Dimensional stability of Electric Arc Furnace slag in civil engineering applications
(Elsevier, 2018-09-15)
Dimensional stability of manufactured aggregates represents a matter of interest for many applications in civil engineering. Past results evidenced how steel slag might be affected by potential swelling, due to several ...
Hardness, grainsize and porosity formation prediction on the Laser Metal Deposition of AISI 304 stainless steel
(Elsevier, 2018-08-14)
[EN] The presented numerical model solves the heat and mass transfer equations in the Laser Metal Deposition process and based on the evolution of the thermal field predicts the grainsize, the resulting hardness and evaluates ...
Thermal performance of sawdust and lime-mud concrete masonry units
(Elsevier, 2018-04)
Over the past three decades, growing interest in the properties of thermal envelopes and their enhancement has led to the development of new sustainable materials. Nevertheless, Concrete Masonry Units (CMUs) with negligible ...
On the development and evolution of wear flats in microcrystalline sintered alumina grinding wheels.
(Elsevier, 2018-03-26)
Wheel wear is a critical issue for grinding process optimization. This is why it receives so much attentionboth from Academia and industry. The development of new generations of abrasive wheels requiresimproving the ...
Sustainable Alternative of Structural Concrete Retaining Tanks
(Emerald Publishing, 2018-05)
The environmental footprint of the construction industry requires the quantification of new developments to appraise their sustainable contribution. Recent developments in relation to the merging of steel fibre reinforced ...
Gurney Flap Implementation on a DU91W250 Airfoil
(MDPI, 2018-11-06)
Abstract
The increasing capability of Wind Turbine (WT) based power generation systems has derived in an increment of the WT rotor diameter, i.e., longer rotor blades. This results in an increase of the electrical power ...
