3D numerical investigation of poultry farms pollutant emissions over complex terrains
(2015)Wind mapping is of utmost importance in various environmental engineering applications concerning pollution dispersion. The available wind atlases usually provide wind data with low spatial resolution relative to pollution ... -
Analysis of the dynamic air conditioning loads, fuel consumption and emissions of heavy-duty trucks with different glazing and paint optical properties
(2022)The European transportation sector employs 10 million people and accounts for 4.6% of the European Union GDP. Due to climate change, this workforce is increasingly affected by high temperatures and radiant loads, particularly ... -
Bending response of lap welded steel pipeline joints
(2020)The paper presents a combined experimental and numerical investigation of the bending response of lap welded joints in pressurized steel water pipelines. It is motivated by the structural performance of large-diameter steel ... -
Dented externally-pressurised pipes subjected to cyclic axial loading
(2019)The present paper describes a numerical investigation of the mechanical response of externally-pressurized dented stainless-steel pipes, subjected to reverse cyclic axial loading. This is the first part of a large-scale ... -
Experimental and numerical investigation of the bending capacity of spiral-welded steel tubes
(2016)To investigate the structural behaviour of large-diameter spiral-welded steel tubes under bending, a full scale experimental program has been performed, consisting of thirteen 42-inch diameter, spiral-welded steel tubes ... -
Heating and cooling induced stresses and displacements in heat exchanger piles in sand
(2020)Heating and cooling of heat exchanger piles causes changes in the axial stresses in the pile and vertical pile displacements. Changes in axial stress (thermal stresses) are more significant in the case of fixed head piles, ... -
Numerical investigation of heavy fuel oil droplet breakup enhancement with water emulsions
(2020)The heating and explosive boiling leading to fragmentation of immiscible heavy fuel oil-water droplets, termed as W/HFO emulsions, is predicted numerically by solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes and energy equations ... -
Numerical investigation of old RC frames strengthened against earthquakes by high dissipation steel link elements
(2010)The use of dissipative steel link elements for the seismic strengthening of existing reinforced concrete (R/C) frames, which have been designed according to older regulations, can provide additional strength and stiffness ... -
Numerical investigation of the contribution of metallic dowels to the stability of multi-drum columns
(2022)Remnants of Greek Temples are found all over the Mediterranean, surviving in most cases in the form of free-standing columns. In many cases the drums are placed on top of each other without any connection, whereas in some ... -
Numerical Investigation of Wind Driven Circulation and Horizontal Dispersion in the Surface Layer of a Re-flooded Shallow Lake
(2016)The re-flooded lakes with unique natural and cultural values that are under threat from anthropogenic pressure, consist a very important section of fresh water resources management in the Mediterranean. Lake Karla, positioned ... -
Seismic analysis and design of industrial pressure vessels
(2011)The present paper focuses on the seismic analysis and design of horizontal-cylindrical and vertical-cylindrical pressure vessels. First, a comparison of the seismic provisions in ASME B&PV code and in EN 13445-3 is conducted ... -
Viscoelastic dynamic arterial response
(2017)Background Arteries undergo large deformations under applied intraluminal pressure and may exhibit small hysteresis due to creep or relaxation process. The mechanical response of arteries depends, among others, on their ...
