Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSmart Retrofit Solutions of Buildings toward a Low Carbon WorldErdem Cuce, Pinar Mert CuceIn this short communication, energy-efficient, eco-friendly and low-cost solutions for existing buildings are considered in a holistic manner toward low/zero carbon building concept of near future. Buildings are still responsible for about 40% of total primary energy consumption in the world, hence decisive measures need to be taken promptly due to growing significance of environmental issues driven by fossil fuel … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 29 Aug 2018 · 7,174 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHybrid Photovoltaic/Thermal (HPV/T) Systems: From Theory to ApplicationsErdem Cuce, Erman Kadir Oztekin, Pinar Mert CuceHybrid photovoltaic/ thermal systems are very promising clean energy harvesting devices where they can be used either standalone system or can be incorporated with other systems. In this study, historical developments leading to current Hybrid Photovoltaic/Thermal (HPV/T) systems as it is used today and global findings to enhance the performance of HPV/T system through state-of-the-art analyses are presented in a … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 29 Jun 2018 · 7,877 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStructure of Buried Ice on MarsRelly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuAfter the older evidence that there is carbon dioxide on Mars made up of oxygen 2 and carbon now we have evidence that there is even normal water on the marble consisting of hydrogen 2 and oxygen. In other words, we have Martian oxygen combined with carbon and hydrogen, so we can extract oxygen directly to the site to initially … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 22 Jan 2018 · 7,214 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNasa Selects Concepts for a New Mission to Titan, the Moon of SaturnRelly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuNasa just has selected two new concepts for some new robotic missions, one of which aims to explore potential landing sites on Saturn’s largest moon, Titan. This first concept is named Dragonfly, which is a drone-like rotorcraft that would use the environment on Titan to fly to a number of locations to sample materials and determine surface composition to examine … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 19 Jan 2018 · 12,012 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSustainable Energy for Aerospace VesselsRelly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Bilal Akash et al.The advances in solar technology and electric propulsion now offer the promise of new, very capable space transport systems that will allow us to effectively explore the solar system. NASA has developed many concepts of space-powered spacecraft with power levels ranging from tens to hundreds of kilowatts for robotic and asteroid-driven missions and Mars. This paper describes two electrical/chemical propulsion … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 4 Nov 2017 · 8,019 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of a Hybrid Power Module for Mobile Wireless Sensor Networks: Towards a Livestock Tracking and Identification SystemMolaletsa Namoshe, Oduetse Matsebe, Obakeng MaphaneSmart technology and Internet of Things (IoT) applications have gained popularity in the development of agricultural systems with Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) increasingly becoming the building blocks for IoT applications. However, WSNs have a limited power supply. As a result, these systems have a short lifespan, limited memory and low computing power. This paper describes the development of a hybrid … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 23 Oct 2017 · 7,772 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Approach to Model Concentrating PV Cells Under Non-Uniform IlluminationHang Zhou, Yuehong Su, Gang Pei et al.Concentrating PV (CPV) cells are often designed optimally depending on solar concentrator characteristics and operating conditions to ensure the best system performance. Before reaching a PV cell, solar radiation may experience some optical losses caused by the different physical phenomena occurring in a solar concentrator. A particular issue with the CPV technology is the non-uniformity of the concentrated radiation, which … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 30 Aug 2017 · 7,144 accessesView PDFCite
