Influence of the power supply on the energy efficiency of an alkaline water electrolyser
Electric energy consumption represents the greatest part of the cost of the hydrogen produced by water electrolysis. An effort is being carried out to reduce this electric consumption and improve the global efficiency ... -
Methodology for energy demand reduction of potato cold storage process
In order to maintain the quality of the potatoes over time, it is necessary to store them under certain storage conditions, which minimize losses both of quality and product, preferably without using chemical treatments. ... -
Environmental impact analysis of natural cork stopper manufacturing
For both wine makers and customers, natural cork stoppers are a symbol of quality. More-over, they are essential for maintaining the organoleptic properties of bottled wines throughout their lifespan. This research relied ... -
Influence of maintenance actions in the drying stage of a paper mill on CO2 emissions
Greenhouse gases from industrial activities have become a global problem. Emissions management is being developed to raise awareness of the importance of controlling pollution in general and atmospheric emissions in ... -
Characterization of two iron bullets from the royal ammunition factory of Eugi (Spain)
In this work, a comparative analysis of two iron bullets found in The Royal Ammunition Factory of Eugi in Navarra (Spain) was performed. Both bullets presented a spherical shape with a relatively good state of preservation, ... -
Influence of a commercial antithrombotic filter on the caval blood flow during neutra and valsalva maneuver
Anticoagulants are the treatment of choice for pulmonary embolism. When these fail or are contraindicated, vena cava filters are effective devices for preventing clots from the legs from migrating to the lung. Many ... -
Experimental bench for hemodynamic study of coronary artery with serial stenoses: fractional flow reserve assessment
The aim of this study was to develop an experimental hemodynamic bench to elucidate the influences of such geometrical parameters on the FFR assessment. As a first approach, the present work was focused on the influence ... -
On studying the interaction between different stent models and rabbit tracheal tissue: numerical, endoscopic and histological comparison
Stenting technique is employed worldwide for treating atherosclerotic vessel and tracheal stenosis. Both diseases can be treated by means of metallic stents which present advantages but are affected by the main problem of ... -
In vitro comparison of Günther Tulip and Celect filters. Testing filtering efficiency and pressure drop
In this study, the trapping ability of the Günther Tulip and Celect inferior vena cava filters was evaluated. Thrombus capture rates of the filters were tested in vitro in horizontal position with thrombus diameters of 3 ... -
A theoretical model of the endothelial cell morphology due to different waveforms
Endothelial cells are key units in the regulatory biological process of blood vessels. They represent an interface to transmit variations on the fluid dynamic changes. They are able to adapt its cytoskeleton, by means of ... -
Numerical and experimental study of the fluid flow through a medical device
The purpose of this paper is to verify a commercial software based fluid–structure interaction scheme for the inferior vena cava. Vena cava deep thrombosis (TVP) is a potentially deathly disease consequent to pulmonary ... -
Dynamic considerations of heel-strike impact in human gait
Based on the impulsive-dynamics formulation, this article presents the analysis of different strategies to regulate the energy dissipation at the heel-strike event in the context of human locomotion. For this purpose, a ... -
Influence of metallic die temperature in the solidification of Cu-10%Al-2%Fe alloy
The phases obtained in copper aluminium bronze alloy (Cu-Al10-Fe2) cast into a permanent die were investigated. The parameters examined were the pre-heating temperatures of the die and the graphite coating thickness. The ... -
Caracterización de escorias metalúrgicas procedentes de yacimientos arqueológicos de Navarra (siglos II a.C.- IV d.C.)
Desde la Sección de Arqueología del Gobierno de Navarra llegó la propuesta de caracterizar una serie de piezas comprendidas entre el siglo II a.C. y el siglo IV d.C. procedentes de yacimientos arqueológicos de esta provincia ... -
Estudio de una fundición nodular mediante mecánica de la fractura
Se estudia la tenacidad a la fractura de fundiciones de grafito nodular con diferentes matrices y tamaños de celdilla eutéctica. También se estudian las propiedades de tracción, dureza y tenacidad al impacto. Los ... -
Coupled biomechanical response of the cornea assessed by non-contact tonometry. A simulation study
The mechanical response of the cornea subjected to a non-contact air-jet tonometry diagnostic test represents an interplay between its geometry, the corneal material behavior and the loading. The objective is to study ... -
Relationship between microstructure and fracture types in a UNS S32205 duplex stainless steel
Duplex stainless steels are susceptible to the formation of sigma phase at high temperature which could potentially be responsible for catastrophic service failure of components. Thermal treatments were applied to duplex ... -
Computational simulation of scleral buckling surgery for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment: on the effect of the band size on the myopization
A finite element model (FE) of the eye including cornea, sclera, crystalline lens, and ciliary body was created to analyze the influence of the silicone encircling bandwidth and the tightness degree on the myopia induced ... -
Manufacturing of nanostructured rings from previously ECAE-processed AA5083 alloy by isothermal forging
The manufacturing of a functional hollow mechanical element or ring of the AA5083 alloy previously equal channel angular extrusion (ECAE) processed, which presents a submicrometric microstructure, is dealt with. For this ... -
Development of nanostructured AA3103 by equal channel angular pressing and thermal treatments
This work presents a study related to the achievement of a nanometric structure in AA3103, employing severe plastic deformation processes (SPD), in this case equal channel angular pressing (ECAP). The changes in the ...
