Medium voltage active power filters for all-electric ships

, 2005
Power quality aspects are becoming more and more challenging in the AES field. Among them, voltage-THD requirements stated by ship-owners are becoming narrower and narrower, while traditional countermeasures to harmonic distortion do not seem to ...

The aesthetic sublime of megaproject structures: A framework and a research agenda

European Management Review, EarlyView.
Abstract The physical structures of megaprojects—such as mega‐canals, metros, railway lines, bridges, tunnels, and iconic opera houses—hold a profound capacity to generate aesthetic experiences with enduring societal impact. Yet, research on megaprojects has predominantly focused on functionality and economic rationale with aesthetics being pushed to ...
