Reliability index based strategy for the probability-damage approach in fail-safe design optimization (β-PDFSO)
(Springer Nature, 2023)[Abstract:] This research proposes a new formulation for fail-safe size optimization, considering the probability of occurrence of each failure scenario and the random structural parameters as sources of uncertainty. ... -
Semi-automated setup of CFD simulations of rectangular cylinders and streamlined box decks
(WIT Press, 2020)[Abstract:] A piece of software that acts as a Graphical User Interface (GUI) for the setup of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models that are solved by means of the open source code OpenFOAM, is presented. The software ... -
Shape optimization of tall buildings cross-section: Balancing profit and aeroelastic performance
(Wiley, 2022)[Abstract:] Shape optimization is an effective tool to improve the aerodynamic performance of tall buildings by introducing minor modifications to the original project. Nevertheless, economic criteria demand efficient cross ... -
Size and shape optimization of aluminum tubes with GFRP honeycomb reinforcements for crashworthy aircraft structures
(Elsevier, 2015)[Abstract:] Crashworthiness optimization of aircraft and automotive structures has become one the main research targets for their respective leading industries. The following research proposes a new design of an aircraft’s ... -
Square Cylinder Under Different Turbulent Intensity Conditions by Means of Small-Scale Turbulence
(WIT Press, 2021)[Abstract] The phenomenon of turbulence is present in almost every type of flow in practical applications. Depending on its level of intensity and length scale, it can modify both the aerodynamic and aeroelastic performance ... -
Study of a static and vertically free-to-oscillate 4:1 rectangular cylinder by means of 2D URANS simulations
(WIT Press, 2018)[Abstract:] Flexible structures, such as cable-supported bridges, are prone to suffer from vortex-induced vibrations (VIV) under wind flow, as their span lengths are steadily growing in the last decades. VIV is a phenomenon ... -
Testing and simulation of additively manufactured AlSi10Mg components under quasi-static loading
(Elsevier, 2020)[Abstract:] An experimental and numerical study on the quasi-static loading of AlSi10Mg square boxes produced by selective laser melting (SLM) was carried out. The goal was to evaluate the applicability of common finite ... -
Verification Approaches for the 3D Static LES Simulations of the Stonecutters Bridge Deck
(WIT Press, 2021)[Abstract] In computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, verification is the process of identifying both the spatial and the temporal discretisations providing relatively insensitive model results. The underlying goal ... -
Wave Celerity in Hydraulic Transients Computation for CIPP-Rehabilitated Pipes
(WIT Press, 2020)[Abstract] Most of the water pipe infrastructure is outdated; therefore, frequent maintenance and repair works are required. To speed up the rehabilitation work and to have a more sustainable and efficient approach, ... -
Wind tunnel study on the effect of the gap width in the aerodynamic and aeroelastic responses of twin-box decks
(WIT Press, 2018)[Abstract:] Twin-box decks have recently been introduced in long-span bridges because this type of slotted cross-section provides flutter critical wind speeds higher than mono-box streamlined decks for flexible structures. ...
