3D LES simulations of a static and vertically free-to-oscillate 4:1 rectangular cylinder: effects of the grid resolution
(Elsevier, 2019)[Abstract:] In the present study, the aerodynamics of the flow fields around a static and vertically free-to-oscillate 4:1 rectangular cylinder are analysed by means of 3D LES simulations, adopting the OneEqEddy viscosity ... -
A comparison of missing value imputation methods applied to daily precipitation in a semi-arid and a humid region of Mexico
(Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, 2023)[Abstract:] Climatological data with unreliable or missing values is an important area of research, and multiple methods are available to fill in missing data and evaluate data quality. Our study aims to compare the ... -
A Computational Study on the Aerodynamics of a Twin-Box Bridge With a Focus on the Spanwise Features
(Elsevier, 2021)[Abstract] The wind flow around twin-box decks is particularly complex due to the very important role played by the slot distance between girders and the presence of the downwind box that is immersed in the wake of the ... -
A continuous simulation approach for the estimation of extreme flood inundation in coastal river reaches affected by meso- and macrotides
(Springer, 2018)[Abstract:] Considering the joint probability of occurrence of high sea levels and river discharges, as well as the interactions between these sources of flooding, is of major importance to produce realistic inundation ... -
A decision-making tool for port operations based on downtime risk and met-ocean conditions including infragravity wave forecast
(MDPI, 2023)[Abstract:] Port downtime leads to economic losses and reductions in safety levels. This problem is generally assessed in terms of uni-variable thresholds, despite its multidimensional nature. The aim of the present study ... -
A Hybrid Neural Network-Based Technique to Improve the Flow Forecasting of Physical and Data-Driven Models: Methodology and Case Studies in Andean Watersheds
(Elsevier, 2020)[Abstract] Study region The present study was conducted in the Machángara Alto and Chulco rivers, which belong to the Paute basin in the provinces of Azuay and Cañar in southern Ecuador. Study focus Andean watersheds ... -
A New Big Data Approach to Understanding General Traffic Impacts on Bus Passenger Delays
(Hindawi, 2023)[Abstract:] This paper presents a new method to quantify the potential user time savings if the urban bus is given preferential treatment, changing from mixed traffic to an exclusive bus lane, using a big data approach. ... -
A proposed methodology for the global study of the mechanical properties of cold asphalt mixtures
(Elsevier, 2014)[Abstract:] Despite having been used for decades, the structural performance of emulsion-treated materials has still not been investigated as intensely as in the case of hot-mix asphalt (HMA). Proof of this is the lack of ... -
A proposed new approach to light rail safety management in Spain and other countries
(Elsevier, 2019)[Abstract:] The light rail transit (LRT) has experienced considerable growth in Spain since 1994; to date, this has led to the installation of more than 200 km of light rail lines and LRT operations in 11 metropolitan ... -
A rapid flood inundation model for hazard mapping based on least squares support vector machine regression
(Wiley, 2019)[Abstract:] Two-dimensional shallow water models are widely used tools for flood inundation mapping. However, even if High Performance Computing techniques have greatly decreased the computational time needed to run a 2D ... -
A Risk-Based Approach for the Analysis of Flood Impact in Villahermosa (Tabasco, Mexico)
(MDPI, 2023)[Abstract:] Floods in Villahermosa are events that have occurred frequently over the centuries, due to the city’s location at the mouth of two of the most powerful rivers in Mexico. Flooding effects on residents have become ... -
A robust method to update local river inundation maps using global climate model output and weather typing based statistical downscaling
(Springer, 2020)[Abstract:] Global warming is changing the magnitude and frequency of extreme precipitation events. This requires updating local rainfall intensity-duration-frequency (IDF) curves and flood hazard maps according to the ... -
A simple algorithm for the estimation of road traffic space mean speeds from data available to most management centres
(Elsevier, 2015)[Abstract:] The control of the evolution of road traffic streams is highly related to productivity, safety, sustainability and, even, comfort. Although, nowadays, the findings from research efforts and the development of ... -
A simplified CFD approach for bluff-body aerodynamics under small scale free stream turbulent flow
(Elsevier, 2023)[Abstract:] The study of free stream turbulence (FST) effects on bluff bodies by means of computational approaches has been addressed so far mainly applying scale resolving methods adopting a three-dimensional domain, which ... -
A stress–temperature superposition approach to study the nonlinear resilient behavior of cold recycled mixtures (CRM) with active filler addition
(Elsevier, 2023)[Abstract:] The asphalt paving sector is currently embracing and enhancing cold mixture technologies to reduce carbon emissions and decarbonize its operations. Cold recycled mixtures (CRM) have proven to be a promising ... -

Adhesion Analysis of Waste Cork Dust as Filler for Bituminous Mixtures
(Taylor & Francis, 2020)[Abstract] Suberin is a biopolymer that can be found in high amounts in natural cork. As is well known, polymers can be used as bitumen modifiers to improve the properties of bituminous mixtures. This paper describes ... -
Adhesion of recycled concrete aggregates, demolition debris and asphalt
(Taylor & Francis, 2014)[Abstract:] In this investigation, rolling bottle tests and boiling water tests were conducted to evaluate the effect of different fillers and treatments on the adhesion between recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) and ...
