Abstract: The Guidelines for the Assessment of Photovoltaic Plants provided by the Joint Research Centre (JRC) and the International Standard IEC 61724 recommend procedures for the analysis of monitored ...

Abstract: The criteria currently employed for the design of railway infrastructure on ballasted track are based on the elements of the superstructure, traffic, and bearing capacity of the subgrade. In high-speed railway, the elements ...

Abstract: Hydrodynamic behavior of the different sand-grain-size fractions, transport paths, and advection speed were studied by two fluorescent tracer experiments at Regla Beach, in Chipiona, SW Spain. Sand tracers, with two different ...

Abstract: A real-time system for monitoring the dry weight contained in the hopper of a given dredge has been both designed and tested. Among the system’s most outstanding features, the following may be mentioned: it is of economical ...

Abstract: In the first part of this three-paper-series, time-resolved particle image velocimetry (TR-PIV) is performed in the transonic cascade to elucidate the shock-boundary layer interaction process and to provide comparative ...

Abstract: Abstract. The design of efficient transonic fan and compressor airfoils is still a major challenge. Efficiency in this context means the lowest possible losses and a wide, stable operating range. The challenge is mainly ...
