Pipelines laid over long distances in the onshore environment may be affected by excessive straining, corrosion, collapse of soil and other third-party damages. Small chronic leaks cause severe safety environmental effects if left undetected for a time. Any potential leaked water source not detected time could lose considerable volume under ground. Thus, this study aims to determine leakage pip...

Abstract Hydropower plants (HPPs) are acknowledged to be fundamental assets provide generation flexibility power systems hosting substantial amount of stochastic renewable energy sources. Within this context, providing enforces HPP units cross-over transient operating conditions or operate in off-design conditions. The evaluation the impact that such transients have on hydraulic machines is a s...

Understanding the microscopic dispersion and aggregation of nanoparticles at nanoscale media has become an important challenge during the last decades. Nanoscale modeling techniques are the important tools to tackle many of the complex problems faced by engineers and scientists. Making progress in the investigations at nanoscale whether experimentally or computationally has helped understand th...
