Martinelli, Cristiano (author), Coraddu, A. (author), Cammarano, Andrea (author)Meta-heuristic optimisation algorithms are high-level procedures designed to discover near-optimal solutions to optimisation problems. These strategies can efficiently explore the design space of the problems; therefore, they perform well even when incomplete and scarce information is available. Such characteristics make them the ideal...conference paper 2024

Cunillera, A. (author), Bešinović, Nikola (author), Lentink, Ramon M. (author), van Oort, N. (author), Goverde, R.M.P. (author)The dynamics of a moving train are usually described by means of a motion model based on Newton's second law. This model uses as input track geometry data and train characteristics like mass, the parameters that model the running resistance, the maximum tractive effort and power, and the brake rates to be applied. It can reproduce and predict...journal article 2023

Crystal Plasticity Simulation of in-grain Microstructural Evolution during Large Plastic DeformationSedighiani, K. (author)The capability of high-resolution modeling of crystals subjected to large plastic strain is essential in predicting many important phenomena occurring in polycrystalline materials, such as microstructure, deformation localization, and in-grain texture evolution. However, due to the heterogeneity of the plastic deformation in polycrystals, the...doctoral thesis 2022

DELFOSSE, Alexandre (author)Since 2019, the FAA and the EASA impose to all airline pilots to follow, as part of their training, a stall and recovery training. To mitigate the risks, this training takes place in ground-based simulators. To make it happen, models of the aircraft behaviour at high angle of attack need to be developed. Among the different modeling approaches...master thesis 2022

Sedighiani, K. (author), Traka, K. (author), Roters, Franz (author), Raabe, Dierk (author), Sietsma, J. (author), Diehl, Martin (author)Physics-based crystal plasticity models rely on certain statistical assumptions about the collective behavior of dislocation populations on one slip system and their interactions with the dislocations on the other slip systems. One main advantage of using such physics-based constitutive dislocation models in crystal plasticity kinematic...journal article 2022

Sun, Z. (author), Kasbergen, C. (author), van Dalen, K.N. (author), Anupam, K. (author), Scarpas, Athanasios (author), Erkens, S. (author)The structural evaluation of existing pavements forms the basis for formulating cost-effective maintenance and rehabilitation strategies. A promising tool for pavement structural evaluation at network level is the Traffic Speed Deflectometer (TSD) test. However, the application of the TSD test is hindered by the lack of a robust and efficient...journal article 2022

Burbano, Rudy Alexis Guejia (author), Petrone, Giovanni (author), Manganiello, P. (author)In this paper, an artificial neural network (ANN) is used for isolating faults and degradation phenomena occurring in photovoltaic (PV) panels. In the literature, it is well known that the values of the single diode model (SDM) associated to the PV source are strictly related to degradation phenomena and their variation is an indicator of panel...journal article 2021

Vrijdag, A. (author), Martelli, M. (author)Simulation models of the ship propulsion system play an increasingly important role, for instance in controller design and condition monitoring. However, creation of such simulation models requires significant time and effort. In this paper, the application of deterministic identification techniques on a DC-electric ship drive train is explored...journal article 2021

Bni Lam, N.H.N. (author), Al-Khoury, Rafid (author)This paper presents a new parameter identification (PI) algorithm for estimating effective and detailed thermal parameters of ground source heat pump systems using data obtained from the well-known thermal response test. The PI comprises an iterative scheme coupling a semi-analytical forward model to an inverse model. The forward model is...journal article 2020

Sedighiani, K. (author), Diehl, M. (author), Traka, K. (author), Roters, F. (author), Sietsma, J. (author), Raabe, D. (author)A severe obstacle for the routine use of crystal plasticity models is the effort associated with determining their constitutive parameters. Obtaining these parameters usually requires time-consuming micromechanical tests that allow probing of individual grains. In this study, a novel, computationally efficient, and fully automated approach is...journal article 2020

Sun, Z. (author), Kasbergen, C. (author), van Dalen, K.N. (author), Anupam, K. (author), Scarpas, Athanasios (author), Erkens, S. (author)Pavements generally demand necessary maintenance and rehabilitation to maintain their service performance in the whole lifespan. The maintenance and rehabilitation strategies are usually formulated based on the results of non-destructive testing, in which the traffic speed deflectometer (TSD) test is an efficient tool for pavement structural...conference paper 2020

Yao, Yu (author), Huang, Yunkai (author), Peng, Fei (author), Dong, J. (author), Zhang, Hanqi (author)In this article, an improved deadbeat predictive current control (DPCC) method with parameters identification for surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous machines (SPMSMs) is proposed. With the proposed DPCC method, zero steady-state current error and deadbeat dynamic current response could be achieved, even with inaccurate initial motor...journal article 2020

Goldschmeding, Marcel (author)The introduction of control systems in the automotive industry has significantly increased safety. Improved control over the vehicle dynamics has been shown to contribute to substantial reductions in the number of deaths and serious injuries resulting from road traffic crashes. The introduction of Electronic Stability Control yielded impressive...master thesis 2019

Liu, Chenguang (author), Zheng, Huarong (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author), Chu, Xiumin (author), Xie, Shuo (author)Since vessel dynamics could vary during maneuvering because of load changes, speed changing, environmental disturbances, aging of mechanism, etc., the performance of model-based path following control may be degraded if the controller uses the same motion model all the time. This article proposes an adaptive path following control method...journal article 2019

Vrijdag, A. (author), Sang, Yueming (author)In this paper the concept of ship propulsion system “fingerprinting” is explored as an alternative for data driven models that require extensive measured datasets collected over long periods of ship operation. As a first exploratory step a model of a ship in bollard pull conditions is linearised and its transfer functions are determined....conference paper 2018

Dostal, Leo (author), Lourens, E. (author), Metrikine, A. (author)The problem of level ice interacting with compliant structures is addressed, where the ice loads can depend on the dynamical behavior of the structures. We are interested in a special type of ice-induced vibration, known as frequency lock-in, and characterized by having the dominant frequency of the ice forces near a natural frequency of the...journal article 2017

Pronker, A.J. (author), Abbink, D.A. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, Max (author)Humans can rapidly change their low-frequency arm dynamics (i.e., stiffness) to resist forces or give way to them. Quantifying driver’s time-varying arm dynamics is important for the development of steer-by-wire systems and haptic driver support systems. Conventional LTI identification, and even time-varying techniques such as wavelets, fail to...conference paper 2017

Oregui, M. (author), Li, Z. (author), Dollevoet, R.P.B.J. (author), Moraal, J. (author)In railway tracks, short wave rail surface defects give rise to high wheel-rail dynamic forces and noise. Having a better insight into short wave defect occurrence could lead to development of adapted maintenance methods or track design to delay or avoid defect, so that the high short wave defect related maintenance costs may be reduced. As part...conference paper 2011
