Battery dismantling centre in Europe: A centralized vs decentralized analysis
(Elsevier, 2022-11)
Article
Open AccessAt end-of-life, the battery of electric vehicles (EVs) must be properly managed at dedicated facilities to maximize reuse and recycling. Therefore, transportation entails major challenges, as they are not only heavy and ... -
The MONARCH high-resolution reanalysis of desert dust aerosol over Northern Africa, the Middle East and Europe (2007–2016)
(Copernicus Office, 2022-06-21)
Article
Open AccessOne of the challenges in studying desert dust aerosol along with its numerous interactions and impacts is the paucity of direct in situ measurements, particularly in the areas most affected by dust storms. Satellites ... -
Communication strategies on risk and disaster management in South American countries
(Elsevier, 2022-06-15)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyPlanned communication is widely recognized as a fundamental tool for risk and disaster management (RDM). This study aimed to analyze the communication strategy of RDM systems in the context of seven Spanish-speaking countries ... -
Multicriteria analysis of the environmental and economic performance of circularity strategies for concrete waste recycling in Spain
(2022-05-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyConstruction and demolition waste (CDW) is identified by multiple circular economy (CE) policies as a key sector for implementing circularity strategies due to the high volume of waste produced and the large consumption ... -
Thermal comfort of older people during summer in the continental Mediterranean climate
(Elsevier, 2022-05-23)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyGlobally, the population is ageing and extreme weather scenarios are expected, especially in southern European countries. In this context, the study assessed the thermal comfort of older people in five nursing homes in a ... -
Integrating Artificial Intelligence Approaches for Quantitative and Qualitative Analysis in H-BIM
(Springer, 2022-05-16)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyManaging historic buildings is a process in which workers responsible for this task require many time resources. Its optimization through several techniques, such as artificial intelligence, reduces the time related to ... -
Comparative Analysis of the Influence of the Convective Term in the Quantitative Assessment by Infrared Thermography
(Springer, 2022-05-16)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyEnvelope thermal transmittance strongly influences building energy consumption, so there is a significant interest in using methods that assess it accurately. The quantitative infrared thermography method is among the most ... -
Combining Characterization Tests of Building Envelope Thermal Transmittance with the Acoustic Characterization Through Data Mining Approaches
(Springer, 2022-05-16)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyClimate change has forced many sectors to establish measures to achieve decarbonisation. Building is amongst these sectors with the greatest challenge. To achieve decarbonisation, energy improvement measures should be ... -
