Prediction of hydro-acoustic resonances in hydropower plants by a new approach based on the concept of swirl number

François Avellan, Christophe Nicolet, Christian Landry, Sébastien Alligné, Joao Gomes Pereira Junior, Arthur Tristan Favrel, Loïc Andolfatto

Hydropower plant units operating in off-design conditions are subject to cavitation flow instabilities, potentially inducing hydro-acoustic resonances under certain conditions. They can be predicted by using one-dimensional numerical models of hydropower p ...

Reduced scale model testing for prediction of eigenfrequencies and hydro-acoustic resonances in hydropower plants operating in off-design conditions

François Avellan, Christophe Nicolet, Christian Landry, Sébastien Alligné, Joao Gomes Pereira Junior, Arthur Tristan Favrel

The massive penetration of the electrical network by renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar, pushes the operators to extend hydropower plant units operating range to meet the transmission system operator requirements. However, in off-design opera ...

How building energy models take the local climate into account in an urban context – A review

Dasaraden Mauree

The urban context is often simplified or neglected in Building Energy Models (BEMs) due to the difficulties of taking accurately into account all the heat fluxes emanating from the environment. Oversimplifying the urban context can impact the accuracy of t ...

Electrical effects in winding of large electrical ac machines application to advanced large size DFIM

Frédéric Michael Maurer

To meet the electrical grid's demand on pump power variation, GE Renewable Energy develops since 10 years variable speed machines (also called Doubly Fed Induction Generators or DFIG). Within turbogenerators, the phenomenon of circulating currents in Roebe ...

Is there a relationship between footstep-impact locations and measured signal characteristics?

Ian Smith, Yves Sylvain Gilles Reuland, Sai Ganesh Sarvotham Pai, Slah Drira

Building utilization can be enhanced by tracking occupants. Non-intrusive tracking of occupants using floor-vibration measurements is beneficial for many smart-building applications such as energy consumption, security enhancement, and care-giving. Also, u ...

Concrete Dam Displacement Prediction Based on an ISODATA-GMM Clustering and Random Coefficient Model

Zhenzhu Meng, Chenfei Shao, Yating Hu

Displacement data modelling is of great importance for the safety control of concrete dams. The commonly used artificial intelligence method modelled the displacement data at each monitoring point individually, i.e., the data correlations between the monit ...

A Method for Converting Current Data to RDF in the Era of Industry 4.0

Dimitrios Kyritsis, Damiano Nunzio Arena, Foivos Psarommatis Giannakopoulos, Ioannis Tourkogiorgis, Marlène Hildebrand-Ehrhardt

In the past two decades, the use of ontologies has been proven to be an effective tool for enriching existing information systems in the digital data modelling domain and exploiting those assets for semantic interoperability. With the rise of Industry 4.0, ...

Application of Association Rules to Determine Building Typological Classes for Seismic Damage Predictions at Regional Scale: The Case Study of Basel

Pierino Lestuzzi, Yves Sylvain Gilles Reuland, Lorenzo Diana

Assessing seismic vulnerability at large scales requires accurate attribution of individual buildings to more general typological classes that are representative of the seismic behavior of the buildings sharing same attributes. One-by-one evaluation of all ...
