Software Strategies to Improve Immunity of Programmable Embedded Systems against Disturbances KU Leuven
Programmable Embedded Systems form the cornerstone for the rising challenges in the next industrial revolution of cyber physical systems where everything gets connected, data is interchanged and decisions are made by programmable controllers. Application areas are mobility, manufacturing, smart energy consumers, health and elderly care. This implies a more frequent use of such systems in applications requiring high reliability in harsh ...

Smart Control for Precision Mechanical Weed Management on a Mobile Robot Platform Ghent University
Mechanical weed management is a major bottleneck for sustainable yet efficient food production. Intelligent and versatile intra-row weeding solutions remain unavailable due to the high complexity of agricultural environments. This project aims to create a learning methodology that combines model-based learning of dynamics with model-free residual reinforcement learning in a simulated environment to learn adaptive control policies for weed ...

Smart, Aware, Integrated Wind Farm Control Interacting with Digital Twins Ghent University
ICONIC aims to develop innovative physical and digital tools to achieve fundamental breakthroughs for the integrated control of wind farms, considering the whole physical system at farm, turbine, and component levels, in particular the complex aerodynamic interactions among turbines. ICONIC aims to increase farm-wide power production by 15-20% under optimal wind speeds and directions for typical wind farms suffering from wake effects, with a ...
Supported ionic liquid phases for extraction and separation of medical radiolanthanides - Towards purification of medical samarium-153 KU Leuven
Radiolanthanides are gaining more importance in nuclear medicine because of their favorable decay characteristics. The emission of beta particles with energies suitable to destroy malicous tumor cells is very useful in cancer therapy, whereas the emission of gamma photons can be used for diagnostic purposes. Some radiolantanides are even able to serve both purposes concurrently (theranostics) making it possible to follow the effectiveness of ...
