Versatile wooden windows In her book, the trained carpenter and architect Judith Resch looks at what scope still exists in modern window design and construction. The process of simplification is more difficult to achieve for windows than for most building components, since windows, due to their function, must meet high technical specifications. She presents a variety of window design projects that have one thing in common: they pursue a singular design concept using the simplest possible means. All projects are presented in detail with technical drawings and photographs. 10 simple wooden window designs From retrofitting historical windows to the possibilities of DIY design Precisely designed, handcrafted, highly repairable windows

In dieser Arbeit wird ein praxistaugliches Konzept für einen aktiven Verteilnetzbetrieb vorgestellt sowie dessen Implementierung in einem realen deutschen Niederspannungsnetz beschrieben. Gegenstand der Untersuchungen ist dabei die komplette Prozesskette eines automatisierten Niederspannungsnetzbetriebs, angefangen bei der Kommunikationsanbindung, über die Bestimmung des aktuellen Netzzustands in Echtzeit, als Basis für einen sicheren Betrieb, bis hin zur letztlichen Flexibilitätsnutzung. Durch eine abschließende Demonstration der entwickelten Konzepte und Methoden im Rahmen von Feldversuchen während des regulären Niederspannungsnetzbetriebs, werden diese unter Realbedingungen validiert. Es kann gezeigt werden, dass eine großflächige Umsetzung des beschriebenen Konzepts praktikabel ist, wodurch perspektivisch eine Spannungsebenen übergreifende Bereitstellung von Flexibilität aus den Verteilnetzen ermöglicht werden kann, wenngleich der Investitionsbedarf dem gegenübersteht.

This book, drawing on fresh scholarship, investigates electrification in new places and across different time periods. While much of our understanding of electrification as a historical process is based on the seminal work done by Thomas P. Hughes in Networks of Power (1983), the scholars in this volume expand and revise Hughes¿ systems approach to suggest that electrification is a heterogeneous and contingent process. Moreover, the contributors suggest that the conquest of the world by electricity remains incomplete despite more than a century elapsing. Above all, though, this book provides context for thinking about what lies ahead as humans continue their conquest of the earth through electricity. As we become increasingly dependent on electricity to power our lights, heat and cool our homes, turn the wheels of industry, and keep our information systems humming, so we are ever more vulnerable when the grid runs into trouble.Chapter "Surveying the Landscape: The Oil Industry and Alternative Energy in the 1970s" is available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.

This Green Book provides the design engineer with an understanding of the electrical parameters and methods required in designing compact AC and DC lines. Compact AC and DC lines are becoming increasingly necessary due to the limitation of right of way access and the need to upgrade power transfer in existing, narrower line corridors. Another requirement for compact AC lines is the lower impedance permitting increased power flow.For DC power lines, increased power flow can only be realised by increasing the current through the conductors and/or increasing line voltage. In AC it can also be achieved by bundle expansion and phase compaction due to the variation of impedance. The effect of compaction on AC and DC lines is not identical as with the constraints. The Green Book covers the theory relating to the constraints such as corona, audible noise, insulation coordination, electric and magnetic fields and others for both AC and DC lines.In addition to the theory, the Green Book includes actual calculations of electric parameters for different pole (DC) and phase (AC) configurations. Standards applied by various countries are tabulated for easy comparison of practices internationally. Case studies on line compaction designs for both AC and DC are described with relation to pole compaction, pole rearrangement and phase configuration. Voltage upgrading is also treated in this book, and some case studies for both AC and DC are considered.
