Cluster-based identification algorithm for in-line recycled concrete aggregates characterization using Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS)

To upcycle End-of-Life (EoL) concrete from demolished buildings, it is essential to efficiently identify the different materials that may contaminate it. The precise identification and classification of materials and contaminants are vital processes for in-line quality inspection of recycled concrete aggregates transported on a conveyor belt....

Disposal and recycle economic assessment for aircraft and engine end of life solution evaluation

The present study proposes an economic indicator to support the evaluation of aircraft End of Life (EoL) strategies in view of the increasing demand with regards to aircraft decommissioning. This indicator can be used to evaluate the economic performance and to facilitate the trade-off studies among different strategies. First, Disposal and...
