Numerical Investigation of Bubble Induced Marangoni Convection: Some Aspects of Bubble Geometry
(2008)
Thermocapillary or Marangoni convection is a surface tension driven flow that occurs when a gas–liquid or vapor–liquid interface is subjected to a temperature gradient. In the past, the contribution to local heat transfer ...
Physics-Informed Neural Network surrogate model for bypassing Blade Element Momentum theory in wind turbine aerodynamic load estimation
(2024)
This paper proposes the use of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), specifically Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs), for dynamic surrogate modelling of wind turbines. PINNs offer the flexibility to model complex ...
Addressing the Mapping Problem in Sonic Information Design through Embodied Image Schemata, Conceptual Metaphors, and Conceptual Blending
(2018)
This article explores the mapping problem in parameter mapping sonification: the problem of how to map data to sound in a way that conveys meaning to the listener. We contend that this problem can be addressed by considering ...
Multi-resolution wavelet pitch controller for spar-type floating offshore wind turbines including wave-current interactions
(2020)
This paper proposes a wavelet multi-resolution based individual pitch control strategy for spar-type floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) and investigates its performance under joint wind-wave-current loads considering ...
Numerical optimization of unsteady natural convection heat transfer from a pair of horizontal cylinders
(2016)
This paper presents the results of a numerical study of unsteady natural convection
heat transfer from a pair of isothermally heated horizontal cylinders in water. In conjunction
with the developed ...
Assessment of the parametric roll behaviour of a point absorber wave energy conversion device in irregular waves.
(2017)
The response of the Wavebob wave energy conversion device has investigated
numerically in long crested irregular waves generated using the JONSWAP wave spectrum.
Only long crested waves are considered as the roll mode ...
A re-examination of the life and work of A.F.G. Kerr and of his colleagues and friends
(2015)
Arthur Francis George Kerr’s life is reviewed and related to a previously published account. Kerr’s collecting activity is analysed using an expanded version of the Thai Biogeography Group’s database of collections. 8,666 ...
