Alternative Fuels for Internal Combustion Engines

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
The recent transport electrification trend is pushing governments to limit the future use of Internal Combustion Engines (ICEs). However, the rationale for this strong limitation is frequently not sufficiently addressed or justified. The problem does not

Dynamical Sliding Mode Control for Robust Dynamic Positioning Systems of FPSO Vessels

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
The conventional proportional derivative (PD) control algorithm with appropriate gain scheduling is generally applied to a dynamic positioning (DP) system. However, finding appropriate gains through gain scheduling makes the DP system more complicated. A

Alternative fuels in aviation [PDF]

open access: yesCEAS Aeronautical Journal, 2014
During the last years, the aviation sector has been looking into alternatives to kerosene from crude oil, to combat climate change by reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and to ensure security of supply at affordable prices. The efforts are also a reaction to commitments and policy packages.
