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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
An active/passive joint for reconfiguration applications
(Springer, 2019-09-07)
In this paper, an active/passive reconfigurable 2R joint is presented. Direct and inverse kinematic problems and the force transmission are considered. The advantages of the current design show its superiority with respect ...
Estrategias mecánicas de las plantas arborescentes: enseñanzas estructurales de los árboles
(Universidad de Tarapacá, 2017-09)
Los árboles son los seres vivos más grandes que jamás han poblado la Tierra, pudiendo tener más de cien metros de altura, masas de varios miles de toneladas y alcanzar edades de varios miles de años. Para conseguirlo, entre ...
Flexural Strength Prediction Models for Soil–Cement from Unconfined Compressive Strength at Seven Days
(MDPI, 2019-01-26)
Soil⁻cement is an environmentally friendly road construction technique for base and subbase materials, which allows employing soils placed in the right-of-way of the road or in the surroundings, by improving its engineering ...
Unexpected Event Prediction in Wire Electrical Discharge Machining Using Deep Learning Techniques
(MDPI, 2018-07)
Theoretical models of manufacturing processes provide a valuable insight into physical phenomena but their application to practical industrial situations is sometimes difficult. In the context of Industry 4.0, artificial ...
Alternatives for Chemical and Biochemical Lignin Valorization: Hot Topics from a Bibliometric Analysis of the Research Published During the 2000–2016 Period
(MDPI, 2018-08)
A complete bibliometric analysis of the Scopus database was performed to identify the research trends related to lignin valorization from 2000 to 2016. The results from this analysis revealed an exponentially increasing ...
