Analysis of the static and dynamic elastic moduli of a one-coat rendering mortar with laboratory and in situ samples
(Elsevier, 2024-07)
Although the compressive strength is the most commonly used property to characterize mortars, it has limited representativeness in real-world applications. The deformation properties of mortars, specifically the elastic ...
In-Process Machining Distortion Prediction Method Based on Bulk Residual Stresses Estimation from Reduced Layer Removal
(MDPI, 2024-01-03)
Manufacturing structural monolithic components for the aerospace market often involves machining distortion, which entails high costs and material and energy waste in industry. Despite the development of distortion calculation ...
Fatigue Life Estimation Model of Repaired Components with the Expanded Stop-Hole Technique
(MDPI, 2024-02-01)
Fatigue crack growth tests are conducted to assess the efficacy of the stop-hole crack repair method. This straightforward and widely adopted technique involves drilling a hole at the crack tip and subsequently enlarging ...
On-Screen Visual Feedback Effect on Static Balance Assessment with Perturbations
(MDPI, 2024-02-29)
In this study, the novel mobile dynamometric platform, OREKA, was utilized to perform an extensive analysis of the centre of pressure behaviour during different tilt motion exercises. This platform is based on a parallel ...
Failure-Analysis Based Redesign of Furnace Conveyor System Components: A Case Study
(MDPI, 2019-08)
Any manufacturing equipment designed from scratch requires a detailed follow-up of the performance for the first units placed in service during the production ramp-up, so that lessons learned are immediately implemented ...
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 ...
Above-ground biomass estimation from LiDAR data using random forest algorithms
(Elsevier, 2022-02)
Random forest (RF) models were developed to estimate the biomass for the Pinus radiata species in a region of the Basque Autonomous Community where this species has high cover, using the National Forest Inventory, allometric ...
Delamination Fracture Behavior of Unidirectional Carbon Reinforced Composites Applied to Wind Turbine Blades
(MDPI, 2021-01-27)
One of the materials that is used widely for wind turbine blade manufacturing are fiber-reinforced composites. Although glass fiber reinforcement is the most used in wind turbine blades, the use of carbon fiber allows ...
