Climate change is one of the greatest challenges facing the building sector and rural areas in particular should be prioritised due to their special characteristics. In this work, ways to adapt rural residential buildings ...

The measurement of fast voltage and current transients of Silicon Carbide (SiC) devices requires high bandwidth (BW) probes. Commercially available voltage and current probes can be expensive, and, in addition, the delay ...

In transportation applications, filling high pressurised hydrogen tanks within a few minutes implies a fast and large temperature increase that can compromise the structural integrity of the storage system and the safety ...

This paper presents the first comparative study evaluating towing and onsite replacement strategies for heavy maintenance of floating offshore wind (FOW) turbines. The towing maintenance strategy is characterised by a ...

With an increasing emphasis on energy efficiency and the widespread adoption of Wide-Band-Gap (WBG) devices, understanding and mitigating EMI is crucial for the reliability and performance of electric drives. This research ...

Prediction of Litz wire losses is a challenging endeavor in the design of high-frequency transformers. Although many analytical approaches of varying complexity can be found in the literature, classical 1-D-based models ...

We investigate the evolution of convective instability in a LiBr-water binary mixture, driven by thermal and solutal Marangoni stresses, through numerical simulations. A small perturbation in absorption at the surface ...

From the perspectives of security, durability, and proper operation, effective temperature control via thermal management systems (TMSs) on lithium-ion batteries is crucial for electric vehicle use. In this regard, a novel ...

Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology has emerged as a promising solution for enhancing the integration of electric vehicles (EVs) into the electric grid, offering benefits, such as distributed energy resource (DER) integration, ...

Nickel-based superalloys are widely employed to manufacture aero-engine turbines due to their high mechanical strength and resistance to corrosion and creep. Vacuum Induction Melting (VIM) is a suitable manufacturing ...
