A population-specific material model for sagittal craniosynostosis to predict surgical shape outcomes
(Springer Nature, 2020)
Sagittal craniosynostosis consists of premature fusion (ossification) of the sagittal suture during infancy, resulting in head deformity and brain growth restriction. Spring-assisted cranioplasty (SAC) entails skull incisions ...
Multi-Physics Tool for Electrical Machine Sizing
(MDPI AG, 2020)
Society is turning to electrification to reduce air pollution, increasing electric machine demand. For industrial mass production, a detailed design of one machine is usually done first, then a design of similar machines, ...
Continuous improvement framework to develop cultural change: case study, capital goods company
(Emerald Publishing Limited, 2020)
In this study, a frame of reference was developed to adapt and execute a continuous improvement process (CIP) for reinforcing a continuous improvement (CI) culture in an organisation. The study was undertaken in a mature ...
Surface integrity of additive manufacturing parts: a comparison between optical topography measuring techniques
(Elsevier B.V., 2020)
Additive Manufacturing (AM) presents significant industry-specific advantages allowing the creation of complex geometries and internal features that cannot be produced using conventional manufacturing processes. However, ...
Modelling of an Additive 3D-Printing Process Based on Design of Experiments Methodology
(Technical University of Kosice, Slovakia, 2020)
Purpose: The implementation of additive manufacturing (AM) or 3D-printer manufacturing for technical prototyping, preproduction series and short production series can bring benefits in terms of reducing cost and time to ...
Review of Architectures Based on Partial Power Processing for DC-DC Applications
(IEEE, 2020)
This paper presents a review of advanced architectures based on the partial power processing concept, whose main objective is to achieve a reduction of the power processed by the converter. If the power processed by the ...
Recycling in Babel: The Impact of Foreign Languages in Rule Learning
(MDPI, 2020-05-27)
Environmental decisions and prosocial behaviors have been shown to be emotionally mediated, and language is at the core of emotions. The language context can alter the way decisions are made, and using a foreign language ...
On the Role of Contact and System Stiffness in the Measurement of Principal Variables in Fretting Wear Testing
(MDPI AG, 2020)
In this work, the role of the contact stiffness in the measurement of principal variables in fretting wear tests is assessed. Several fretting wear tribometers found in the literature, including one developed by the authors, ...
