Evaluation of Hardness, Sliding Wear and Strength of a Hypoeutectic White Iron with 25%Cr after Heat Treatments
(MDPI, 2021-06)
[Abstract] Hypoeutectic white cast irons with a high chrome content are commonly used in the industrial mining sector where there is a demand for both high resistance to adhesive wear and an acceptable toughness for the ...
How Important Are Ports for the Offshore Wind Industry?: The Case of Spain
(European Association for the Development of Renewable Energies, Environment and Power Quality (EA4EPQ), 2021-09)
[Abstract] Offshore wind is becoming a new technology to develop a better sustainable world. Its progress is linked to the use of port facilities, where the offshore wind farms can be stored or pre-installed. The aim of ...
Application of residuals from purification of bivalve molluscs in Galician to facilitate marine ecosystem resiliency through artificial reefs with shells – One generation
(Elsevier, 2023-01-15)
[Abstract] The seas and oceans of the planet provide a wide range of essential resources. However, marine ecosystems are undergoing severe degradation due to the unsustainable exploitation and consumption patterns of the ...
Characterisation of electrical power systems based on electrical curves and their properties
(European Association for the Development of Renewable Energy, Environment and Power Quality (EA4EPQ), 2023-07)
[Abstract]: Due to the proliferation of renewable energy systems, the study of voltage and frequency stability is a crucial aspect. Recently, this problem has been approached from a purely geometrical point of view with ...
The technical and economic feasibility of the CENTEC floating offshore wind platform
(MDPI, 2022-09-21)
[Abstract]: This paper defines a methodology for the economic feasibility analysis of a floating offshore wind farm composed of tensioned leg platforms, which are part of the EU ARCWIND research project. In this context, ...
The Wear Responses of the Welded Joints of ASTM A335 Gr. P11 Steels Affected by Accelerated Flow Corrosion
(MDPI, 2019)
[Abstract] This study shows the efects of wear on welded joints of ASTM A355 Gr. P11 “Seamless Ferritic Alloy-Steel Pipe for High Temperature Service” steels subjected to the welding procedures established by codes B31.1 ...
Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Energy Consumption of Coastal Ecosystem Enhancement Programme through Sustainable Artificial Reefs in Galicia
(MDPI, 2021)
[Abstract] The principle of sustainability should condition a project in which artificial reefs are being installed to protect biodiversity as well as enhance costal ecosystems. In particular, this principle should be taken ...
Analysis of the Real Energy Consumption of Energy Saving Lamps
(MDPI, 2020)
[Abstract] Light emitting diode (LED) and compact fluorescent light (CFL) lamps are widely used because they are associated with low energy consumption and a reduced environmental impact. In the present paper, a study of ...
Assessment of the Materials Employed in Green Artificial Reefs for the Galician Estuaries in Terms of Circular Economy
(MDPI, 2020)
[Abstract] To exploit marine resources in a sustainable way, efficient management systems must be used such as green artificial reefs (GARs). These reefs are mostly made up of renewable and organic materials. When adopting ...
Economic Feasibility of Floating Offshore Wind Farms Considering Near Future Wind Resources: Case Study of Iberian Coast and Bay of Biscay
(MDPI, 2021-03)
[Abstract] Wind energy resources are subject to changes in climate, so the use of wind energy density projections in the near future is essential to determine the viability and profitability of wind farms at particular ...
