Oscillating U-Shaped Body for Underwater Piezoelectric Energy Harvester Power Optimization
(MDPI, 2019-10-30)
Vibration energy harvesting (VeH) techniques by means of intentionally designed mechanisms have been used in the last decade for frequency bandwidth improvement under excitation for adequately high-vibration amplitudes. ...
The Gender Perspective of Professional Competencies in Industrial Engineering Studies
(MDPI, 2020-04-07)
Sexism and gender relations in higher education require special attention and are a topic of great interest in regulations related to education. The low participation percentage of women in Science, Technology, Engineering, ...
The influence of cutting edge microgeometry on the broaching of Inconel 718 slots
(Elsevier, 2023-12)
In aero-engine production, the dovetails (firtrees) of turbine discs are manufactured by broaching. Introducing innovative micro-geometry modifications to broaching tools can significantly influence cutting force, energy ...
Early detection of tool wear in electromechanical broaching machines by monitoring main stroke servomotors
(Elsevier, 2023-12)
This paper aims to provide researchers and engineers with evidence that sensorless machine variable monitoring can achieve tool wear monitoring in broaching in real production environments, reducing production errors, ...
42CrMo4 steel flow behavior characterization for high temperature closed dies hot forging in automotive components applications
(Elsevier, 2023-11)
The application of new forming processes as the high temperature hot forging in closed dies in an industrial environment still requires further investigation due to the lack of flow stress data at these temperatures. To ...
A Cleaner Milling Process Replacing Emulsion Coolant by Cryogenics CO2
(Springer Nature, 2024-01)
In manufacturing sector, looking for a balance between environmental and technical efficiency taking into account productivity is mandatory. Some sectors, such as the biomedical manufacturing sector, also needs to consider ...
Positional influence of center of masticatory forces on occlusal contact forces using a digital occlusal analyzer
(Elsevier, 2023-06)
Statement of problem. Digital occlusal analyzers allow the recording of dental contact forces.
Some authors assume a unique location for the center of contact forces at the position of
maximum intercuspation, while others ...
Computational Modelling of Rectangular Sub-Boundary Layer Vortex Generators
(MDPI, 2018-01-19)
Vortex generators (VGs) are increasingly used in the wind turbine manufacture industry as flow control devices to improve rotor blade aerodynamic performance. Nevertheless, VGs may produce excess residual drag in some ...
Thermal Performance Assessment of Walls Made of Three Types of Sustainable Concrete Blocks by Means of FEM and Validated through an Extensive Measurement Campaign
(MDPI, 2021-01-04)
The thermal behavior of three different walls, made with and without by-products, is assessed by means of the Finite Element Method, aiming to evaluate its performance in terms of the sustainable construction of the blocks. ...
Calibration patterns for predicting residual strengths of steel fibre reinforced concrete (SFRC)
(Elsevier, 2013-11-12)
Steel Fibre Reinforced Concrete (SFRC), a composite construction material, needs reliable prediction and control techniques to promote its use in structural applications. The distribution and orientation of fibres within ...
