Abstract Climate and catchment characteristics, particularly land and water use and management, may vary according to the population growth rate, future food habits and water demands. Three climate simulations corresponding to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, Special Report on Emissions Scenarios (A1B) were downscaled using the ‘Providing

Battery Recharge Time of a Stochastic Linear and Non-Linear Energy Harvesting System [PDF]
Systems harvesting energy from a stochastic source have been widely studied in the literature. However, we are not aware of any work that deals with the time it takes for a battery to recharge up to a given level, when the energy source is discrete stochastic. This letter aims to examine the recharge time of a perfect battery. We examine the cases when

ABSTRACT Human impact in the form of reservoir construction and river regulation downstream of reservoirs, is causing irreversible alterations to hillslope and river channel connectivity in river catchments. This disruption in the dynamic equilibrium of the river is attributed to sediment accumulation upstream of the reservoir's dam, limited sediment ...

Quantum recharging by shortcut to adiabaticity [PDF]
Quantum battery concerns about population redistribution and energy dispatch over controllable quantum systems. Under unitary transformation, ergotropy rather than energy plays an essential role in describing the accumulated useful work. Thus, the charging and recharging of quantum batteries are distinct from the electric-energy input and reuse of ...

Algorithms for Routing of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles with Mobile Recharging Stations [PDF]
We study the problem of planning a tour for an energy-limited Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) to visit a set of sites in the least amount of time. We envision scenarios where the UAV can be recharged along the way either by landing on stationary recharging stations or on Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs) acting as mobile recharging stations.
