Therefore, countries produce different energy policies to manage their energy resources. Determining appropriate, feasible, and controllable energy policies becomes important especially for buildings, as being one of the most significant energy consumers. Green building certification systems (GBCSs) are one of the most common applications for energy efficiency in the building sector. Purpose This paper is a comparative analysis of GBCSs in developed and developing countries, in an effort to establish the similarities and differences between Turkey’s first national GBCS – B.E.S.T and other GBCSs, and to determine how the energy criteria in GBCSs contribute to each dimension of sustainability (i.e., environmental, economic, social). Design/Methodology/Approach The research methodology depends on the literature review and documentary review on energy-related regulations, legislation, and laws. A comparative analysis of GBCSs was conducted in the study. Not only the sub-criteria directly exist under the energy criterion, but also indirect energy criteria, which are included in the sub-criteria of all other criteria within the GBCS, were numerically evaluated with the helped of developed matrix. Findings The results show that energy credits were given the highest weight by LEED (~33%) in international GBCSs and by GRIHA (~42%) in national GBCSs. In B.E.S.T, this is ~29%. It was determined that B.E.S.T was structurally similar to LEED, while it was similar to BREEAM in terms of weight and importance given to the energy criteria. According to the developing country GBCSs, the biggest similarity is seen with GBI. In terms of SD, it is found that GBCSs present similar characteristics to their regional development level. Where a GBCS serves for a developing region, the main concerns of energy criteria focus on the intersection of its environmental and economic aspects. Thus, B.E.S.T has been created in a similar structure and the highest share (%80) on environmental-economic aspects. Research Limitations In the study, the comparison was made between selected international GBCSs like BREEAM, LEED, and DGNB and national GBCSs like GM, GBI, and GRIHA. Practical Implications In practice, the results can help owners or developers to focus on which energy criteria contribute economic, social or environmental advantage for them. Social Implications This study also provides some recommendations for further application and academic studies of B.E.S.T. Originality/Value Increasing the recognition of Turkey’s national GBCS in scientific researches and contributing to the development of it have made this study original and unique.","PeriodicalId":337638,"journal":{"name":"EngRN: Materials in Energy (Topic)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129301976","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While epitaxial films reveal characteristic elastic – ideal plastic deformation with no dislocation storage and highly repeatable cycles, polycrystalline films show considerable hardening upon cooling in addition to the relaxation by diffusional creep at elevated temperatures. In the present study, we study the deformation characteristics of an electron beam deposited epitaxial nanotwinned Ag on Si (111) substrate. The twin spacing λ of the nanotwinned Ag is controlled by suitable heat treatment and the “signature” thermomechanical deformation curves by wafer curvature measurements are recorded for twin spacings varying from 20 nm to 1 μm. Further, deformation is compared to other small scale deformation studies on fcc metals such as epitaxial bicrystal films, bicrystal micropillars containing a coherent twin boundary and nanotwinned micropillars.","PeriodicalId":337638,"journal":{"name":"EngRN: Materials in Energy (Topic)","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117118801","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There are many different modulation algorithms, which make it possible to obtain different indicators of the sinusoidal output voltage and different content of the higher harmonics. This paper reports a universal modulation algorithm, which makes it possible to obtain the shape of the output voltage of a multilevel inverter at any number of stages, optimized for the content of the higher harmonics, namely a minimum of the coefficient of harmonic distortions. The proposed algorithm enables obtaining the lowest possible THD for any level voltage. The advantage of the proposed algorithm compared to similar optimization algorithms is ensuring smaller harmonic distortions, as well as its relative simplicity. The reported algorithm is based on the amplitude modulation of the sine signal with a 25 % modulation relative to the highest discreteness. The analytical expressions have been given that make it possible to determine the time (angle) of enabling each level of the output voltage to form a minimum of the root mean square value of higher harmonics. To confirm the optimum analytic point, the MATLAB/Simulink programming environment was employed to design a series of multi-level voltage inverters, which form the five-, seven-, nine-, and eleven-level shapes of output voltage. The current study has shown that the optimum points for all shapes of multilevel voltages are achieved at the same coefficient of amplitude modulation. It has been demonstrated that the proposed modulation algorithm could also be used to control the amplitude and frequency of the output voltage in a multilevel inverter.

Networks of gathering lines are likely to face the economic problem of double marginalization, whereby it is more expensive to run a pipe of a given length through a geographic area that is owned by multiple parties than it would be if the area were owned by a single party, ceteris paribus. Due to the economics of double marginalization, gathering lines may be placed so as to avoid paths with multiple property owners. I formalize this using a simple game theoretic model, and explore this theory empirically in Bradford County, Pennsylvania, a jurisdiction that has recently experienced a dramatic increase in natural gas production due to recent innovations in drilling. In Bradford, I observe the locations of recently drilled gas wells and, importantly, gathering lines for a single cross-section of the county taken in 2012. I combine these data with data on tax parcel boundaries in order to investigate whether the paths taken by gathering lines are influenced by parcel ownership patterns in ways consistent with the economic theory of double marginalization.","PeriodicalId":337638,"journal":{"name":"EngRN: Materials in Energy (Topic)","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125645767","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed measure makes it possible to monitor the dynamics of the gas environment state and to identify dangerous states caused by the emergence of fires in the premises at a facility. It has been shown that the gas environment in the premises a means for the transition of impacts from a source of ignition when danger appears in the form of a fire. We verified the proposed method using an example of detecting danger in the form of ignitions of alcohol and paper in a model chamber, which simulated a no hermetic location of an object. It has been established that the estimation of the probability of recurrence of increments in the states of the gas environment tends to increase from zero to 0.5 for alcohol and 0.6 for paper before the moment of the start of a fire. One should note that a sharp and periodic change in the probability estimate is characteristic of the growth trend in the estimation of the probability of recurrence of increments in the gas environment state. It was revealed that there is a random change of phase states corresponding to the mode of the dynamic stability in the dynamics of increments before the emergence of a danger caused by the ignition of a material. The estimate of the probability of recurrence of increments becomes close to zero when danger emerges in the form of ignition of a material. Such a situation corresponds to the loss of dynamic stability of the state of the gas environment. After that, there are the individual random recurrence points, which belong to the region of the main diagonal of the recurrence plot in the dynamics of increments. Further development of the danger under consideration leads to the chaotic nature of increments in the gas environment state. It has been shown that monitoring the dynamics of increments of the states of the gas environment makes it possible to identify the moments of the emergence of a danger caused by the ignition of materials in the premises at a facility. The above indicates the efficiency of the proposed method to prevent emergencies caused by fires at facilities by early detection of ignitions of materials based on the identification of moments when the stability of increments of the states of the gas environment in the premises is disrupted","PeriodicalId":337638,"journal":{"name":"EngRN: Materials in Energy (Topic)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130435279","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Research of the TGV-200 turbogenerator rotor heating in case of rotor winding damages, which occur as a result of prolonged operation of the turbogenerator, namely - clogging of the ventilation channels of the rotor winding and the occurrence of short circuits of the rotor windings.

Experiment shows that the change in boiling point of the solvent above a solution from that of the pure solvent is directly proportional to the molal concentration of the solute.
