Adaptive Turbine Replacement Improves Hydropower Flexibility in a Changing Climate
Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract Hydropower plants will operate under new conditions as water regimes shift, reservoir operating rules evolve, and the grid requires flexible balancing of wind and solar. Hydropower plant turbine systems are traditionally designed to operate at the highest efficiency within narrow ranges of flow and reservoir levels while deviations from design

Extending the operational range of Francis turbines: A case study of a 200 MW prototype
Energy Conversion and Management: XFrancis turbines are now widely used to support the integration of renewable and intermittent energy sources such as solar and wind power. Consequently, these turbines often operate away from their best efficiency point (BEP).

Numerical study on unidirectional fluid–solid coupling of Francis turbine runner
Advances in Mechanical Engineering, 2015 To analyze the fluid–solid coupling stress characteristics of the Francis turbine runner comprehensively, based on the Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations and shear stress transport k-ω turbulence model, this article performs numerical simulation ...

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 7, Page 3267-3279, 1 July 2026.Abstract This study investigated cerebral and neuromuscular responses to three exercise models: time trial (TT), maximal oxygen uptake (V̇O2max${{\dot{V}}_{{{{\mathrm{O}}}_2}{\mathrm{max}}}}$) and time to exhaustion (TTE). Fourteen participants completed the tests in the following order: V̇O2max${{\dot{V}}_{{{{\mathrm{O}}}_2}{\mathrm{max}}}}$, TT and ...

Vulnerability of Bats in Australia to Wind Turbine Mortality: A Trait‐Based Assessment
Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Wind turbine collisions are a leading cause of bat mortality globally, yet the vulnerability of Australian bat taxa remains poorly understood. Trait‐based assessments offer a valuable method for evaluating mortality risk in the absence of data on species‐ and region‐specific turbine interactions.
