Wing Flutter Suppression via Distributed Electric Propulsion

O Criador:: Bamberger, Joshua
Abstract:: This research aims to demonstrate the viability of actively controlled distributed-electric propulsion as a method to postpone flutter in high aspect-ratio elastic wings. A semi-wing on a spring mount with two propellers powered by electric motors, mounted at alternate pitch angles relative to the chord line, was used as the...

Wind turbulence input model for horizontal axis wind turbines

O Criador:: Lin, Shuh-ren
Abstract:: In order to estimate wind turbine residL2;characteristics in the presence of atmospheric turbulence, the important atmospheric sources for the force excitations felt by the wind turbine system must be identified and characterized. The goal of this research is to develop the wind turbulence input model for horizontal axis wind turbines....

Wind tunnel simulation and field measurements of flow over a coastal headland

O Criador:: Brownlow, Roger West
Abstract:: An experimental study was made of the average and turbulent wind characteristics of the flow over a model of a coastal headland. The scale of the model was 300:1, corresponding to a prototype size of 500 m. The data for validation of the model study was obtained from instruments mounted...

Wave Energy From Idea, to Concept, to Converter: Structuring Methods for Design and Evaluation of Wave Energy Devices

O Criador:: Trueworthy, Ali May
Abstract:: The amount of energy we use and the ways that we get that energy sit on the edge of dramatic change as the carbon budget which can keep the planet under 1.5C of global average temperature increase gets smaller (Allen, 2018). In response, we continue to research and develop renewable...

Wave Energy Converter Array Optimization : Array Economic Analysis and Preliminary Results of a Genetic Algorithm Approach Introducing Cost Factors

O Criador:: Sharp, Christopher J.
Abstract:: With the need to integrate renewable energy sources into the current energy portfolio and the proximity of many population centers to an ocean coastline, it is pressing that marine energy systems, specifically wave energy converters (WECs), are evaluated as potential solutions for meeting energy needs. In order to best understand...

Wave Energy Converter Array Optimization : Algorithm Development and Investigation of Layout Design Influences

O Criador:: Sharp, Christopher J.
Abstract:: Realizing the vast amount of energy available in ocean waves, an industry has emerged that is progressing towards the deployment of grid–connected wave energy converters. Likely to be deployed in arrays, a challenge to the wave energy industry is maximizing the energy production of such arrays. We have been developing...

Water-gas reaction and equilibrium constant in an internal combustion engine

O Criador:: Gregory, Edward Mortimer
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Water treatment technologies for the developing world

O Criador:: Burleson, Grace Ellen
Abstract:: The intent of this report is to provide a brief description of water quality issues in Nicaragua, Uganda and Bangladesh, and the technologies available to address these issues. The water quality parameters considered include: bacterial contamination, heavy metals and arsenic, pesticides and industrious chemicals, turbidity, radiological characteristics, and taste and...

Water table analogue for compressible flow studies

O Criador:: Pouderoux, Pierre
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Vortical Structures in Transition to Turbulence through Randomly Packed Porous Media: Scale, Energy, and Mixing Characteristics

O Criador:: Mohammadi Ziazi, Reza
Abstract:: Vortical structures are the driving mechanism of transition to turbulence in porous media requiring adequately resolved observations along with analysis of the scale and energy of ﬂow within the pores. Of speciﬁc interest is to understand the vortex dynamics, energy, and turbulent mixing and transport properties in the scale of...
