Wind farm power density optimization according to the area size using a novel self-adaptive genetic algorithm

Fernando Porté Agel, Nicolas Otto Kirchner Bossi

This work studies the power density (PD) optimization in wind farms, and its sensitivity to the available area size. A novel genetic algorithm (PDGA) is introduced, which optimizes PD and the turbine layout, by self-adapting to the PD and to the solutions ...

Overflow-free compute memories for edge AI acceleration

David Atienza Alonso, Giovanni Ansaloni, Alexandre Sébastien Julien Levisse, Marco Antonio Rios, Flavio Ponzina

Compute memories are memory arrays augmented with dedicated logic to support arithmetic. They support the efficient execution of data-centric computing patterns, such as those characterizing Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms. These architectures can ...

Shared Intelligence for Robot Teleoperation via BMI

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Luca Tonin

This article proposes a novel shared intelligence system for brain-machine interface (BMI) teleoperated mobile robots where user's intention and robot's intelligence are concurrent elements equally participating in the decision process. We designed the sys ...

Thermal-hydraulic analysis of alternative cable-in-conduit conductors for the European DEMO hybrid central solenoid

Kamil Sedlák, Nikolay Bykovskiy, Roberto Guarino

A hybrid design of the Central Solenoid is under study within the conceptual design phase of the European DEMO fusion reactor. It is based on HTS conductors in the innermost high-field layers, and Nb3Sn and NbTi conductors for field values below 15 T. Sinc ...

X-Shell Pavilion: A Deployable Elastic Rod Structure

Mark Pauly, Florin Isvoranu, Tian Chen, Francis Julian Panetta, Etienne Bouleau

We present the X-Shell pavilion, a lightweight structure composed of elastic beam elements joined in a special layout that allows easy on-site deployment. The structure’s undeployed assembly configuration lies mostly flat and is easy to build, consisting o ...

Design of Load-Bearing Systems for Open-Ended Downstream Reuse

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet

This paper discusses the design of load-bearing systems for buildings with regard to their current lack of open-ended reusability. The reason for dismantling load-bearing systems today tends to be less related to material degradation than to a loss of func ...

A Grammar of Muqarnas: Drawings of the Alhambra by Jones and Goury (1834-1845)

Ignacio Ferrer Perez-Blanco

The muqarnas of the Nasrid Alhambra stand out as one of the most singular architectural episodes o f Medieval Islamic art due to their sophisticated three-dimensional construction, whose layout remains little known. In 1834 and 1837, the architects Owen Jo ...

Energy performance and occupancy-based analysis of visual and thermal comfort for transmittance level and layout variations of semi-transparent photovoltaics

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Giorgia Chinazzo, Giuseppe Peronato

This paper investigates the impact of transmittance level and layout variations of semi-transparent photovoltaics (STPV) on both energy performance and occupancy-based visual and thermal comfort, simulating a reference office with a fully south-oriented gl ...

A Review of Evaluation, Optimization and Synthesis of Energy Systems: Methodology and Application to Thermal Power Plants

François Maréchal, Shivom Sharma, Ligang Wang, Alberto Mian, Tzu-En Lin

To reach optimal/better conceptual designs of energy systems, key design variables should be optimized/adapted with system layouts, which may contribute significantly to system improvement. Layout improvement can be proposed by combining system analysis wi ...

Encapsulating Online Labs in Structured Learning Spaces

Denis Gillet, Juan Carlos Farah

This paper builds on the results of European research projects to support STEM education with online labs. We present Integrated Interaction Apps as a means to support learning activities centered on online labs. We then show how these apps, labs and other ...
