Merits of flywheels for spacecraft energy storage [PDF]
, 1984 Flywheel energy storage systems which have a very good potential for use in spacecraft are discussed. This system can be superior to alkaline secondary batteries and regenerable fuel cells in most of the areas that are important in spacecraft ...

The American Journal of Economics and Sociology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article explores the application of demurrage money, a concept developed by Silvio Gesell, into Web3. Demurrage money, designed to discourage the hoarding of currency and prevent economic stagnation and concentrations in wealth, offers a potential remedy for the problems of traditional fiat and gold‐backed monetary systems.

Considerations for the Design of Sinusoidal Slug Testing Methods
Groundwater, EarlyView.Periodic hydraulic tests estimate aquifer properties using controlled groundwater‐level oscillations. Evaluating two sinusoidal slug‐test designs shows large motion errors when transfer‐link and flywheel ratios are high or variable. Rotating‐drive mechanisms are therefore suboptimal; stepper‐motor winches generate more accurate sinusoidal motion ...

Product Positioning and Incentives to Innovate
Journal of Economics &Management Strategy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper shows that product positioning affects the incentives to invest in process innovation. The result is found using a model of price competition with three firms under horizontal product differentiation—and then extended to a more general Bertrand triopoly.

Long-Discharge Flywheel Versus Battery Energy Storage for Microgrids: a Techno-Economic Comparison
Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2019 The energy storage deployment becomes necessary as more renewable energy sources are being installed to achieve sustainable energy access in off-grid areas. Battery prices, however, still hinder massive deployment.
