The use of particulate filters (DPF) in Diesel engines has become in recent years the standard technology for the control of soot aerosol emissions. Once emissions reduction through the management of filtration and ...
An on-engine method for dynamic characterisation of automotive NOx concentration sensors is presented. Steps in start of injection on a diesel engine are employed to achieve step-like NOx concentration variations on exhaust ...
FE models of both the single-layer Kiewitt-8 reticulated domes with a span of 60m and the
cylindrical impactor were developed incorporating ANSYS/LS-DYNA. Afterward,
fourteen groups impact are simulated by changing the ...

[EN] The present paper is a result of a collaboration in IASS WG 8 for metal spatial structures to prepare state-ofthe-art reviews for earthquake response analysis methods and equivalent static seismic loads for metal ...
[EN] Moderate magnitude seismic events have occurred during the last decade in non-seismic areas and have highlighted that many existing buildings do not sufficiently resist these types of events. The objective of this ...
