Reaching Thermal Comfort Zone Limits for Resilient Building Operation: A Winter Case Study for Offices

Dolaana Khovalyg, Verena Marie Barthelmes, Arnab Chatterjee

A specific range of acceptable indoor thermal conditions is stipulated by building performance standards to assure minimum dissatisfaction of occupants. Thus, the operation of buildings in practice tends to follow a cautious approach by setting the indoor ...

Nonlinear evolution of the centrifugal instability using a semilinear model

François Gallaire, Eunok Yim

We study the nonlinear evolution of the axisymmetric centrifugal instability developing on a columnar anticyclone with a Gaussian angular velocity using a semilinear approach. The model consists of two coupled equations: one for the linear evolution of the ...

Stability Criterion for the Centrifugal Instability of Surface Intensified Anticyclones

Eunok Yim

We investigate the linear stability of intense baroclinic anticyclones, with a particular focus on the centrifugal (inertial) instability. Various vertical and radial velocity profiles are studied. The vertical profiles are such that the velocity is maximu ...

Statistical analysis of optimal energy and security controls under different sources of uncertainties

Mokhtar Bozorg, Omid Alizadeh Mousavi

The management of uncertainties is a challenging task for reliable and secure operation of power systems. The uncertainties come from multiple sources, including the forecast errors of wind power and load, the forced outage of generating units, loss of tra ...

Génération multi-sites de variables météorologiques horaires en zone alpine

Abdelkader Mezghani

Water resources management and hydrological risks are based, to a large extent, on our competence to generate relevant hydrological scenarios under present and future climatic situations. In alpine areas, characterized by highly complex topography, the ava ...

A combined downscaling-disaggregation weather generator for stochastic generation of multisite hourly weather variables over complex terrain: Development and multi-scale validation for the Upper Rhone River basin

Abdelkader Mezghani

This paper presents a combined downscaling and disaggregation weather generator developed for multisite generation of hourly precipitation and temperature time series over complex terrain. Daily regional weather variables are first generated from Generaliz ...

Hydrological forecasting model in Colombia: application to the Magdalena River

André Musy, Bettina Schaefli, Richard Metzger

The development of a hydrological forecasting model is conditioned by the available data collected in the entire hydrological catchment for which discharge has to be predicted. The forecast quality not only depends on the available historical data but also ...

Dynamical properties of vortical structures on the beta-plane

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven

The long-time evolution of monopolar and dipolar vortices influenced by the large-scale gradient of the ambient potential vorticity (the beta-effect) is studied by direct numerical solutions of the equivalent barotropic quasi-geostrophic equation. Translat ...
