Process for refining copper in solid state
(Elsevier Science Ltd, 1999)
A process for removing impurities from copper concentrate prior to smelting is presented here. The concentrate is subjected to thermal decomposition in a vacuum chamber at temperatures of about 950 °C. This pretreatment ...
Demo: A prototype for a platoon-based cyclist cooperative system
(IEEE, 2017)
Innovative solutions for smart transportation involve the integration of communication technologies, mobile applications, control mechanisms, and human-to-machine interfaces. In this demo we present the prototype of a ...
Uncertainty quantification and propagation in the modeling of liquefiable sands
(Elsevier Ltd, 2019)
This paper combines data from laboratory, centrifuge testing, and numerical tools to highlight the predictive capabilities of the Bayesian method for uncertainty quantification and propagation. The Bayesian approach is ...
Predicting effects of ecosystem engineering on species richness along primary productivity gradients
(ELSEVIER, 2010)
Physical ecosystem engineering is the process by which some species change the distribution of materials
and energy in ecosystems. Although several studies have shown that this process is a driver of local
species ...
Adjustment of discrete load changes in feeder databases for improving medium-term demand forecasting
(Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2017)
A discrete load change (DLC) event may be described as an abrupt change in feeder demand. These events are due to network reconfigurations, or the connection/disconnection of large consumers to the grid. This phenomenon ...
Guidelines for the characterization of the internal impedance of lithium-ion batteries in PHM algorithms
(Prognostics and Health Management Society, 2018)
This article aims to describe the most important aspects to consider when using the concept of internal impedance in algorithms that focus on characterizing the degradation of lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries. The first part ...
Energy optimal control of thermal comfort in trams
(Elsevier Ltd, 2018)
This paper presents a method for thermal comfort control for trams which achieves the desired thermal comfort and minimises the power consumption of heating,ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC). Mathematical models of ...
