Design for flexibility: An adjustable robust optimization approach with decision‐dependent uncertainty

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flexibility is a crucial characteristic of industrial systems that face increasing volatilities and is therefore essential to ensure feasible operation under uncertainty. Flexibility is often closely tied to the design of a system, and careful consideration must be taken to understand the trade‐off between design cost and operational ...

A Physics Constrained Machine Learning Pipeline for Young's Modulus Prediction in Multimaterial Hyperelastic Cylinders Guided by Contact Mechanics

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
A physics‐guided machine learning framework estimates Young's modulus in multilayered multimaterial hyperelastic cylinders using contact mechanics. A semiempirical stiffness law is embedded into a custom neural network, ensuring physically consistent predictions. Validation against experimental and numerical data on C.

Real‐Time Sampling‐Based Model Predictive Control Based on Reverse Kullback–Leibler Divergence and Its Adaptive Acceleration

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents a new sampling‐based model predictive control minimizing reverse Kullback‐Leibler divergence to quickly find a local optimum. In addition, a modified Nesterov's acceleration method is introduced for faster convergence. The method is effective for real‐time simulations and real‐world operability improvement on a force‐driven mobile ...

Inequality [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper reviews five striking facts about inequality across countries. As Kuznets (1955) famously first documented, inequality first rises and then falls with income.

A Novel Contact‐Implicit Trajectory Optimization Framework for Quadruped Locomotion without Fixed Contact Sequences

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Legged robots have advanced in environmental interaction through contact, but most works rely on fixed contact sequences. This work presents a new method based on an indirect optimization method for legged robots to automatically generate contact sequences for complex movements.

Liberal and Deliberative Democracy in the Global South: Models, Functions, Practices

open access: yesPolitics and Governance
Deliberative democracy is a consolidated strand of political theory, its current expansion sustained by ongoing experiments in political practice. Initially, model-based theories framed deliberation as a corrective to shortcomings in liberal democracy ...

Planning and Control Framework for a Quadruped Robot With Changeable Configuration

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Multiconfiguration quadruped robots enhance adaptability by switching between mammal‐like and reptile‐like morphologies. This study presents a nonlinear constraint‐based motion planner integrated with a hierarchical whole‐body controller, enabling robust configuration switching and locomotion on complex terrains. Experiments on slopes, irregular bricks,
