A high efficiency and high reliability single-phase modified quasi Z-Source inverter for non-isolated grid-connected applications
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Quazi Z-Source inverter (qZSI) is a promising inverter topology that can buck or boost input voltage without a DC-DC converter and hence can be used in transformerless configuration. This is a high efficiency solution ...
Bayesian network and response surface methodology for prediction and improvement of bacterial metabolite production
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
The optimization of antifungal activity production by Bacillus amyloliquefaciens was carried out using Response Surface Methodology (RSM) in two steps. The first step involved the screening of cultural parameters affecting ...
A mixed space-time and wavenumber domain model for predicting ground vibration from railway tracks
(
National Technical University of Athens
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, a mixed model for studying ground vibration generated from surface railway tracks is presented. A ballasted track with nonlinear resilient components is modelled in the time domain using the Finite Element ...
The PiP model and progress in ground vibration from railways
(
Australian Acoustical Society
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Vibration in the ground causes problems. At large amplitude vibration causes damage, the most obvious example being earthquake damage. But the ground motion in a damaging earthquake is typically low-frequency (below 1Hz) ...
Experimental validation of a numerical model for the ground vibration from trains in tunnels
(
DC/ConfOrg
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Ground vibration and ground-borne noise from trains in tunnels are attracting increasing attention from researchers and engineers. They are important environmental issues related with the operation of underground networks ...
Modelling the dynamic pile-soil-pile interaction in a multi-layered half-space
(
DC/ConfOrg
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Within the context of railway ground-borne vibration, the dynamic pile-soil-pile interaction remains an area that has not been sufficiently investigated. Whilst a number of researchers have scrutinised the vibration response ...
Effect of rail unevenness correlation on the prediction of ground-borne vibration from railways
(
DC/ConfOrg
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents the influence of rail unevenness correlation on the predicted track and ground vibration. The study is based on an integrated railway model in the wavenumber-frequency domain with varying complexity ...
Pore-scale mechanisms associated with permeability impairment in porous media: A micromodel study
(
European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers, EAGE
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Recently, researchers are attracted towards the gas production from hydrate bearing sediments considering its abundance in marine continental margins and persisting demand for alternate energy. Dissociation of hydrate into ...
Impact of fines type on gas flow using 3D micro-computed tomography
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Methane hydrates are promising unconventional energy source with natural reserves above 1,000 Trillion m3. Hydrates are found in saturated sandy sediments, where multi-phase flow of gas takes place through sediment's pores, ...
Hydrate surface area measurements during dissociation using dynamic 3d synchrotron computed tomography
(
European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers, EAGE
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Availability of natural hydrates and ongoing rise in demand for energy, motivated researchers to consider hydrates as a potential energy source. Prior to gas production operations from hydrate-bearing sediments, hydrate ...
