Kinematic Analysis of three degrees of freedom planar parallel continuum mechanisms
(Elsevier, 2023-07)
Parallel continuum mechanisms are a type of compliant mechanisms comprising a rigid end-effector connected to a fixed frame by flexible and slender elements in a closed-kinematic morphology, being their flexibility the ...
The Effects of Lubricooling Ecosustainable Techniques on Tool Wear in Carbon Steel Milling
(MDPI, 2023-04-06)
This research analyses the viability of using cryogenic cooling combined with MQL (minimum quantity lubrication) lubrication, under CryoMQL technology, as a cutting fluid in the industrial environment to justify the increase ...
Effect of Post-Processing Treatment on Fatigue Performance of Ti6Al4V Alloy Manufactured by Laser Powder Bed Fusion
(MDPI, 2023-06-22)
Fatigue properties of parts are of particular concern for safety-critical structures. It is well-known that discontinuities in shape or non-uniformities in materials are frequently a potential nucleus of fatigue failure. ...
A Framework for Climate Resilient Urban Design: The Case of Porte de Montreuil, Paris
(MDPI, 2023-09-18)
With the increasing frequency and intensity of extreme climate events in cities, it is essential to develop multi-scale and multi-hazard design tools to ensure urban climate resilience. A designed approach to urban development ...
Analysis of the influence of L-PBF porosity on the mechanical behavior of AlSi10Mg by XRCT-based FEM
(Elsevier, 2023-01)
This work aims to present an XRCT-based FEM methodology to assess the influence of porosity defects on the mechanical behavior and failure of L-PBF AlSi10Mg components. Hence, the influence of defects on performance is ...
Assessing the economic impacts of forest certification in Spain: A longitudinal study
(Elsevier, 2023-02)
Forest certification has become a strategic instrument for businesses, particularly for accessing sensitive envi-ronmental markets and within sustainability commitments. This trend is also visible in Spain, where PEFC ...
Effects of Mn addittion, cooling rate and holding temperature on the modification and purification of iron-rich compounds in AlSi10MnMg(Fe) alloy
(Elsevier, 2023-02)
The use of secondary aluminum alloys in industry is still limited by the high Fe contents in recycled alloys. In general, the Fe-rich intermetallic compounds deteriorate the performance of secondary Al–Si alloys, specially ...
Frictional contact analysis in a spherical roller bearing
(Oxford University Press, 2023-02)
Numerical analyses of the roller–raceway contact have been carried out in a spherical roller bearing using frictional contact models of different complexity. The models used in the study include an implementation of Kalker’s ...
Composite Mould Design with Multiphysics FEM Computations Guidance
(MDPI, 2023-02-17)
Composite moulds constitute an attractive alternative to classical metallic moulds when used for components fabricated by processes such as Resin Transfer Moulding (RTM). However, there are many factors that have to be ...
Latest Developments to Manufacture Metal Matrix Composites and Functionally Graded Materials through AM: A State-of-the-Art Review
(MDPI, 2023-02-20)
Multi-material structure fabrication has the potential to address some critical challenges in today’s industrial paradigm. While conventional manufacturing processes cannot deliver multi-material structures in a single ...
