Pipeline insulation is critical for energy-efficient building heating systems, as moisture ingress significantly degrades thermal performance and increases energy losses. This study experimentally evaluated how quality characteristics of mineral wool...

The use of conventional fuel sources from the Earth to generate electrical power leads to several environmental issues such as carbon emissions and ozone depletion. Energy generation from renewable energy sources is one of the most affordable and cle...

In light of the ambitious “dual carbon” targets, the refined oil supply chain faces challenges in balancing economic viability with environmental sustainability. Traditional resource allocation methods predominantly prioritize cost minimi...

Rising global population, socioeconomic development, industrialisation, lifestyle changes, mobility, and transportation all depend on fossil fuels. This reliance creates environmental pollution, CO2 emissions, depletion of fossil fuel resources, ener...

The transition to a sustainable energy system is crucial to meet climate targets and reduce fossil fuel dependence. Solar hydrogen systems offer a promising route for renewable hydrogen production. This study presents a techno-economic assessment of...

As the core subsystem of high-speed trains, the reliable operation of the traction system is critical to ensuring train safety. To enhance fault detection performance, this study proposes a probability-related slow feature analysis (PRSFA) method tha...

This work presents a two-level Energy Management System (EMS) for Renewable Energy Communities (RECs) combining rule-based local control with Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) coordination. A central Energy Management Hub (CEMH) uses digital twins of...

This study presents an integrated techno-economic and environmental assessment of shaft generator (SG) integration in marine propulsion systems using alternative fuels. A comprehensive numerical model is developed to simulate the operation of a bulk...

Hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) is an effective method for processing wet sewage sludge without prior drying. This study investigates the influence of temperature (200 °C and 210 °C), residence time (15 and 30 min), and pH (neutral and acidi...

The growing interest in high-voltage direct current (HVDC) technology and multi-terminal HVDCs (MTDCs) has motivated the evaluation of DC circuit breakers (DCCBs) for increased operational flexibility. While modeling DCCBs remains essential, their co...
