Abstract: Model-predictive control (MPC) has shown its strong potential in maximizing energy extraction for wave-energy converters (WECs) while handling hard constraints. However, the computational demand is known to be a primary ...

Abstract: Bifurcated fractures are the basic units of fracture networks. In this paper, a bifurcated fracture model is designed using Fluent software to characterize the fluid flow in a fracture network. The characterization of water ...
