Role of Cargo Weight and Volume: Minimizing Costs and CO2 Emissions in Container Transport
(Springer International Publishing Ag, Cham, 2016)
Experimental-Numerical Study of Tensile Strength of the High-Strength Steel S690QL at Elevated Temperatures
(Springer, New York, 2016)
We present the experimental-numerical analysis of the influence of temperature on mechanical properties of structural high-strength steel class S690QL. Since the steel S690QL belongs to a group of steels with good mechanical ...
Experimental investigations of flow distribution in coolant system of Helium-Cooled-Pebble-Bed Test Blanket Module
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2016)
This paper deals with investigations of flow distribution in the coolant system of the Helium-Cooled Pebble -Bed Test Blanket Module (HCPB TBM) for ITER. The investigations have been performed by manufacturing and testing ...
Second-Order Adjoint Sensitivity and Uncertainty Analysis of a Heat Transport Benchmark Problem-II: Computational Results Using G4M Reactor Thermal-Hydraulic Parameters
(Amer Nuclear Soc, La Grange Pk, 2016)
This work presents numerical results for the second-order sensitivities of the temperature distributions in a paradigm benchmark problem modeling heat transport in a reactor fuel rod and the surrounding coolant channel. ...
Local deformation fields and marginal integrity of sculptable bulk-fill, low-shrinkage and conventional composites
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
Objective. To compare strain and displacement of sculptable bulk-fill, low-shrinkage and conventional composites as well as dye penetration along the dentin-restoration interface. Methods. Modified Class II cavities (N= ...
Automated identification of land cover type using multispectral satellite images
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2016)
Detection of specific terrain features and vegetation, referenced as a landscape classification, is an important component in the management and planning of natural resources. The different land types, man-made materials ...
Experimental studies on active vibration control of smart plate using a modified PID controller with optimal orientation of piezoelectric actuator

Numerical simulation of latent heat storage with conductance enhancing fins
(Bulgarian Acad Science, Sofia, 2016)
Precise understanding of heat transfer processes inside the latent thermal energy storage exposed to different initial and boundary conditions is crucial for development of optimized design and operating features of similar ...
Thermal-hydraulics of helium cooled First Wall channels and scoping investigations on performance improvement by application of ribs and mixing devices
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2016)
The first wall (FW) of DEMO is a component with high thermal loads. The cooling of the FW has to comply with the material's upper and lower temperature limits and requirements from stress assessment, like low temperature ...
Assessment of energy and environmental performance of office building models: A case study
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2016)
The purpose of this paper is to present a case of an office building and show how different concepts of envelope construction affect the energy efficiency of building. Assessment of energy performances of different scenarios ...
