Pitch Angle Misalignment Correction Based on Benchmarking and Laser Scanner Measurement in Wind Farms
(MDPI, 2018-12-01)
In addition to human error, manufacturing tolerances for blades and hubs cause pitch angle misalignment in wind turbines. As a consequence, a significant number of turbines used by existing wind farms experience power ...
Evaluating Equity and Inclusion in Access toWater and Sanitation for Persons Living with HIV/AIDS in Wukro, Ethiopia
(MDPI, 2018-09)
For more than a decade, foreign aid-supported water interventions focusing on an increase in household private connections have been implemented in the small urban center of Wukro. However, little has been investigated ...
The Influence of the Chamber Configuration on the Hydrodynamic Efficiency of Oscillating Water Column Devices
(MDPI, 2020-09-26)
Based on the two-dimensional linear wave theory, the effects of the front wall thickness and the bottom profile of an Oscillating Water Column (OWC) device on its efficiency were analyzed. Using the potential flow approach, ...
Catalyst Deactivation And Regeneration Processes In Biogas Tri-Reforming Process. The Effect Of Hydrogen Sulfide Addition
(MDPI AG, 2018-01-09)
This work studies Ni-based catalyst deactivation and regeneration processes in the presence of H2S under a biogas tri-reforming process for hydrogen production, which is an energy vector of great interest. 25 ppm of hydrogen ...

Downscaling of surface moisture flux and precipitation in the Ebro Valley (Spain) using analogues and analogues followed by random forests and multiple linear regression
(Copernicus Gesellschaft, 2011)
In this paper, reanalysis fields from the ECMWF have been statistically downscaled to predict from large-scale atmospheric fields, surface moisture flux and daily precipitation at two observatories (Zaragoza and Tortosa, ...
Historical Evolution of theWave Resource and Energy Production off the Chilean Coast over the 20th Century
(MDPI, 2018-09)
The wave energy resource in the Chilean coast shows particularly profitable characteristics for wave energy production, with relatively high mean wave power and low inter-annual resource variability. This combination is ...
Harmonized evaluation of daily precipitation downscaled using SDSM and WRF+WRFDA models over the Iberian Peninsula
(Springer, 2019-08)
There have been numerous statistical and dynamical downscaling model comparisons. However, differences in model skill can be distorted by inconsistencies in experimental set-up, inputs and output format. This paper harmonizes ...
MIDAS: A Benchmarking Multi-Criteria Method for the Identification of Defective Anemometers in Wind Farms
(MDPI, 2018-12-22)
A novel multi-criteria methodology for the identification of defective anemometers is shown in this paper with a benchmarking approach: it is called MIDAS: multi-technique identification of defective anemometers. The ...
Hydraulic Performance Of Permeable Asphalt And Picp In Swmm, Validated By Laboratory Data
(WitPress, 2019)
Traditional urban development practices disrupt the natural water cycle, increasing surface runoff
volume/velocity and reducing water quality, amongst other impacts. Those negative impacts can be
reduced adopting sustainable ...
