We are presenting a progress overview associated with our work on a data-driven environment for multiphysics applications (DDEMA). In this paper, we emphasize the dynamic-data-driven adaptive modeling and simulation aspects. Adaptive simulation examples of sensororiginating data-driven precomputed solution synthesis are given for two applications. Finally, some of the computational implementati...

Consider a machine that can start production off-target where the initial offset is unknown and unobservable. The goal is to determine the optimal series of machine adjustments that minimize the expected value of the sum of quadratic off-target costs and fixed adjustment costs. Apart of the unknown initial offset, the process is supposed to be in a state of statistical control, so the process m...

Surfaces covered with pebbles and small rocks can often be found in nature or in human-shaped environments. Generating an accurate three-dimensional model of these kind of surfaces from a reference image can be challenging, especially if one wants to be able to animate each pebble individually. To undertake this kind of task manually is time consuming and impossible to achieve in dynamic terrai...

  Bimorph piezoelectric cantilevered (BPC) actuators have recently received a great deal of attention in a variety of micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) applications. Dynamic modeling of such actuators needs to be improved in order to enhance the control performance. Previous works have usually taken transv...

Constructing gene circuits that satisfy quantitative performance criteria has been a long-standing challenge in synthetic biology. Here, we show a strategy for optimizing a complex three-gene circuit, a novel proportional miRNA biosensor, using predictive modeling to initiate a search in the phase space of sensor genetic composition. We generate a library of sensor circuits using diverse geneti...

This chapter describes the state-of-the-art techniques for constructing photo-realistic three dimensional models of physical objects using range and intensity images. In general, construction of such models entails four steps: First, a range sensor must be used to acquire the geometric shape of the exterior of the object. Objects of complex shape may require a large number of range images viewe...
