Application of Electrical Resistance Probes for Corrosion Monitoring and Cathodic Protection Assessment of Offshore Structures

open access: yesMaterials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
A novel thick‐track electrical resistance probe with five sensing tracks was developed for offshore corrosion monitoring. The probe provides reliable, real‐time corrosion‐rate measurements in natural seawater. Corrosion‐rate trends showed strong agreement with weight‐loss coupon measurements.

Vibration Attenuation of Cantilever Beam Using Electromagnetic Delayed Feedback

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a combined analytical and numerical investigation of a single‐input single‐output delayed feedback controller designed to suppress vibrations in a cantilever beam actuated by an electromagnet positioned beneath its free end. An analytical model was developed using the linearized equation of motion for a transversely excited

Torsional Vibrations at Guide-Vane Shaft of Pump–Turbine Model

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 1997
This article focuses on the problem of guide-vane vibrations of reversible pump–turbines, especially, in the pump mode. These vibrations are transmitted to the guide-vane shaft torque. The guide-vane vibrations are caused by the impeller exit flow, which

‘We want to be the hosts of this story’: Learning from community‐led approaches to data governance of land use for nature recovery

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Debates abound regarding how to use land for nature recovery and environmental governance. Such decisions require an understanding of benefits and trade‐offs, and increasingly rely on vast quantities of data, delivered through digital technologies.

Digital surveillance of animals and nature recovery

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Digital surveillance technologies (DSTs) are widely applied in nature recovery for their potential to generate novel data on species and ecosystems through digital tracking, automation (e.g. from hazardous locations) and from newly recruited citizen scientists.

Limitations of Using DAQ Cards for Absolute Vibration Measurement in Hydraulic Machines

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Vibration measurements are a frequently used tool in technical issues. They are widely used in operation and for testing irregularities in the operation of machines and devices, including hydraulic machines (turbines, pumps, and pump turbines).

Development of a 1-D Performance Prediction Model for Pumps as Turbines

open access: yesProceedings, 2018
Pumps as turbines (PaTs) are becoming more and more attractive in Small Hydropower. PaTs are considered a cost-effective alternative to conventional turbines as long as their turbine characteristic curves can be predicted. Indeed, manufacturers need of a

Experimental and Modeling Investigation of Seawater Hydrolysis Effects on Aramid Fiber Rupture Behavior

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Hydrolytic aging in seawater produces markedly different mechanical responses among commercial Aramid fibers. While some fibers exhibit progressive degradation, others maintain stable or even improved tensile behavior. Experimental yarn‐scale testing combined with mathematical degradation modeling and Arrhenius‐based lifetime prediction provides new ...
