CREMIT - Centre de Recerca de Motors i Instal·lacions Tèrmiques
Unió funcional de dos grups de recerca ja consolidats i especialitzats en els àmbits de motors tèrmics i instal·lacions tèrmiques motores (CREMIT) l'un, i en màquines Frigorífiques, bombes de calor i processos de transferència de calor (CER) l'altre.
Els objectius comuns per als propers tres anys són els següents:
- la generació de coneixement expressada en publicacions científiques en els àmbits esmentats, i
- la transferència de resultats de la recerca a les empreses i institucions mitjançant acords i convenis específics de col·laboració.
The aim is to join two small, consolidated research groups, one of which specialises in heat engines and machines (CREMIT) and the other in cooling and heating equipment (CER). The common aims for the next three years are to produce knowledge for publication in scientific journals in the aforementioned fields and to transfer the results of research to companies and public institutions.

FSLAM: A QGIS plugin for fast regional susceptibility assessment of rainfall-induced landslides
(Elsevier, 2022-04)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyShallow slope failures triggered by rainfall commonly pose considerable risks in mountainous areas. In order to delineate areas where landslides are more prone to occur within a region, we have designed and developed a ... -
A Framework to Project Future Rainfall Scenarios: An Application to Shallow Landslide-Triggering Summer Rainfall in Wanzhou County China
(2022-03-01)
Article
Open AccessFatal landslides are a widespread geohazard that have affected millions of people and have claimed the lives of thousands around the globe. A change in climate has significantly increased the frequency and magnitude of ... -
Impacts of future climate and land cover changes on landslide susceptibility: regional scale modelling in the Val d’Aran region (Pyrenees, Spain)
(2022-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyIt is widely accepted that future environmental changes will affect rainfall-induced shallow slides in high-mountain areas. In this study, the Val d’Aran region located in the Central Pyrenees was selected to analyze and ... -
Titanium based bone implants production using laser powder bed fusion technology
(Elsevier, 2022-03)
Article
Open AccessAdditive manufacturing (AM) enables fully dense biomimetic implants in the designed geometries from preferred materials such as titanium and its alloys. Titanium aluminum vanadium (Ti6Al4V) is one of the pioneer metal ... -
Fast physically-based model for rainfall-induced landslide susceptibility assessment at regional scale
(2021-06-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyRainfall-induced landslides represent an important threat in mountainous areas. Therefore, a physically-based model called “Fast Shallow Landslide Assessment Model” (FSLAM) was developed to calculate large areas (>100 km2 ... -
Re-design of a component of a lower-limb robotic exoskeleton for integrating sensing capacity and enhancing multi-material direct additive manufacturing
(2021)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyExoskeletons are high value-added products, usually manufactured in small series and often required to be adapted to the user. The user comfort is required to be maximum, whilst several sensing and actuating elements must ... -

Article
Open AccessThe quest for the materialisation of advanced products is expanding the need for intelligent components and devices. One of the fields of application for such products is the medical technology industry, in which many ... -
Effect of land cover and climate changes on rainfall-induced landslides: regional-scale modelling in the Val d’Aran (Pyrenees, Spain)
(International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE), 2021)
Conference report
Open AccessThe analysis of the impacts of future environmental changes on rainfall-induced landslides is of great importance. Recent studies have shown that these changes will affect the frequency and magnitude of shallow slides and ... -
The energy transfer from granular landslides to water bodies explained by a data-driven, physics-based numerical model
(2020-10-29)
Article
Open AccessLandslides falling into water can trigger tsunamis, which are particularly destructive in the proximity of the landslide impact and in narrow water bodies. The energy transfer mechanism between landslide and water wave is ... -
Mathematical modelling of supercritical fluid extraction of liquid lanoline from raw wool. Solubility and mass transfer rate parameters
(2020-12-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyA new mathematical model is presented for the supercritical fluid extraction of lanoline from wool using near-critical ethanol-modified CO2, using our previous experimental data. The model is intended to account for the ... -
