Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Strategic Study on the Environmental Impacts of Wind Turbine Blade Materials, their Improvements, Economics and End-Life-OptionsOjshwi Prakash, Godwin Glivin, N. Kalaiselvan, V. MariappanWind energy is a great alternative to solar energy (During monsoon) along with conventional non-renewable energy sources and has a potential market growing exponentially. Modern 3 Blade HAWTs are most dominant in the market and have high efficiency. Blades are 15 to 20% of the cost of the wind turbine unit and also exposed to the environment. Therefore it is … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 13 Nov 2020 · 8,371 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Systematic Study of the Novel Materials used in Solar Cell Technologies, Opportunities and ChallengesAayush Kumar Choudhary, Godwin Glivin, N. Kalaiselvan et al.This study aims to review the present progress of integrating the PV cell with other prominent mainstream photovoltaic cell materials. The combination of the materials in a thin film electric cell is advantageous due to the reduction within the material usage and therefore the rise in efficiency. Amorphous Silicon (α-Si), Cadmium Telluride (CdTe) and Copper Indium Gallium Selenide (CIGS) are … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 2 Nov 2020 · 7,362 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact Behavior of High Strength Concrete Slabs with Pozzolana as Coarse AggregateMahmoud B.A. Alhasanat, Arabi N. Al QadiThis research goal is the adding of pozzolana as rough aggregate in concrete. Pozzolans of Jabl Onyzh have been described as the major supply from Jordan. It is often used in the place of a conservative aggregate in frivolous concrete. A practical examination was carried out on the resistance of Pozzolana Lightweight Concrete (PLWC) with diverse ratios (35 and 50%) … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 6 · 14 Jun 2016 · 7,126 accessesView PDFCite
