  3. 12. Production Process for Tunnel Modeling : An Analysis of Composites for Water Applications

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

    Author : Melody Ghaderidosst; Vilma Hurtigh Grabe; Rebecka Norman; Adam Rosvall; Evelina Wiksten; [2021]
    Keywords : Tunnel Modeling; Water Applications; Composites; Natural Fibers; Polymers;

    Abstract : Hydroelectric power is a leading source of renewable energy where large turbines convert the kinetic energy of water into electricity. In order to not exceed the capacity limit of the turbine, excess water in the dams needs to be diverted away through spillways. READ MORE
