Water splitting for hydrogen and syngas production over a novel bi-layer perovskite membrane
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2019)Increasing consumption of fossil fuel leads to challenging environmental problems. Novel technologies are required to curtail CO 2 emissions. Mixed ionic-electronic conducting (MIEC) membrane is one of the most promising ... -
Wave effects on underwater vehicles in shallow water
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUV's) need to work in shallow water to complete oceanographic missions, coastal engineering surveys, and in military operations that involve reconnaissance and the location of mines along ... -
Wave energy converter design via a time-domain Rankine panel method
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)Efficient design of energy converters heavily depends on the capacity of the designer to accurately predict the device's dynamic, which ultimately leads to the power extraction. This is specially true for wave energy ... -
Wave loads on offshore wind turbines
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Ocean energy is one of the most important sources of alternative energy and offshore floating wind turbines are considered viable and economical means of harnessing ocean energy. The accurate prediction of nonlinear ... -
Wavelet based similarity measurement algorithm for seafloor morphology
