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 ... -
The economic impact of climate change on urban drainage master planning in Barcelona
(2021-01)
Article
Open AccessIn the context of global change, urban drainage infrastructures must be planned considering future challenges such as new climate change and urban growth scenarios. Large cities require master plans to properly rank and ... -
Contributions for improving the stability of marine power generation plants
(Elsevier, 2020-06-20)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe Electrical Engineering department of the University FNB/UPC -Barcelona Tech. conducted a large set of real tests on a hybrid propulsion platform with compressed natural gas (CNG) fuel at the facilities of Marina Barcelona ... -
SLM manufacturing redesign of cooling inserts for high production steel moulds and benchmarking with other industrial additive manufacturing strategies
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2020-10-29)
Article
Open AccessMoulding technologies are remarkably effective for parts requiring high production volumes. Yet cooling the moulds after each injection can cause a significant loss of time. A possibility for reducing the cooling times is ... -
Hybrid nonlinear autoregressive neural network—Weibull statistical model applied to the supercritical extraction of lanolin from raw wool
(Springer, 2020-09-09)
Article
Open AccessSupercritical extraction of lanolin from raw wool with modified CO2 (5% ethanol) at temperatures above the melting point of lanolin (T = 36–42 ºC) is difficult to model because of the multicomponent diffusion in the liquid ... -
Real drive cycles analysis by ordered power methodology applied to fuel consumption, CO2, NOx and PM emissions estimation
(Springer, 2021-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn this work three fuel consumption and exhaust emission models, ADVISOR, VT-MICRO and the European Environmental Agency Emission factors, have been used to obtain fuel consumption (FC) and exhaust emissions. These models ... -
Biological responses of ceramic bone spacers produced by green processing of additively manufactured thin meshes
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2020-05-30)
Article
Open AccessBone spacers are exclusively used for replacing the tissue after trauma and/or diseases. Ceramic materials bring positive opportunities to enhance greater osteointegration and performance of implants, yet processing of ... -
Study and comparison of the different costs’ schema associated to geometry, material and processing between 3D printing, injection molding and machining manufacturing technologies
(2020-03-09)
Article
Open AccessCost models to assess and compare the level of expenditure incurred when manufacturing a part by applying different production technologies are of big importance for industrial companies. However, the more precise a cost ... -
Versatile image-based measurements of granular flows and water wave propagation in experiments of tsunamis generated by landslides
(2020-04-01)
Article
Open AccessLandslides falling into water bodies can generate destructive waves, which can be classified as tsunamis. An experimental facility to study this phenomenon has been set up. It consists of a landslidegenerator releasing ... -
Effect of grain size and density of abrasive on surface roughness, material removal rate and acoustic emission signal in rough honing processes
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2019-08-01)
Article
Open AccessHoning processes provide a special cross-hatch pattern to the internal surface of cylinders that favors oil flow. However, along honing operation the abrasive grains wear out and lose their ability to cut material. The ... -
In Vitro Assessment of Bioactive Glass Coatings on Alumina/Zirconia Composite Implants for Potential Use in Prosthetic Applications
(2019-02-08)
Article
Open AccessAchieving the stable osteointegration of prosthetic implants is one of the great challenges of modern orthopedic surgery. The fixation of ceramic acetabular cups of hip joint prostheses is usually achieved using a metal ...
