  Analytical solution to assess the induced seismicity potential of faults in pressurized and depleted reservoirs 

  Wu, Haiqing; Vilarrasa Riaño, Víctor; De Simone, Silvia; Saaltink, Maarten Willem; Parisio, Francesco (2021-01)
  Article
  Open Access

  Displaced faults crossing the reservoir could significantly increase the induced earthquake frequency in geo-energy projects. Understanding and predicting the stress variation in such cases is essential to minimize the ...

  Child mortality levels and trends: a new compositional approach 

  Ezbakhe, Fatine; Pérez Foguet, Agustí (2020-07)
  Article
  Open Access

  Background: Trend analysis of child mortality is vital to evaluate countries’ progress towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goal on health (SDG 3). However, strictly speaking, child mortality data are probabilities, ...

  Probabilistic characterisation of coastal storm-induced risks using Bayesian networks 

  Sanuy Vázquez, Marc; Jiménez Quintana, José Antonio (2021-01)
  Article
  Open Access

  A probabilistic estimation of hazards based on the response approach requires assessing large amounts of source characteristics, representing an entire storm climate. In addition, the coast is a dynamic environment, and ...
• A combined kernel-PCA with clustering analysis for bridge damage detection under changing environmental conditions 

  Delgadillo Ayala, Rick Milton; Casas Rius, Joan Ramon (2020)
  Conference report

  Damage caused in bridges can be hidden by the service conditions mainly due to environment effects as temperature and traffic loading. The literature review indicates that the majority of investigations are limited since ...
• An adaptive Finite Element strategy for the numerical simulation of additive manufacturing processes 

  Baiges Aznar, Joan; Chiumenti, Michele; Filho, Carlos Augusto Moreira; Cervera Ruiz, Miguel; Codina, Ramon (Elsevier, 2021-01)
  Article

  In this work an adaptive Finite Element strategy to deal with the numerical simulation of Additive Manufacturing (AM) processes is presented. The Selective Laser Melting (SLM) is chosen as the reference technology because ...
• Discharge coefficients for specific grated inlets: influence of the Froude number 

  Cosco, Chiara; Gómez Valentín, Manuel; Russo, Beniamino; Tellez Alvarez, Jackson David; Macchione, Francesco; Costanzo, Carmelina (2020-09)
  Article

  Quantification of energy loss in two grated inlets under pressure 

  Tellez Alvarez, Jackson David; Gómez Valentín, Manuel; Russo, Beniamino (2020-06)
  Article
  Open Access

  Grated inlets have the normal function of collecting the surface runoff into sewer networks, but when the flow exceeds the capacity of the sewer pipes and conduits get pressurized, an outflow from the sewer manholes and ...
• Reconstructing the Aznalcóllar mine accident 20 year later: numerical modelling of the flood 

  Sanz Ramos, Marcos; Bladé i Castellet, Ernest; Dolz Ripollès, Josep (CRC Press, 2020)
  Conference report
