The Southern African Development Community (SADC) has evolved in 1992 from the former Southern African Development Coordination Conference (SADCC) existing since 1980. The SADC aims at regional integration, sustainable growth and alleviation of poverty in ...
In Feburary 2008, the oil price easily exceeded $ 100 per barrel due to the weak US dollar and the imbalance between the increasing demands and deficient supplies. People are paying more and more attention to seek for alternative energy sources that would ...
Computer modelling at the urban scale is an increasingly vibrant area of research activity which aims to support designers to optimise the performance of new and existing urban developments. But the parameter space of an urban development is infinitely lar ...
High-head storage hydropower plants operate their turbines during periods of high energy demand. The starting and stopping of turbines results in rapid fluctuations of discharge and water levels in rivers called hydropeaking, which are unfavourable from an ...
Actuation systems for few cubic millimeter sized mobile autonomous robots are subject to severe constraints in terms of e.g. size, fabrication or power consumption. Also the onboard electronics has limited performance due to both size and power restriction ...
KS 0 KS 0 production in two-photon collisions has been studied using a 397.6 fb-1 data sample collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB e+ e- collider. For the first time the cross sections are measured in the two-photon center-of-mass energy range bet ...
The paper deals with a microgrid test facility, settled at the CESI RICERCA laboratories, equipped with various distributed energy resources (DERs) and connected to a LV network. The operation of such a microgrid is supervised by a central automatic microg ...
The highway traffic size and loads have been continuously increasing all over Europe. At the same time, the expectations of users have been growing. They need more safe, durable and comfortable highway surfaces which make their trips low-cost and do not ac ...
e consider an estimation network of many distributed sensors, where each senor takes a noisy measurement of some unknown parameter. Due to energy limitation, the network selects only a subset of sensors for data fusion as long as the distortion is tolerabl ...
As energy plays a central role in the world development, it represents as well a major challenge for sustainable development. Today, more than 80% of the primary energy consumption is based on fossil fuels and the share is likely to remain high in the futu ...
