Electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide is one of the plausible approaches towards renewable energy carriers. When coupled with electricity, which can be provided by sustainable technologies, it becomes a method of high importance with potential value ...
Several hydrophobic long-chain quaternary ammonium and phosphonium ionic liquids (ILs) with functionalized aromatic anions were prepared following a metathesis route using tricaprylmethylammonium chloride (Aliquat 336) and trihexyl(tetradecyl) phosphonium ...
Au nano- and microstructures such as polyhedral crystals, large single-cryst. nanoplates, hollow trapeziform crystals, holey polyhedra, and dendrites were produced via microwave heating of HAuCl4·4H2O in a variety of ionic liqs. (ILs) in the absence of cap ...
In urban air mobility (UAM) networks, takeoff and landing sites, called vertiports, are likely to experience intermittent closures due to, e.g., adverse weather. To ensure safety, all in-flight urban air vehicles (UAVs) in a UAM network must therefore have ...
In this paper simultaneous localization and map building is performed with a hybrid, metric - topological, approach. A global topological map connects local metric maps, allowing a compact environment model, which does not require global metric consistency ...
This paper presents a novel idea of automatic fault localization by exploiting counterexamples generated by a model checker. The key insight is that, if a candidate statement is faulty, it is possible to modify (i.e. correct) this statement so that the cou ...
Recent advances in Model Predictive Control (MPC) algorithms and methodologies, combined with the surge of computational power of available embedded platforms, allows the use of real-time optimization-based control of fast mechatronic systems. This paper p ...
Platform chemicals are usually derived from petrochemical feedstocks. A sustainable alternative commences with lignocellulosic biomass, a renewable feedstock, but one that is highly challenging to process. Ionic liquids (ILs) are able to solubilize biomass ...
