This paper presents the development, implementation, and validation of a macro-element suitable for the linear analysis of innovative 3D plug-and-play joints between tubular columns and lightweight steel truss-girders. The macro-element is based on the component method, accounts for the three-dimensional interaction between the tube faces,...

This paper introduces a new plug-in for QGIS that allows to connect to the free and open-source 3D City Database to load CityGML data, structured as classic GIS layers, into QGIS. The user is therefore not required to be a CityGML specialist, or a SQL expert, as the plug-in takes care of hiding from the user most of the complexity in terms of...

Distal cement plug removal in total hip arthroplasty revision is a time-consuming and technically challenging procedure. There is a risk of perforating the femur while drilling in the cement plug. This risk increases when the orientation of the prosthesis tip is excentric. The aim of this study was to design a reusable drill guide that...

The Molten Salt Fast Reactor (MSFR) is a next generation nuclear reactor. The MSFR may play an important role in combatting global warming whilst ensuring energy safety considering fossil fuels’ finiteness. A key safety mechanism for the MSFR is the freeze plug, a valve underneath the reactor core designed to melt during reactor malfunction,...

After decades of exploitation of hydrocarbons, the offshore facilities constructed for this purpose are nearing the end of their design life and/or economic operation. According to international law, these offshore structures need to be completely removed. Decommissioning of the substructures often requires for soil to be removed in piles to...

Software testing is one of the most important aspects of modern software development. To ensure the quality of the software, developers should ideally write and execute automated tests regularly as their code-base evolves. TestKnight, a plugin for the IntelliJ IDEA integrated development environment (IDE), aims to help Java developers improve...

The European Union's Environmental Technology Verification (ETV) program aims to foster innovative environmental technologies to reach the market and reassure potential users. This paper presents an investigation of using ETV for three technologies, being developed within the EU Zero Brine research and innovation project. The technologies...

A steel frame is designed which is expandable and reducible at any time. In order to reduce the assembly and disassembly time of the frame a new type of beam-to-column connection is proposed, a so-called plug & play connection.The design codes cannot be used for the estimation of the structural performance of this connection. Therefor the...

This study aims to provide a proof of concept of a plug-in hybrid electric superyacht. In this way, the yachting industry can help reduce carbon emissions worldwide and potentially increase comfort levels. The concept takes advantage of the typical operating profile of a yacht. A statistical analysis is performed to discretise this and obtain...

The current navigation systems used in many autonomous mobile robotic applications, like unmanned vehicles, are always equipped with various sensors to get accurate navigation results. The key point is to fuse the information from different sensors efficiently. However, different sensors provide asynchronous measurements, some of which even...

This paper presents a distributed computational framework for stochastic convex optimization problems using the so-called scenario approach. Such a problem arises, for example, in a large-scale network of interconnected linear systems with local and common uncertainties. Due to the large number of required scenarios to approximate the...

This paper presents a simulation-based analysis of hybrid and plug-in hybrid propulsion system concepts for diesel-electric multiple unit regional railway vehicles. These alternative concepts primarily aim to remove emissions in terminal stops with longer stabling periods, with additional benefits reflected in the reduction of overall fuel...

Explicit rules for safety verification of open cold-formed lightweight beam-to-tubular column joints are missing in the current EC3-1-8. By developing economical detailing, with design guidance based on Eurocodes, the market share for new buildings, renovation and for additional storeys on existing buildings will increase. Within the...

Since the voltages and currents in dc grids do not have a natural zero-crossing, the protection of these grids is more challenging than the protection of conventional ac grids. Literature presents several unit and non-unit protection schemes that rely on communication, or knowledge about the system's topology and parameters in order to...

The thesis aims to offer a review of a modern conceptual facade focusing on one more possible solution to sustainable facade refurbishment for existing tall buildings. There are thousands of highrise buildings in the world and almost all of them over time will require some degree of refurbishment. The premise of this thesis is based on the...

This paper focuses on the freeze-plug, a key safety component of the Molten Salt Fast Reactor, one of the Gen. IV nuclear reactors that must excel in safety, reliability, and sustainability. The freeze-plug is a valve made of frozen fuel salt, designed to melt when an event requiring the core drainage occurs. Melting and draining must be...

We address the problem to control the charging schedules in a large population of plug-in electric vehicles, considered as heterogeneous noncooperative agents, with different strongly convex cost functions weakly coupled by a common pricing signal, convex charging constraints, e.g. plug-in times, deadlines and capacity limits. We assume a...

The division present in Strasbourg’s urban tissue is a direct result of the fortifications systems that were implemented, reshaped and mostly demolished between the seventeenth and nineteenth centuries. As a border city between France and Germany, it was always under the threat of a sudden attack. My proposal is a bridging structure that...

Outbreaks of bacteria have caused many problems over the last few years and are a major public health concern. Bacteria are now affecting our lives in many ways to a more severe extent, from contaminated food in markets to polluted water. There are some devices available which detect bacteria, however, all of them can only be used in the lab...

This study presents a classification for subaqueous clay-laden sediment gravity flows. A series of laboratory flume experiments were performed using 9%, 15%, and 21% sediment mixture concentrations composed of sand, silt, clay, and tap water, on varying bed slopes of 6°, 8°, and 9.5°, and with discharge rates of 10 and 15 m<sup>3</sup>/hr. In...
