Hardening prediction of diverse materials using the Digital Image Correlation technique
(Elsevier, 2018)
In recent years, due to the introduction of higher resistance materials in the automotive sector, sheet metal-forming tool-makers have been forced to deal with more challenging process designs. Therefore, the optimisation ...
Fe nanoparticles produced by electric explosion of wire for new generation of magneto-rheological fluids
(IOP Publishing, 2018)
Iron magnetic nanoparticles were produced by the technique of the electric explosion of a wire (EEW). The major crystalline phase (95 ± 1%) was α-Fe with lattice parameter a = 0.2863(3) nm. The size of the coherent diffraction ...
In-depth Life Cycle Cost Analysis of a Li-ion Battery-based Hybrid Diesel-Electric Multiple Unit
(IEEE, 2020)
This study analyzes the life cycle costs of railway projects involving hybrid diesel-electric multiple units, focusing on the influence of lithium-ion battery technologies and energy management strategies. Specifically, 3 ...
Partial Power Processing Based Charging Unit for Electric Vehicle Extreme Fast Charging Stations
(IEEE, 2020)
This paper presents an analysis and design of a charging unit inside an electric vehicle extreme fast charging station. Due to the benefits that partial power processing achieves in terms of size reduction and efficiency ...
A methodology for model-based verification of safety contracts and performance requirements
(SAGE, 2018)
The verification of safety requirements becomes crucial in critical systems where human lives depend on their correct functioning. Formal methods have often been advocated as necessary to ensure the reliability of software ...
Study of alternatives and experimental validation for predictions of hole-edge fatigue crack growth in 42CrMo4 steel
(Elsevier, 2018)
The objective of this work is to establish pertinent criteria allowing an optimal alternative to be chosen for calculating the inputs needed to make Run/Repair/Replace decisions and to program inspection plans for cracked ...
Robustness of inventory replenishment and customer selection policies for the dynamic and stochastic inventory-routing problemRobustness of inventory replenishment policies and client selection methods for the stochastic and dynamic inventory-routing problem
(Elsevier, 2016)
When inventory management, distribution and routing decisions are determined simultaneously, implementing a vendor-managed inventory strategy, a difficult combinatorial optimization problem must be solved to determine which ...
A case study on the use of machine learning techniques for supporting technology watch
(Elsevier, 2018)
Technology Watch human agents have to read many documents in order to manually categorize and dispatch them to the correct expert, that will later add valued information to each document. In this two step process, the first ...
A modified genetic algorithm applied to the elevator dispatching problem
(Springer, 2016)
Reduction of passenger waiting time in a multiple elevator system is an important goal in the lift industry. Genetic algorithms (GAs) have been applied to the dispatching problem in vertical transportation. In this paper, ...
Connotative meaning of travel modes and activity-travel behavior
(Elsevier Ltd, 2018)
This paper aims to present results of a study regarding how the meaning of travel modes influences on the performance of activities and trips.
Connotative meaning of travel modes was measured using semantic differential ...
