This doctoral thesis navigates the complex landscape of motion coordination and formation control within teams of rotary-wing Micro Aerial Vehicles (MAVs). Prompted by the intricate demands of real-world applications such as search and rescue or surveillan ...
Offshore floating wind turbines (OFWTs) are becoming increasingly popular due to their ability to exploit deep-sea wind resources. However, since wind turbines are installed on floaters instead of solid foundations, the dynamic response of an OFWT due to ...
Out-of-body experiences (OBEs) are characterized by the subjective feeling of being located outside one's physical body and perceiving one's own body from an elevated perspective looking downwards. OBEs have been correlated with abnormal integration of bod ...
The effects of chordwise pressure- and inertia-driven deformations on the power extraction potential of a kinematically constrained oscillating thin plate that undergoes a heaving and pitching motion are investigated. 2D fully coupled fluid-structure inter ...

A key element of the European Union's Human Brain Project (HBP) and other large-scale brain research projects is the simulation of large-scale model networks of neurons. Here, we argue why such simulations will likely be indispensable for bridging the scal ...

The effects of thermal disorder on the electronic properties of organic/inorganic halide perovskites were investigated using ab initio molecular dynamics simulations. It was generally found that band gap variations due to effects of thermal disorder are th ...

In contrast to traditional cameras, whose pixels have a common exposure time, event-based cameras are novel bio-inspired sensors whose pixels work independently and asynchronously output intensity changes (called "events"), with microsecond resolution. Sin ...
