System resistance of stainless steel portal frames under gravity loads
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2021-03)
Dataset
Open Access -
Mechanical and durability characterization of a new textile waste micro-fiber reinforced cement composite for building applications
(Elsevier, 2021-06)
Article
Open AccessFiber reinforced mortars (FRM) are growingly used in several fields of building technology (e.g., façade panels, roofing, raised floors and masonry structures) as building elements. One of the promising type of fiber for ... -
Towards higher temperatures in nuclear waste repositories
(EDP Sciences, 2020-11)
Article
Open AccessRecently, there is a tendency to explore the possibility of increasing the maximum design temperature in deep geological repositories for high-level nuclear waste and spent fuel. In the paper, a number of issues related ... -
Modeling multiphase flow with a hybrid model based on the Pore-network and the lattice Boltzmann method
(EDP Sciences, 2020-10)
Article
Open AccessLattice Boltzmann method (LBM) simulations provide an excellent description of two-phase flow through porous media. However, such simulations require a significant computation time. In order to optimize the computation ... -
Investigation of the evolution of clay microstructure under different loading paths and impact on constitutive modelling
(Iris Publishers LLC, 2020-04)
Article
Open AccessPart of a research programme concerning the investigation of the evolution of clay microstructure under different loading paths is presented. The material is a stiff over consolidated natural clay, strongly bonded by ... -
System-based reliability analysis of stainless steel frames under gravity loads
(Elsevier, 2021-03)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyCurrent structural codes for steel and stainless steel structures such as AISC 360-16, AISC 370-21, AS/NZS 4100 and Eurocode 3 are based on the traditional two-step member-based design approach, in which internal actions ... -
Efficiency and survivability analysis of a point-absorber wave energy converter using DualSPHysics
(2020-12)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policySmoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method is used here to simulate a heaving point-absorber with a Power Take-Off system (PTO). The SPH-based code DualSPHysics is first validated with experimental data of regular waves ... -
Constructed wetlands operated as bioelectrochemical systems for the removal of organic micropollutants
(2021-05)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe removal of organic micropollutants (OMPs) has been investigated in constructed wetlands (CWs) operated as bioelectrochemical systems (BES). The operation of CWs as BES (CW-BES), either in the form of microbial fuel ... -
Regularisation in ejection-collision orbits of the RTBP
(2018)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyNumerical explorations confirm well-known analytical results on the ex-istence of ejection-collision orbits in the restricted three-body problem for veryrestrictive values of the Jacobi constantC. For different values ... -
Parametric solutions involving geometry: a step towards efficient shape optimization
(2014-01)
Article
Open AccessOptimization of manufacturing processes or structures involves the optimal choice of many parameters (process parameters, material parameters or geometrical parameters). Usual strategies proceed by defining a trial choice ... -
Optimal prestress investigation on tensegrity structures using artificial fish swarm algorithm
(Hindawi, 2020-09-08)
Article
Open AccessTo obtain the optimal uniform prestress of a tensegrity structure with geometric configuration given, a novel method is developed for prestress design of tensegrity structures by utilizing the artificial fish swarm algorithm ... -
Correlations between oceanic crustal thickness, melt volume, and spreading rate from global gravity observation
(2020-09)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyOceanic crustal accretion at mid-ocean ridges is a function of spreading rate, mantle temperature, and composition, which are intertwined in affecting melt production and oceanic crustal thickness. Sparse and irregular ...
