3D printed microstructured Au/TiO2 catalyst for hydrogen photoproduction
(Elsevier, 2019-06-25)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyWe successfully 3D printed Au/TiO2 monoliths for photogenerating hydrogen from water/ethanol gaseous mixtures under dynamic conditions. Monolith designs were printed by additive superposition of microfilaments of titania-based ... -
Effect of uncertainty in localized imperfection on the ultimate compressive strength of cold-formed stainless steel hollow sections
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2019-09)
Article
Open AccessStainless steel has excellent corrosion resistance properties, considerable long-term durability, and good mechanical strength. Hollow sections are a versatile and efficient form for construction applications. The use of ... -
Federal conservation units in the Brazilian amazon coastal zone: an adequate approach to control recreational activities?
(2019-08)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyCoastal tourism usually is of enormous interest to local coastal communities due to its potential for the creation of jobs and the generation of income. Within this context, beaches are the main resource since they comprise ... -
Cylindrical samples of brick masonry with aerial lime mortar under compression: experimental and numerical study
(Elsevier, 2019-12)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis research presents an experimental and numerical study focusing on the compression test of cylindrical samples core drilled from existing masonry walls. This method is suitable for the minor destructive assessment of ... -
Experimental analysis of the size effect on the compressive behaviour of cylindrical samples core-drilled from existing brick masonry
(Elsevier, 2019-12)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis paper presents the results of an experimental programme about the evaluation of the size effect on the compressive behaviour of cylindrical samples of existing masonry. The study focuses on the in-situ coring and ... -
Sustainability assessment of trenches including the new eco-trench: a multi-criteria decision-making tool
(2019-11)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyNarrow trenches are a common technique for the installation of utility pipelines of small diameter. Theexcavated soil is not always appropriate as landfill and, in those cases, an appropriate soil from some-where else (ex. ... -
Effect of aggregate type on the fatigue durability of asphalt mixtures
(Elsevier, 2019-11)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe effect of aggregate type on the fatigue behaviour of asphalt mixtures is an important variable for ensuring greater durability of pavements over time. This study presents the main results of an assessment of the effect ... -
Influence of the polymer structure of polycarboxylate-based superplasticizers on the intercalation behaviour in montmorillonite clays
(Elsevier, 2019-09)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe influence of polymeric structure of polycarboxylate-ether (PCE) based superplasticizers on the intercalation behavior in sodium montmorillonite clay (Na-MNT) is investigated by performing in-situ X-ray diffraction ... -
Seismic evaluation method for existing reinforced concrete buildings in North of Morocco
(2019-06)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe purpose of this study is to seismically evaluate reinforced concrete buildings in the northern region of Morocco. In the past, the area have suffered from numerous earthquakes, lately the 2004 earthquake near the city ... -
A modified Finite Element formulation for the imposition of the slip boundary condition over embedded volumeless geometries
(2019-08)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis work describes a novel formulation for the simulation of Navier–Stokes problems including embedded objects. The new proposal is based on the use of a modified finite element space, which replaces the standard one ... -
Efficient aeroelastic analysis of inflatable structures using enhanced potential flow aerodynamics
(2019-10)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyAn efficient method for the aeroelastic analysis of wind effects on inflatable structures is presented. The solution scheme is staggered and uses an explicit finite-element structural solver and potential flow aerodynamics. ... -
