Job displacement costs of phasing out coal
The reduction of carbon emissions will require a rapid phasing out of coal and the displacement of millions of coal miners. How much could this energy transition cost mining workers? We use the dramatic collapse of the UK coal industry to estimate the long-term impact on displaced miners.

Influence of wall roughness on two-phase displacement
In the development of oil and gas fields, water flooding is still the most important development method. The influence of the existence of rough channel on two-phase flow cannot be ignored.

Direct torque control for dual three-phase induction motor drives [PDF]
A direct torque control (DTC) strategy for dual three-phase induction motor drives is discussed in this paper. The induction machine has two sets of stator three-phase windings spatially shifted by 30 electrical degrees.

A New Method to Verify the Measurement Speed and Accuracy of Frequency Modulated Interferometers
The measurement speed and measurement accuracy of a displacement measuring interferometer are key parameters. To verify these parameters, a fast and high-accuracy motion is required.

Full surface strain measurement using shearography [PDF]
Shearography is a full-field optical technique usually used for the determination of surface strain. Correlation of interferometric speckle patterns recorded before and after the object deformation yields fringes sensitive to displacement gradient ...

Displacement Convexity and Minimal Fronts at Phase Boundaries [PDF]
We show that certain free energy functionals that are not convex with respect to the usual convex structure on their domain of definition, are strictly convex in the sense of displacement convexity under a natural change of variables. We use this to show that in certain cases, the only critical points of these functionals are minimizers.

Impact of Pore-Scale Characteristics on Immiscible Fluid Displacement
Immiscible fluid flows (drainage displacement) where nonwetting fluid invades porous media filled with wetting fluid are frequently observed. Numerous studies have confirmed the existence of three different displacement patterns which depend on the ...

A two-pressure model for slightly compressible single phase flow in bi-structured porous media [PDF]
Problems involving flow in porous media are ubiquitous in many natural and engineered systems. Mathematical modeling of such systems often relies on homogenization of pore-scale equations and macroscale continuum descriptions.
