Wong, L.Y.J. (author), Baars, Martine (author), He, Min (author), de Koning, Björn (author), Paas, Fred (author)Online learning environments demand learners to self-regulate their learning but many learners are poor at self-regulated learning (SRL). In this paper, two studies were conducted to examine the effect of two SRL supports, i.e., guiding goal setting and planning using an approach known as mental contrasting and implementation intentions (MCII...journal article 2021

Du, Zhe (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author), Reppa, V. (author)This paper proposes a multi-agent control scheme for multiple physically interconnected tugboats performing a ship towing process. These tugs are coordinated by two control layers. In the higher layer, the supervisory controller outputs the desired towing forces and reference trajectories for the tugs. This information is used by a tug's...journal article 2021

Viho, Eva M.G. (author), Buurstede, Jacobus C. (author), Berkhout, Jari B. (author), Mahfouz, A.M.E.T.A. (author), Meijer, Onno C. (author)Glucocorticoid stress hormones are powerful modulators of brain function and can affect mood and cognitive processes. The hippocampus is a prominent glucocorticoid target and expresses both the glucocorticoid receptor (GR: Nr3c1) and the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR: Nr3c2). These nuclear steroid receptors act as ligand-dependent...journal article 2021

Dobbe, R.I.J. (author), Krendl Gilbert, Thomas (author), Mintz, Yonatan (author)As AI systems are integrated into high stakes social domains, researchers now examine how to design and operate them in a safe and ethical manner. However, the criteria for identifying and diagnosing safety risks in complex social contexts remain unclear and contested. In this paper, we examine the vagueness in debates about the safety and...journal article 2021

Goyal, N. (author), Howlett, Michael (author), Taeihagh, Araz (author)Why and how the regulation of emerging technologies occurs is not clear in the literature. In this study, we adapt the multiple streams framework – often used for explaining agenda-setting and policy adoption – to examine the phenomenon. We hypothesize how technological change affects policy-making and identify conditions under which the...journal article 2021

Colucci, E. (author), Kokla, M. (author), Noardo, F. (author)Because of the need for new sustainable future alternatives, the re-inhabitation of rural areas, hinterlands, small historical urban centres and villages has become a unique real opportunity. Therefore, it is necessary to define and adopt new sustainable urban planning and building permits to follow this path. These processes involve both...journal article 2021

Hu, R. (author), Ferrari, Riccardo M.G. (author), Chen, Z. (author), Cheng, Yuqiang (author), Zhu, Xiaobin (author), Cui, Xing (author), Wu, Jianjun (author)This paper proposes a controller design for the electric pump of a deep-throttling rocket engine. The nonlinearity of the system is taken into consideration by analyzing the gap metric. Then, proportional-integral-derivative controller and gain-scheduling linear quadratic regulator are designed. Analyzing the amplitude- and phase-frequency...journal article 2021

Jivet, I. (author), Wong, L.Y.J. (author), Scheffel, Maren (author), Valle Torre, M. (author), Specht, M.M. (author), Drachsler, Hendrik (author)Learning analytics dashboards (LADs) are designed as feedback tools for learners, but until recently, learners rarely have had a say in how LADs are designed and what information they receive through LADs. To overcome this shortcoming, we have developed a customisable LAD for Coursera MOOCs on which learners can set goals and choose...conference paper 2021

Ubacht, J. (author)Many of today’s essential services depend on infrastructure-based systems such as the energy, the telecommunications and the public transport system. These systems consist of interdependent subsystems that coevolve over time. The governance of these systems is performed by many different types of public and private actors. In addition these...doctoral thesis 2020

Scharpff, J.C.D. (author)This thesis explores the potential of self-regulation in collective decision making to align interests and optimise joint performance. Demonstrated in the domain of road maintenance planning, this research contributes novel incentive mechanisms and algorithmic techniques to incite self-regulation and coordinate agent interactions, paired with a...doctoral thesis 2020

Büke, F. (author)Bacteria have been an integral part of human life since the ancient times either as cooperative tenants living in and around us or as constant threats to our health and wellbeing. Since prehistoric times we unknowingly used them as tools of fermentation and fought against them with haphazardly discovered natural remedies. Today, after more than...doctoral thesis 2020

Khastieva, D. (author)Environmental and political factors determine long-term development for renewable generation around the world. The rapid growth of renewable generation requires timely changes in power systems operation planning, investments in additional flexible assets and transmission capacity. The development trends of restructured power systems suggest that...doctoral thesis 2020

The inherent characteristics of the SGs are currently used for...review 2020

Peyghami, Saeed (author), Zarei, Seyed Fariborz (author), Ghasemi, Mohammad Amin (author), Palensky, P. (author), Blaabjerg, Frede (author)Microgrids (MGs) are becoming active segments of future power systems. Frequency regulation inislanded MGs is of high importance to guarantee stable and reliable operation under different loading conditions. This paper proposes a decentralized frequency regulation of AC MGs, which relies on the local information. Comparing to the conventional...conference paper 2020

Wagner, Ben (author)Between public debates about ‘hacking’ elections, so-called ‘fake news’ and online disinformation campaigns, it has become hard to imagine what free and fair elections in a digital environment could look like. This challenge is particularly pronounced for election observers who monitor free and fair elections. How should election observers...journal article 2020

Størkersen, Kristine (author), Thorvaldsen, Trine (author), Kongsvik, Trond (author), Dekker, S.W.A. (author)Over the past decades, government safety management regulation has been driven by deregulation, simplification and organization-level regimes of inspection. So-called functional rule-making requires organizations to implement safety management systems appropriate for their operations. The paradox that seems to have arisen is that...journal article 2020
