Variational geometry processing by Wang, Yu

“…First two chapters use Partial-Differential-Equation-based (PDE-based) methods to solve curve smoothing problems, in which level-set modelling and phase-field modelling are used respectively. Piece-wise constant functions are used to represent interfaces by discon- tinues of the functions in Chapters 4, 5, and 6, and combinatorial optimization tech- niques are applied for the minimization problems. …”

General circulation models simulate negative liquid water path–droplet number correlations, but anthropogenic aerosols still increase simulated liquid water path by Mülmenstädt, J, Gryspeerdt, E, Dipu, S, Quaas, J, Ackerman, AS, Fridlind, AM, Tornow, F, Bauer, SE, Gettelman, A, Ming, Y, Zheng, Y, Ma, P-L, Wang, H, Zhang, K, Christensen, MW, Varble, AC, Leung, LR, Liu, X, Neubauer, D, Partridge, DG, Stier, P, Takemura, T

“…We show that the latest generation of GCMs includes models that produce a negative correlation between the present-day cloud droplet number and liquid water path, a key piece of observational evidence supporting liquid water path reduction by anthropogenic aerosols and one that earlier-generation GCMs could not reproduce. …”

Lab-to-Market Design of an Electrodialysis-Based Home-Scale Water Desalination System by Floryan, Marie, Bowers, Quinn, Sternberg, Zachary, Gembali, Sahas, Goyal, Akshita, Bessette, Jonathan, Honarparvar, Soraya, Winter, Amos

Toward intelligent multizone thermal control with multiagent deep reinforcement learning by Li, Jie, Zhang, Wei, Gao, Guanyu, Wen, Yonggang, Jin, Guangyu, Christopoulos, Georgios

“…However, most of them either make the over-simplified assumption on thermal comfort with unsatisfied comfort performance or deal with the single-zone thermal control only with limited practical impact. A few preliminary pieces of research on multi-zone control are available, but they fail to keep pace with the latest advancements in the deep learning-based control techniques. …”
