A study on the durability of structural concrete incorporating electric steelmaking slag
(Elsevier, 2018-02-10)
The durability of structural concrete mixes prepared with electric steelmaking aggregates is tested for use in normal and aggressive environments. Samples of “pumpable” and “self-compacting” concrete mixes are shown to ...
An engineering approach for the estimation of slewing bearing stiffness in Wind Turbine Generators
(Wiley, 2018-11-30)
The stiffness of yaw and pitch slewing bearings has a critical influence on the structural
behaviour of Wind Turbine Generators. Thus, it is commonly required by designers for
their simulations to estimate deformations ...
Friction torque in four-point contact slewing bearings: applicability and limitations of current analytical formulations
(Elsevier, 2017-11)
The friction torque is a key parameter in the design of slewing bearings. The most challenging issue in its calculation
resides in the modelling of rolling element contact mechanics. In this manuscript two models for the ...
A novel experimental procedure to determine the cohesive law in ENF tests
(Elsevier, 2019-01)
This study presents a novel method to determine the mode II cohesive law of unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced polymer laminates, employing the End Notched Flexure (ENF) test.
The fracture toughness in mode II (G) ...
Efficient assembly of bolted joints under external loads using numerical FEM
(Elsevier, 2018-05-16)
Several factors can cause leakages in a bolted flange connection, external loads being the
most important one. External loads such as those produced by misalignment introduce an
external axial load combined with a bending ...
Analysis of the DCB test of angle-ply laminates including residual stresses
(Elsevier, 2017-03-14)
[ES] Se propone un nuevo método para obtener la tasa de liberación de energía mediante la prueba de doble viga en voladizo para laminados de capas angulares. Se estudian dos secuencias diferentes, simétrica y antisimétrica. ...
A feedforward controller for tuning laser cladding melt pool geometry in real time
(Springer, 2016-07-12)
In this paper, a feedforward proportional-integral (PI) controller is developed to effectively control and tune the laser cladding melt pool geometry in real time. Width setpoint is included in the computer numerically ...
Analysis of a reversible five-point bending configuration based on a novel two-sense support
(Elsevier, 2015-05)
A novel two-sense support for flexural tests has been designed and manufactured in Ikerlan. The aim of this support is to do two-sense bending fatigue tests. In order to reduce the displacement corresponding to a given ...
Analysis of the regimes in the scanner-based laser hardening process
(Elsevier, 2016-10-10)
Laser hardening is becoming a consolidated process in different industrial sectors such as the automotive industry or in the die and mold industry. The key to ensure the success in this process is to control the surface ...
