Efficacy of Painting Wind Turbine Blades as a Mitigation Measure to Reduce Bird Collisions in a Mediterranean Wind Farm. [PDF]
Bird mortality due to collisions with wind turbines necessitates the implementation of measures to mitigate this impact. Blade patterning has shown to be a promising measure to increase turbine visibility to birds and reduce collisions. Employing a Before–After–Control–Impact experiment using long‐term fatality searches, bird fatality rates were ...

Identification of Material Properties and Optimal Design of Magnetically Shielded Rooms
In this paper, we propose an optimal design procedure for magnetically shielded rooms. Focusing on multi-layer ferromagnetic structures, where inner layers operate at very low magnetic field, we propose an identification method of the magnetic material ...

Ferroionic Electrostatic Landscapes Enabling Wireless Energy Harvesting, Storage, and Sensing
By integrating experiments and electrostatic field simulations, we show that long‐range wireless coupling in Li‐based ferroionics devices emerges from the cooperative interaction between ionic migration and electronic polarization. This coupling sustains self‐polarized electrostatic fields across centimeter‐scale air gaps without external bias or ...
