Abstract:

Wave energy converters are still a maturing technology and, as such, still face a series of challenges before they can compete with already-established technologies. One of these challenges is optimising the amount of energy extracted from the waves and delivered to the power grid.

Abstract:

One of the most encouraging sorts of renewable energy is ocean wave energy. In spite of a large number of investigations in this field during the last decade, wave energy technologies are recognised as neither mature nor broadly commercialised compared to other renewable energy technologies.

Abstract This paper provides a method that helps the aircraft designer to develop a performance constraint chart (PCC) for vertical/short takeoff and landing (V/STOL) aircraft that produce hybrid lift (static lift in combination with aerodynamic lift). The PPC provides a first estimation for the thrust-to-weight ratio (T 0/MTOW) and wing loading (MTOW/S). The method is applicable to concepts, where static lift and main-engine thrust are coupled (e.g. the F-35B system, turbojet and lift-fan, coupled by a shaft) and to concepts, where static lift is produced by separate devices (e.g. lift-engine

We also wanted to check if the range of upper body motion is a determinant in the efficiency of the spike consisting in a high striking point and a remakable hitting force.

Different are currently in operation, such as the Mutriku Wave Power Plant installed in a harbour, or are being developed, such as the MARMOK floating OWC device developed by IDOM and tested for over a year in the Biscay Marine Energy Platform (BIMEP). One of the key elements of the OWC technologies is the

Abstract:

Approximate Computing Techniques (ACTs) take advantage of resilience computing applications to trade off between output precision, area, power and performance. ACTs can lead to significant gains at affordable costs when efficiently implemented on FPGA-based accelerators. Although several novel ACTs works have been proposed for FPGA accelerators, their applicability to high-assurance systems has not been explored as much. ACTs are becoming necessary in many critical Edge computing systems, such as self-driving cars and Earth observation satellites, to increase computational efficiency. However,

Abstract:

Wave energy systems are designed to maximise energy absorption from the oscillatory motion of waves, which can make a crucial contribution in a new carbon free generation matrix [1]. Thus, the global ocean energy market (including wave and tidal) is expected to grow by more than 700\% by 2028 [2]. However, the harsh conditions faced in the ocean, the strong variability of the resource, and the high force/velocity ratios pose significant challenges to the development of the different ocean energy technologies. Therefore, to date, wave energy converter (WEC) technology is still under development

Abstract:

The People's Salvation Cathedral (Catedrala Mântuirii Neamului) is the main house of worship of the Romanian Orthodox Church. It is located on top of Arsenal Hill, in Bucharest's city centre, surrounded by important state institutions: the Palace of the Parliament eastwards, the Romanian Academy of Sciences south-east and the Ministry of Defence westwards. The cathedral was first conceived in 1881 by King Carol I to celebrate the independence gained against the Ottoman which led to the establishment of the new-born Kingdom of Romania.

Abstract:

Internet Relay Chat (IRC) is a text-based computer-mediated communication (CMC) service in which people can meet and chat in real time. Most chat occurs in channels named for a specific topic, such as #usa or #linux. A user can take part in several channels when connected to an IRC network. For a long time the only major IRC network available was EFnet, founded in 1990. Over the 1990s three other major IRC networks developed, Undernet (1993), DALnet (1994) and IRCnet (which split from EFnet in June 1996). Several causes led to the separate development of IRC networks: fast growth of user numbe

Do we eat what we are, or are we what we eat? Do we eat or are we eaten? In less cryptic terms, in eating, do we confirm our identities, or are our identities reforged, and refracted by what and how we eat? In posing these questions, I want to shift the terms of current debates about identity. I want to signal that the study of identity may take on new insights when we look at how we are or want to be in terms of what, how, and with whom we eat. If the analysis of identity has by and large been conducted through the optic of sex, it may well be that in western societies we are witnessing a shi

IntroductionAs both a historical and cultural entity, the city of New Orleans has long-maintained a reputation as a centre for hedonistic and carnivaleque pleasures. Historically, images of mardi gras, jazz, and parties on the shores of the Mississippi have pervaded the cultural vision of the city as a “mecca” for “social life” (Marina 2), and successfully fed its tourism narratives. Simultaneously, however, a different kind of narrative also exists in the historical folds of the city’s urban mythology. Many tales of vampire sightings and supernatural accounts surround the area, and have contr

Abstract:

Discussing the interaction between representation and narrative structures, Anthony Mandal argues that the Gothic has always been “an intrinsically intertextual genre” (Mandal 350). From its inception, the intertextuality of the Gothic has taken many and varied incarnations, from simple references and allusions between texts—dates, locations, characters, and “creatures”—to intricate and evocative uses of style and plot organisation. And even though it would be unwise to reduce the Gothic “text” to a simple master narrative, one cannot deny that, in the midst of re-elaborations and re-interpret

This essay combines life writing with meditations on the significance of walking as integral to the ritual practice of pilgrimage, where the individual improves her soul or health through the act of walking to a shrine containing healing relics of a saint. Braiding together insights from medieval literature, contemporary ecocriticism, and memory studies, I reflect on my own pilgrimage practice as it impacts the land itself. Canterbury, England serves as the central shrine for four pilgrimages over decades: 1966, 1994, 1997, and 2003.The act of memory was not invented in the Anthropocene. Rathe
