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
(Elsevier, 2021-11-01)
Article
Open AccessA 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 ... -
Experimental technique to analyze the influence of cutting conditions on specific energy consumption during abrasive metal cutting with thin discs
(Springer, 2021-08-09)
Article
Open AccessSpecific energy consumption is an important indicator for a better understanding of the machinability of materials. The present study aims to estimate the specific energy consumption for abrasive metal cutting with ultra-thin ... -
Vibro-acoustic analysis of a domestic product based on experimental measurement and hybrid modelling
(2021-11-01)
Article
Open AccessThe 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
(Institute of Physics (IOP), 2020-12-25)
Article
Open AccessOne 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 ... -

(2021-05-01)
Article
Open AccessIn the last ten years, there has been a progressive improvement in rural electrification indexes in developing countries, and renewable energies are progressively being integrated into electrification programs. In Cuba, ... -
Flow control in porous media: from numerical analysis to quantitative µPAD for ionic strength measurements
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2021-05-11)
Article
Open AccessMicrofluidic paper-based analytical devices (µPADs) are a promising technology to enable accurate and quantitative in situ assays. Paper’s inherent hydrophilicity drives the fluids without the need for external pressure ... -
Renewable-based electrification for remote locations. Does short-term success endure over time? A case study in Peru
(2021-08)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyStand-alone electrification systems based on renewable energies are suitable for electrifying isolated rural communities. After some years of operation, their impact on the development of beneficiaries must be evaluated; ... -
Design of stand-alone electrification systems using fuzzy mathematical programming approaches
(2021-08)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyCurrently, around 1.1 billion people lack access to electricity, mainly in developing countries. Solar photovoltaic systems can provide electricity, but the design is complex, having to size and site the equipment. Besides, ... -
A factorization-based algorithm to predict EMG data using only kinematics information
(2021-07-08)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyEMG analyses have several applications, such as identifying muscle excitation patterns during rehabilitation or training plans, or controlling EMG-driven devices. However, experimental measurements can be time consuming ... -
Portable 3D-printed sensor to measure ionic strength and pH in buffered and non-buffered solutions
(2020-01-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyA miniaturized 3D-printed device has been designed, manufactured and validated to perform as a low-cost sensor for compositional analysis of buffered and non-buffered solutions in industrial or remote areas. The proposed ... -
Personalised high tibial osteotomy has mechanical safety equivalent to generic device in a case–control in silico clinical trial
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2021-06-30)
Article
Open AccessBackground Despite favourable outcomes relatively few surgeons offer high tibial osteotomy (HTO) as a treatment option for early knee osteoarthritis, mainly due to the difficulty of achieving planned correction and reported ... -
