Revising Concepts on Liquid–Liquid Extraction: Data Treatment and Data Reliability
(ACS Publications, 2022)
[Abstract] The intention of this article is to clarify some concepts and relevant aspects of the experimental determination and treatment of liquid–liquid equilibrium data for ternary systems. Distinction is made between ...
Proposed Conceptual Framework to Design Artificial Reefs Based on Particular Ecosystem Ecology Traits
(MDPI, 2022-04-28)
[Abstract] Overfishing and pollution have led to marine habitat degradation, and as a result, marine fisheries are now in decline. Consequently, there is a real need to enhance marine ecosystems while halting the decline ...
Numerical and experimental analysis of the velocity field inside an artificial reef. Application to the Ares-Betanzos estuary
(MDPI, 2022-11-28)
[Abstract]: The placement of artificial reef (AR) units on the seabed modifies the velocity field of the water, making the nutrients circulate properly and creating the necessary habitat for the settlement of the desired ...
Optimization of a nature-inspired shape for a vertical axis wind turbine through a numerical model and an artificial neural network
(MDPI, 2022-08-11)
[Abstract] The present work proposes an artificial neural network (ANN) to analyze vertical axis wind turbines of the Savonius type. These turbines are appropriate for low wind velocities due to their low starting torque. ...
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, ...
A New Theoretical Dynamic Analysis of Ship Rolling Motion Considering Navigational Parameters, Loading Conditions and Sea State Conditions
(MDPI, 2022)
[Abstract] Despite the IMO’s efforts and the large quantity of research carried out over the years concerning the sudden loss of stability in fishing vessels, and even the damage done to merchant fleets due to cargo shifting, ...
Possibilities of Ammonia as Both Fuel and NOᵪ Reductant in Marine Engines: A Numerical Study
(MDPI, 2022-01)
[Abstract] Nowadays, the environmental impact of shipping constitutes an important challenge. In order to achieve climate neutrality as soon as possible, an important priority consists of progressing on the decarbonization ...
Analysis of the Pre-Injection System of a Marine Diesel Engine Through Multiple-Criteria Decision-Making and Artificial Neural Networks
(Mathematical Institute, Slovak Academy of Sciences, 2022-01-01)
[Abstract] The present work proposes several pre-injection patterns to reduce nitrogen oxides in the Wärtsilä 6L 46 marine engine. A numerical model was carried out to characterise the emissions and consumption of the ...
Opening or Not Opening Educational Centers in Time of SARS-CoV-2? Analysis of the Situation in Galicia (Spain)
(MDPI, 2022-05-05)
[Abstract] The appearance of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic on the world stage has implemented changes in all social activities and, therefore, in teaching at all educational levels. On the one hand, it is argued that the closure ...
