Short-Term Forecasting of Wake-Induced Fluctuations in Offshore Wind Farms

The increasing share of offshore wind energy traded at the spot market requires short term wind direction forecasts to determine wake losses and increased power fluctuations due to multiple wakes in certain wind directions. The information on potential pow ...

Structural response of French offshore heritage lighthouses

Emmanuel Denarié

Offshore lighthouses are a remarkable historical heritage often over 100 years old. The management of their ageing is a challenge and requires a thorough understanding of their structural response under wave loading. With this aim in view, the dynamic resp ...

Exergy and environmental analysis of black liquor upgraded gasification in an integrated kraft pulp and ammonia production plant

Daniel Alexander Florez Orrego, Meire Ellen Gorete Ribeiro Domingos

Some byproducts of the Kraft pulp mills, such as the black liquor (1.4 t/t ADpulp, 15% solids), still contain more than half of the exergy content of the total wood fed to the digester. This residue represents a key supply of renewable energy to the pulp a ...

Triboelectric effect to harness fluid flow energy

Danick Briand, Rubaiyet Iftekharul Haque, Amr Yehia Hussien Mahmoud Arafat

We are reporting energy scavenging from fluid flows inside tubular structures using triboelectric effects. Two separate designs of triboelectric generators are proposed. A tubular design that uses liquid-solid interaction mechanism for water, and freestand ...

Extraordinary wave dynamics in time-Floquet acoustic systems

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Theodoros Koutserimpas

We discuss our recent research advances about wave control and manipulation using periodic temporalmodulation of a system’s properties. By using the unique properties of time-Floquet systems, we constructacoustic metamaterials with extreme effective proper ...

Multi-level high-voltage power supply for dea application

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Morgan Almanza, Lucas Pniak, Lucas Depreux

In order to reap the benefits of Dielectric Elastomer Actuator (DEA) high energy density, the electronics powering the actuator should be as small as possible. Knowing that only a small fraction of the energy delivered to DEAs is effectively converted into ...

Multi-Objective Wind Farm Layout Optimization with unconstrained Area Shape

Fernando Porté Agel, Nicolas Otto Kirchner Bossi

It is well known that turbine wakes are responsible for considerable power losses in a wind farm. In the last two decades Wind Farm Layout Optimization (WFLO) has been extendedly used to model the minimization of such wake effects in the attempt to maximiz ...

Antidunes on steep slopes: variability of wave geometry and migration celerity

Christophe Ancey, Ivan Pascal

As a result of interactions between streamflow andsediment, riverbeds are seldom smooth, but depending onhydraulic and sediment transport conditions, they exhibitbedforms, which grow and migrate over time (upstreamor downstream). Morphology migration may e ...

An Energy Efficient Power Converter for Zero Power Wearable Devices

Milad Ataei Ashtiani

Early diagnosis of Alzheimer's and epilepsy requires monitoring a subject's development of symptoms through electroencephalography (EEG) signals over long periods. Wearable devices enable convenient monitoring of biosignals, unlike complex and costly hospi ...

Experimental Study of Tsunami-Like Waves Generated with a Vertical Release Technique on Dry and Wet Beds

Anton Schleiss, Michael Pfister, Davide Wüthrich, Ioan Nistor

Tsunamis, impulse waves, and dam failures are disasters that challenge humanity, often leading to massive casualties and extreme economic losses. The highly unsteady flow conditions generated by such events are often in the form of turbulent bores. The pur ...
