Shi, S. (author), Cheng, Xiaodong (author), Van den Hof, Paul M.J. (author)Identifiability of a single module in a network of transfer functions is determined by whether a particular transfer function in the network can be uniquely distinguished within a network model set, on the basis of data. Whereas previous research has focused on the situations that all network signals are either excited or measured, we develop...journal article 2023

Guijt, Roosmarijn (author)For several years, the importance of a neighborhood-specific approach to tackling overweight has been emphasized. However, to date, no simulation model has been encountered that provides insight into the determinants of becoming overweight in a specific neighborhood. It is therefore difficult for policymakers to decide on a set of appropriate...master thesis 2022

Pan, K. (author), Palensky, P. (author), Mohajerin Esfahani, P. (author)The main objective of this article is to develop scalable dynamic anomaly detectors with high-fidelity simulators of power systems. On the one hand, models in high-fidelity simulators are typically 'intractable' if one opts to describe them in a mathematical formulation in order to apply existing model-based approaches from the anomaly...journal article 2022

(author), Tindemans, Simon H. (author)Nowadays, transmission system operators require higher degree of observability in real-time to gain situational awareness and improve the decision-making process to guarantee a safe and reliable operation. Digitalization of energy systems allows utilities to monitor the system dynamic performance in real-time at fast time scales. The use of...journal article 2022
