Assessing The Economic Benefits Of Compressed Air Energy Storage For Mitigating Wind Curtailment, 2015 Dublin Institute of Technology
Assessing The Economic Benefits Of Compressed Air Energy Storage For Mitigating Wind Curtailment, Brendan Cleary, Aidan Duffy, Alan O'Connor, Michael Conlon, Vasilis Fthenakis
Other resources
Renewable energy generation in the All-Island of Ireland (AII) is set to increase by 2020 due to binding renewable energy targets. To achieve these targets, there will be periods of time when 75% of electricity will be generated mainly from onshore wind. Currently, the AII system can accommodate a 50% maximum permissible instantaneous level of wind generation. The system operators must make system wide wind curtailment decisions to ensure this level is not breached. Subsequently, the ability to limit wind curtailment using large scale energy storage such as pumped hydroelectric energy storage and compressed air energy storage (CAES) is increasingly ...

Evaluation Of Vibration Profiles For Uld Dollies At Air-Cargo Sorting Hubs, Jay Singh, Paul Singh, Koushik Saha
Journal of Applied Packaging Research
This study measured and analyzed the vibration characteristics of an important component of the air package shipping environment which has not been previously studied or included in the pre-shipment testing of packages. This is the movement of packages between aircraft after they are flown in to an airport-hub and being taken into a facility to conduct a sort, or after being sorted as they are transferred back on to aircraft. These transfers at airport-hubs between trucks, building sortation facilities and aircraft are done using material handling equipment called "dollies" or carts. These carts often are connected with each other into ...

Determination Of Area Of Fire Origin Through Examination Of Structural Failure And Deformation, 2014 University of Tennessee - Knoxville
Determination Of Area Of Fire Origin Through Examination Of Structural Failure And Deformation, Andrew Thomas Tinsley
Doctoral Dissertations
The effects of fire on steel have long been noted and studied. However, a scientific connection between the area of origin for a fire and the amount of steel deformation observed at the scene has never been established. The development and implementation of this type of analysis has the potential to decrease investigation times significantly as the types of structures to which this method would be applicable are typically large, expansive structures. In order to investigate the relationship between structural steel deformations and a fire's origin, a series of six tests were performed in a smaller size portal frame ...

Optimised Integration Of Grid-Connected Renewable Energy Technologies For Domestic Application In Ireland, 2014 Dublin Institute of Technology
Optimised Integration Of Grid-Connected Renewable Energy Technologies For Domestic Application In Ireland, Zhe Li [Thesis]
The utilisation of renewable energy resources for electricity and thermal generation is extremely important in Ireland due to the lack of indigenous fossil fuel resources and the high dependence on imported fossil fuels. The release of environmentally-damaging greenhouse gases in the combustion of fossil fuels in electricity and thermal generation is also a major issue. In Ireland, the domestic dwelling is recognised as one of the biggest energy consumers. The use of renewable energy technologies to provide electricity, heating and hotwater can effectively offset the usage of fossil fuels. The aim of this research study was to develop a novel ...

Shock Pulse Filtering Evaluation On Package Size And Cost, 2014 Hewlett-Packard Company
Shock Pulse Filtering Evaluation On Package Size And Cost, Matthew P. Daum Ph.D.
Journal of Applied Packaging Research
Distribution packaging design often relies on cushion curves to determine required material thickness needed for product protection during shipment. The material thickness chosen based on cushion curves establishes overall package size, a key determiner of logistics costs. Cushion curves are constructed by dropping a mass onto a cushion, and interpreting the resulting shock pulse deceleration. The reported deceleration can be highly influenced by applying a "filter" to the shock pulse, a useful standar d prac - tice that removes unwanted high frequency elements superimposed on top of the basic shock pulse shape. Standard test methods for generating cushion curves generally do ...

This project involves the development of a compact and portable pneumatic demonstrator. Using two pneumatic actuators and four solenoid valves, we are able to move an arm on both the X and Y-axes; one actuator for each range of motion. The setup also employs an air pump and a tank to maintain pressure for the actuators. On the actuators there is an arm that holds a camera, a stepper motor and an electromagnet. The stepper motor raises and lowers the electromagnet which is used to pick up objects. The camera is used to automatically identify objects for when the demonstrator ...
Quantitative Data Extraction Using Spatial Fourier Transform In Inversion Shear Interferometer, 2014 Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology
Quantitative Data Extraction Using Spatial Fourier Transform In Inversion Shear Interferometer, Yangzen Li
Graduate Theses - Physics and Optical Engineering
Currently there are many interferometers used for testing wavefront, measuring the quality of optical elements, and detecting refractive index changes in a certain medium. Each interferometer has been constructed for a specific objective. Inversion shear interferometer is one of them. Compared to other interferometers, it has its own advantages, such as only being sensitive to coma aberration, but it has some limitations as well. It does not allow use of phase shifting technique. A novel inversion shear interferometer was invented using holographic lenses. By using the spatial carrier method, phase information of the wavefront was extracted. The breakthrough of the ...

text: Former American football player Keyshawn Johnson is moving out of his home in Calabasas, California, just weeks after becoming embroiled in a spat with neighbour Justin Bieber. The sportsman-turned-TV pundit hit headlines in June (13) when he confronted the teenage pop star over allegations he was putting fellow residents at risk by speeding around the exclusive gated community in his sports car. A representative for Johnson has now revealed to TMZ.com that the star is moving house, but insists: "Keyshawn is not moving to get away from Bieber. He's moving to be closer to the high school where he'll be coaching and where his son will be playing football."

place branding
Posted by Mark J. Miller on April 16, 2012 11:01 AM
The state of New Hampshire loves its tourists. After all, tourism is where a good chunk of the state's cash comes from. In 2011, those nickels and dimes added up to more than $4.2 billion. Looks like nobody can exactly do the first part of the state's historic motto, "Live Free or Die."
(And what's the point of encouraging potential tourists to do the second part?)
Because of that, the state is looking to draw in more tourists and launched an advertising campaign Thursday that hopes to help potential visitors think of New Hampshire in new ways, according to the Associated Press. Part of the new tourism push includes a play on that old motto.Continue reading...

And The Fastest Land Animal In The World Is...
by Chris Malone
posted Apr 30 2014 6:18AM
If you though the fastest land animal in the world is a Cheetah, you're wrong! A new study reveals that the
world's fastest animal relative to its body size is a small Southern California mite
. The little creature can travel 322 body lengths in a second, which researchers say would equate to 1,300 miles per hour for a human. They say by comparison, a cheetah tops out at about 16 body lengths per second, or roughly 70 miles per hour. To find this, researchers used a high-speed camera to study how quickly different animals moved. The mite beat out the Australian tiger beetle, which previously held the record for the fastest relative speed.

Comments about Wacoal Fantasie: Montreal Twist Front One-Piece Swimsuit:
After ordering and returning several other swimsuits from different sites I happened across this. Price tag is a little high but finally a swimsuit that fits and is flattering! I did follow the directions and ordered a cup size up. Swimsuit is slimming and provides coverage without looking like an old lady suit. My only complaint is that I wish the torso was a little longer. At 5'9 it does seem to pull down a little. But since the cup size fits so well I can handle that!

The break music is oddly hypnotic. Love the part where the 2nd harmony comes in.
A little "break music" anecdote:
I sent an email to the guys wondering how long their breaks actually are, because they obviously last longer than the :30 break music. Here was the response:
I think at most, we've had break music that covered a full day.
I love your idea. We'll look into it.
As far as the "idea", I thought that they should get some "Brad's Gotta Leave" theme music. ;)
@Jeff: I really wish they would have taken some extra time and developed a totally new control scheme for Geometry Wars. It seems like with the multi-touch interface they could have come up with something better than an on-screen control pad.
I will say though, other than the video/forum posting issues, browsing GB on an iPad is awesome.
I assume using Google Analytics or some similar service they can see exactly how much web traffic is coming from iPhones/iPads and make the decision that way. Upgrading their iPhone app to work on iPad, maybe adding some forum tools to it and whatnot, would be just fine with me. I just wish they would discuss it on the Bombcast or something... maybe a strongly worded email is in order. ;)
Yeah, that's another issue at current... but it seems like that would be an easier fix than converting the videos.
Now that Jeff owns an iPad, and can PLAINLY SEE that:
1. the Giant Bomb iPhone app looks janky when blown up to 2x size
2. none of the videos on Giantbomb.com work in mobile safari (which they know about, being iPhone owners... hence the app)
...how long until the app gets the proper iPad treatment?
Also, as I have no knowledge of the subject, how tough would it be for the Whiskey Media guys to convert all the videos on their various sites to HTML5? Obviously that is the Steve Jobs vision for the future of the web... but I have no idea how much work has to go into a complete switch away from Flash. Browsing the rest of the site features is awesome on the iPad though... sitting on the couch scouring the site for quests is lots of fun. :)

Juli Wade: Hooked on research
I started down my career path because I wasn't so happy with my job in the kitchen of a restaurant at Cornell University, where I was pursuing a bachelor's degree. The people I worked with were terrific, but it was hot, messy and exhausting. The best part was drinking the remnants of chocolate shakes when we "accidentally" made more than the glass could hold.View story photos

Wolf and Bear Go Fishing
By: David Mizejewski
On the Alaska Peninsula, salmon constitute a significant portion of a wolf's summer diet. This video, taken at Brooks...Posted by Katmai National Park & Preserve on Tuesday, March 17, 2015
This video posted to Katmai National Park and Reserve's Facebook page is pretty amazing. Most people are aware that grizzly bears in Alaska gather every year to take advantage of the salmon spawning runs. Most don't know that bears aren't the only mammalian carnivores to get in on the action.
The wolf in the video is quite the expert at catching salmon. Just goes to show you how adaptable wildlife needs to be to survive.

Eberjey's petal-soft lace bralets often skew towards the effortless-girly spectrum (and we love that about them). But looking at the Fiona Bralet, with its lovely lace edging, sexy peek-a-boo, sheer stretch, and cocktail party bow that this little softbra is more like effortless-girly-meets-inner-vixen. And we like that.
Wear With
Fiona Lace Thong$35.00
Eberjey's petal-soft lace bottoms often skew towards the effortless-girly spectrum (and we love that). But looking at this cheeky hot-pant, we might have to think again.
Fiona Chemise$76.00
We forgot what it's like when Eberbey does bombshell. It's the exact right mix of cheeky and soft, of sexy and effortless, jaw-dropping and sweet-dreaming. In short, perfect.
Fit Notes
- Good for petites
- Bra Sizing - General
- Light Support
May We Recommend?
Oh, hey there Golden Girl. This body kissing chemise, with its gilt-kissed metallic and ivoire lace construction feels as lovely against the skin as it looks. Stay Golden.
66.00 - 69.00
Though this has recently been our favorite day-off go-to wardrobe essential, and though it is perfect on the couch, it also is pretty fab with our high waisted skinnies too.
66.00 - 69.00
These lusciously supple and delectably boyfriend-slouchy heather pants from Eberjey are perfect for those days when you need a little less structure but still must be fabulous.

Blake's 7 given the go ahead by Syfy

Blake's 7 given the go ahead by Syfy
New details have emerged of the forthcoming
Blake's 7
US cable network Syfy has
developed the remake of the classic cult drama
with FremantleMedia International.
Thirteen hour-long episodes - written by Joe Pokaski (
) and directed by
Martin Campbell
Casino Royale
) - will be produced by Georgeville TV.
The new
Blake's 7
- set in 2136 - is described as a "revolutionary reinvention" of the BBC's 1978-1981 sci-fi drama, following seven criminals - 6 guilty and 1 innocent.
Led by hero of the rebellion Blake - who is mourning the loss of his dead wife Rachel - the crew acquire an alien ship which gives them a second chance at life.
Blake's 7
was such a forward-thinking concept that the show continues to have resonance with audiences today," said David Ellender, CEO FremantleMedia International.
"Its complex characters and gritty storylines, coupled with the highly talented team and modern production techniques are sure to appeal to both original fans of the show and new viewers."
So finally a new space series and it's a remake of a well loved British show. I don't see this going well but I hope it is a good show.
Wisdom comes from experience. Experience is often a result of lack of wisdom.

+ - Black Hole Cluster Emits Massive Cloud
'A giant cloud of superheated gas 6 million light years wide might be formed by the collective sigh of several supermassive black holes, scientists say. The plasma cloud, detailed in April 10 issue of Astrophysical Journal, might be the source of mysterious cosmic rays that permeate our universe.
The plasma cloud is located about 300 million light years away near the Coma Cluster and is spread across a vast region of space thought to contain several galaxies with supermassive black holes, or active galactic nuclei (AGN), embedded at their centers.'"
Safari browser exploit produced within 9 hours in hacking competition->
Filed under: Desktops, LaptopsShane Macaulay and Dino Dai Zovi, a software engineer and security researcher taking part in the brilliantly named "PWN to Own" Hack-a-Mac contest at the CanSecWest conference in Vancouver, managed to hack into and take control of a MacBook by finding a security exploit that takes advantage of an open Safari browser window. Shane and his teammate Dino won the prize of a brand new MacBook -- presumably loaded with Firefox or some other browser variant -- for managing to find the hole on the second and final day of the contest. The hack wasn't exactly a breeze, since the pair admitted to a total of 9 hours in order to find and exploit the weakness. Apple has patched OS X four times over the last year to fix dozens of security updates, and only regurgitated the corporate line when asked for comment on this particular vulnerability. ("Apple takes security very seriously", well duh!) Even with the recent arousal of interest in Mac OS security, the world has yet to see any kind of exploit released into the wild world web; when / if one does, we'd probably expect the most damaging exploit to use good ol' social engineering rather than a complicated hack like this. Still, Mac users should take some form of satisfaction from knowing that the issue of Mac security is being investigated, rather than being taken for granted.

+ - Open IWB software?
Brand "S": will run multi-platform (inc Linux) but only on proprietary boards
Brand "P": software can be licensed for other boards but is not multi-platform
"P" would seem like a winner — at least until we take the department down a Linux thin-client route...
This is obviously a problem that many of you face in your fields as well when evaluating software. Question is, does anyone know of an open environment for classroom IWB use — or even a "closed" one that supports the main file formats?"

+ - The RIAA's worst nightmare or just some wannabes?
But they're not acting on principle; band member Joe Murphy says "If someone comes along and gives us an offer, we'll talk to them." before continuing on to add the words the recording industry has been having nightmares about since the introduction of the mp3 format: "If we can get enough exposure and get in the top 40 by the end of the week, do we necessarily need a large label? Probably nowadays, no you don't." Is this finally the crack in the dam we've all been waiting for to wash away the entrenched monopolies of 20th century music production? Or just a sell-out waiting to happen?"
+ - The Pirate Bay blocks Swedish ISP
+ - Israeli Army Says D&Ders Are Delusional
From the article:
'"These people have a tendency to be influenced by external factors which could cloud their judgment," a military official says. "They may be detached from reality or have a weak personality — elements which lower a person's security clearance, allowing them to serve in the army, but not in sensitive positions."'
Also, 'exposing soldiers who play the game could result in the soldiers being sent to a military psychologist or even being kicked out of the army.'
So, if you're an Israeli, and want to avoid military service, I've got a PBEM game you can join."
