13. New mathematical modelling for grain size distribution adjustment in concrete
Abstract Concrete used in civil engineering is a composite obtained from the combination of coarse and fine aggregates, cement and water, and its cost and quality are normally associated to the proportion of its constituents (ceramic formulation), as well as the reduction of water consumption. The aggregates used in concrete may have diverse origins, and the

14. A short remark on the modelling of a three-story shear-building structure
Abstract In this note, some remarks on the modelling of a multi-degree-of-freedom system, a three-story shear-building structure, is presented. The modelling of a mechanical system is one of the most important aspects in engineering and physics, since is crucial for the understanding of the system. Besides, the model, if properly made, can be also useful to

16. Comprobación de la uniformidad de resultados de un equipo de ensayos simultáneos de termofluencia
ABSTRACT The phenomenon of creep occurs in materials that operate under high temperatures and mechanical stresses, causing changes in their structures; such changes are evidenced by a progressive loss of mechanical strength. The characterization of this phenomenon should be performed with appropriate test machines, which are usually dependent on expensive te

18. Denaturation processes of collagen from cow bones as a function of temperature
ABSTRACT The thermal stability of collagen is of great interest for the scientific communities both of medicine and archaeology. In medicine, the interest is focused to the reconstruction and repair of bone and cartilage, given the frequency and importance of pathological situations. In contrast, in archaeology the interest is focused to infer from buried an

19. Replacement of Gas Metal Arc Welding by Friction Welding for Joining Tubes in the Hydraulic Cylinders Industry
Friction welding is a solid state technology which has been used worldwide. Potential advantages may be recognized as reducing welding project costs, weld weight, environmental impact and to promote enhanced mechanical properties. However, traditional welding methods are still a common practice in many engineering areas. In this sense, this work aims to pres

20. Effect of Thermal Treatment on the Dynamic Behaviors at a Fixed Loading Rate of Limestone in Quasi-vacuum and Air-filled Environments
Abstract Thermal damage in rock engineering occurs in the air-filled and quasi-vacuum environments of rock mass located near or far from the free surface. Meanwhile, dynamic loads are encountered frequently in engineering practice. In this study, 39 limestone samples are prepared, and a series of laboratory tests, including split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHP

21. Free vibration analysis and design optimization of SMA/Graphite/Epoxy composite shells in thermal environments
Abstract Composite shells, which are being widely used in engineering applications, are often under thermal loads. Thermal loads usually bring thermal stresses in the structure which can significantly affect its static and dynamic behaviors. One of the possible solutions for this matter is embedding Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) wires into the structure. In the
