Directions of high cycle fatigue cracks emanating from circular notches studied by optical profilometry
(Elsevier, 2022)Current models for predicting the fatigue endurance of notched solids use the stresses along a straight line, beginning at the notch root, as a simplification of the real crack propagation path. In this work, the experimental ... -
Comparative Analysis of Water Extraction Mechanism in Roman Mines

; Rodríguez Pérez, Ángel Mariano; Hernández Torres, José Antonio; Caparrós Mancera, Julio José; Dávila Martín, José Miguel; Castilla Gutiérrez, Javier (Springer, 2022)
The removal of water from mines was one of the key issues that former miners had to deal with. Roman colonists brought new technology to the Iberian Peninsula that addressed this problem. However, they did not invent ... -
Corrosion of Carbon Steel in Extreme Environments by Acid Mine Water: Experimental Study of the Process Using a Factorial Analysis Tool
Fortes Garrido, Juan Carlos; Castilla Gutiérrez, Javier; Miguel Sarmiento, Aguasanta; Grande Gil, José Antonio (MDPI, 2022-08)
Acid mine drainage (AMD) is a process resulting from mining activity, which has a potential degrading effect on metallic materials used in machinery and structural installations, mainly carbon steel composites. This work ... -
Nonlinear Analysis of Rotational Springs to Model Semi-Rigid Frames
Rodríguez González, César Antonio; Caparrós Mancera, Julio José; Hernández Torres, José Antonio; Rodríguez Pérez, Ángel Mariano (MDPI, 2022-07)
This paper explains the mathematical foundations of a method for modelling semi-rigid unions. The unions are modelled using rotational rather than linear springs. A nonlinear secondorder analysis is required, which includes ... -

This article clarifies the often overlooked facts attributed to European missionaries in Asia, especially Jesuits, who acted as catalysts of a kind of nuanced acculturation named Accommodatio (adaptation). To a great ... -
Hydrochemical Characterization of an Acid Mine Effluent from Concepcion Mine Using Classical Statistic and Fuzzy Logic Techniques
Santisteban Fernández, María; Luís, Ana Teresa; Grande Gil, José Antonio; Aroba Páez, Javier; Dávila Martín, José Miguel; Miguel Sarmiento, Aguasanta; Fortes Garrido, Juan Carlos; Córdoba García, Francisco; Rodríguez Pérez, Ángel Mariano (MDPI, 2022)
This work focuses on the physical-chemical characterization of a mining effluent affected by acid mine drainage (AMD) from its source to the confluence in the Odiel river, one of the most polluted rivers by AMD worldwide, ... -
A Critical Review of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) Use in Architecture and Urbanism: Scientometric and Bibliometric Analysis
Videras Rodríguez, Marta; Gómez Melgar, Sergio Jesús; Sánchez Cordero, Antonio; Andújar Márquez, José Manuel (MDPI, 2021)
In recent years the use of UAVs (Unmanned aerial vehicles) have proliferated in the civil sector for purposes such as search and rescue, remote sensing or real-time monitoring of road traffic, among others. In the architecture, ... -
New Research Trends and Topics for Achieving Energy Efficiency in Buildings: Both New and Rehabilitated
Gómez Melgar, Sergio Jesús; Andújar Márquez, José Manuel (MDPI, 2022)
In the Special Issue of Energies entitled Energy Efficiency in Buildings Both New and Rehabilitated that was published in 2019, a broad spectrum of research teams from around the world provided their latest findings on ... -
Prevention of Hazards Induced by a Radiation Fireball through Computational Geometry and Parametric Design
Radiation fireballs are singular phenomena which involve severe thermal radiation and, consequently, they need to be duly assessed and prevented. Although the radiative heat transfer produced by a sphere is relatively ... -
Modeling of the Wind Potential in the Open Sea and Its Application to the Calculation of Energy
Bahamonde García, Manuel Ignacio; Macías Macías, José; Rodríguez González, César Antonio; Pérez Litrán, Salvador; Sánchez Herrera, María Reyes (MDPI, 2022)
A reliable estimate of the wind potential in the marine atmospheric boundary layer (MABL) is of great importance to justify the energetic viability of new offshore wind farms. The purpose of the study is to provide an ... -
Reutilisation of Water Contaminated by Mining Waste for the Encapsulation of Potentially Toxic Elements
(MDPI, 2022)Mining activities are essential for a population’s development; however, they also produce negative effects such as the production of waste, an impact on flora and water pollution. On the other hand, construction is one ... -
Past, present and future global influence and technological applications of iron-bearing metastable nanominerals
Caraballo Monge, Manuel Antonio; Asta, Maria P.; Perez, Jeffrey Paulo H.; Hochella Jr., Michel F. (Elsevier, 2021)
Iron-bearing nanominerals such as ferrihydrite, schwertmannite, and green rust behave as metastable precursors leading to the formation of more thermodynamically stable iron mineral phases (e.g., jarosite, goethite, ... -
A holistic methodology to study geochemical and geomorphological control of the distribution of potentially toxic elements in soil
(Elsevier, 2021)Control of Potentially Toxic Elements (PTEs) in soil-polluted areas is needed to address the potential risk that pollution poses to public health and the environment. This study describes an innovative holistic methodology ... -
