On the prediction of the induced damage by the start-up sequence of Francis turbines: On operational resilience framework

Mario Paolone, Christophe Nicolet, Elena Vagnoni, Martin Seydoux

The number of transient operations in hydraulic machinery connected to power grid, notably start-ups and shut-downs, has observed a substantial increase in recent decades, primarily driven by the global shift toward intermittent renewable energy sources. S ...

Liquid film instability of an internally coated horizontal tube

François Gallaire, Edouard Boujo, Yves-Marie François Ducimetière, Shahab Eghbali

We study numerically and theoretically the gravity-driven flow of a viscous liquid film coating the inner side of a horizontal cylindrical tube and surrounding a shear-free dynamically inert gaseous core. The liquid-gas interface is prone to the Rayleigh-P ...

Improved Cell-Free Transcription-Translation Reactions in Microfluidic Chemostats Augmented with Hydrogel Membranes for Continuous Small Molecule Dialysis

Sebastian Maerkl, Laura Sophie Grasemann, Barbora Lavickova

Increasing the protein production capacity of the PURE cell-free transcription-translation (TX-TL) system will be key to implementing complex synthetic biological circuits, and to establishing a fully self-regenerating system as a basis for the development ...

Numerical and experimental study of the dynamic thermal resistance of ventilated air-spaces behind passive and active façades

Dolaana Khovalyg, Mohammad Rahiminejad

The variation of the thermo-hydrodynamic behavior of the airflow in the ventilated cavity behind external claddings in a wall structure could potentially affect the overall thermal resistance of the entire structure. Although the impact of an enclosed air- ...

Time-Resolved Spectroscopy of Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) Catalysts under Transient Conditions

Rob Jeremiah G. Nuguid

Understanding the mechanisms behind chemical transformations is key to developing improved catalytic systems. To this end, operando spectroscopy has contributed significantly to the advancement of our molecular view of many reactions at the heart of the ch ...

Investigating active phase loss from supported ruthenium catalysts during supercritical water gasification

Oliver Kröcher, Frédéric Vogel, Mohamed Tarik, David Baudouin

Active phase loss mechanisms from Ru/AC catalysts were studied in continuous supercritical water gasification (SCWG) for the first time by analysing the Ru content in process water with low limit-of-detection time-resolved ICP-MS. Ru loss was investigated ...

On Existence of Equilibria, Voltage Balancing, and Current Sharing in Consensus-Based DC Microgrids

Giancarlo Ferrari Trecate, Pulkit Nahata

This work presents new secondary regulators for current sharing and voltage balancing in DC microgrids, composed of distributed generation units, dynamic RLC lines, and nonlinear ZIP (constant impedance, constant current, and constant power) loads. The pro ...

Discrete-time regional pole-placement using convex approximations: Theory and application to a boost converter

Emilio Maddalena

The problem of allocating the closed-loop poles of linear systems in specific regions of the complex plane defined by discrete time-domain requirements is addressed. The resulting non-convex set is inner-approximated by a convex region described with linea ...

A New Time-Varying Feedback RISE Control of PKMs: Theory and Application

Mohamed Bouri

In this paper, we propose a novel time-varying feedback control strategy based on the Robust Integral of the Sign of the Error (RISE). The main motivation is to enhance the tracking performance of RISE controller at high dynamic operating conditions. RISE ...

Picture of the wet electron: a localized transient state in liquid water

Alfredo Pasquarello, Francesco Ambrosio, Michele Pizzochero

A transient state of the excess electron in liquid water preceding the development of the solvation shell, the so-called wet electron, has been invoked to explain spectroscopic observations, but its binding energy and atomic structure have remained highly ...
