Economic evaluation of towers for central receiver systems [PDF]
So far, the tower is probably the most under-investigated component of solar thermal power tower plants. While the capacity of these plants is constantly increasing, also the tower dimensions are rising, calling for higher towers that can bear receivers of bigger size and weight.

Encoding and Perception of Electro-communication Signals in Apteronotus leptorhynchus
Animal communication plays an essential role in triggering diverse behaviors. It is believed in this regard that signal production by a sender and its perception by a receiver is co-evolving in order to have beneficial effects such as to ensure that ...

Global Methods for Calculating Shading and Blocking Efficiency in Central Receiver Systems
This paper presents three new methods for calculating the shading and blocking efficiency in Central Receiver Systems (CRSs). All of them are characterized by the calculation of multiple useful and total reflecting areas without the need to resort to ...
