Dynamics of the cavitation precessing vortex rope for Francis turbines at part load operating conditions

Arthur Tristan Favrel

The massive penetration of the existing electrical grid by renewable energy sources requires a continuous extension of the operating range of hydroelectric powerplants, which can lead to cavitation flow instabilities inducing undesirable mechanical vibrati ...

Small-Scale Variability of the Raindrop Size Distribution and Its Effect on Areal Rainfall Retrieval

Alexis Berne, Timothy Hugh Raupach

The drop size distribution (DSD) describes the microstructure of liquid precipitation. The high variability of the DSD reflects the variety of microphysical processes controlling raindrop properties and affects the retrieval of rainfall. An analysis of the ...

On the Symbiosis of People and Building

Sytse de Maat

Controversies continue to exist between architects and the public about what is a good building. High-style modern architecture is often disliked by the public. Moreover, in everyday life people blame the architect for everything they find impractical in a ...

Scaling unreinforced masonry for reduced-scale seismic testing

Katrin Beyer, Sarah Petry

When testing multi-storey structures, most testing facilities require the testing of a reduced-scale model. A literature review on tests of scaled masonry structural components revealed that scaling of masonry was rather challenging and often significant d ...

Prediction and validation of sidesway collapse of two scale models of a 4-story steel moment frame

Dimitrios Lignos

A research program is summarized in which collapse of a steel frame structure is predicted numerically and the accuracy of prediction is validated experimentally through earthquake simulator tests of two 1:8 scale models of a 4-story code-compliant prototy ...

Prediction of a Francis turbine prototype full load instability from investigations on the reduced scale model

François Avellan, Pierre Maruzewski, Sébastien Alligné

The growing development of renewable energies combined with the process of privatization, lead to a change of economical energy market strategies. nstantaneous pricings of electricity as a function of demand or predictions, induces profitable peak producti ...

SURFACE ROUGHNESS IMPACT ON FRANCIS TURBINE PERFORMANCES AND PREDICTION OF EFFICIENCY STEP UP

François Avellan, Pierre Maruzewski, Vlad Hasmatuchi, Henri-Pascal Mombelli

In the process of turbine modernizations, the investigation of the influences of water passage roughness on radial flow machine performance is crucial and validates the efficiency step up between reduced scale model and prototype. This study presents the s ...

Using Augmentations as Bridges from Concrete to Abstract Representations

Pierre Dillenbourg, Patrick Jermann, Guillaume Zufferey

We describe a pedagogical approach supporting the acquisition of abstraction skills by apprentices in logistics. Apprentices start with a concrete representation in the form of a small-scale model which aims at engaging them in learning activities. Multipl ...
