Design of a Flexure-Based Flywheel for the Storage of Angular Momentum and Kinetic Energy
Simon Nessim Henein, Florent Cosandier, Hubert Pierre-Marie Benoît Schneegans, Patrick Robert Flückiger
The flywheel is a widespread mechanical component used for the storage of kinetic energy and angular momentum. It typically consists of cylindrical inertia rotating about its axis on rolling bearings, which involves undesired friction, lubrication, and wea ...
2024Applying the Principal Component Analysis for a deeper understanding of the groundwater system: case study of the Bacchiglione Basin (Veneto, Italy)
In hydrogeology, it is often difficult to fully understand the hydraulic factors affecting the recharge of groundwater systems. Particularly, at a regional scale, the groundwater system can have different drivers depending on the considered area, i.e., soi ...
PAGEPRESS PUBL2022Impacts of climate change on Swiss alluvial aquifers - A quantitative forecast focused on natural and artificial groundwater recharge by surface water infiltration
The sensitivity of future groundwater recharge and temperature development was investigated for three alluvial aquifers in the urban agglomeration of the city of Basel, Switzerland. For selected climate projections groundwater recharge and the associated t ...
ELSEVIER2022Climate change effects on groundwater recharge and temperatures in Swiss alluvial aquifers
Climate change will have both quantitative and qualitative effects on groundwater resources. These impacts differ for aquifers in solid and unconsolidated rock, in urban or rural locations, and in the principal processes of groundwater recharge. Having kno ...
2021Effects of aquifer geometry on seawater intrusion in annulus segment island aquifers
David Andrew Barry, Zhaoyang Luo
Seawater intrusion in island aquifers was considered analytically, specifically for annulus segment aquifers (ASAs), i.e., aquifers that (in plan) have the shape of an annulus segment. Based on the Ghijben–Herzberg and hillslope-storage Boussinesq equation ...
2021Assessing the long-term sustainability of the groundwater resources in the Bacchiglione basin (Veneto, Italy) with the Mann-Kendall test: suggestions for higher reliability
The social, economic, and ecological importance of the aquifer system within the Bacchiglione basin (Veneto, IT) is noteworthy, and there is considerable disagreement among previous studies over its sustainable use. Investigating the long-term quantitative ...
PAGEPRESS PUBL2021Groundwater recharge in the Bekaa : insights for enhanced water management
water scarcity, millions of people are subject to insufficient access to safe drinking water and sanitation services in Lebanon. Too often, water scarcity is interpreted as a natural phenomena or the result of technical failures, neglecting the fact that i ...
2021Temperature of artificial freshwater recharge significantly affects salinity distributions in coastal confined aquifers
Artificial freshwater recharge is commonly used to mitigate seawater intrusion and restore salinized aquifers in coastal zones. While the temperature of recharged freshwater often differs from that of aquifers, effects of temperature differences on water f ...
2021Multi-well capture zones in strip-shaped aquifers
David Andrew Barry, Setareh Nagheli
Capture zone equations for a multi-well system in strip-shaped confined and unconfined aquifers with and without regional flow are presented. The aquifer is limited by two parallel boundaries that are either no flow (barrier) or inflow (variable head) so t ...
PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE2020Capture zone models of a multi-well system in aquifers bounded with regular and irregular inflow boundaries
David Andrew Barry, Setareh Nagheli
Being bounded by hydrological (inflow and barrier) boundaries, natural aquifers have regular/irregular shapes. Here, we consider aquifers bounded by segmental inflow (variable head) boundaries in which water is extracted/injected by a multi-well system. St ...
