A Study of the Classical Landscape at the Wang River Villa of Wang Wei
No full textThe landscape of Wang Wei's Wang River Villa is examined by reviewing the essays and papers written about the poetical collaboration, the “Wang River Collection.” The purpose of this paper is to clarify the meaning of villa architecture in China. The author expects that this research will contribute to a mutual understanding between cultures. The villa was a Utopia for Wang. On the other hand, he was a pious Buddhist and Buddhistic concepts are reflected in the landscape. I consider the features of the classical landscape of Xie Lingyun and "Chu Ci," as written in “The Collection,” a reflection of the Buddhistic concept. When considering what the classics meant to Wang Wei, it is apparent that his villa is a representation of the classical landscape. It is not an imitation of the classical landscape, but a unique and original creation of art by Wang.departmental bulletin pape

Reliability-based co-design and its applications to wind energy and mobile energy storage systems
No full textAutonomous systems, such as autonomous driving vehicles, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and field robots, received much attentions recently. The performance of autonomous systems relies on both its physical design and the appropriate control strategies, which often takes place at an early stage of design. The plant design and the control design are strongly coupled. Neglecting this coupling effect may cause an imbalance in the feasible design spaces of plant design and control design, such as over-constrained operation conditions, over design, or requirement of skilled operators, which hinders the development of autonomous systems. On the other hand, the products are manufactured goods and usually operate in environments with uncertainty. Reliable operation of such systems ask for balanced physical design and feasible control decisions to address the parametric uncertainty and stochastic environmental disturbances.
While integrated physical and control system co-design has been demonstrated successfully on several engineering system design applications, it has been primarily applied in a deterministic manner without considering uncertainties. An opportunity exists to study non-deterministic co-design strategies, taking into account various uncertainties in an integrated co-design framework. While significant advancements have been made in co-design and RBDO separately, little is known about methods where reliability-based dynamic system design and control design optimization are considered jointly. In this research, we investigate optimal design and control of dynamical systems with model parametric uncertainties, which presumably operate in uncertain environments. Techniques in control co-design (CCD) and reliability-based design optimization (RBDO) are adapted and integrated to solve the proposed problem. Since the proposed method adopts the idea of multi-disciplinary design optimization, it can improve the performance of autonomous systems without leveraging the difficulty in design and control for systems with uncertainties.
First, the problem formulation and strategies to solve the reliability-based control co-design problem is presented. A comparison of accuracy and efficiency is made using numerical and simple engineering case studies. The method is then applied to a horizontal axis wind turbine. The uncertain wind load and model parameters of a wind turbine are compensated through active control or endured by a reliable design regarding its aerodynamics and structural dynamics. Different strategies of reliability assessment are also compared, which provides insights on their advantages and limits under different cases.
In the second application, reliability-based control co-design is applied to Lithium-ion battery. The electrode and charging current are optimized to minimize its charging time while regulating its aging effect for reasonable cycle life. The multi-scale nature of the problem requires first principle model to preserve the coupling effect between electrode design at the micro scale and the charging control at the macro scale. However, it is not feasible to use the first principle model for control optimization. A hybrid physics and machine learning strategy is proposed in this work, which extends the applicability of reliability-based control co-design to multi-scale problems.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'Closed Access', the embargo will last until 2023-08-01The student, Tonghui Cui, accepted the attached license on 2021-07-14 at 12:23.The student, Tonghui Cui, submitted this Dissertation for approval on 2021-07-14 at 12:46.This Dissertation was approved for publication on 2021-07-16 at 14:17.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #16820 on 2022-01-12 at 13:04:15Made available in DSpace on 2022-01-12T22:55:01Z (GMT).

Supporting the research process through expanded library data services
No full textPurpose – The purpose of this paper is to describe how the authors gained a better understanding of the variety of library users' data needs, and how gradually some new data services were established based on current capabilities.Design/methodology/approach – This paper uses a case study of the new data services at the John Cotton Dana Library, at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, Newark campus, to demonstrate the possible ways to extend data reference services and provide data computing services. A content analysis of services records shows how each user group falls into the multiple data services levels and subcategories.Findings – Library users can be classified into many different categories, and each of these may have different needs. Research centers might have big projects involving data gathering and applications where a librarian can mainly provide consultation; while an individual faculty member or student might need the librarians as research partners, with help for their specific problems. Computing data services can involve group training and statistical analysis assistance, where researchers need emergent help. Data librarians can take various opportunities for data management education, thereby gradually raising awareness and cultivating better research habits among researchers.Originality/value – Library data computing services can make unique contributions to faculty and students' research and study. Institution, library and users' interaction determines the levels and extent of data services and is generalized from the description and analysis of typical data service examples. Classic concept of data services levels is applied to a concrete case of data services program, and sub-categories of each data services level and user types are developed based on the authors' services record.This article is (c) Emerald Group Publishing and permission has been granted for this version to appear here at the RUcore: Rutgers University Community Repository .

Beyond Technical Instruction
No full textAs a data services librarian, I teach workshops on how to use statistical software. In addition to demonstrate step by step techniques and let the students do hands-on exercises, I point them to additional online tutorials and other resources. I also introduce them to principles and best practice of data analysis. Library guides are also set up for students to come back later reviewing the class notes or looking for links to other resources. Based on a feedback survey, this poster will reveal how students think of the usefulness of these different types of contents.Poster Presented in VALE/NJ ACRL/NJLA CUS Fourteenth Annual Users' Conference: Demonstrating Value for Every User, January 2013
