van Vondelen, A.A.W. (author), Ottenheym, Joris (author), Pamososuryo, A.K. (author), Navalkar, S.T. (author), van Wingerden, J.W. (author)Wind farm controllers such as the Helix approach have shown potential in increasing plant power production through wake mixing. The concept suggests that actuating the upstream turbines' blade pitching with a specific periodic signal can induce a helix-shaped wake, thereby alleviating wind velocity deficit on downstream turbines. Wake mixing...journal article 2023

Çelik, F.T. (author), Joof, Sulayman (author), Karaçuha, Kamil (author)The present study proposes a dipole filtering antenna with wide-band characteristics for communication. The filtering is achieved by employing parasitic elements and wide-band characteristic is obtained by reshaping the dipole and using specially designed balun structure. One radiation null is optimized at the higher frequency band limit for...conference paper 2023

Shahroodi, Taha (author), Miao, Michael (author), Zahedi, M.Z. (author), Wong, J.S.S.M. (author), Hamdioui, S. (author)The high execution time of DNA sequence alignment negatively affects many genomic studies that rely on sequence alignment results. Pre-alignment filtering was introduced as a step before alignment to reduce the execution time of short-read sequence alignment greatly. With its success, i.e., achieving high accuracy and thus removing...conference paper 2023

Li, Z. (author), Rajan, R.T. (author)Affine formation control of multiagent systems has recently received increasing attention in various applications. The distributed control of these agents, under single integrator dynamics, relies on the observations of relative positions of the neighboring agents, which when unavailable is detrimental to the mission. In this paper, we...conference paper 2023

de Rooij, S.J.S. (author), Batselier, K. (author), Hunyadi, Borbala (author)Recent advancements in wearable EEG devices have highlighted the importance of accurate seizure detection algorithms, yet the ever-increasing size of the generated datasets poses a significant challenge to existing seizure detection methods based on kernel machines. Typically, this problem is mitigated by significantly undersampling the...conference paper 2023

Viset, F.M. (author), Helmons, R.L.J. (author), Kok, M. (author)Accurately estimating the positions of multi-agent systems in indoor environments is challenging due to the lack of Global Navigation Satelite System (GNSS) signals. Noisy measurements of position and orientation can cause the integrated position estimate to drift without bound. Previous research has proposed using magnetic field simultaneous...conference paper 2023

Khodabandeh, A. (author), Teunissen, P.J.G. (author), Psychas, D. (author)To obtain single-receiver Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) parameter solutions, the PPP-RTK user-filter combines measurements with time-correlated corrections that are separately computed by the filter of an external provider. The consequence of exercising such double-filtering is that the Kalman filter’s standard assumption of...journal article 2023

Zou, Joanna (author), Lourens, E. (author), Cicirello, A. (author)Virtual sensing techniques have gained traction in applications to the structural health monitoring of monopile-based offshore wind turbines, as the strain response below the mudline, which is a primary indicator of fatigue damage accumulation, is impractical to measure directly with physical instrumentation. The Gaussian process latent force...journal article 2023

Jin, J. (author), Li, Z. (author)Empirical mode decomposition (EMD) lacks a strong theoretical support although extensively applied. We propose a theoretical framework for a succinct EMD in this work, with the assumption of invariant extrema locations for one IMF extraction. We define the envelope mean filter (EMF) and prove that the filter matrix satisfies five properties....journal article 2023

(author)The development of new wind farm control strategies can benefit from combined analysis of flow dynamics in the farm and the behavior of individual turbines within one simulation environment. In this work, we present such an environment by developing a new coupling between the large-eddy simulation (LES) code GRASP and the multiphysics wind...journal article 2023

Diab Montero, H.A. (author), Li, Meng (author), van Dinther, Ylona (author), Vossepoel, F.C. (author)Our ability to forecast earthquakes and slow slip events is hampered by limited information on the current state of stress on faults. Ensemble data assimilation methods permit estimating the state by combining physics-based models and observations, while considering their uncertainties. We use an ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) to estimate...journal article 2023

Unscented Kalman filter-based blade-effective wind speed estimation for a vertical-axis wind turbineBrandetti, L. (author), Liu, Y. (author), Pamososuryo, A.K. (author), Mulders, S.P. (author), Watson, S.J. (author), van Wingerden, J.W. (author)On-shore horizontal-axis wind turbines (HAWTs) provide a cost-effective solution for low carbon electricity generation. However, public acceptance is still a problem. A possible alternative to a HAWT is a vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT), which is more visually appealing and less noisy. Furthermore, the inherent omni-directionality of VAWTs...journal article 2023
