Individual blade pitch control strategies for spar-type floating offshore wind turbines
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Disc of Civil Structural & Environmental Eng, 2020)The aim of this thesis is to study the dynamics of spar-type Floating Offshore Wind Turbines (FOWTs) and investigate the performance of the individual blade pitch control strategies proposed to improve dynamic response of ... -
Indoor Characterisation of a Photovoltaic/ Thermal Phase Change Material System
(2015)Photovoltaic/ thermal (PV/T) systems integrate photovoltaic and solar thermal technologies and have the added advantage of producing both electrical and thermal energy simultaneously. This study has been carried out to ... -
Indoor/outdoor air quality relationship in urban commercial buildings
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). Department of Civil, Structural and Environmental Engineering, 2013)The United Nations urban environmental unit associates up to 1 million premature deaths annually to urban air pollution (United Nations Environment Programme, 2010). Much research on indoor environments has focused on ... -
Inertial and bias effects in the rotational brownian motion of rodlike molecules in a uniaxial potential.
(2011)Inertial effects in the rotational Brownian motion in space of a rigid dipolar rotator (needle) in a uniaxial potential biased by an external field giving rise to asymmetry are treated via the infinite hierarchy of ... -
Inertial effects in anomalous dielectric relaxation
(American Physical Society, 2002)The inertia corrected Debye model of rotational Brownian motion of polar molecules is generalized to fractional dynamics (anomalous diffusion) in the context of the fractional Klein-Kramers equation. The fractal generalization ... -
Inertial effects in anomalous dielectric relaxation of symmetrical top molecules
(American Physical Society, 2004)The linear dielectric response of an assembly of noninteracting symmetrical top molecules (each of which is free to rotate in space) is evaluated in the context of fractional dynamics. The infinite hierarchy of ... -
