Prediction of runner eccentricity and Alford force of a Kaplan turbine based on variational mode decomposition

open access: yesEnergy Science & Engineering
The rotor blades of an axial‐flow turbine are cantilever structures, and there is inevitably a gap between them and the casing. Due to factors such as rotor wear and unit vibration, the eccentricity of the impeller will change during the operation of the

The Dynamic Characteristics and Control of a Hydraulic Turbine

open access: yesMeasurement + Control, 1969
A dynamic model of a radial flow turbine was derived. The model was verified by tests on an experimental 5 hp Francis type turbine. The tests indicate that the model is adequate for control system design.

Role of Fiber Sizing in Interfacial Relaxation, Water Uptake and Fatigue Properties of Acrylic‐Matrix Composites

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Characterisation of glass fibre reinforced acrylic with acrylic‐tailored or multi‐compatible sizing agents. ABSTRACT Fiber‐reinforced infusible acrylic monomer resins are of interest as recyclable alternatives to epoxy and other thermoset resin composites, but the novelty of these resins causes published studies on acrylic‐matrix composites to often ...

A new method to identify and explain sources of precipitation modification, illustrated for the western Netherlands

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This study develops a method to identify the source areas of precipitation events, as illustrated for the western part of the Netherlands. Radar‐based precipitation data are traced back to their source areas and machine‐learning techniques are used to identify hypothesized causes: urban heat, surface roughness, and air pollution. We find that urban and

Search and Passage Are Decoupled for Migrating Trout Kelts at Multi‐Exit Dam

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Longitudinal and lateral river connectivity have been drastically reduced over time, with hydropower development as a major driver of fragmentation. While fishways are widely implemented to support upstream migration, downstream passage remains a major challenge.

Bridging the Gap Between Socio‐Political and Community Acceptance of Wind Energy: Policy Insights for Sustainable Energy Development

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wind energy plays an important role in achieving energy transition and sustainable development goals, yet disparities between socio‐political and community acceptance continue to hinder project implementation. Understanding this gap is essential for designing more socially responsive wind energy policies.
