Abstract

The aim of this paper is to partially solve the problem of visualization of clusters of particles resulting from numerical methods in engineering. Two methods for removing non-visible particles from some view point of the camera were developed. These are divided depending on the [...]

Abstract

The present study compares three different solutions for the direct problem of Electrical Impedance Tomography using the finite difference method. In this technique, electrodes are positioned on the boundary of a volume to be studied, and in two of them current patterns are injected [...]

Abstract

This degree thesis deals with the estimation of towing tank resistance of fishing vessel with round bilge. First, a state of art of fishing vessel is presented. Second, the usual statistical methods to predict the towing tank resistance of fishing vessel are analyzed. Third, a [...]

Abstract

The behavior of structures subjected to earthquakes demonstrates that the phenomena of soil-structure and fluid-structure interaction have a great influence on the structural response, especially in the case of structures such as dams, tanks, elevated [...]

Abstract

The paper presents an overview on the computational tools developed in CIMNE for the analysis of the behavior of rockfill dams in overtopping scenarios, as well as for the design of protections systems against overtopping. In this latter case two different applications are presented: [...]

Abstract

A general constitutive model adequate for analysis of the thermomechanical response of composite materials is presented. The model is based on the mixture of the basic substances of the [...]

Abstract

The need for remeshing when computing flow problems in domains suffering large deformations has motivated the implementation of a tool that allows the proper transmission of information [...]

Abstract

This work is a brief report about the problem of life -or, durability study- of structural materials, undergoing mechanical, thermal and chemical actions. This document is approached from [...]

Abstract

STEM education is a strategy based on four disciplines (science, technology, engineering and mathematics), integrated in an innovative interdisciplinary approach. Although, the concept of STEM education is more relevant today, the discussion of a teaching model with special attention [...]

Abstract

Numerical methods are largely used to solve problems and complex natural physical phenomena that do not have an analytical solution. Its approach to approximation enables the resolution of technical and scientific problems with great fidelity of results. The Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics [...]
