Intelligent Operator‐Independent Flexibility in Robotic Non‐Destructive Evaluation

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Non‐destructive evaluation of high‐value components remains a manufacturing bottleneck due to rigid robotic calibration and fixturing. This study presents a flexible, adaptable system integrating 3D vision and force‐position control with a collaborative KUKA LBR robot. The geometry‐agnostic system enables pose‐independent ultrasonic inspection, detects

Analysis of conditions favourable for small vertical axis wind turbines between building passages in urban areas of Sweden

open access: yesInternational Journal of Sustainable Energy, 2017
This paper presents the analysis of installing the vertical axis wind turbines between the building passages on an island in Stockholm, Sweden. Based on the idea of wind speed amplification due to the venture effect in passages, practical measurements ...

Control and emulation of small wind turbines using torque estimators

open access: yesEuropean Conference on Cognitive Ergonomics, 2015
Soft-stall control of small wind turbines is a method to protect the generation system or the load from high wind speeds while keeping the system generating. Soft-stall activation must be due to an excess of power or torque/current. This paper proposes a

Studies of Vibrations from Wind Turbines in the Vicinity of the Eskdalemuir (AS104) IMS Station [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Styles et al (2005) describe an extensive microseismic and infrasound monitoring programme to characterise the low-frequency vibration spectra produced by wind turbines of various types, both fixed and variable speed.

Uncovering renewable energy policy impact channels on land values, the local farm structure, and farmland heterogeneity

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Germany's Renewable Energy Sources Act (REA), enacted in 2000 and subsequently amended, subsidized national renewable energy production with fixed feed‐in tariffs for renewable energy sources (RE) from wind, solar, and biogas. Empirical studies suggest that the policy was creating windfall effects for landowners and attribute farmland use ...

The potential of the sea breeze for wind energy generation in peri-urban coastal areas using small wind turbines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This work investigates the potential of the sea breeze for wind energy generation with small wind turbines. For this purpose, we used wind data recorded in the Llobregat Delta (NE of the Iberian Peninsula) from 1993 to 2010 and turbine power curves ...

Design and Performance Analysis of a Thermal Energy Storage System With Steam Extraction and Electric Heating in a Coal‐Fired Power Plant

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To alleviate the impact of the instability of renewable energy power generation on the power grid, coal‐fired power plants (CFPPs) have to undertake peak shaving tasks, which puts forward high requirements for the flexibility of CFPPs. To enhance the flexibility of CFPPs to consume more renewable energy, this paper innovatively proposes a ...

Micro-wind turbine system in urban environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Wind power is identified to be of great potential for extensive development in many countries to reduce the fossil fuel based power generation. Conventional three blades wind turbines are commonly used in locations with high wind energy density, while ...
