Life cycle impact assessment indicators are integrated for studying the process integration of renewable resources and CO2 capture and storage (CCS) in power plants. Besides the expected reduction in global warming potential (GWP), CCS induces energy and c ...
Water shortages and climate change are worldwide issues. Reduction in water leakage in distribution networks as well as the associated energy saving and environmental impacts have recently received increased attention by scientists and water industries. Pr ...
In China, Japan and Europe circular economy concepts are being adopted as a mechanism for utilising resources to support long term economic, social and environmental benefit. Australia’s unique economic environment will affect the way circular economy conc ...
This article presents the analysis of the three-dimensional forces applied by a slotless Lorentz-type fully-active magnetic bearing actuator. An analytical model is presented for defining the forces applied by every radial and axial bearing of the actuator ...
Potential geometrical deviations in bump foil bearings due to manufacturing uncertainty can have significant effects on both the local stiffness and clearance, and hence, affecting the overall bearing performance. The manufacturing uncertainty of bump type ...
Simulated present and future air quality is compared for the years 2006-2010 and 2048-2052 over the contiguous United States (CONUS) using the Community Multi-scale Air Quality (CMAQ) model. Regionally downscaled present and future climate results are deve ...
Air quality and climate change are inexorably linked from theiremission sources to their impacts on climate, human health, andecosystems, including agriculture. However, in globalenvironmental change and sustainability policies the linkbetween air quality ...
The goal of reducing carbon fuel and thereby saving energy will increase the use of lake water for heating and cooling of riparian infrastructures. This raises the question of which heat use designs meet the ecological and technical requirements for lakes, ...
This paper proposes the concept of FlexPCB(flexible Printed Circuit Board) conductive structure for electrodynamic bearings. It has three main advantages: easy "printing" of considerably thin conductive wires, resulting in potential reduction in stray eddy ...
Although gas-lubricated herringbone grooved journal bearings (HGJB) are known for high rotordynamic stability thresholds, small clearance to diameter ratios are required for stable rotor operation. Tight clearances not only increase bearing losses but also ...
