Energy harvesting from energy sources is a rapidly developing cost-effective and sustainable technique for powering low-energy consumption devices such as wireless sensor networks, RFID, IoT devices, and wearable electronics. Although these devices c...

With the gradual emergence of trends such as the asynchronous interconnection of power grids and the increasing penetration of renewable energy, the issues of ultra-low-frequency oscillations and low-frequency stability in power grids have become mor...

In this paper, a meticulous modeling approach is proposed not only for a fuel cell stack itself but also for all auxiliary components that collectively form the fuel cell system. This comprehensive modeling approach encompasses a wide range of compon...

During the modulation process of the VSI motor drive system, the nonlinear errors caused by the dead-time and conduction voltage drop will increase the phase current harmonic distortion and the torque ripple. To solve this problem, a novel dead-time...

After the completion of in situ pyrolysis, oil shale can be used as a natural place for CO2 sequestration. However, the effects of chemical action and formation stress-state changes on the deformation of oil shale should be considered when CO2 is inj...

Wave energy conversion holds promise for renewable energy, but challenges like high initial costs hinder commercialization. Integrating wave-energy converters (WECs) into shore-protection structures creates dual-function structures for both electrici...

In line with Africa’s commitment to keeping up with the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, achieving a sustainable future requires balancing economic growth with environmental sustainability. This study investigates the long...

The rapid development of renewable energy presents challenges to the security and stability of power systems. Aiming at addressing the power system scheduling problem with load demand and wind power uncertainty, this paper proposes the establishment...

Despite the extensive research on biodiesels, further investigation is warranted on the impact of compression ratios on emissions and engine performance. This study addresses this gap by evaluating the effects of increasing the engine’s compres...

Natural gas hydrate (NGH) trials have been performed successfully with different development methods and gas recovery drainage technologies. Multiphase flow in a wellbore and the drainage of natural gas hydrate are two important parts for its whole e...
