Wind power forecasting (WPF) is frequently identified as an important tool to address the variability and uncertainty in wind power and to more efficiently operate power systems with large wind power penetrations. Moreover, in a market environment, the wind power contribution to the generation ...
found that the Martian soil has high bearing strength and cohesion evidence of wind erosion after studying the surface rocks imaged by the rover's cameras. They also identified landscapes such as ridges, ripples and eroded craters, indicating that the site has been subject to long ...
Storing desalinated water within a strategic aquifer storage and recovery system has been identified as a potential cost-effective solution for the Gulf Council Cooperation (GCC) countries. In this study, we investigated a wind-driven reverse osmosis (RO) scheme to create fresh water for ASR. Th...
The timing of stall onset θ*, identified as the moment when the power coefficient drops below zero after the upwind power generation phase, is delayed from θ* = 125° (t/T = 0.35) in the non-actuated case to 180° < θ* < 190° (0.50 < t/T < ...
The heliosphere is identified as an important shield against interstellar influences and hazards. It has been demonstrated by quantitative modelling that a change of the interstellar medium surrounding the heliosphere as a result of the Sun's quasi-Keplerian motion around the galactic center triggers ...
As discussed in the present study, the hymnic song entitled “Herensi” can be identified as a descriptive account of “ningfeng”, as it provides elaborate descriptions of appeasing violent wind, thus explaining the origin of this hymn. Moreover, “Herensi” should not be seen as the only...
Due to the characteristics of hilly topography, the capacity of usable surface land in Hong Kong is extremely limited and it has been identified as a major impediment that prevents Hong Kong to develop steadily. Under the circumstances, the Government actively explores approaches to minimize the ...
We identified regions with high power densities, low seasonal variability, and limited weather fluctuations that favor wind power generation, such as the American Midwest, Australia, the Sahara, Argentina, Central Asia, and Southern Africa. Northwestern Europe has high power densities but experiences ...
Along with the commercialization of offshore wind energy in China, the South China Sea has been identified as ideal for constructing offshore wind farms, especially for farms consisting of floating wind turbines over deep waters. Since the wind profiles and wave spectra are somewhat primitive for ...
1). Coal is identified as a critical source for baseload power for four of the five regions considered: west (98 GW), south (44 GW), east (43 GW), and north (41 GW). Storage plays a significant role in the northeast, accounting for as much as 20% of the overall ...
