Abstract

Facing the energy crisis and the necessity to reduce CO2 and greenhouse gas emissions,
hydrogen has emerged as a key option in the decarbonization of fields such as aerospace and
automotive. Indeed, hydrogen constitutes a solution in the storage and transportation of
energy. Typically, hydrogen is stored in Composite Overwrapped Pressure Vessels (COPVs)
which have a better strength-to-weight ratio than traditional metallic pressure vessels. However, COPVs are still subject to improvement in the filament winding process which is greatly
responsible for the damage resistance and the fatigue behavior.
This Master thesis addresses the implementation of a model predicting the evolution of the
winding angle on the dome of cylindrical pressure vessels. The winding angle is an important
parameter in the determination of the mechanical behavior of composite pressure vessels. In
order to enlarge the possibility of winding trajectories, non-geodesic winding is implemented in
MATLAB. The solution of the non-geodesic equation is computed using the 4th-order Runge
Kutta method with a constant discretization over the dome profile. Then, the approach is
extended to a multi-layer structure predicting the winding angle on an arbitrary pseudo-ply
different from an ellipse.
Finally, a methodology to mesh a lay-up is implemented by defining the nodes, the elements,
and the winding angle associated with each element. The finite element model is then exported
in SAMCEF BACON for later simulations. This results in a more realistic dome modelling by
considering the different plies and the non-geodesic trajectories in the filament winding process.

Abstract

This book describes recent advances in geomechanics for energy and the sustainable environment. Four research articles, related to high-level radioactive nuclear waste disposal stability, geological effect and wellbore stability considerations for methane gas hydrate production, and artificial soil freezing, are presented in this book. In addition, a comprehensive state-of-the-art review verifies the strong correlation between global climate change and the occurrence of geotechnical engineering hazards. The review also summarizes recent attempts to reduce CO2 emissions from civil and geotechnical engineering practices. Readers will gain ideas as to how we can deal with conventional and renewable energy sources and environment-related geotechnical engineering issues.

Abstract

In this Special Issue on symmetry, we mainly discuss the application of symmetry in various structural health monitoring. For example, considering the health monitoring of a known structure, by obtaining the static or dynamic response of the structure, using different signal processing methods, including some advanced filtering methods, to remove the influence of environmental noise, and extract structural feature parameters to determine the safety of the structure. These damage diagnosis methods can also be effectively applied to various types of infrastructure and mechanical equipment. For this reason, the vibration control of various structures and the knowledge of random structure dynamics should be considered, which will promote the rapid development of the structural health monitoring. Among them, signal extraction and evaluation methods are also worthy of study. The improvement of signal acquisition instruments and acquisition methods improves the accuracy of data. A good evaluation method will help to correctly understand the performance with different types of infrastructure and mechanical equipment.

Abstract

The need for energy is increasing and but the production from conventional reservoirs is declining quickly. This requires an economically and technically feasible source of energy for the coming years. Among some alternative future energy solutions, the most reasonable source is from unconventional reservoirs. As the name “unconventional” implies, different and challenging approaches are required to characterize and develop these resources. This Special Issue covers some of the technical challenges for developing unconventional energy sources from shale gas/oil, tight gas sand, and coalbed methane.

Abstract

Geothermal energy is the thermal energy generated and stored in the Earth's core, mantle, and crust. Geothermal technologies are used to generate electricity and to heat and cool buildings. To develop accurate models for heat and mass transfer applications involving fluid flow in geothermal applications or reservoir engineering and petroleum industries, a basic knowledge of the rheological and transport properties of the materials involved (drilling fluid, rock properties, etc.)—especially in high-temperature and high-pressure environments—are needed. This Special Issue considers all aspects of fluid flow and heat transfer in geothermal applications, including the ground heat exchanger, conduction and convection in porous media. The emphasis here is on mathematical and computational aspects of fluid flow in conventional and unconventional reservoirs, geothermal engineering, fluid flow, and heat transfer in drilling engineering and enhanced oil recovery (hydraulic fracturing, CO2 injection, etc.) applications.
