Sensitivity of a distributed temperature-radiation index melt model based on AWS observations and surface energy balance fluxes, Hurd Peninsula glaciers, Livingston Island, Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We use an automatic weather station and surface mass balance dataset spanning four melt seasons collected on Hurd Peninsula Glaciers, South Shetland Islands, to investigate the point surface energy balance, to determine the absolute and relative ...

Catching the right wave: evaluating wave energy resources and potential compatibility with existing marine and coastal uses. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Many hope that ocean waves will be a source for clean, safe, reliable and affordable energy, yet wave energy conversion facilities may affect marine ecosystems through a variety of mechanisms, including competition with other human uses.

HF Radars for Wave Energy Resource Assessment Offshore NW Spain

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Wave energy resource assessment is crucial for the development of the marine renewable industry. High-frequency radars (HF radars) have been demonstrated to be a useful wave measuring tool.

Low-temperature excitations within the Bethe approximation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We propose the variational quantum cavity method to construct a minimal energy subspace of wave vectors that are used to obtain some upper bounds for the energy cost of the low-temperature excitations. Given a trial wave function we use the cavity method

Conceptual Design and Simulation of a Self-Adjustable Heaving Point Absorber Based Wave Energy Converter

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
Different concepts and methods have been proposed and developed by many researchers to harvest ocean wave energy. In this paper, a new self-adjustable wave energy converter concept is presented, which changes its inertia through ballasting and de ...

Power Take-Off Simulation for Scale Model Testing of Wave Energy Converters

open access: yesEnergies, 2017
Small scale testing in controlled environments is a key stage in the development of potential wave energy conversion technology. Furthermore, it is well known that the physical design and operational quality of the power-take off (PTO) used on the small ...

Numerical Assessment of Onshore Wave Energy in France: Wave Energy, Conversion and Cost

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
There are few general analyses of the interest of onshore wave energy converters (onshore WEC) in terms of resources, efficiency and cost. The case of The Channel on the Atlantic coast of France is chosen here to illustrate the issues related to onshore ...

Wave-packet treatment of neutrino oscillations and its implications on determining the neutrino mass hierarchy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We derive the neutrino flavor transition probabilities with the neutrino treated as a wave packet. The decoherence and dispersion effects from the wave-packet treatment show up as damping and phase-shifting of the plane-wave neutrino oscillation patterns.
