WIND/WAVE TESTING OF A 1:70-SCALE PERFORMANCE-MATCHED MODEL OF THE IEA WIND 15 MW REFERENCE WIND TURBINE WITH REAL-TIME ROSCO CONTROL AND FLOATING FEEDBACK

Experimental results from the Floating Offshore-wind and Controls Advanced Laboratory (FOCAL) experimental program, which tested a performance-matched model of 248 the IEA Wind 15 MW Reference Turbine on a 1:70 scale floating semisubmersible platform, are compared with OpenFAST simulations.Four experimental campaigns were performed, and data from t

Many governments and private projects sunscreen are done by contractor.They get projects in a competitive bid auction environment.A contractor in order to overcome to other competitors in a bid auction, opportunely cuts down biding price(bids project at or below minimum profit level) and wins the contract, and hopes to recover the loss (or less pro

Dry-distillation trials of five wood species from East Kalimantan were conducted at the forest products laboratories.Bogor.and the characteristics of the products (i.e.charcoal, tar and distillate fractions) were assessed to explore their possible uses as a fuel (the source of energy), activated charcoal.carbon-based fibers, metallurgy (smelter), d

Abstract The pygmy toad genus Poyntonophrynus is endemic to southern Africa.The morphology of these small toads is conserved.They are usually 1125 dully colored, and are predominately adapted to arid conditions.During recent surveys in Angola we found Poyntonophrynus specimens that were not assignable to known species.Using an integrative approach,
