Hydraulic

This volume focuses on some of the key aspects of hydraulic fracturing operations, which are fundamental to the extraction of geothermal energy as well as the production of unconventional hydrocarbon reservoirs. With regard to geothermal energy production, this book presents an economic-based modeling of geothermal systems augmented by hydraulic fracturing, which invariably results in the creation of optimal designs of enhanced geothermal systems (EGS) that boost economic performance.

This book reports on cutting-edge research and technical achievements in the field of hydraulic drives. The chapters, selected from contributions presented at the International Scientific-Technical Conference on Hydraulic and Pneumatic Drives and Controls, NSHP 2020, held on October 21-23, 2020, in Trzebieszowice, Poland, cover a wide range of topics such as theoretical advances in fluid technology, work machines in mining, construction, marine and manufacturing industry, and practical issues relating to the application and operation of hydraulic drives.

This volume conveys a broad understanding of the fundamental mechanisms of various hydraulic structures. Emphasis is given to the analysis and design of different types of hydraulic structures. Various applications of hydraulic structure analysis are also incorporated. This book introduces advanced ideas on hydraulic structures: theory and applications to the international community.
