Like many vertical-axis wind turbines (vawts) of the Darrieus type, Turby fails to achieve a fully passive start-up. Experiments indicate that there is a band of negative torque—often referred to as dead band in literature—somewhere in the tip speed range 0.5 B l B 1.6. The reason behind this is that, unfortunately, the power coefficient...

The wetlands in the Mississippi delta (USA) are drastically subsiding and eroding. Many projects and researches are ongoing to determine how this “drowning effect” of the delta can be stopped. One of the solutions that could be feasible is implementing sediment diversions in the levees of the Lower Mississippi River in order to divert sediment...

Structural bearings in bridges are subjected to loads and movements, causing wear of bearing components as PTFE-sheets, guides and internal seals. Nowadays, these components are tested for durability according to EN 1337. The parameters and procedures in these tests are questioned and, therefore, investigated in an existing plate-girder bridge...
