(author), Karaca, Elisabeth (author), Čepić, Slavica (author), Tomićević-Dubljević, Jelena (author), Bauer, Nicole (author), Petit-Boix, Anna (author), Brantschen, Evelyn Coleman (author)Numerous challenges – from population increase to climate change – threaten the sustainable development of cities and call for a fundamental change of urban development and green-blue resource management. Urban forests are vital in this transition, as they provide various ecosystem services and allow to re-shape and re-think cities. Based on...journal article 2023

Stecca, M. (author), Abdelhakim, Ahmed (author), Soeiro, Thiago B. (author), Canales, Francisco (author), Bauer, P. (author), Palensky, P. (author)This work proposes a hybrid space vector modulation (HSVM) scheme for multiport hybrid converters (MHCs). Moreover, the impact of shifting the auxiliary currents from the main ones is proposed and investigated in order to enhance the converter efficiency. The proposed operational schemes have been implemented in a three-phase 5 kW MHC...journal article 2023

Diab, I. (author), Chandra Mouli, G.R. (author), Bauer, P. (author)When the braking energy in electric transportation grids is not met by another vehicle's demand, it is either harvested by storage systems or wasted in braking resistors. This paper looks at three methods for increasing the amount of harvested braking energy without the use of expensive storage systems: decreasing the substation voltage,...conference paper 2023

Diab, I. (author), Chandra Mouli, G.R. (author), Bauer, P. (author)A typical approach to harvesting the excess braking energy of a railway car has been to use a storage system. However, research momentum has been growing in the direction of integrating smart loads like EV chargers into traction networks, and this can offer a more efficient and economical solution to the harvesting of braking energy. This paper...conference paper 2023

Damianakis, Nikolaos (author), Chandra Mouli, G.R. (author), Bauer, P. (author)An important aspect of the energy transition is the expected grid impact due to the abrupt increase of distributed electric generation and electric load demand. A part of this impact is going to be inflicted by the electrification of heating with heat pumps (HPs). Therefore, it is essential that the future power consumption of electric...conference paper 2023

Diab, I. (author), Saffirio, Alice (author), Chandra Mouli, G.R. (author), Bauer, P. (author)Solar PV systems have so far been the source of choice for the sustainable supply of urban electric transport networks—like trams and trolleybus grids. However, no consensus exists yet on the placement or sizing of PV systems at the traction substations, and no method is available for easy estimation of the PV system utilization performance....journal article 2023

Damianakis, Nikolaos (author), Chandra Mouli, G.R. (author), Bauer, P. (author), Yu, Y. (author)Low Carbon Technologies (LCTs), such as Photovoltaics (PVs), Electric Vehicles (EVs), and Heat Pumps (HPs), are expected to cause a huge electric load in future distribution grids. This paper investigates the grid impact in terms of over-loading and nodal voltage deviations in different distribution grids due to increasing LCT penetrations....journal article 2023

Diab, I. (author), Eggermont, Rik (author), Chandra Mouli, G.R. (author), Bauer, P. (author)The decarbonization of urban bus fleets can be made by their electrification as in-motion-charging (IMC) buses which can run as trolleybuses or in battery mode. The benefit is that IMC buses can use the existing trolleygrid infrastructure where their route overlaps with it to charge the battery and operate in battery mode outside of it....journal article 2023

van der Horst, Koen (author), Diab, I. (author), Chandra Mouli, G.R. (author), Bauer, P. (author)The traction substations of urban electric transport grids are oversized and underutilized in terms of their capacity. While their over-sizing is an unfortunate waste, their under-utilization creates the major hurdle for the integration of renewables into these grids due to the lack of a base load. Therefore, integrating smart grid loads such...journal article 2023

Bauer, Marlinda (author)Due to climate change, the growth in renewable energy is still accelerating and reaching new records each year. Not everything can be electrified, hence, the production of green hydrogen as an energy vector is gaining momentum. However, lowest cost hydrogen will not always be produced at the demand centres, necessitating transport of hydrogen...master thesis 2022

Bauer, Yorrick (author)A loss of vacuum accident in the hyperloop tunnel will likely occur during its operation, and it may have a severe impact on its operational safety. Nevertheless, the hyperloop tube breach has only been researched superficially.<br/><br/>Two aerodynamic phenomena due to the breach are identified: a (quasi-)steady underexpanded jet and an...master thesis 2022
