Parameter investigation for urban surface‐energy balance: A large‐eddy simulation study

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Large eddy simulation modelling is used to investigate the variation in surface‐energy balance (SEB) across an ensemble of morphometrically identical urban geometries. The geometries have the same plan‐area fraction, vegetated fraction, and frontal‐area index, but are unique in terms of building and green‐space layout.

A CNN Approach for Simultaneous Spatiotemporal Fault Interpretation

Quality and Reliability Engineering International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have emerged as one of the most effective tools for image analysis. In this study, we propose a custom‐designed CNN architecture to construct a process control scheme based on image data. The product image is partitioned into equal‐sized grids, each comprising three channels: (i) reference image, (ii ...

Output Feedback Design for Parameter Varying Systems Subject to Persistent Disturbances and Control Rate Constraints

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper develops a framework for designing output feedback controllers for constrained linear parameter‐varying systems that experience persistent disturbances. We specifically propose an incremental parameter‐varying output feedback control law to address control rate constraints, as well as state and control amplitude constraints.

Distributed Optimization of Finite Condition Number for Laplacian Matrix in Multi‐Agent Systems

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper addresses the distributed optimization of the finite condition number of the Laplacian matrix in multi‐agent systems. The finite condition number, defined as the ratio of the largest to the second smallest eigenvalue of the Laplacian matrix, plays an important role in determining the convergence rate and performance of consensus ...

Location‐Assisted Graph‐Based User Scheduling in Multi‐User MIMO LEO NTN Systems

International Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper addresses user clustering and scheduling for multi‐user MIMO low Earth orbit nonterrestrial network systems in full frequency reuse. Since the number of on‐ground user terminals is usually much higher than the number of on‐board LEO satellite antennas, user scheduling becomes a fundamental task.

Beyond feasibility filters: How expertise heterogeneity enables innovation recognition

Strategic Management Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Organizations often struggle to identify promising innovations that balance novelty and feasibility in multidisciplinary domains, yet how does evaluator expertise heterogeneity shape these assessments? This study examines how evaluator expertise influences innovation evaluation through a field experiment with National ...

Values and visibility: How CEO activism influences private and public consumer choices

Strategic Management Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Firms' and executives' stances on controversial issues affect consumer behavior. This “political consumerism” might be motivated by ideology and a desire to signal to peers, and thus vary for private and public purchases. We conduct an experiment with 1198 consumers to study how purchase visibility affects responses to CEO ...

Conundrums of Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance Biosensors

Small, EarlyView.
Localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) biosensing faces fundamental conundrums arising from finite field decay lengths, environmental cross‐sensitivities, and batch variability. Competing surface, bulk, and electrostatic effects can induce red or blue spectral shifts, complicating quantification, reproducibility, and interpretation in complex or ...

Trading Strategies on Local Electricity Markets Using Agent‐Based Modelling and Reinforcement Learning: Vectors to Expand Energy Communities

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Energy communities (ECs) members have a high degree of heterogeneity. Agent‐based modelling (ABM) allows for the modelling of each entity as an agent with distinct characteristics and decision rules. This is particularly useful when the heterogeneity of agents affects outcomes.

Impact of half‐joint failures on RC girder bridges: A robustness quantification study

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The robustness of bridge structures is critical to ensuring safety and service continuity, particularly in aging infrastructure exposed to degradation and unexpected loads. Reinforced concrete (RC) half‐joint bridges—widely built in Italy between the 1950s and 1970s—exhibit specific vulnerabilities due to inspection challenges, durability ...
