1. Rapid Aerodynamic Method for Interacting Sails
Sammanfattning : Rapid performance prediction tools are required for the evaluation, optimization, and comparison of different wind propulsion systems (WPSs). These tools should capture viscous aerodynamic flow effects in 3D, especially the maximum propulsion force, stall angles and interaction effects between the lift-generating units. LÄS MER
2. Marine propeller optimisation tools for scenario-based design
Sammanfattning : The marine propulsion system is one of the most important components of a ship in order to cover the demanding operating needs of propulsion nowadays and to increase performance in a wide range of operating conditions. Marine propellers are designed with the purpose of matching the hull and machinery system, create the required thrust for the entire operational profile, and fulfil the techno-economical requirements that depend on the decision-making of several stakeholders.

3. Aerodynamic Aspects of Propulsion Integration for Next-generation Commercial Aircraft
Sammanfattning : Propulsion integration is one of the most challenging aspects of aircraft design. It requires a multidisciplinary approach involving aerodynamics, propulsion, structures, weight, noise, and control systems. LÄS MER
4. Methods for the Evaluation of Wingsails with a Crescent-Shaped Profile
Sammanfattning : Seaborne transportation accounts for a large proportion of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has stipulated that GHG emissions should be reduced by 50% before 2050 compared to 2018. The use of wind-assisted ship propulsion (WASP) is considered one of the most effective ways to reduce GHG emissions. LÄS MER
5. Flywheel in an all-electric propulsion system
Sammanfattning : Energy storage is a crucial condition for both transportation purposes and for the use of electricity. Flywheels can be used as actual energy storage but also as power handling device. Their high power capacity compared to other means of storing electric energy makes them very convenient for smoothing power transients. LÄS MER
