Dynamic calculation of breakwater crown walls under wave action: influence of soil mechanics and shape of the loading state
(MDPI, 2019)
[Abstract:] As a consequence of the action of waves on rubble mound breakwaters, there are loads—both on the vertical and horizontal sides of the crown walls—which modify the conditions of their stability. These loads ...
Comparison of three different numerical implementations to model rainfall-runoff transformation on roofs
(Wiley, 2022)
[Abstract:] Roofs represent a high percentage of the impervious surfaces in urban areas, and hence their implementation in urban drainage models is essential for accurate results to be achieved. Current modelling approaches ...
Análisis integral del lavado y arrastre de sólidos en suspensión en cuencas urbanas utilizando un simulador de lluvia a escala real
(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2022)
[Resumen:] Ante la falta de datos experimentales precisos para el desarrollo y validación de modelos de lavado y transporte de sedimentos
en la superficie de cuencas urbanas, en este estudio se presenta una serie de ensayos ...
Diseño de pavimentos permeables en España: situación actual y necesidades futuras
(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2022)
[Resumen:] Los sistemas de pavimento permeable son una de las técnicas de drenaje urbano sostenible mejor consideradas para la gestión sostenible de las aguas pluviales. El presente trabajo tiene como objetivos ...
Hydraulic, Wash-off and Sediment Transport Experiments in a Full-Scale Urban Drainage Physical Model
(Nature, 2020)
[Abstract] This paper presents a dataset obtained from hydraulic and sediment transport experiments performed in a full-scale urban drainage physical model of 36 m2. The study seeks to accurately measure sediment mobilization ...
Analysis of Particulate Matter Concentration Intercepted by Trees of a Latin-American Megacity
(MDPI, 2021)
[Abstract] Urban areas with trees provide several ecosystem services to citizens. There is a growing interest in ecosystem services for the removal of air pollutants such as particulate matter. The objective of this paper ...
Assessing Different Imaging Velocimetry Techniques to Measure Shallow Runoff Velocities During Rain Events Using an Urban Drainage Physical Model
(Copernicus GmbH, 2021)
[Abstract] Although surface velocities are key in the calibration of physically based urban drainage models, the shallow water depths developed during non-extreme precipitation and the potential risks during flood events ...
Field measurements of angular motions of a vessel at berth: Inertial device application
(Romanian Soc Control Tech Informatics, 2018)
[Abstract]: The study and characterization of the oscillations of a moored vessel has a major importance in port operational efficiency, not only in the design of mooring and anchoring systems, but also in order to prevent ...
Stratification Strength and Light Climate Explain Variation in Chlorophyll 𝑎 at the Continental Scale in a European Multilake Survey in a Heatwave Summer
(Association for the Sciences of Limnology and Oceanography, 2021-10-30)
[Abstract] To determine the drivers of phytoplankton biomass, we collected standardized morphometric, physical, and biological data in 230 lakes across the Mediterranean, Continental, and Boreal climatic zones of the ...
Anisotropic deformability and strength of slate from NW-Spain
(Elsevier, 2021)
[Abstract:] Slates are metamorphic rocks characterized by the pervasive occurrence of cleavage or foliation producing a highly anisotropic mechanical behavior characterized by fissility. Deformability and strength of these ...
