Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 2, Page 764-779, February 2026.Based on entropy theory, this study presents a comparative numerical analysis of the flow energy dissipation (FED) in a VTSP under two distinct operating conditions: pump condition and turbine condition, both characterized by relatively high hydraulic efficiencies of 88.9% and 87.4%, respectively. In pump condition, the highest FED production occurs in

Incremental Model Order Reduction of Smoothed‐Particle Hydrodynamic Simulations
International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, Volume 97, Issue 12, Page 1571-1594, December 2025.The paper presents the development of an incremental singular value decomposition strategy for compressing time‐dependent particle simulation results, addressing gaps in the data matrices caused by temporally inactive particles. The approach reduces memory requirements by about 90%, increases the computational effort by about 10%, and preserves the ...

A community electrification project: combination of microgrids and household systems fed by wind, PV or micro-hydro energies according to micro-scale resource evaluation and social constraints [PDF]
, 2014 When electrifying isolated rural communities, usually standardized solutions have been implemented using the same technology at all the points. However these solutions are not always appropriate to the community and its population.
