“It Is Much Safer to Be Sparse than Connected”: Safe Control of Robotic Swarm Density Dynamics with PDE Optimization with State Constraints

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This paper proposes a novel control framework to ensure safety of a robotic swarm. A feedback optimization controller is capable of driving the swarm toward a target density while keeping risk‐zone exposure below a safety threshold. Theory and experiments show how safety is more effectively achieved for sparsely connected swarms.

Determining a parabolic system by boundary observation of its non-negative solutions with biological applications

open access: yes, 2023
In this paper, we consider the inverse problem of determining some coefficients within a coupled nonlinear parabolic system, through boundary observation of its non-negative solutions.

Disentangling Aleatoric and Epistemic Uncertainty in Physics‐Informed Neural Networks: Application to Insulation Material Degradation Prognostics

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Physics‐Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) provide a framework for integrating physical laws with data. However, their application to Prognostics and Health Management (PHM) remains constrained by the limited uncertainty quantification (UQ) capabilities.

Multiple positive solutions of a Sturm-Liouville boundary value problem with conflicting nonlinearities

open access: yes, 2017
We study the second order nonlinear differential equation u''+∑_i α_ia_i(x)g_i(u) − ∑j β_jb_j(x)k_j(u)=0, where α_i,β_j>0, a_i(x), b_j(x) are non-negative Lebesgue integrable functions defined in [0,L], and the nonlinearities g_i(s), k_j(s) are ...

Radiation‐Absorptive Heat Transport in Buoyancy‐Driven MHD Nanofluids Flow With Cross‐Diffusion and Chemical Interaction Effects Over a Vertical Moving Plate

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article investigates the Soret–Dufour cross‐diffusion effects on radiation‐absorptive unsteady free‐convection of magnetized nanofluids (TiO2–water$$ {\mathrm{TiO}}_2\hbox{--} \mathrm{water} $$ and Cu–water$$ \mathrm{Cu}\hbox{--} \mathrm{water} $$) flow over a vertical moving permeable plate.

A theory of generalised solutions for ideal gas mixtures with Maxwell-Stefan diffusion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
After the pioneering work by Giovangigli on mathematics of multicomponent flows, several attempts were made to introduce global weak solutions for the PDEs describing the dynamics of fluid mixtures. While the incompressible case with constant density was

Optimization of 3D‐Printed Structured Packings—Current State and Future Developments

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
This paper gives an overview about structured packing development for distillation, surveying heuristic development cycles, computational fluid dynamics simulations, and additive manufacturing techniques. The emerging application of shape optimization to improve packings is emphasized, and its benefits, impact, and limitations are discussed.

Asymptotic average solutions to linear second order semi-elliptic PDEs: a Pizzetti-type Theorem

open access: yes, 2022
By exploiting an old idea first used by Pizzetti for the classical Laplacian, we introduce a notion of {\it asymptotic average solutions} making pointwise solvable every Poisson equation $\mathcal{L} u(x)=-f(x)$ with continuous data $f$, where $\mathcal ...

Myocardial inflammation is associated with impaired mitochondrial oxidative capacity in ischaemic cardiomyopathy

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1246-1255, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Myocardial inflammation and impaired mitochondrial oxidative capacity are hallmarks of heart failure (HF) pathophysiology. The extent of myocardial inflammation in patients suffering from ischaemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) or dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and its association with mitochondrial energy metabolism are unknown.
