    • Energy price changes and the induced revaluation of durable capital in U.S. manufacturing during the OPEC decade 

      Berndt, Ernst R.; Wood, David O. ([Cambridge, Mass.] : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Center for Energy Policy Research, 1984, 1984)
      When energy prices increased suddenly and unexpectedly in 1973-74 and 1979-80, a portion of the long-lived capital stock in U.S. manufacturing was rendered economically less valuable. In this paper we develop an analytical ...

    • Physical and numerical modeling of the external fluid mechanics of OTEC pilot plants 

      Singarella, Paul N.; Adams, E. Eric (Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Energy Laboratory, 1982, 1982)
      This study examined the near field external fluid mechanics of symmetrical OTEC pilot plant designs (20-80 MWe) under realistic deep water conditions. The objective was to assess the environmental impact of different plant ...

    • Annual report, April 1981 - May 1982 : laser induced deposition of thin films 

      Gattuso, Todd Richard; Meunier, M.; Haggerty, John Scarseth (Cambridge, Mass. : Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Energy Laboratory, 1982, 1982)
      A new chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process has been demonstrated with Si thin films. In this process, reactant gases are heated by absorbing light energy emitted from an IR laser. No other surfaces are heated by the ...
