Kinetic Energy Harvesting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This chapter introduces principles of normal kinetic energy harvesting and adaptive kinetic energy harvesting. Kinetic energy harvesters, also known as vibration power generators, are typically, although not exclusively, inertial spring-mass systems. Electrical power is extracted by employing one or a combination of different transduction mechanisms ...

On the Bending Kinetic Energy and a Revisit to Cross-Scale Kinetic Energy Diagnostics

open access: yesOcean-Land-Atmosphere Research
A comprehensive and accurate representation of kinetic energy (KE) is crucial for understanding multiscale processes in the Earth system. Traditional 2-reservoir frameworks, which partition total kinetic energy into mean kinetic energy (MKE) and eddy ...

KINETIC THEORY OF PLASMAS: TRANSLATIONAL ENERGY [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Models and Methods in Applied Sciences, 2009
In the present study, we derive from kinetic theory a unified fluid model for multicomponent plasmas by accounting for the electromagnetic field influence. We deal with a possible thermal nonequilibrium of the translational energy of the particles, neglecting their internal energy and reactive collisions. Given the strong disparity of mass between the

Seasonal Variation of Submesoscale Ageostrophic Motion and Geostrophic Energy Cascade in the Kuroshio

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
The study of submesoscale ageostrophic motion is crucial for enhancing our comprehension of ocean dynamics. This paper employs global sea surface velocity reanalysis data and mixed layer depth data to examine the factors influencing submesoscale ...

Rockfall Intensity under Seismic and Aseismic Conditions: The Case of Lefkada Island, Greece

open access: yesLand, 2023
Rockfall analysis is a multiparametric procedure with many uncertainties and the outputs are largely dependent on some critical engineering geological parameters involved in the used simulation model.

Transient Stability Control Based on Kinetic Energy Changes Measured by Synchronized Angular Velocity

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
Real-time transient stability studies are based on voltage angle measures obtained with phasor measurement units (PMUs). A more precise calculation to address transient stability is obtained when using the rotor angles. However, these values are commonly

On conditions for contrail formation from aircraft exhausts

open access: yesMeteorologische Zeitschrift, 1996
The formation of contrails (condensation trails) from aircraft exhaust has been investigated since 1919. Related studies are reviewed. The thermodynamical foundation of the Appleman threshold criterion for contrail formation has been first described by ...

The 3D Navier–Stokes Equations: Invariants, Local and Global Solutions

open access: yesAxioms, 2019
In this article, I consider local solutions of the 3D Navier–Stokes equations and its properties such as an existence of global and smooth solution, uniform boundedness.
