Most semi-circular bend (SCB) tests on concrete have been conducted with a pre-crack with a straight-through tip, thereby undermining the determination of the tensile fracture toughness (KIc). Therefore, the present study involved mixed-mode (tensile?she...

The current paper aims at assessing the effect of the radial mesh on the description of the axial velocity in steady-state and transient conditions and at presenting the results of a new optimized equal-area mesh. For this purpose, a quasi-2D model is im...

In this study, we have employed a film deposition technique based on convective forces acting at the triple air?solution?substrate contact line to tune the rate of solvent evaporation and, thus, to exert control over the morphology of the resulting mixed...

The increased demands of compact modern aero engine architectures have highlighted the problem of outlet guide vane (OGV) buffeting in off-design conditions. This structural response to aerodynamic excitations is characterised by increased vibration, ris...

Risk can be defined as the relationship between the likelihood of a hazard causing a potential disaster and its consequences. This study aims to assess the likelihood that a new industrial region, located in the state of São Paulo (Brazil), will be flood...

Timely generation of accurate and reliable forecasts of flash flood events is of paramount importance for flood early warning systems in urban areas. Although physically based models are able to provide realistic reproductions of fast-developing inundati...

Air pollution is probably the single largest environment risk to health and urban streets are the localized, relevant hotspots. Numerous studies reviewed the state-of-the-art models, proposed best-practice guidelines and explored, using various software,...

Urban flood modelling has been evolving in recent years, due to computational facilities as well as to the possibility of obtaining detailed terrain data. Flood control techniques have also been evolving to integrate both urban flood and urban planning i...
