FANG, SONGLEI (author)A complex network consists of the underlying topology, defined by a graph and the dynamical processes taking place on a network, defined by a set of governing equations. In this thesis, we deploy the discrete-time linear state-space (DLSS) model to identify the dynamical processes taking place on a complex network. Unlike the black-box...master thesis 2022

Soliman, Philip (author)This thesis contains the development of continuous Kepler orbit- and a discrete numerical integration-based collision detection algorithms in a system of LEO satellites, which in combination with collision algorithm form a simplified space debris evolution model. This model is then used to study the Kessler syndrome. The continuous and discrete...bachelor thesis 2022

Mae, Masahiro (author), Van Haren, Max (author), Ohnishi, Wataru (author), Oomen, T.A.E. (author), Fujimoto, Hiroshi (author)Sampled-data control requires both on-sample and intersample performance in high-precision mechatronic systems. The aim is to design a discrete-time linearly parameterized feedforward controller to improve both on-sample and intersample performance in a multi-modal motion system. The continuous-time performance is considered as state...journal article 2022

Veldhuis, Erik (author)This research proposes a new differentiator for estimating higher order derivatives of an input signal. The main reason why higher order derivatives are necessary is that Active Inference makes use of generalized coordinates. This means that it keeps internally track of higher order temporal derivatives of states, inputs and measurements. The...master thesis 2021

Sehgal, R.K. (author)Residue amplification plays a key role in determining the energy efficiency, area and performance of high-speed pipelined ADCs. At its core, a residue amplifier simply consists of four transistors that transfer a differential input voltage to a capacitive load with the desired gain. However, in order to ensure gain accuracy over PVT, the core...doctoral thesis 2021

Yan, Yuheng (author)The computational modeling of crack propagation is important in aerospace and automotive industries because cracks play a significant role in structural failure. In comparison with the quasi-static case, inertial effects are significant in dynamic crack propagation. The classical numerical tool for modeling dynamic crack propagation is the...master thesis 2021

Baayen, Jorn H. (author), Postek, K.S. (author)Non-convex discrete-time optimal control problems in, e.g., water or power systems, typically involve a large number of variables related through nonlinear equality constraints. The ideal goal is to find a globally optimal solution, and numerical experience indicates that algorithms aiming for Karush–Kuhn–Tucker points often find solutions...journal article 2021

Eland, E.N. (author), Karmakar, S. (author), Gonen, B. (author), van Veldhoven, Robert (author), Makinwa, K.A.A. (author)This article describes a discrete-time zoom analog-to-digital converter (ADC) intended for audio applications. It uses a coarse 5-bit SAR ADC in tandem with a fine third-order delta-sigma modulator (ΔΣM) to efficiently obtain a high dynamic range. To minimize its over-sampling ratio (OSR) and, thus, its digital power consumption, the...journal article 2021

Lekkerkerk, Kirsten (author)A mathematical model has been developed to determine the timing of the tasks that can be performed on a variety of units to produce a variety of end states and to monitor the flow of the material through the network. The mathematical model is based on the work of Kondili et al. (1993) and is extended with the ability to monitor and restrict the...master thesis 2020

Enschedé, Sabine (author)This paper is a research in positive controllability and stabilizability for discrete-time linear systems. Several conditions are given and explained for both single input as multiple input systems. Also the connection between controllability and reachability will be mentioned. Furthermore, a method for multiple input positive controllability is...bachelor thesis 2020

Dai, C. (author), Lefebvre, Sylvain (author), Yu, Kai Ming (author), Geraedts, Jo M.P. (author), Wang, C.C. (author)We present a method for effectively planning the motion trajectory of robots in manufacturing tasks, the tool paths of which are usually complex and have a large number of discrete time constraints as waypoints. Kinematic redundancy also exists in these robotic systems. The jerk of motion is optimized in our trajectory planning method at the...journal article 2020

Sharma, Nalin Kumar (author), Roy, S. (author), Janardhanan, S. (author)The adaptive sliding mode control technique relaxes the assumption of known bound of the disturbance in discrete-time systems. However, the existing technique of gain adaptation in discrete-time sliding mode control has issues of gain overestimation and underestimation. Therefore, this paper proposes a technique to adapt the switching gain...journal article 2019

Blanchini, Franco (author), Casagrande, Daniele (author), Giordano, G. (author), Miani, Stefano (author), Olaru, Sorin (author), Reppa, V. (author)To detect faults in a system we can adopt an observer, designed for the healthy system, and monitor the discrepancy between actual and expected behaviour of the residual (difference between the system output and its estimate). To isolate faults, we can compute the invariant sets associated with each fault, and their projection in the residual...conference paper 2018

Vlot, S.J. (author)In oil supply chains, crude oil needs to be transported from oil fields to refineries, and refined products need to be transported from refineries to regional depots. On land, pipelines are the preferred mode for long-distance oil transportation, because they are safe, efficient, silent, and cheap compared to other modes of transport. Pipelines...master thesis 2017

Tohidian, M. (author), Madadi, I. (author), Staszewski, R.B. (author)The zero/low intermediate frequency (IF) receiver (RX) architecture has enabled full CMOS integration. As the technology scales and wireless standards become ever more challenging, the issues related to time-varying dc offsets, the second-order nonlinearity, and flicker noise become more critical. In this paper, we propose a new architecture of...journal article 2017

Gonen, B. (author), Sebastiano, F. (author), Quan, Rui (author), van Veldhoven, Robert (author), Makinwa, K.A.A. (author)This paper presents the first dynamic zoom ADC. Intended for audio applications, it achieves 109-dB DR, 106-dB signal-to-noise ratio, and 103-dB SNDR in a 20-kHz bandwidth, while dissipating only 1.12 mW. This translates into the state-of-the-art energy efficiency as expressed by a Schreier FoM of 181.5 dB. It also achieves the state-of-the...journal article 2017
