Rigid pavement performance models by means of Markov Chains with half-year step time
(Taylor & Francis, 2019-07-03)
[EN] Pavement management systems employ pavement performance models to plan the most effective allocation of public funds. The most used models are the deterministic and the probabilistic or stochastic ones. Among stochastic ...
L-DED numerical model for sensor embedding
(Elsevier, 2022-11-17)
[EN] Sensor integration is one of the drivers in modern industry for obtaining real-time data and enabling transition to Industry 4.0. Sensor integration on production systems and tooling is one of the key points for data ...
Evaluation of the relevance of melt pool dynamics in Laser Material Deposition process modeling
(Elsevier, 2017-07-14)
The melt pool dynamics consideration in the numeric modeling of the Laser Material Deposition (LMD) process can be enormously difficult and expensive, especially if this calculation is not strictly necessary. The increased ...
Experimental assessment of an End Notched Flexure test configuration with an inserted roller for analyzing mixed-mode I/II fracture toughness
(Elsevier, 2016-09)
This study describes the experimental work related to a test configuration proposed recently, based on an End Notched Flexure test configuration modified with an inserted roller. Various mixed-mode ratio tests have been ...
International Roughness Index (IRI) prediction models for freeways
(Elsevier, 2023)
In Pavement Management Systems (PMS), pavement performance models, or pavement deterioration (or evolution) models are regarded as a key element because they are able to forecast the future condition of the pavement based ...
Laser beam welding analytical model when using wobble strategy
(Elsevier, 2020-12-23)
This article presents a model for estimating the thermal gradient, bead geometry, and microstructure in the laser welding process when the Wobble strategy is used. This method combines the main feed motion with a secondary ...
Instantaneous powder flux regulation system for Laser Metal Deposition
(Elsevier, 2017-09-04)
A new control system for regulating the powder flux during the laser metal deposition process (LMD) has been designed, developed and validated. The powder regulation system is based on a solenoid, which is coupled to the ...
Hardness, grainsize and porosity formation prediction on the Laser Metal Deposition of AISI 304 stainless steel
(Elsevier, 2018-08-14)
[EN] The presented numerical model solves the heat and mass transfer equations in the Laser Metal Deposition process and based on the evolution of the thermal field predicts the grainsize, the resulting hardness and evaluates ...
High-temperature tribological performance of functionally graded Stellite 6/WC metal matrix composite coatings manufactured by laser-directed energy deposition
(Springer, 2023-12-04)
Wear-driven tool failure is one of the main hurdles in the industry. This issue can be addressed through
surface coating with ceramic-reinforced metal matrix composites. However, the maximum ceramic content is
limited ...
Equivalent Energy Release Rate And Crack Stability In The End Notched Flexure With Inserted Roller Mixed Mode I/II Test
(Elsevier, 2017-02)
The crack propagation performance of the End Notched Flexure with inserted roller test is analyzed. An equivalent energy release rate is proposed taking into account the interaction of the modes I and II, based on the ...
