RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT OF NEW SINGLE LAYER ARMOUR UNIT

A New Symmetrical Unit for Breakwater Armour: First Tests

A new and symmetrical single layer armour unit, the crablock, has been designed in the UAE. One breakwater was reconstructed with crablock, but very limited testing had been performed. Just to become more acquainted with this new unit, precompetitive research at a university has been performed, which is the subject of this paper. Being a new armour unit, the placement was investigated first. Th...

The influence of the under layer on the stability of single layer armour units

Experimental research on the stability of the armour and secondary layer in a single layered tetrapod breakwater

Preface This thesis was submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Science (MSc) in Civil Engineering. The preparation and evaluation of the experiments were performed at Royal Boskalis Westminster nv. The experiments have been carried out at the Fluid Mechan-I want to thank him for guiding me through the total process of this research. During this graduation work...

solution of security constrained unit commitment problem by a new multi-objective optimization method

چکیده-پخش بار بهینه به عنوان یکی از ابزار زیر بنایی برای تحلیل سیستم های قدرت پیچیده ،برای مدت طولانی مورد بررسی قرار گرفته است.پخش بار بهینه توابع هدف یک سیستم قدرت از جمله تابع هزینه سوخت ،آلودگی ،تلفات را بهینه می کند،و هم زمان قیود سیستم قدرت را نیز برآورده می کند.در کلی ترین حالتopf یک مساله بهینه سازی غیر خطی ،غیر محدب،مقیاس بزرگ،و ایستا می باشد که می تواند شامل متغیرهای کنترلی پیوسته و گ...

A new method for acquisition and analysis of single unit recording data

Single unit recording has been used as a well-known technique to study the electrical behavior of neurons. In this respect, the classical methods are rather expensive. In this study a simple and inexpensive method for single unit recording studies has been introduced. Computer sound card was used for data acquisition. Neural responses were saved via simple sound applicable packages and then ana...
