Depth-resolved mechanical behaviour of shot peened 7050-T7451 aluminium surfaces using in-situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction
(Elsevier, 2024)We have assessed the elasto-plastic (sub)surface behaviour of 7050-T7451 aluminium alloy treated by shot peening using S110 steel shots of 300 μm in diameter and two different intensities, namely Almen intensity (A) of 3.4 ... -
Communications and Data Science for the Success of Vehicle-to-Grid Technologies: Current State and Future Trends
(MDPI, 2024)Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology has emerged as a promising solution for enhancing the integration of electric vehicles (EVs) into the electric grid, offering benefits, such as distributed energy resource (DER) integration, ... -
Simple and Affordable Method for Fast Transient Measurements of SiC Devices
(IEEE, 2020)The measurement of fast voltage and current transients of Silicon Carbide (SiC) devices requires high bandwidth (BW) probes. Commercially available voltage and current probes can be expensive, and, in addition, the delay ... -
Towards manufacturing robotics accuracy degradation assessment: A vision-based data-driven implementation
(Elsevier, 2021)In this manuscript we report on a vision-based data-driven methodology for industrial robot health assessment. We provide an experimental evidence of the usefulness of our methodology on a system comprised of a 6-axis ... -
Cookies from the Past: Timing Server-Side Request Processing Code for History Sniffing
(ACM, 2020)Cookies were originally introduced as a way to provide state awareness to websites, and are now one of the backbones of the current web. However, their use is not limited to store the login information or to save the current ... -
Tool Geometry Optimisation for LCO2 Assisted Milling of Ti6Al4V
(Elsevier, 2024)Titanium alloy Ti6Al4V is of great importance to the aeronautical and medical sectors due to its mechanical properties such as a high strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance. On the downside, machining Ti6Al4V ... -
Engineered design of cutting tool material, geometry, and coating for optimal performance and customized applications: A review
(Elsevier, 2024)Cutting tool materials are the backbone of machining and play a vital role in the manufacturing industry. Innovation in cutting tools is important for customized and demanding applications. This state-of-the-art review is ... -
Digital Robot Judge: Building a Task-centric Performance Database of Real-World Manipulation With Electronic Task Boards
(IEEE, 2024)Robotics aims to develop manipulation skills approaching human performance. However, skill complexity is often over- or underestimated based on individual experience, and the real-world performance gap is difficult or ... -
A unified formulation of geometry-aware discrete dynamic movement primitives
(Elsevier, 2024)Learning from demonstration (LfD) is considered as an efficient way to transfer skills from humans to robots. Traditionally, LfD has been used to transfer Cartesian and joint positions and forces from human demonstrations. ... -
Benchmarking of spectral methods for fatigue assessment of mooring systems and dynamic cables in offshore renewable energy technologies
(Elsevier, 2024)Fatigue life estimation methods based on time-domain and rainflow counting techniques are widely recognised and accepted for their reliability. However, applying them in scenarios involving random loads with multiple ... -
GenMorph: Automatically Generating Metamorphic Relations via Genetic Programming
(IEEE, 2024)Metamorphic testing is a popular approach that aims to alleviate the oracle problem in software testing. At the core of this approach are Metamorphic Relations (MRs), specifying properties that hold among multiple test ... -
Thermodiffusion, diffusion and Soret coefficients of binary polymeric mixtures in toluene and cyclohexane
(De Gruyter, 2024)We present the results of experimental study on measuring the thermodiffusion, molecular diffusion and Soret coefficients of polystyrene (4,880 g/mol) in the pure solvents toluene and cyclohexane at 298 K and atmospheric ... -
Gamifying Software Engineering Subject to Enhance the Quality of Knowledge
(Wiley, 2024)Gamification has been widely used in education in recent years. Gamification has been proven to be a useful tool for students, as it motivates them and helps them to learn. The lack of motivation on the part of the students ... -
A visual programming tool for mobile web augmentation
(Springer, 2024)The use of mobile devices for web browsing has increased extraordinarily in recent years, becoming the main source of information. Unfortunately, developers cannot meet the needs of all users. As a result, users have been ... -
Bending rigidity, sound propagation and ripples in flat graphene
(Springer Nature, 2024)Many of the applications of graphene rely on its uneven stiffness and high thermal conductivity, but the mechanical properties of graphene—and, in general, of all two-dimensional materials—are still not fully understood. ... -
