An approach to the modelling of stability of waste containers during urban flooding
(2020-01)
Article
Open AccessBefore the solid waste is dumped in landfills, the collection process for large Spanish cities starts from a regular collection of household waste municipal service which is carried out through street containers. When an ... -
Assessment of inlet efficiency through a 3D simulation: numerical and experimental comparison
(2016-10-01)
Article
Open AccessInlet efficiency is a requirement for characterizing the flow transfers between surface and sewer flow during rain events. The dual drainage approach is based on the joint analysis of both upper and lower drainage levels, ... -
Assessment of the ability of a volume of fluid model to reproduce the efficiency of a continuous transverse gully with grate
(2016-10)
Article
Open AccessThis paper deals with the numerical investigation of the drainage efficiency of a continuous transverse gully with the grate’s slots aligned in the flow direction and compared with experimental data sets. The gully efficiency ... -
Assessment of urban flood resilience in Barcelona for current and future scenarios: the RESCCUE project
(2020-07)
Article
Open AccessThe results of recent climate projections for the city of Barcelona show a relevant increment of the maximum rainfall intensities for the period 2071–2100. Considering the city as a system of systems, urban resilience is ... -
Chemisorption of molecular oxygen on Cu(1 0 0): a Hartree¿Fock and density functional study
(2001-02-20)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe interaction of molecular oxygen with the Cu(1 0 0) surface has been studied by using both Hartree–Fock and density functional methods in the framework of the cluster model approach. In this study, we have used the ... -
