Performance Improvement of a Silicon Partial Power Converter over a Silicon Carbide Full Power Converter
(IEEE, 2023)
This article studies the new benefits that partial power processing brings to Silicon (Si) devices compared to wide-bandgap technologies. To prove this, the proposed case study consists of an on-board charger (OBC) application ...
Second-order Filter-based Inertia Emulation (SOFIE) for Low Inertia Power Systems
(IEEE, 2024)
The massive integration of power electronic converters into the power grid has led to a decrease in the mechanical inertia of power systems, causing an increase in the rate of change of frequency (RoCoF) that may lead to ...
Measurement Based Stochastic Channel Model for 60 GHz Mmwave Industrial Communications
(IEEE, 2023)
Communications in the mmWave spectrum are gaining relevance in the last years as they are a promising candidate to cope with the increasing demand of throughput and latency in different use cases. Nowadays, several efforts ...
Hole quality improvement in CFRP/Ti6Al4V stacks using optimised flow rates for LCO2 and MQL sustainable cooling/lubrication
(Elsevier, 2024)
Carbon fibre reinforced polymer/titanium stacks (CFRP/Ti6Al4V) are employed in aeronautics due to their excellent weight-to-strength ratio and corrosion properties. However, these same material properties present challenges ...
An analytical model of through-thickness photopolymerisation of composites: Ultraviolet light transmission and curing kinetics
(Elsevier, 2020)
In this paper, a kinetic model able to predict the evolution of the through-thickness degree of cure of ultraviolet (UV) cured composites has been developed and validated. The kinetic model, which is based on the autocatalytic ...
Development of a novel method to characterize mean surface peak curvature as a signature of tribological performance of dental implant surfaces
(IOP Publishing, 2020)
The integrity of dental implant surfaces might be compromised during surgical insertion. Wear and topographical modifications can occur during implant insertion, which can potentially have clinical implications. Accordingly, ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
