Fluidization of wet solids has been studied in a conical spouted bed with open-sided draft- tube and confinement system, being the design parameters the optimal obtained in a previous hydrodynamic study. This research is ...

Current factories dedicated to food products, and especially those that handle agricultural products, need a system to remove a great amount of unwanted elements (sand, roots, insects, etc.), as well as products in bad ...

This work exposes the main aspects considered during the development of the proposed methodology for the optimization of pieces by 3D printing. From the initial stage of software selection to the final results obtained by ...

In an increasingly and globalized sector as the new constructions naval one, the search of reductions in execution terms and production costs becomes essential. With this aim, the vessel project should be analyzed globally, ...

The basis of this process is to design a dental implant and different associated prosthetic components, with the principal objective of creating an innovative dental implant model which allows a better final integration ...

Safety is the most important aspect to consider in the design and construction stages of a nuclear power plant. Thus, the reactor vessel is probably the most important element for safety, since it houses the fuel and must ...

This study present the results from a survey aimed to identify current habits and practices towards the repair and second-hand purchase of small consumer electronics which are commonly used in households. To this end, a ...

The present article describes an energy system based on a heat pump that can manage the heat energy of the water pool, where the pool water and the house are used as thermal sources (cold source or hot source). The heat ...

Current hospital furniture market counts on numerous models of auxiliary tables, all of them oriented to cover a very specific need, overriding general hospital care. Furthermore, in the new “Internet of things” scenario, ...

There are many areas of engineering in which the dimensioning of mechanical components must be carried out in the face of dynamic demands that vary over time. These variable stresses generate fatigue phenomena in the ...
