Concurrent solar generation of hydrogen and CO through photoelectrochemical (PEC) water and CO2 electrolysis, and the subsequent use of the product gas mixture in conventional Fischer-Tropsch processes, has the potential to provide a flexible pathway for d ...
A semi-continuous formulation is introduced for finding bases that minimise the error in a specific output functional of a reduced-order model. The formulation is advantageous in that it can be used with arbitrary reference data and can be easily applied t ...
With preparation of Hi-Lumi LHC fully underway, and the FCC machines under study, accelerators will reach unprecedented energies and along with it very large amount of synchrotron radiation (SR). This will desorb photoelectrons and molecules from accelerat ...
The increasing penetration of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) at the low and medium-voltage levels is determining major changes in the operational procedures of distribution networks (DNs) that are evolving from passive to active power grids. Such evol ...
The current provisions for the braking force in the Eurocodes are much more demanding than previously enforced national codes from most European countries. Hence, safety assessments of existing bridges may show a lack of compliance with the new safety requ ...
Traditional electric power grids are currently undergoing fundamental changes: Representative examples are the increase in the penetration of volatile and decentralized renewable-energy sources and the emerging distributed energy-storage systems. These cha ...
In this paper, we consider decoding of loss tolerant data encoded by network coding and transmitted over error-prone networks. Intermediate network nodes typically perform the random linear network coding in a Galois field and a Gaussian elimination is use ...
The analysis of energy system transitions is mainly affected by a socio-technical system (STS) understanding, focussing on the co-evolvement of societal and technical changes. However, energy systems are highly dependent on and characterised by ecological ...
A sharp upper bound on the probability of a random vector falling outside a polytope, based solely on the first and second moments of its distribution, can be computed efficiently using semidefinite programming. However, this Chebyshev-type bound tends to ...
Quadrupedal robots have been a field of interest the last few years, with many new maturing platforms. Many of these projects have in common the use of state of the art actuation and sensing, and therefore are able to handle difficult locomotion tasks very ...
