B-Cube, Behavioural modelling of technical artefacts
Elsevier (2013-01)A new model, B-Cube, is described for managing knowledge at the behaviour level of the function–behaviour–structure framework. The model proposes a three-dimensional approach to the behavioural modelling of technical ... -
Ballast shear effects on the dynamic response of railway bridges
Elsevier (2022-10-09)Single-track railway bridges are susceptible of experiencing high levels of vertical acceleration on the deck that may be dangerously accentuated at resonance. This is especially critical for short-to-medium span simply ... -
Ballasted track interaction effects in railway bridges with simply-supported spans composed by adjacent twin single-track decks
Elsevier (2021-09-08)This paper is devoted to track-bridge interaction phenomena in railway bridges of short simply-supported (SS) spans composed by ballasted tracks. These structures may experience high vertical acceleration levels under ... -
Barracas on the Mediterranean Coast
Taylor & Francis (2011)A cultural heritage approach is used to present a scientific analysis of a traditional building method. A series of detailed monographs are referenced. The article discusses the Central European conservation theories of ... -
Behavior of Rejects from a Biological-Mechanical Treatment Plant on the Landfill to Laboratory Scale
MDPI (2020)This paper describes the laboratory-scale simulation of the behaviour of rejects from a biological-mechanical treatment (BMT) plant in Castellón (Spain). For this purpose, four lysimeters were built, with different densities. ... -
Behaviour of metakaolin-based geopolymers incorporating sewage sludge ash (SSA)
Elsevier (2016)In recent years, geopolymers have become a widely researched binding material. There are technological and environmental advantages to using this type of binder instead of Portland cement. In this study, binary systems of ... -
Behaviour of slender concrete-filled dual steel tubular columns subjected to eccentric loads
Elsevier (2020-10-11)In this paper an experimental program on concrete-filled steel tubular columns subjected to eccentric loads is presented. The columns have different cross-sectional configurations, including single concrete-filled steel ... -
Benchmarking anthropomorphic hands through grasping simulations
Oxford University Press (2022-02-25)In recent decades, the design of anthropomorphic hands has been developed greatly improving both cosmesis and functionality. Experimentation, simulation, and combined approaches have been used in the literature to assess ... -
Benchmarking of useful phase change materials for a building application
Elsevier (2019-01-01)Nowadays, there is an increasing interest in more efficient building materials and new technologies to accomplish the objectives defined by energy policies. The combination of energy efficient building designs and integration ... -
Bentonite as an active natural filler for silicone leading to piezoelectric-like response material
Elsevier (2022-01-10)Raw sodium bentonite (Bent) without preliminary treatments is incorporated as a filler in a silicone matrix, from 5 to 100 parts per hundred (pph), by weight, by simple mixing in solution. The mixtures are processed as ... -
Beyond the intangible/tangible binary: an analysis of historic built environments in Valencia
National Folk Museum of Korea (2019)This paper is a theoretical reflection aiming to understand how specific assets of intangible heritage are affected by contemporary discourse. This approach focuses on understanding the protection, preservation and ... -
Bio-inspired design as a solution to generate creative and circular product concepts
Taylor & Francis (2022-10-15)Consumers are showing a growing concern for the environment and sustainability, while they keep their interest in more creative products that ‘delight’ them and exceed their expectations. Consequently, designers must meet ... -
Biodrying as a biological process to diminish moisture in gardening and harvest wastes
Springer Verlag (2012)Biodrying is a process that consists in reducing the moisture content and stabilizing organic compounds to obtain a useful product, such as a fuel, or as a previous step to landfilling. This is achieved by using the heat ... -
Biodrying under Greenhouse Conditions as Pretreatment for Horticultural Waste
Scientific Research Publishing (2012)The biodrying process was studied as an alternative technology to reduce the mass and volume of horticultural waste. Four static piles were prepared inside a greenhouse: two containing whole waste and two consisting of ... -
Biological reactor retrofitting using CFD-ASM modelling
Elsevier (2018-09-15)In recent years, the interest in modelling activated sludge (AS) systems by means of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) techniques has significantly increased. This work shows a successful case study combining CFD hydrodynamics ... -
Biomechanical function requirements of the wrist. Circumduction versus flexion/abduction range of motion
Elsevier (2020-07-30)The biomechanical function of the wrist is widely assessed by measuring the range of motion (RoM) in two separate orthogonal planes: flexion–extension (FE) and radioulnar deviation (RUD). However, the two motions are ... -
Biometanización a partir de lodos de EDAR y rechazos de planta de compostaje
TIASA (2009)La mezcla de rechazos procedentes de plantas de compostaje y de lodos de EDAR urbanas se plantea como una alternativa para la valorización de estos residuos mediante su biometanización. Con ello se puede obtener un último ... -
Bottoming organic Rankine cycle configurations to increase Internal Combustion Engines power output from cooling water waste heat recovery
Elsevier (2013-11-03)This work is focused on waste heat recovery of jacket cooling water from Internal Combustion Engines (ICEs). Cooling water heat does not always find use due to its low temperature, typically around 90 °C, and usually is ... -
