Anthropogenic effects on the hydro-morphological development of turbid estuaries

Estuarine sediment dynamics involves estuarine hydrodynamics, sediment transport, and morphology, and strongly influence ecosystem dynamics and sustainability. In the current geological epoch, referred to as the Anthropocene, human activities are exerting increasing impacts on the environment on all scales, changing hydrodynamics, sediment...

A novel thermomechanical modelling framework in metal additive manufacturing process modelling

Powder bed fusion (PBF) is a widely used metal additive manufacturing method where a part is built with almost no limitation on its geometrical layout. However, parts built by PBF typically suffer from distortions and residual stresses which depend on the PBF processing conditions and the geometrical layout of the part. In order to investigate...
