This paper presents a study on temperature control with a heater in a building using Model Predictive Control (MPC) with a focus on addressing two uncertainties: in model and the weather forecast.In previous works, a grey-box model of the building system was developed, and the values of parameters were estimated by the estimation techniques.In this
The degradation of bionanomaterials is essential for medical applications of nanoformulations, but most inorganic-based delivery agents do not biodegrade at controllable rates.In this contribution, we describe the controllable plasmonic photocracking of gold@silica nanoparticles by tuning the power and wavelength of the laser irradiation, or 5 Piec
Recent advances in signal processing and machine learning techniques have enabled the application of Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) technologies to fields such as medicine, industry and recreation.However, BCIs still suffer from the requirement of frequent calibration sessions due to the intra- and inter- individual variability of brain-signals, St
Litter decomposition plays a pivotal role in the global carbon cycle, but is difficult to measure on a global scale, especially by citizen scientists.Here, citizen scientists, i.e., school students with their teachers, used the globally applied and standardized Tea Bag Index (TBI) method to collect data on litter decomposition in urban areas in Aus
