Pec Water Splitting

Hydrogen as a CO2-free fuel has been considered as a serious alternative for problematic fossil fuels in recent decades Photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting is a developing solar-based technology for hydrogen production. In this study, some possible options for upgrading this technology from R&D stage to prototype stage through a material selection approach is investigated. For these purpose, TOPSIS algorithm through a multi criteria decision making (MCDM) approach was utilized for evaluating different (PEC)-based hydrogen production materials. TiO2, WO3 and BiVO4 as three semiconductors known for their PEC application, were selected as alternatives in this decision-making study. After defining a set of criteria, which were assessed based on similar studies and experts' visions, a group of ten PEC-experts including university professors and PhD students were asked to fill the questionnaires. The eight criteria considered in this study are include "Study Cost", "Synthesis Simplicity", "Facility & Availability", "Deposition capability on TCO", "Modifiability", "Commercialization in H2 production", "Physical and Chemical Durability" and "Eco-friendly Fabrication". The final TOPSIS results indicates that TiO2 is selected as the best semiconductor for further investments in order to upgrade the PEC-based hydrogen production technology from R&D level to prototype stage. ©2019.

Multi Attribute Decision Making

The aim of this paper is to develop a new method for the material selection problem, which is important for the product design. Material selection problem is actually a multi-attribute decision making (MADM) problem which contains many influence factors. The new material selection method is an extension of projection method with evaluation attribution values expressed with triangular fuzzy numbers. Coefficient of variation method is used to determine weights of evaluation attribute. A grinding wheel abrasive material selection problem is used to illustrate the effectiveness and practicability of the proposed method.

Copras Method

The aim of this paper is to put forward a new material selection method based on COPRAS method. The method combines the COPRAS method and coefficient of variation method. The new method is simple and easy to use, and coefficient of variation method can objectively determine the attributes weights. Thus it can be easily accepted by decision makers. Finally, a practical example is used to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.

Selection Of

The selection of the most desirable material contains many evaluation attributes, and thus leads to hard be solved. The material selection is actually a multiple attributes decision making problem, which has been studied by many authors. The aim of this study is to propose a new material selection method, which is an improved double base points method through defining the entropy weight and used the relative approach degree to measure the distance measures. The method may avoid the influence of subjective factors through the entropy weight, is very suitable for material selection problem. The applied example proves that the method is both effective and exercisable.

Coal mine horizontal belt extension transfer machine is designed in order to solve the mine loading efficiency is not high, especially the most loading mechanical failed to solve continuous loading problem. Among them, the tractor as power to provide the transfer machine, its importance cans be imagined. Through the statics analysis of the tractor frame, we draw the conclusion: Preliminary plan is too conservative given frame size, frame heavier, cause material waste, processing difficult. We will through two aspects of size parameters optimization and material optimization design, make the tractor frame on the premise of guarantee function materials more provinces, lighter weight, lower cost. Size options and set up new material selection, and then we stand for the statics analysis. Analysis results show that our lightweight design of tractor frame is a success.
