De maatschappelijke acceptatie van compressed air energy storage

Bachelorthesis waar de maatschappelijke acceptatie van de energie opslagtechniek compressed air energy storage (CAES) is onderzocht met behulp van Structural Equation Modeling. CAES kan als opslagtechniek bijdragen aan het verhelpen van de variabiliteit en onvoorspelbaarheid van een duurzame energievoorziening. Bij CAES wordt elektriciteit in de...

Small scale Compressed Air Energy Storage application for renewable energy integration in a listed building

In EU where the architectural heritage is significant, enhancing the energy performance of historical buildings is of great interest. Constraints, such as the lack of space especially within the historical centers and architectural peculiarities, make the application of technologies for renewable energy production and storage a challenging issue...

Optimization of rear low-speed crash structures for a Solar Electric Vehicle

A Solar Electric Vehicle is a vehicle that receives a significant amount of its total energy consumption through sunlight gathered using solar arrays. The main objective of this thesis was to determine how the design of the rear low-speed crash structures should be different for a Solar Electric Vehicle, compared to conventional cars. This is...

IGA-Reuse-NET: A deep-learning-based isogeometric analysis-reuse approach with topology-consistent parameterization[Formula presented]

In this paper, a deep learning framework combined with isogeometric analysis (IGA for short) called IGA-Reuse-Net is proposed for efficient reuse of numerical simulation on a set of topology-consistent models. Compared with previous data-driven numerical simulation methods only for simple computational domains, our method can predict high...
