Effective Pipeline Integrity Decision Making

Pipeline operators are required to make decisions for various complex pipeline integrity situations on a daily basis. These integrity situations often comprise a complex interaction between integrity threats such as corrosion, cracking, third party damage, dents, buckles, and wrinkles. A pipeline operator usually develops their own processes towards dealing with each specific integrity threat. In […]

Battery Management System for Lithium-Ion Batteries in Electric Vehicles

Measurement of the SOC is one of the basic functions of BMS for lithium-ion batteries pack in EVs. It is equivalent to fuel gauge in conventional vehicles which will indicate the miles cars can still run and when they should be charged. So the accurate SOC is needed to estimate to prolong the lifetime and […]

Modélisation hydraulique et des sédiments pour la conception des bassins de sédimentation des sites de récolte de tourbe

Dans les sites de récolte de tourbe, un réseau de canaux de drainage est souvent nécessaire afin de permettre aux équipements d’accéder au site et d’assécher la tourbe à récolter. Des bassins de sédimentation sont fréquemment installés à la sortie de ces réseaux de drainage pour empêcher la tourbe et les minéraux en suspension d’atteindre […]
