On the Cutting Performance of Segmented Diamond Blades when Dry-Cutting Concrete
(MDPI, 2018-02-09)
The objective of the present study is to analyze and compare the cutting performance of segmented diamond blades when dry-cutting concrete. A cutting criteria is proposed to characterize the wear of the blades by measuring ...
Short-Cut Method to Assess a Gross Available Energy in a Medium-Load Screw Friction Press
(MDPI, 2018-03)
The present study proposed a rapid method, based on a previous universal compression tests, to estimate the required load capacity to cold forge different specimen quantity in a screw press. Accordingly, experimental and ...
Analysis of the Part Distortions for Inconel 718 SLM: A Case Study on the NIST Test Artifact
(MDPI, 2020-11-11)
The present paper evaluates the misalignment and geometry distortion of the standard National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) test artifact in Inconel 718 alloy, when several layers with and without supports ...
An Original Tribometer to Analyze the Behavior of Abrasive Grains in the Grinding Process
(MDPI, 2018-07)
Manufacturing of grinding wheels is continuously adapting to new industrial requirements. New abrasives and new wheel configurations, together with wheel wear control allow for grinding process optimization. However, the ...
Dynamic optimization of track components to minimize rail corrugation
(Elsevier, 2009-01)
In this paper, the influence on corrugation of the most significant track parameters has been examined. After this parametric study, the optimization of the track parameters to minimize the undulatory wear growth has been ...
A comprehensive method for the elastic calculation of the two-point wheel-rail contact
(Taylor & Francis, 2006)
This work shows the method developed to solve the wheel-rail contact problem via a look-up table with a three-dimensional elastic model. This method enables introduction of the two contact point effect on vehicle movement ...
Deep Learning-Based Feature Extraction of Acoustic Emission Signals for Monitoring Wear of Grinding Wheels
(MDPI, 2022-09-13)
Tool wear monitoring is a critical issue in advanced manufacturing systems. In the search for sensing devices that can provide information about the grinding process, Acoustic Emission (AE) appears to be a promising ...
The patents in the introduction of reinforced concrete in Spain: "Alhondiga de Bilbao" case study
(Instituto de Ciencias de la Construcción Eduardo Torroja, 2014-06)
Reinforced concrete structures are introduced in Spain mainly by French influence. This happens in the late nineteenth century, following the scheme operating through proprietary systems prevailing in Europe. Systems ...
Virtual Sensors for On-line Wheel Wear and Part Roughness Measurement in the Grinding Process
(MDPI, 2014-05)
Grinding is an advanced machining process for the manufacturing of valuable complex and accurate parts for high added value sectors such as aerospace, wind generation, etc. Due to the extremely severe conditions inside ...
Fiber-reinforcement and its effects on the mechanical properties of high-workability concretes manufactured with slag as aggregate and binder
(Elsevier, 2021-11)
[EN]The feasibility of manufacturing fiber-reinforced concretes of high workability through additions of high volumes of electric arc furnace steel slag is evaluated in this paper, using sustainable binders with ground ...
