Teaching mechatronics by means of Stewart platforms
(2024-12)
Article
Open AccessMechatronics is a multifaceted discipline that combines a broad spectrum of knowledge and techniques, posing significant challenges in teaching. It is applied in various fields, including aeronautics, robotics, medical ... -
Influence of breach parameter models on hazard classification of off-stream reservoirs
(Elsevier, 2025-03)
Article
Open AccessThe classification of dams or off-stream reservoirs concerning potential hazards in the event of failure often involves the use of two-dimensional hydraulic models for computing floodwave effects. These models necessitate ... -
2D vermiculite nanolaminated membranes for efficient organic solvent nanofiltration
(John Wiley & Sons, 2025-04-18)
Article
Open AccessMembrane separation technology has found widespread application in molecular sieving and water reclamation. Its use in organic solvent nanofiltration (OSN) has been limited by the modest permeation rates and stability of ... -
Reassessment of porosimetry determinations using water vapor sorption measurements for pastes and concretes containing basaltic aggregates compared to the mercury intrusion method
(MDPI, 2025-05-13)
Article
Open AccessConcrete porosity is one of the fundamental properties for the structural characterization of cementitious materials. This study compares porosity data obtained with dynamic water vapor sorption (DWVS) with the more commonly ... -
Masculinities in maritime education and training: an opportunity to advance towards gender equality
(2025-09)
Article
Open AccessDespite the rising awareness of gender equality in the maritime industry where men’s representation is extremely high, gender equality is often regarded as a “women’s” issue. Why do men not speak about gender equality? An ... -
Advanced finite element approaches for the 2D analysis of multilayered composite and sandwich beams
(Elsevier, 2025-05)
Article
Open AccessThis work presents a new critical overview and a numerical assessment of some advanced Finite Element (FE) approaches for the analysis of multilayered composite and sandwich beams. Firstly, the fundamental hypotheses behind ... -
A comparative analysis of numerical approaches for the description of gas flow in clay-based repository systems: From a laboratory to a large-scale gas injection test
(Elsevier, 2025-06)
Article
Open AccessThere is nowadays a consensus among many countries that geological disposal is a favourable solution for the long-term management. Although different host formations and different barrier systems are under consideration ... -
Effects of water content on the evolution of capillary stress in unsaturated granular soils: DEM simulations
(Elsevier, 2025-08)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyA tensor-type capillary stress, instead of a scalar suction, has been proposed to serve as a stress-like state variable to capture the effects of capillarity in the mechanics of unsaturated granular soils. However, the ... -
On-the-fly meanfield transition-state theory for diffusive molecular dynamics
(Elsevier, 2025-08)
Article
Open AccessWe apply transition state theory to derive atomic-level master equations for mass transport from empirical interatomic potentials within the Diffusive Molecular Dynamics (DMD) framework. We show that meanfield approximation ... -
Modal matrix reduction for fully coupled integrated load analysis of floating structures
(Elsevier, 2025-08)
Article
Open AccessStructural elasticity of floating wind turbines in integrated load analysis (ILA) is typically addressed by modelling the substructure with simplified beam models. The main reason can be found in the computational cost of ... -
Robust geometrical parametrization of the lower limb for the digital twin of patients under compression therapy
(Elsevier, 2025-09)
Article
Open AccessBackground and Objective: Compression therapy is extensively used for the treatment of venous deficiency and edema in the lower limb. The applied compression improves fluid circulation, which reduces the interstitial fluid ...
