Esta dissertação centra-se no estudo de Viabilidade das Energias Renováveis em Angola; deste modo, primeiro, é apresentada uma visão geral sobre o histórico mundial na área das energias renováveis, aborda-se a independência energética de Angola, a descarbonização do setor produt…
A wide selection of deterministic and stochastic methods have been developed to conduct nuclear reactor criticality calculations and to improve the efficiency of these methods, a branch of neutronics method research focuses on the acceleration of source convergence process which…
Diğer enerji kaynaklarına nazaran daha geniş kullanım alanına sahip olan petrol dünyanın en önemli enerji kaynaklarından biridir. Sanayileşmenin başlamasıyla tüketimindeki hızlı artış ve bu enerji kaynağına alternatifin bulunamaması, petrolün 19. yüzyılın sonlarından itibaren ha…
Indoor thermal comfort in residential buildings is usually achieved by tenants manually adjusting fixed temperature set-points; this is known as a 'static' method. Prior research has explored automated control of thermal comfort based on the concept of a Predicted Mean Vote (PMV…
У дисертацији је представљен поступак дистрибутивне естимације стања (ДЕС) за модерне дистрибутивне мреже са дистрибутивним енергетским ресурсима (активне дистрибутивне мреже) који је интегрисан у дистрибтивни менаџмент систем (ДМС). Интеграција поступка ДЕС у ДМС се састоји од …
Advances in electrochemical devices such as batteries, fuel cells, and water-splitting membranes are making global transition towards clean and renewable energy more possible than ever. Foundational to (electro)chemical and catalytic transformations in these devices are a stable…
The impacts of climate change will exacerbate humanitarian crises at a global level, and there is an urgent need to eliminate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the power system infrastructure. While deploying clean energy resources in the current grid will help in decarbonizat…
Photovoltaics are at the forefront of new additions of renewable energy, driven by rapid integration of new technologies most significantly a transition from traditional Al-BSF to higher efficiency PERC silicon cells. As they are a more modern technology, PERC cells do not have …
Eswatini is a country that is currently highly dependent on South Africa for the supply of electricity. Eswatini imports on average 80% of electricity from South Africa annually. Additionally, Eswatini Electricity Company only utilizes hydropower stations to provide for the elec…
Can the California grid support 100% renewables and 100% EVs? Rigorous analysis in this area says the answer is yes, but this would require large energy storage and charging EVs during the day. Doubling green energy imports, such as Canadian hydro, will be also required. This th…
Performance-Based Design (PBD) has gained popularity as a procedure for the seismic design of structures. In order to achieve the objectives of PBD, it is essential to have accurate modelling approaches. Non-linear Time History Analysis (NLTHA) is the most complex technique that…
O Volver do Paço ao Mar é uma reflexão critica, que foca o património histórico e cultural da Vila de Paço d’Arcos, a sua posição na história de Portugal e no contexto abrangente da grande Lisboa , como ponto de partida para uma proposta de reordenamento espacial da frente marít…
Energy justice frameworks and approaches build upon the foundation developed by environmental justice scholarship and activism to combat energy-related disparities. Disparities in access to modern energy services and technologies across nations have motivated contemporary approa…
מאז גילוי והפקת הנפט בשנות השלושים של המאה ה-20 עלתה חשיבותן של מדינות המפרץ, שעד אז היו בשולי המזרח התיכון כלכלית ופוליטית כאחת. הפקת הנפט אפשרה למדינות אלו להתעצם כלכלית ולהפוך לגורם משמעותי בכלכלה האזורית כמו גם העולמית. עם עליית חשיבותו של הנפט והפיכתו למקור ההכנסה העיקרי של…
In conjunction with the continuity equation, the Cauchy equation forms the basis in formulating existing wind turbine (WT) aerodynamics theories such as the actuator disk (ADT), rotating annular stream-tube (RAST) and blade element momentum (BEMT) theories. An alternative vortex…
A pesar de que en Chile la pobreza energética es un problema multidimensional de larga data y de grave implicancia en la calidad de vida de las personas, recientemente se adoptó una definición de acceso, calidad y equidad de la energía, donde una vivienda se encuentra en pobreza…
Thermal energy storage is a major contributor to bridge the gap between energy demand (consumption) and energy production (supply) by concentrating solar power. The utilization of high latent heat storage capability of phase change materials is one of the keys to an efficient wa…
This dissertation explores governance in Pakistan through a study of the state-run electrical power sector. At both the micro and macro level, the Pakistani power sector provides a lens into the heart of the Pakistani state and its governance institutions. This ethnographic and …
