional relative states are weakly observable due to the scalar distance measurement. Hence, the MAVs have degraded relative localization and control performance under unobservable...journal article 2022

(author)User authentication remains a challenging issue, despite the existence of a large number of proposed solutions, such as traditional text-based, graphical-based, biometrics-based, Web-based, and hardware-based schemes. For example, some of these schemes are not suitable for deployment in an Internet of Things (IoT) setting, partly due to the...journal article 2022

Zuo, Renwei (author), Li, Yinghui (author), Lv, Maolong (author), Liu, Zongcheng (author), Zhang, Fan (author)This article proposes an output-feedback fixed-time trajectory tracking control methodology for hypersonic flight vehicles subject to asymmetric output constraints. In contrast to the state of the art, the most distinguishing feature of our control design lies in avoiding using conventional recursive design methods (e.g., backstepping...journal article 2022

Li, Bo (author), Liu, Qiuhong (author), Wang, T. (author), He, He (author), Peng, You (author), Feng, Tao (author)Outdoor physical activities can promote public health and they are largely influenced by the built environment in different urban settings. Understanding the association between outdoor physical activities and the built environment is important for promoting a high quality of life. Existing studies typically focus on one type of outdoor activity...journal article 2022
