Two-scale momentum theory for very large wind farms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A new theoretical approach is proposed to predict a practical upper limit to the efficiency of a very large wind farm. The new theory suggests that the efficiency of ideal turbines in an ideal very large wind farm depends primarily on a non-dimensional ...

The “Skipping Rope” Technique: A Novel Strategy for Distal Burr Entrapment During Rotational Atherectomy

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We describe the “skipping rope technique” for managing burr entrapment during rotational atherectomy. Sequential counterclockwise rotational force is applied to the drive shaft, generating alternative torque dynamics. This maneuver provides a safe method to disengage a stuck rotaburr, offering operators an additional strategy for this ...

Automated Process Optimization in a Novel Triple Shaft Mixer with Adaptive Mixing Modes

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
A novel multi‐purpose mixer with adjustable blade angle and a coaxial stirrer is developed, providing three degrees of freedom. An optimization strategy is integrated to autonomously identify optimal operating conditions through automated tests. The current draw of the main stirrer serves as the optimization criterion, while stirrer speeds, directions,
