Dielectric elastomer generators (DEGs) are soft electrostatic generators based on low-cost electroactive polymer materials. These devices have attracted the attention of the marine energy community as a promising solution to implement economically viable wave energy converters (WECs). This paper introduces a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation framework for a class of WECs that combines the concept of the oscillating water columns (OWCs) with the DEGs. The proposed HIL system replicates in a laboratory environment the realistic operating conditions of an OWC/DEG plant, while drastically reducing the experimental burden compared to wave tank or sea tests. The HIL simulator is driven by a closed-loop real-time hydrodynamic model that is based on a novel coupling criterion which allows rendering a realistic dynamic response for a diversity of scenarios, including large scale DEG plants, whose dimensions and topologies are largely different from those available in the HIL setup. A case study is also introduced, which simulates the application of DEGs on an OWC plant installed in a mild real sea laboratory test-site. Comparisons with available real sea-test data demonstrated the ability of the HIL setup to effectively replicate a realistic operating scenario. The insights gathered on the promising performance of the analysed OWC/DEG systems pave the way to pursue further sea trials in the future.
Mixed fermentation using Starmerella bacillaris and Saccharomyces cerevisiae has gained attention in recent years due to their ability to modulate the qualitative parameters of enological interest, such as the color intensity and stability of wine. In this study, three of the most important red Apulian varieties were fermented through two pure inoculations of Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains or the sequential inoculation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae after 48 h from Starmerella bacillaris. The evolution of anthocyanin profiles and chromatic characteristics were determined in the produced wines at draining off and after 18 months of bottle aging in order to assess the impact of the different fermentation protocols on the potential color stabilization and shelf-life. The chemical composition analysis showed titratable acidity and ethanol content exhibiting marked differences among wines after fermentation and aging. The 48 h inoculation delay produced wines with higher values of color intensity and color stability. This was ascribed to the increased presence of compounds, such as stable A-type vitisins and reddish/violet ethylidene-bridge flavonol-anthocyanin adducts, in the mixed fermentation. Our results proved that the sequential fermentation of Starmerella bacillaris and Saccharomyces cerevisiae could enhance the chromatic profile as well as the stability of the red wines, thus improving their organoleptic quality. 相似文献
Summary In this paper a tensorial formulation of monoenergetic neutron diffusion theory is presented as can be derived starting from the integral form of the Boltzmann equation. A result of this tensorial approach is that, as a consequence of a spatial variation of the macroscopic cross sections or of the finite dimensions of the body under examination, the diffusion coefficient is no longer a constant scalar quantity, but a second order symmetric tensor, whose components are functions of both the position and the properties of the material the body is made of. The components of the diffusion coefficient tensor are explicitly evaluated in the case of some homogeneous convex bodies.
Sommario In questa nota viene presentata una formulazione tensoriale della teoria della diffusione di neutroni monoenergetici, quale può essere dedotta a partire dalla forma integrale dell'equazione di Boltzmann. Nell'ambito di questa formulazione si precisa che il coefficiente di diffusione, in conseguenza di una variazione regolare delle sezioni d'urto macroscopiche con la posizione o delle dimensioni finite del mezzo in esame, non è più una quantità scalare costante, ma un tensore simmetrico del secondo ordine, le cui componenti sono funzioni della posizione e delle proprietà del materiale. Queste componenti vengono calcolate esplicitamente per alcuni mezzi omogenei convessi.

Screening parameters to be used in Slater Type Orbitals were obtained in analytic form. The values compared well with the numerical results given by Clementi and Roetti (after a laborious process of optimization) and with the phenomenological values of Jung and Gould. The analytic formulation is based on the splitting of the two-body operator 1/rst as the sum of effective one-body operators. 相似文献
