Summary
Applying forward-backward stochastic differential equations to optimisation. This project intends to develop new ways to solve optimisation problems that are currently difficult to solve because of their complexity and size. In particular, forward–backward stochastic differential equations (FBSDEs) are a new technique that is showing ways to solve problems for which there is yet to be a solution. This project's focus will be on problems that cannot use existing software because the decision-maki ....Applying forward-backward stochastic differential equations to optimisation. This project intends to develop new ways to solve optimisation problems that are currently difficult to solve because of their complexity and size. In particular, forward–backward stochastic differential equations (FBSDEs) are a new technique that is showing ways to solve problems for which there is yet to be a solution. This project's focus will be on problems that cannot use existing software because the decision-making processes require intensive consideration of all possible outcomes in the modelled environment. In comparison to previous optimisation methods, the FBSDE approach is easier to work with and much more informative. The project's main potential applications are multiplayer games with mean-field interaction and financial markets with partial information.Read moreRead less

Summary
Interface engineering of 2D materials for advanced battery application. The fast-growing energy storage market demands new devices with both high energy and power density. This project aims to understand and then engineering electrode-electrolyte interfaces using novel two-dimensional (2D) materials to achieve accelerated ion transport and enhanced surface redox reactions. Advanced in-situ and ex-situ characterization tools, including X-ray scattering, neutron scattering, and terahertz time-doma ....Interface engineering of 2D materials for advanced battery application. The fast-growing energy storage market demands new devices with both high energy and power density. This project aims to understand and then engineering electrode-electrolyte interfaces using novel two-dimensional (2D) materials to achieve accelerated ion transport and enhanced surface redox reactions. Advanced in-situ and ex-situ characterization tools, including X-ray scattering, neutron scattering, and terahertz time-domain spectroscopy, will be employed to study energy storage mechanisms. Novel solid-state batteries will be demonstrated based on well-designed electrodes using 2D materials. This project will boost the standing of Australia in the global competition of developing more efficient energy storage devices. Read moreRead less

Summary
Missing link in the chain: Gateway to the Satellite-Internet Constellations. This project aims to develop affordable and compact, reconfigurable antenna systems for satellite-terminals. With unprecedented performance, the wide bandwidth of operation, and low cost of production, the resulting antenna systems will act as the ‘enabling’ chip in providing internet connectivity to millions of people, who are unconnected or poorly connected at present. High-speed internet is not a reality outside dens ....Missing link in the chain: Gateway to the Satellite-Internet Constellations. This project aims to develop affordable and compact, reconfigurable antenna systems for satellite-terminals. With unprecedented performance, the wide bandwidth of operation, and low cost of production, the resulting antenna systems will act as the ‘enabling’ chip in providing internet connectivity to millions of people, who are unconnected or poorly connected at present. High-speed internet is not a reality outside densely populated areas, even today. The outcomes will close the digital divide, increase Australia’s economic and intellectual standing internationally, generate socio-economic benefits by empowering regional populations, increase the economic viability and remote-jobs outside metropolitan cities, and develop tourism.Read moreRead less
