Comparative Study of the Metallurgical Quality of Primary and Secondary AlSi10MnMg Aluminium Alloys
(MDPI, 2021)
The use of secondary aluminium is increasingly being promoted in the automotive industry for environmental reasons. The purpose of this study was to demonstrate that it is possible to obtain a recycled AlSi10MnMg(Fe) ...
Electrochemical Model and Sigma Point Kalman Filter Based Online Oriented Battery Model
(IEEE, 2021)
This paper presents a reduced-order electrochemical battery model designed for online implementation of battery control systems. This model is based on porous-electrode and concentratedsolution theory frameworks and is ...
Assessing the statistical validity of momentum-deficit-based measurements in turbulent configurations
(Elsevier Ltd., 2021)
An application-agnostic procedure is outlined for checking the validity of momentum-deficit-based drag measurements performed under different turbulent conditions in a wind tunnel. The approach defines a two-step methodology: ...
New drawbead tester and numerical analysis of drawbeads closure force
(Springer, 2021)
Currently, a great deal of controversy exists regarding the real forces generated in drawbeads during sheet metal forming processes. The present work focuses on the analysis of the uplift force. First, a detailed literature ...
Human‑centred design in industry 4.0: case study review and opportunities for future research
(Springer, 2021)
The transition to industry 4.0 has impacted factories, but it also afects the entire value chain. In this sense, human-centred factors play a core role in transitioning to sustainable manufacturing processes and consumption. ...
Circular economy implementation in the agricultural sector: Definition, strategies and indicators
(Elsevier B.V., 2021)
In the current context of resource scarcity, global climate change, environmental degradation, and increasing food demand, the circular economy (CE) represents a promising strategy for supporting sustainable, restorative, ...
Numerical analysis of different mass transfer models for falling film absorbers
(Elsevier Ltd., 2022)
Different methodologies have been used in the literature to determine the absorbed vapour mass flux in falling film absorbers. So far, however, there has been little discussion about the impact of different ap- proaches ...
Design of a Radiant Heat Capturing Device for Steel Mills
(International Centre for Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems, 2021)
This paper approaches the energy transition towards decarbonization and lower primary energy use in the steel and glass industries through the exploitation of radiant waste heat. In contrast with exhaust gases heat recovery, ...
A novel formulation for radial fretting wear: Application to false brinelling in thrust bearings
(Elsevier Ltd., 2021)
Radial fretting is defined as the damage caused by the relative motion of a ball under a variable normal load. The conducted experimental tests proved the existence of this damage even in contacting bodies with similar ...
New design for assembly (DfA) methodology for large and heavy parts assembled on site
(Elsevier Ltd., 2021)
A literature review on the assembly design methodologies (DfA) oriented to the assembly of large and heavy parts, reveals the need to develop a DfA methodology. In addition, the lack of DfA evaluation methods for on-site ...
