Abstract Hydropower dams regulate water flows for millions of downstream inhabitants worldwide, altering water availability. Under a changing climate, flow control is often framed technically and politically as being essential for reducing drought and flood risks. However, it can also disrupt ecological flows, impact livelihoods and erode environmental

ABSTRACT In Spain, under General Franco's regime, homosexuality was regarded as an antisocial and dangerous behaviour. It was thus pursued both by the police and judicial courts. The Law on Vagrants and Crooks (1954) and, subsequently, the Law on Dangerousness and Social Rehabilitation (1970) constituted the legal mechanisms used by the dictatorship to

Development of a state feedback controller for the synchronous buck converter [PDF]
A digital control algorithm for a current-mode (CM) and a voltage-mode (VM) synchronous buck converter (SBC) is developed. In both cases, the design leads to a stable controller, even for a duty cycle larger than 50%.

The First Archaeomagnetic Age at Tiwanaku and Implications for Dating Andean Metallurgical Furnaces
ABSTRACT This paper presents the first archaeomagnetic dating at Tiwanaku (Andean Altiplano). We compared the geomagnetic field values recorded by a metallurgical furnace against an updated SHAWQ2k‐SH global model and a regional intensity curve, both of which include, for the first time, high‐quality intensity data from the Southern Hemisphere. Results

A Model for Induction Motors with Non-Uniform Air-Gap [PDF]
Equations to calculate inductances of induction motors, considering non-uniform air-gap, are proposed. The analyzed air-gap variations are static and dynamic eccentricity and stator slots.

Abstract This paper presents a two‐stage model for planning a renewable energy portfolio by balancing economic, social and environmental sustainability goals. The first stage addresses a multi‐objective problem where conflictive impacts generated by the energy portfolios should be optimised according to the corresponding economic, social or ...

Accelerating Just Energy Transitions in Brazil: Pathways for Social Development
ABSTRACT This critical article analyzes energy poverty in Brazil from the theoretical perspective of distributive justice, proposing the implementation of a new social regulation called Contribution to Social Development. The goal is to support the process of a just energy transition leading to a broader debate on energy planning and social issues ...
