Modern manufacturing has to cope with dynamic and changing circumstances. Market fluctuations, the effects caused by unpredictable material shortages, highly variable product demand, and worker availability all require ...

Wind tunnel tests are carried out upon a NACA0021 airfoil subjected to transitional Reynolds numbers. Transitionally-operating airfoils show a high sensitivity to external conditions and pose relevant measurement issues ...

Vacuum induction melting is crucial in casting nickel-based superalloy components, ensuring excellent properties for aero-engine applications. Precise melting temperatures are vital for achieving optimal metallurgical ...

In transportation applications, filling high pressurised hydrogen tanks within a few minutes implies a fast and large temperature increase that can compromise the structural integrity of the storage system and the safety ...

Purpose: The theory of constraints (TOC) methodology and its drum-buffer-rope (DBR) production planning and control system are well suited to managing production plants in complex environments. The objective of this study ...

This paper presents a novel multicomponent alloy Al58Zn28Mg6Si8, with a density of 3.46 g/cm3, which incorporates concepts from high entropy alloys. The optimum alloy composition was determined using the CALPHAD approach ...

In recent years, mobile devices have witnessed an exceptional surge in web browsing, emerging as the primary information source. Developers, however, struggle to cater to every user’s needs, compelling users to customize ...

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) offers a global view over the network and the ability of centrally and dynamically managing network flows, making them ideal for creating security threat detection and mitigation solutions. ...

A novel multi-directional eddy current thermography (ECT) system is presented generating sets of directional phase images that have been fused with a processing pipeline allowing for an improved probability of detection ...

The present paper highlights the benefits of multiaxially reinforced profiles manufactured by out of die ultraviolet (UV) cured pultrusion. Thanks to the low pulling forces inherent to this technology, we could manufacture ...
