Numerical Investigation in the Vaned Distributor under Different Guide Vanes Openings of a Pump Turbine in Pump Mode

Journal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2016
The performance of a pump turbine in pump mode is of great importance to a pumped storage power plant. In order to obtain the pump characteristics of a pump turbine, 3D steady simulations were carried out by solving rans using different two-equation ...

3D Compressible Flow Analysis of an Ultra-High-Head Pumped Storage Unit with Water Conveyance System at Maximum Pumping Head

Energies
Severe pressure pulsations caused by complex flow fields in pumped-storage power stations significantly threaten operational safety and stability. With advances in computational technology, fully three-dimensional simulations coupling pipelines and pump ...

Early Outer Hair Cell Dysfunction Associated With Educational Noise Exposure in Dental Students: Implications for Hearing Conservation in Dental Education

European Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Dental education involves continuous exposure to high‐frequency noise from clinical instruments, which may cause early outer hair cell damage even before professional practice begins. While noise‐induced hearing loss (NIHL) is a recognised occupational hazard among dentists, evidence regarding subclinical outer hair cell changes ...

Reimagining State Aid: Guiding Law and Policy Reform in a Changing World

European Law Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT EU state aid law has shifted fundamentally from an originally purely repressive tool to a proactive steering mechanism for critical EU goals today. This paper argues that the current legal framework in Article 107 TFEU is gravely misaligned with this new function.

Shark preferences: Only subtle effects of electromagnetic field exposure and substrate type on small‐spotted catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula) behaviour

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Offshore wind energy plays a crucial role in the transition to low‐carbon power generation. The expansion of offshore wind farms (OWFs) introduces anthropogenic electromagnetic fields (EMFs) from subsea power cables. Elasmobranchs, including sharks and rays, are sensitive to natural electric and magnetic fields used for navigation and prey ...

Dynamic Capabilities as Drivers of Circular Business Models: Exploring Direct and Indirect Relationships

Journal of Product Innovation Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Academic Summary Despite the urgent need for a circular economy, firms' transition from linear to circular business models (CBMs) remains slow. While previous research suggests that dynamic capabilities are the key drivers of this transition, it assumes a direct link, overlooking that these capabilities can facilitate change but do not ...

China's Export Surge and the Persistence of Machinery Competitiveness: Panel Evidence From 25 Countries

The World Economy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT China's rapid ascent as a global machinery exporter raises fundamental questions about competitive resilience of incumbent economies. This paper examines whether China's gains in revealed comparative advantage (RCA) are associated with declining competitive positions among 24 incumbent economies and whether such changes coincide with ...

No evidence of higher peak heat tolerance in the afternoon or with opportunity for thermal behaviour during low‐intensity work in uncompensable heat

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Heat tolerance is known to be limited by high brain temperature, but most findings pertain to strenuous exercise following artificially altered baseline temperature or with limited opportunity for behaviour. Therefore, we investigated the hypotheses that thermal perceptions, hyperventilation and cerebrovascular responses would be exacerbated ...

Thermophysiological and perceptual responses to exercise heat stress in people with cystic fibrosis on Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The objective of this study was to investigate thermophysiological and perceptual responses to exercise heat stress in people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF) on Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor (ETI) versus healthy controls, and to explore their lived experiences of heat stress.

Uncertainty Quantification and Attribution for Resilient Infrastructure Systems

Climate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 5, Issue 2, December 2026.
Infrastructure resilience is critical for maintaining the delivery of essential services to society. However, although computational modelling is integral to infrastructure management, infrastructure model outputs are conditional on a range of uncertain assumptions, both in the present day and under future climate change.
