Ultrafast Laser Surface Texturing: A Sustainable Tool to Modify Wettability Properties of Marble
(MDPI, 2019-07-28)
[Abstract] Conservation strategies to reduce the degradation of stone caused by the action of water are focusing on increasing the hydrophobicity of the surface by imitating existing solutions in nature (lotus leafs and ...
Mechanical stiffness prediction of beam-to-column stiffened angle joints
(Elsevier, 2019-11-28)
[Abstract]: Semi-rigid angle joints, in their different configurations, constitute a highly interesting alternative to other typologies like end plate joints. However, they are not widely used in the customary practice of ...
Metamodelling of stiffness matrices for 2D welded asymmetric steel joints
(Elsevier, 2019-08-02)
[Abstract]: Beam-column steel joints usually have a semi-rigid behaviour, and this must be taken into account when carrying out a global analysis of the structure. Rotational springs at each side of the joint are commonly ...
Influence of the weathering rate on the response of granite to nanosecond UV laser irradiation
(Elsevier, 2019-12-13)
[Abstract]: Laser ablation is an accepted cleaning technology for cultural heritage stonework. Optimized laser ablation may,however, have different side effects depending on the mineralogical composition of the stone. In ...
Laser versus scalpel cleaning of crustose lichens on granite
(Elsevier, 2018-02-28)
[Abstract]: This paper addresses the evaluation of the cleaning of crustose lichens developing on granite. The evaluation was performed considering the effectiveness of the cleanings and harmfulness exerted on the granite. ...
A computer vision system for identification of granite-forming minerals based on RGB data and artificial neural networks
(Elsevier, 2017-12-19)
[Abstract]: Granitic stones are widely used in the field of Cultural Heritage in the north-western Iberian Peninsula. In some activities regarding conservation, such as the laser cleaning, it is of great interest the ...
Influence of the commercial finishes of ornamental granites on roughness, colour and reflectance
(Elsevier, 2018-09)
[Abstract] The effects of the four common commercial finishes (polished, honed, disc cutting and bush hammering) on several properties of ornamental granites were evaluated. Two granites of different texture, widely used ...
