Observations of Snow and Ice Formation on Solar Photovoltaic Panels and an Enhanced Method of Modelling Snow Melting from Solar Photovoltaic Panels
DownloadSpring 2019
One of the fundamental limitations of solar photovoltaic (PV) generating systems in cold regions is snow accumulations blocking irradiance from reaching the PV cells. Snow accumulations on PV panels result in both reduced electricity generation and increased uncertainty in electricity generation...

Simplified seismic design methods for low-ductile steel multi-tiered concentrically braced frames
DownloadFall 2020
Multi-Tiered Concentrically Braced Frames (MT-CBFs) represent a bracing configuration where two or more concentric braced panels are stacked between the storey levels in multi-storey buildings or between the ground and roof levels in single-storey buildings such as sports facilities, airplane...
