The role of simulation in designing for universal access. (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Keates, S., & Looms, P. O. (2014, June). The role of simulation in designing for universal access. Presented at 8th International Conference, UAHCI 2014, Heraklion, Crete, Greece

It is known that the adoption of user-centred design processes can lead to more universally accessible products and services. However, the most frequently cited approach to user-centred design, i.e. participatory design, can be both problematic and e...

Estimation of the power electronic converter lifetime in fully rated converter wind turbine for onshore and offshore wind farms (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Givaki, K., Jamieson, P., & Parker, M. (2014, April). Estimation of the power electronic converter lifetime in fully rated converter wind turbine for onshore and offshore wind farms. Presented at 7th IET International Conference on Power Electronics, Machines and Drives (PEMD 2014)

A comparison has been made of the converter lifetime for a 3MW fully rated converter horizontal axis wind turbine located onshore and offshore. Simulated torque and speed of the turbine shaft were used to calculate voltage and current time series, th...
