Over last ten years Mobile & Marine Robotics Research Centre (MMRRC), University of Limerick, Ireland have developed OceanRINGS — a suite of smart technologies for subsea operations, designed to be integrated with any ROV — ship combination. It includes advanced control solutions for full range of ROVS — from mini ROVs used for remote monitoring & inspection to full-size work-class ROVs. Remotely...
The OceanRINGS is a suite of smart technologies for subsea operations developed over the last ten years at the Mobile & Marine Robotics Research Centre (MMRRC), University of Limerick, Ireland. Applied to mini ROVs, OceanRINGS technologies enable remote presence: long endurance robotic systems for routine inspection of offshore subsea oil & gas installations and marine renewable energy devices...
This paper presents an alternative design of wind turbine. Wind turbine design includes subsystem elements necessary to satisfy rigorous grid codes imposed by transmission system operators (TSOs). While the addition of these components assures compliance they have an impact on the overall reliability. A new approach which can be taken by the industry is to rethink the design of the turbines, in this...
Stringent grid codes imposed by transmission system operators (TSOs) have led wind turbine manufacturers to overdesign their products. As an individual power generator, each single wind turbine has to meet those regulations. However, in a “farm” like configuration, a different approach can be taken. This paper describes how renewable energy generator units can be simplified in order to bring manufacturing...
Because electricity is considered an indispensable resource in every home and workplace it is vital that the 'human factor' is a main concern during the development of any DSM algorithms. Appliances must be categorized as either time dependent or independent. Time dependent appliances would include TV's and cookers where the devices must operate at a user specified time. Water and space heating/cooling...
Real-time models of ocean dynamics are very useful for the design, development, testing and validation of marine technology in simulation. Many models of waves and currents are proposed in the literature, ranging from very simple to very complex models. In order to accommodate these models for realtime simulation of ocean dynamics, balance needs to be achieved between complexity of the model and constraints...
