Powerplant cooling flight tests

open access: yesScientific Technical Review, 2022
Flight testing is necessary in the process of showing compliance of the airplane with specific design requirements. Utva Aviation Industry performed numerous flight tests of Sova airplane in order to prove its safety. Along with airplane design, structure, performance and equipment, it was necessary to show compliance of the powerplant.

DESIGN MODELLING AND ANALYSIS OF A WIND TURBINE BLADE SUPPORT SYSTEM

open access: yesJournal of Industrial Design and Engineering Graphics, 2017
Wind turbines and green energy is of high interest nowadays and the size of the powerplants keeps getting bigger and bigger. The forces that arise as the blades increase in size have the magnitude to deform the profiles.

A framework for capturing indirect impacts in site‐level screening for biodiversity risks

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Site‐based industrial operations such as mining, oil and gas extraction and renewable energy development are associated with many direct and indirect impacts on biodiversity. Consideration of the full range of these impacts when selecting a buffer distance to approximate the Area of Influence (AoI) of a project is critical for effective ...

Fused Collapsing for Wide BVH Construction

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We propose a novel approach for constructing wide bounding volume hierarchies on the GPU by integrating a simple bottom‐up collapsing procedure within an existing binary bottom‐up BVH builder. Our approach directly constructs a wide BVH without traversing a temporary binary BVH as done by previous approaches and achieves 1.4 – 1.6 × lower ...

UBVH: Unified Bounding Volume and Scene Geometry Representation for Ray Tracing

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Bounding volume hierarchies (BVHs) are currently the most common data structure used to accelerate ray tracing. The existing BVH methods distinguish between the bounding volume representation associated with the interior BVH nodes and the scene geometry representation associated with leaf nodes.
