Wastewater as a thermal resource: Exploitation strategies, design methodologies & prototype development
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Disc of Civil Structural & Environmental Eng, 2020)The disruption of the climate was identified as one of nine planetary boundaries, and is one for which we are reaching the limits of safe operation on this planet. To that effect the European Commission launched the European ... -
Enhances design of offshore wind energy gravity based structure foundations
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Disc of Civil Structural & Environmental Eng, 2020)The offshore wind is set for substantial growth globally in the coming decades. The use of Gravity-based foundations (GBF), although only 3.3% of the current installed fleet is due increase to 8.4% in the coming years. To ... -
Pump-as-turbines for hydropower energy recovery from on-demand irrigation networks: Flow fluctuation characterisation, energy potential extrapolation, and real-scale implementation.
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Disc of Civil Structural & Environmental Eng, 2020)More water efficient irrigation techniques have been studied and developed during the last decades, and are becoming of significant importance in arid and semi-arid regions, as these are leading to more energy intensive ... -
A review of the engineering constraints and project management challenges involved in utilising Scot’s Church as a heritage asset through responsible adaptive reuse and conservation strategies
In the field of structural building, there has been a rising popularity in adaptive reuse of older structures, which stems from a variety of stimuli. Apart from preserving built heritage, providing old buildings with new ... -
Metal Nanoparticles for application in Luminescent Solar Concentrators
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Disc of Civil Structural & Environmental Eng, 2020)Rising global temperature calls for innovative ways to deal with the ever-growing energy demand. Luminescent Solar Concentrators (LSC) are low concentration, solar radiation collectors. LSCs have the potential to be used ...
