Seasonal shifting of surplus renewable energy in a power system located in a cold region

open access: yesAIMS Energy, 2014
The Fukushima nuclear disaster in 2011 changed Japan's strategy for reducing CO2 emissions. The government is now placing more emphasis on the development of nonCO2-emitting distributed generation systems such as wind, solar, and tidal power to reduce ...

Shocks Power Tidal Disruption Events

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Accretion of debris seems to be the natural mechanism to power the radiation emitted during a tidal disruption event (TDE), in which a supermassive black hole tears apart a star.

Sleep Alters the Velocity of Physiological Brain Pulsations in Humans

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Sleep alters I/CSF oscillatory flow, driven by increased respiratory (29%) and vasomotor pulsation (21%) velocities, while cardiovascular pulsations decreased by (22%). Velocity is quantified using optical flow analysis of MREG data. Spectral power increases alongside these pulsations (spatial correlation, r = 0.35 and r = 0.39, respectively ...

Contra-rotating marine current turbines : single point tethered floating system - stabilty and performance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The Energy Systems Research Unit within the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Strathclyde has developed a novel contra-rotating tidal turbine (CoRMaT). A series of tank and sea tests have led to the development and deployment of a

Edible and Recyclable Gelatin‐Based Electronics for High‐Precision Health and Environmental Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An edible and recyclable composite film composed of gelatin and activated charcoal is presented for multifunctional health and environmental monitoring. The edible films exhibit tuneable mechanical and electrical properties, along with multimodal sensing capabilities for strain, humidity, and temperature. The composite film is degradable and recyclable,

The distribution and tapping tidal energy

open access: yesOceanologia, 2004
Tidal power along tidal shores has been used for centuries to run small tidal mills. Generating electricity by tapping tidal power proved to be very successful only in the last century through the tidal power plant constructed in 1967 in La Rance,

Ocean Energy: Using the Ocean's Tides, Waves, and Heat to Generate Electricity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Key facts: - The oceans' tides, waves, current, and heat can be used to generate electricity. These resources are renewable, because the moon's gravity drives tides, and winds create waves.

Ecosystem‐Centered Robot Design: Toward Ecoresorbable Sustainability Robots (ESRs)

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Robots exploring natural ecosystems can support monitoring and conservation, but must adopt ecosystem‐centered design to avoid pollution, waste, and damage. This review proposes guidelines for co‐designing ecoresorbable sustainability robots (ESRs), uniting materials, robotics, and ecological contexts in a single framework.

Hydrodynamic Analysis of Tidal Current Turbine under Water-Sediment Conditions

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
The rivers connecting oceans generally carry sediment due to water and soil losses in China. Additionally, the maximum sediment concentration is 300 g/L, which is much higher than that of other countries.
