    Article
    Open Access
    This research is concerned with the impact of onboard passengers’ seating arrangement on the carbody flexural vibrations of a high-speed railway vehicle. In this regard, the previously developed passenger body-seat models ...

  • Proper location of the transducers for an active noise barrier 

    Sohrabi, Shahin; Pàmies Gómez, Teresa; Romeu Garbí, Jordi (SAGE PUBLICATIONS INC, 2022-04-15)
    Article
    Open Access
    The main intention of this study is to propose general criteria for the locations of the control sources and error microphones that improve the performance of the active noise barrier. Based on the proposed criteria of ...

  • Combined sensitivity analysis for multiple failure modes 

    Yang, Jiannan; Clot Razquin, Arnau; Langley, Robin (2022-05-10)
    Article
    Open Access
    Sensitivity analysis identifies the influential parameters and it is a key step in the design process. Focusing on reliability based design, the probability of a failure mode and its sensitivity to input uncertainties are ...

  • 2.5D singular boundary method for exterior acoustic radiation and scattering problems 

    Fakhraei, Javad; Arcos Villamarín, Robert; Pàmies Gómez, Teresa; Romeu Garbí, Jordi (2022-10)
    Article
    Open Access
    In this paper, a numerical methodology based on a two-and-a-half-dimensional (2.5D) singular boundary method (SBM) to deal with acoustic radiation and scattering problems in the context of longitudinally invariant structures ...

  • Active noise control for open windows 

    Sohrabi, Shahin; Svensson, Peter; Pàmies Gómez, Teresa; Romeu Garbí, Jordi (2021-08-01)
    Article
    Restricted access - publisher's policy
    Over the last decades, the applications of the active noise control system are broadened. In this study, the active noise control is modeled to reduce the noise pass through an open window. The objective is to define a ...

  • A 2.5D coupled FEM–SBM methodology for soil–structure dynamic interaction problems 

    Liravi, Hassan; Arcos Villamarín, Robert; Clot Razquin, Arnau; Conto Quispe, Kenny Fernando; Romeu Garbí, Jordi (Elsevier, 2022-01-01)
    Article
    Open Access
    In this paper, a novel numerical methodology to deal with longitudinally invariant soil–structure interaction problems is proposed. The methodology uses the finite element method to model the structure and the singular ...

  • A predictive model for fracture in human ribs based on in-vitro acoustic emission data 

    García Vilana, Silvia; Sánchez Molina, David; Llumà Fuentes, Jordi; Fernández Osete, Ismael; Velázquez Ameijide, Juan; Martínez González, Eva (2021-09-01)
    Article
    Open Access
    Purpose The aim of this paper is to propose a fracture model for human ribs based on acoustic emission (AE) data. The accumulation of microcracking until a macroscopic crack is produced can be monitored by AE. The ...

  • Analysis of Different Cylindrical Magnet and Coil Configurations for Electromagnetic Vibration Energy Harvesters 

    Ordóñez Izquierdo, Víctor Hugo; Arcos Villamarín, Robert; Romeu Garbí, Jordi; Reina, Salvatore (2021-06-01)
    Article
    Open Access
    Electromagnetic vibration energy harvesting is a relatively new technology that transforms kinetic energy from mechanical vibrations into electrical energy, allowing the substitution of batteries or cables for powering ...

  • An experimental/numerical hybrid methodology for the prediction of railway-induced ground-borne vibration on buildings to be constructed close to existing railway infrastructures: Numerical validation and parametric study 

    Arcos Villamarín, Robert; Soares, Paulo; Alves Costa, Pedro; Godinho, Luís (Elsevier, 2021-11-01)
    Article
    Open Access
    A novel experimental/numerical hybrid methodology for the assessment of railway-induced ground-borne vibration in buildings based on experimental measurements in the soil surface is proposed in this paper. This methodology ...

  • Vibro-acoustic analysis of a domestic product based on experimental measurement and hybrid modelling 

    Meggitt, J.W.R.; Clot Razquin, Arnau; Elliott, Andrew; Moorhouse, Andy (2021-11-01)
    Article
    Open Access
    The purpose of this paper is to present a case study whereby a hybrid experimental–numerical model is used to analyse the structure-borne radiation from a domestic product (vacuum cleaner head). The passive (including ...

  • Fractal rigidity of the wheel-rail contact 

    Babici, Laura Mariana; Tudor, Andrei; Romeu Garbí, Jordi; Stoica, M. (Institute of Physics (IOP), 2020-12-25)
    Article
    Open Access
    One of the essential parameters of the roughness with effects on the vibration of the wheel and the rail is the contact stiffness. This rigidity considers the geometry and material of the wheel and rail, which are considered ...

  • Influence of anthopometric variables on the mechanical properties of human rib cortical bone 

    Velázquez Ameijide, Juan; García Vilana, Silvia; Sánchez Molina, David; Martínez González, Eva; Llumà Fuentes, Jordi; Rebollo-Soria, M. Carmen; Arregui Dalmases, Carlos (Institute of Physics (IOP), 2021-05-01)
