We experimentally demonstrate capacity gains of up to 23% under electrical supply power constraints in a long-haul optical fiber cable by optimizing the gain shaping filters using neural networks. ...
Due to restricted weight and space budget on floating production, storage and offloading units (FPSO), the offshore utility systems have been limited to low-efficiency energy technologies. Moreover, owing to time-varying energy demands of the FPSOs, the ex ...
The tension-tension fatigue behavior of ductile adhesively-bonded double-lap FRP joints was experimentally investigated. An acrylic adhesive, which was in the rubbery state at ambient temperature, provided the joint ductility. The fatigue degradation of th ...
Relying on the power flexibility of distributed energy resources (DERs) located in an active distribution network (ADN), this ADN will be able to provide power flexibility to the upper-layer grid at their point of common coupling (PCC). The power flexibili ...
Even though advanced power generation systems offer higher efficiencies than simpler gas turbines, severe area and weight restrictions keep on impeding their widespread implementation in offshore petroleum industry. If those restrictions could be resolved, ...
Wind energy has played a major role in the development of our society since 5000 BC when the first sail boats traveled the Nile River. Wind technology continued to advance with the invention of wind-powered pumps and mills in China and the Middle East as e ...
Soft switching in dual-active-bridge (DAB) converters enables their efficient operation at high frequencies, where the reduction in the size of magnetic components could result in ultra-high power densities. Nonetheless, losing soft-switching at high frequ ...
