Tools for assessing qualitatively the level of circularity of organisations: Applicability to different sectors
Elsevier (2023)The transition towards a circular economy (CE) has been identified as one of the biggest challenges for our society in general and for organisations in particular. In this context, organisations have begun to call for ... -
Toward Early and Objective Hand Osteoarthritis Detection by Using EMG during Grasps
MDPI (2023)The early and objective detection of hand pathologies is a field that still requires more research. One of the main signs of hand osteoarthritis (HOA) is joint degeneration, which causes loss of strength, among other ... -
Towards a Vector Field Based Approach to the Proper Generalized Decomposition (PGD)
MDPI (2021)A novel algorithm called the Proper Generalized Decomposition (PGD) is widely used by the engineering community to compute the solution of high dimensional problems. However, it is well-known that the bottleneck of its ... -
Towards Fish Welfare in the Presence of Robots: Zebrafish Case
MDPI (2024-05-31)Zebrafish (Danio rerio) have emerged as a valuable animal model for neurobehavioral research, particularly in the study of anxiety-related states. This article explores the use of conceptual models to investigate stress, ... -
Towards sustainable process heating at 250 °C: Modeling and optimization of an R1336mzz(Z) transcritical High-Temperature heat pump
Elsevier (2024-04-01)Fossil fuel boilers typically produce high-temperature process heating due to the impossibility of current renewable technologies. Vapour compression heat pump systems have been proposed up to 200 °C with subcritical cycles. ... -
Track–bridge interaction effects in the acceleration and displacement response of high-speed railway bridges: Simplified vs refined modelling
Elsevier (2024-06-08)The prediction of structural vibrations induced by high-speed trains is crucial for designing bridge structures, as well as for the assessment of the dynamic compatibility between bridges and rolling stock in large railway ... -
Transverse vibrations in existing railway bridges under resonant conditions: Single-track versus double-track configurations
Elsevier (2010)In this paper, the dynamic performance of a certain kind of existing bridge under the action of high-speed railway traffic is addressed. Short-to-medium-span simply supported structures are susceptible to experiencing ... -

Elsevier (2010)In this paper, the dynamic performance of a certain kind of existing bridge under the action of high-speed railway traffic is addressed. Short-to-medium-span simply supported structures are susceptible to experiencing ... -
Tribological Analysis and Operation Issues of SiO2 Nanolubricants for MQL Machining Operations
Trans Tech Publications (2023-10)Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL) has been proved to be an efficient lubricant technique in machining that increases tool life, improves surface roughness, facilitates the recycling of the resulting chips, brings more ... -
Two FE models to analyse the dynamic response of short span simply-supported oblique high-speed railway bridges: Comparison and experimental validation
Elsevier (2018-07-15)In this paper the dynamic response of a particular type of high-speed railway bridge common in the Spanish railway system is analysed with the aim of evaluating the levels of vertical vibrations experienced at the platform. ... -
Ultimate capacity od rectangular concrete-filled steel tubular columns under unequal load eccentricities
Elsevier (2012-01)The paper describes 36 experimental tests conducted on rectangular and square tubular columns filled with normal and high strength concrete and subjected to a non-constant bending moment distribution with respect to the ... -
