Susceptibility Of Riverine Fishes To Anthropogenically-Linked Trauma: Strikes From Hydropower Turbine Blades, Ryan K. Saylor
Susceptibility Of Riverine Fishes To Anthropogenically-Linked Trauma: Strikes From Hydropower Turbine Blades, Ryan K. Saylor
Doctoral Dissertations
Hydropower accounts for nearly 40% of renewable electricity generation in the US; however, dams significantly impact the surrounding aquatic ecosystems. One of the most visible impacts of hydropower―beyond the dam itself―is the direct negative impacts (injury or death) to fish populations that must pass through hydropower turbines to access desired downstream habitat. During passage, fishes face many potential stressors that can cause severe injuries and often leads to high rates of mortality. In this dissertation, I have focused on quantifying how fishes respond to impacts from turbine blades that may occur during turbine passage. Laboratory research into blade strike impact …
Numerical And Experimental Investigation Of Performance For Very-Low-Head Micro And Pico Kaplan Hydro-Turbines With Rim-Driven Generators, Ahmad Ibrahim Mohammad Abbas
Numerical And Experimental Investigation Of Performance For Very-Low-Head Micro And Pico Kaplan Hydro-Turbines With Rim-Driven Generators, Ahmad Ibrahim Mohammad Abbas
Theses and Dissertations
Renewable energy plays a significant role in new power generation worldwide, and hydropower is contributing to 86% of renewable electricity production within all other renewable energy resources. Simultaneously, hydropower shares 83% of U.S. renewable energy capacity and accounts for 77% of actual renewable electricity generation. However, most of the installed hydropower consists of large plants. Much potential hydro generation remains untapped, particularly at lower power and head levels. There is a substantial opportunity worldwide and across the U.S. in specific to add new hydropower generating capabilities at low-head sites such as non-powered dams, canals, and conduits with a water height …

UBT International Conference
As time passes by, we barely see how much time it costs people to stay at work, fixing problems that happen every day. As people we should do more about humanity and technology is the door that opens opportunities for us to do this. Technology today is transforming every human daily life routine and it’s only the beginning of what technology can bring. By 2020 we know that technology will connect the unconnected by introducing the real idea of Internet of Things. Every little, tiny thing all over the world will be connected, but also big and important projects like …
