The dual integrated force method applied to unidirectional composites
(John Wiley & Sons, 2014-04-07)
This paper shows the use of the dual integrated force method (IFMD) in finite elements method and its application to composite materials. This method was developed by S.N. Patnaik in isotropic materials, considering not ...
Textile-reinforced mortar as strengthening material for masonry arches
(Taylor & Francis, 2014-09-03)
[EN] Masonry arches are an important part of built heritage that must be preserved. Research and advanced studies of historical masonry structures have progressed slowly in comparison to studies on structures made of other ...
On preventing the dripping effect of overhang constraints in topology optimization for additive manufacturing
(Springer, 2021-09-14)
This article falls within the scope of topology optimization for Additive Manufacturing processes and proposes an alternative strategy to prevent the phenomenon known as the Dripping Effect. The Dripping Effect is when an ...
On The Influence of Rotary Dresser Geometry on Wear Evolution and Grinding Process
(MDPI, 2019-11-22)
Dressing is a critical issue for optimizing the grinding process. Dresser tool and dresser
parameters must be designed according to the grinding wheel material, shape, or even the dimensional and geometrical tolerances ...
The use of steelmaking slags and fly ash in structural mortars
(Elsevier, 2016-03)
The main objective of this work is to produce structural slag mortars of good mechanical strength and workability, while reducing the consumption of Portland clinker, the production of which is a growing source of environmental ...
Self-compacting concrete incorporating electric arc-furnace steelmaking slag as aggregate
(Elsevier, 2016-11-17)
Electric arc-furnace slag (EAFS) is an industrial by-product that can be employed in hydraulic mixes used in the field of construction and civil engineering. The design and preparation of self-compacting mixes with this ...
A novel python-based floating offshore wind turbine simulation framework
(Elsevier, 2024-02)
The expansion of floating offshore wind brings the industry closer to achieving commercial viability. However, the challenging environment characterised by strong winds, waves, and currents, along with the growing size of ...
Digital Twin of the laser-DED process based on a multiscale approach
(Elsevier, 2024-04)
The ramp-up of new geometries, process parameters, and materials can be enormously time and cost-intensive in Additive Manufacturing. Especially for Laser-Directed Energy Deposition (DED-L), the extreme physical environment ...
Influence of V concentration in TiAlSiVN coating on self-lubrication, friction and tool wear during two-pass dry turning of austenitic steel 316 L
(Elsevier, 2024-05)
The present work investigates the performance of TiAlSiVN coating with 5 and 11 at% of V concentration deposited on the Al2O3/SiC cutting tools during dry turning of austenitic 316 L stainless steel. The maximum flank wear ...
Sustainable Alternative of Structural Concrete Retaining Tanks
(Emerald Publishing, 2018-05)
The environmental footprint of the construction industry requires the quantification of new developments to appraise their sustainable contribution. Recent developments in relation to the merging of steel fibre reinforced ...
