The constant energy consumption and world-wide demography expansion add to the potential risks of ecological and human disaster associated with global warming. This makes it a necessity to develop renewable energy technologies such as photovoltaic energy. ...
We implement W-function approximation scheme described by Barry et al. A range of tests of the approximations is included so that the code can be assessed on any given machine. Users can calculate W(x) by specifying x itself or by specifying an offset from ...
The advantages and limitations of photovoltaic solar modules for energy generation are reviewed with their operation principles and physical efficiency limits. Although the main materials currently used or investigated and the associated fabrication techno ...
This paper, shows that for the FFT-hash function proposed by Schnorr (1992), finding a collision requires about 224 computations of the basic FFT function. This can be done in few hours on SUN4-workstation. The proposed FFT hash-function can be ...
Most recent approaches to monocular non-rigid 3D shape recovery rely on exploiting point correspondences and work best when the whole surface is well-textured. The alternative is to rely either on contours or shading information, which has only been demons ...
Commercial large-area solar simulators are principally in the form of Xenon flashers, which intrinsically have a short flash duration time, typically 100 ms at low spectrum quality and 10 ms at high spectrum quality. This implies measurement time constrain ...
Among the century’s main challenges, climate change and the need for energy sources diversification are of great importance. In this context, renewable energies undoubtedly have an important role to play. Photovoltaic (PV) electricity is especially well su ...
