Design and construction of a simple blade pitch measurement system for small wind turbines
For small wind turbines to be reliable they must have in place good mechanisms to protect themselves against very high winds or sudden removal of load. One common protection method in small wind turbines is that of blade feathering.

If tidal electricity generation and storage replaced natural gas and battery storage by 2050, it could reduce the climate change impact of UK grid electricity by 71%, saving up to 4.4 Mt CO2 eq./y. Most other environmental impacts would be reduced by up to 24%. However, high costs and low public acceptability hinder its deployment. ABSTRACT Tidal range

A Review of the Applications and Challenges of Pulsed Electric Fields in Fish Ecological Protection
ABSTRACT The use of pulsed electric fields (PEF) to regulate fish swimming patterns, especially during migratory channel restoration in dammed rivers, faces significant operational challenges. These challenges can generally be attributed to the multifaceted nature of fish behaviour and limitations in research on physical interception methods.

Three‐Year Characterization of Boundary Layer Dynamics From GNSS Zenith Wet Delay Spectral Analysis
Three years of GNSS zenith wet delay observations at Payerne reveal that spectral parameters—cutoff frequency α and variance σ2—capture robust seasonal cycles in boundary layer turbulence (R2 = 0.54 for α). Their inverse coupling tightens to r = −0.82 under summer convection, encoding regime‐dependent physics.
