Modelling the Non-linear fibre and matrix dominated compressive behaviour in unidirectional Fibre-reinforced composites
(Elsevier, 2023)
The mechanical behaviour of unidirectional fibre-reinforced composites is typically assumed to be linear elastic before failure. However, these materials exhibit nonlinear responses while being loaded in the matrix and ...
A microservice-based framework for multi-level testing of ciber-physical systems
(Springer, 2023)
In the last years, the use of microservice architectures is spreading in Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs) and Internet of Things (IoT) domains. CPSs are systems that integrate digital cyber computations with physical processes. ...
Effects of Different Si Content and Thermal Stories on the Secondary Phase Formation, Hot Ductility, and Stress Rupture Properties of Alloy 718 Investment Castings
(Springer, 2023)
Herein, the effects of microstructure on high-temperature properties (hot ductility and stress rupture life) were investigated in alloy 718 investment castings manufactured with different Si contents (0.051, 0.11, and 0.17 ...
Retinal thickness as a biomarker of cognitive impairment in manifest Huntington’s disease
(Springer Nature, 2023)
Background Cognitive decline has been reported in premanifest and manifest Huntington’s disease but reliable biomarkers are lacking. Inner retinal layer thickness seems to be a good biomarker of cognition in other ...
A direct method to quantify lithium plating on graphite negative electrode of commercial Li-ion cells
(Elsevier B.V., 2023)
The deposition of metallic lithium is a degradation mechanism, also known as lithium plating, that might occur at the negative electrode surface of Li-ion battery cell, especially during fast charging, low temperature ...
An Experimental Protocol for Human Stress Investigation in Manufacturing Contexts: Its Application in the NO-STRESS Project
(MDPI, 2023)
Stress is a critical concern in manufacturing environments, as it impacts the well-being and performance of workers. Accurate measurement of stress is essential for effective intervention and mitigation strategies. This ...
Low-Cost Maximum Power Point Tracking Strategy and Protection Circuit Applied to an Ayanz Wind Turbine with Screw Blades
(MDPI, 2023)
This paper provides three different research contributions applied to a Wind Turbine patented in 1606 by the inventor Jerónimo de Ayanz y Beaumont. The windmill under study is the Ayanz Wind Turbine with screw blades. The ...
High Efficiency Converters Based on Modular Partial Power Processing for Fully Electric Maritime Applications
(MDPI, 2023)
This paper proposes an approach for analyzing the benefits that partial-power-processing-based converters can bring to fully electric maritime applications. With the aim of making the system modular and scalable to different ...
Development of a new set of Heuristics for the evaluation of Human-Robot Interaction in industrial settings: Heuristics Robots Experience (HEUROBOX)
(Frontiers, 2023)
Humans and robots will increasingly have to work together in the new industrial context. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the User Experience, Technology Acceptance, and overall wellbeing to achieve a smoother and ...
Impact of turbulence and blade surface degradation on the annual energy production of small-scale wind turbines
(Wiley, 2023)
Small-scale horizontal axis wind-turbines (SHAWTs) are acquiring relevance withinthe regulatory policies of the wind sector aiming at net-zero emissions, while reduc-ing visual and environmental impact by means of distributed ...
