Koppen, S. (author), van der Kolk, M. (author), van den Boom, S.J. (author)Real-world structural optimisation problems involve multiple loading conditions and design constraints, with responses typi cally depending on states of discretised governing equations. Generally, one uses gradient-based nested analysis and design approaches to solve these problems. Herein, solving both physical and adjoint problems dominates...article 2022

Natali, A. (author), Isufi, E. (author), Coutino Minguez, M.A. (author)This work proposes an algorithmic framework to learn time-varying graphs from online data. The generality offered by the framework renders it model-independent, i.e., it can be theoretically analyzed in its abstract formulation and then instantiated under a variety of model-dependent graph learning problems. This is possible by phrasing (time...article 2022

Heedt, S. (author), Kouwenhoven, L.P. (author)We systematically study three-terminal InSb-Al nanowire devices by using radio-frequency reflectometry. Tunneling spectroscopy measurements on both ends of the hybrid nanowires are performed while systematically varying the chemical potential, magnetic field, and junction transparencies. Identifying the lowest-energy state allows for the...article 2022

(author)Software-defined Tactical Networks (SDTNs) have the potential to host intelligent mechanisms to manage ever-changing communication scenarios in networks with heterogeneous radio links. However, standard SDN protocols, like Open-Flow, were designed for non-mobile, reliable, high throughput, and low latency networks. This fact motivated the...conference paper 2022

(author)Additive manufacturing provides the possibility to manufacture parts on demand and offers tremendous form freedom compared to traditional manufacturing methods. However, Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) is not yet widely used for highly structurally loaded parts, as their strength is hard to control and to predict. In this work we aim to analyze...article 2021

Madadi, B. (author), van Nes, R. (author), Snelder, M. (author), van Arem, B. (author)This study focuses on network configurations to accommodate automated vehicles (AVs) on road networks during the transition period to full automation. The literature suggests that dedicated infrastructure for AVs and enhanced infrastructure for mixed traffic (i.e., AVs on the same lanes with conventional vehicles) are the main alternatives so...article 2021

Natali, A. (author), Isufi, E. (author), Coutino, M. (author), Leus, G. (author)Topology identification is an important problem across many disciplines, since it reveals pairwise interactions among entities and can be used to interpret graph data. In many scenarios, however, this (unknown) topology is time-varying, rendering the problem even harder. In this paper, we focus on a time-varying version of the structural...conference paper 2021
