Performance analysis of control allocation using data‐driven integral quadratic constraints
Advanced Control for Applications, Volume 4, Issue 4, December 2022., 2022 Abstract A new method is presented for evaluating the performance of a nonlinear control allocation system within a linear control loop. To that end, a worst‐case gain analysis problem is formulated that can be readily solved by means of well‐established methods from robustness analysis using integral quadratic constraints (IQCs).

A Variational Beam Model for Failure of Cellular and Truss‐Based Architected Materials
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView., 2023 Herein, a versatile and efficient beam modeling framework is developed to predict the nonlinear response and failure of cellular, truss‐based, and woven architected materials. It enables the exploration of their design space and the optimization of their mechanical behavior in the nonlinear regime. A variational formulation of a beam model is presented

Architected Lattices with a Topological Transition
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView., 2023 This article develops topological metamaterials showing multidirectional two‐step deformation under compression by embedding contact‐enabled topological mechanisms into lattice structures. Experiments on 3D‐printed 2D and 3D lattices and finite element simulations are conducted to demonstrate the working principle of the topological metamaterials.
