Heterostructures composed of two-dimensional materials open new avenues for advancing semiconductor technology, particularly in the development of energy-efficient tunnel field effect transistors (TFETs). Here, we employ density functional theory calculations to investigate the electronic behavior...

Ammonia (NH₃) is a practical hydrogen vector for gas turbine power generation, but struggles to be deployed commercially due to many unresolved technical and fundamental challenges. This experimental investigation focuses on combustion of fuel blends representatives of various NH₃ decomposition (or...

Microbiome-directed dietary interventions such as microbiota-directed fibers (MDFs) have a proven track record in eliciting responses in beneficial gut microbes and are increasingly being promoted as an effective strategy to improve animal production systems. Here we used initial metataxonomic data...

This study informs about power fluctuations caused by wind turbulence that should be expected from a 15MW floating offshore wind turbine in the context of power supply to an isolated grid with energy storage. To this end, appropriate engineering models are used to screen through normal wind...

A mid-fidelity simulation framework for large offshore wind farms has been developed at SINTEF, for the efficient joint modelling of active power control and structural degradation due to fatigue damage. It bridges two fields of research that are traditionally split: grid integration and...

Distributed and collaborative machine learning over emerging IoT networks is complicated by resource constraints, device and data heterogeneity, and the need for personalized models that cater to the individual needs of each network device. This complexity becomes even more pronounced when new...

Catalytic methane decomposition (CMD) offers an eco-friendly method to produce COx-free hydrogen and solid carbon. An innovative approach for catalyst regeneration involves utilizing CO₂ as a reactant to produce CO via the Reverse Boudouard Reaction, which serves as a valuable feedstock for various...

Standards are critically important for smartening the grid because they affect the interoper-ability, compatibility, efficiency, and realisation of new technologies and services. In this paper we assess the contribution of EU funded Horizon 2020 projects to adapting or initiating new Smart Grid...

Leading edge erosion of turbine blades is hypothesized to be a source of microplastic (MP; 1-5000 µm) emissions from offshore wind farms (OWFs) to the marine environment. Given the higher density of rotor blade coating and leading-edge protection (LEP) materials than seawater, released MP are...

Investigations are presented on development and testing of ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC), suitable for large-scale production in standard industrial equipment for mixing and transportation of conventional ready-mix concrete (RMC) and based on locally produced constituents. Experiments were...
