In this thesis, fatigue life of a cantilever aluminum plate with a side notch under certain loading conditions is analyzed. Results of experimental stress analysis of the cantilever aluminum plate by using a uniaxial strain gage are presented. The strain gage is glued on a critical point at the specimen where stress concentration exists. Strain measurement is performed on the base-excited cantilever beam under random vibration test in order to examine the life profile simulation. The fatigue analysis of the test specimen is carried out in both time and frequency domains. Rainflow cycle counti

Biodiesel is an alternative fuel that can be made from vegetable oils or animal fat. This study focuses on whether substitution of soy-based biodiesel fuels for petroleum diesel would produce an overall reduction in emissions of selected pollutants. A life cycle inventory model was developed to estimate energy consumption and emissions of selected pollutants and greenhouse gases. Real-world measurements using portable emission measurement system (PEMS) were made for 15 construction vehicles, including five backhoes, four front-end loaders, and six motor graders on both petroleum diesel and soy

Making correct design decisions during the early stages of the engineering design process is increasingly seen to be important, as changes during the later stage can be costly. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is used as a method to evaluate the design from 'cradle to grave'. In concept design, decisions are made that have a most significant influence on the life cycle, but at this stage the lack of detail makes LCA very difficult if not impossible.

However, many species delay development unless particular environments or rare disturbance events occur. I use models to ask when delayed development (e.g., seed dormancy) in long-lived species can be favoured by selection. I find that long-lived plants experience `immaturity risk': the risk of death due to a population-scale disturbance, such as a fire, before reproducing. This risk can be suffi

Abstract:
La industria de la construcción está fragmentada debido a la gran cantidad de Pequeñas y Medianas Empresas (PYMEs) y la multitud de fases que forman parte de un proyecto. Desde siempre, esta situación ha provocado una serie de problemas en la gestión de proyectos y concretamente en la gestión de los procesos de comunicación e información.<br/><br/>La mayoría de PYMEs a nivel de gestión de proyectos necesitan poder gestionar y compartir los documentos de la empresa. Esto se consigue trasladando las aplicaciones básicas del PC y utilizando un servidor como pueden ser los Sistemas de Gestión Docu

Abstract:
Il biogas che si forma nella pancia di una discarica è un fenomeno noto da sempre, ma solo da alcuni decenni si è iniziato a pensare ad esso come un processo che può portare ad una risorsa. A partire dalla direttiva 2009/28/CE il biometano viene inserito nella lista dei biocombustibili da incentivare, in seguito alla quale seguirà una stagione di grande diffusione di impianti di piccola taglia su tutto il territorio nazionale, alimentati principalmente a FORSU e scarti dell’industria agrozootecnica. Dopo qualche anno di stallo il recepimento della direttiva UE 2015/1513 mette le basi per

Abstract:
This thesis project was conducted to compare the environmental impacts between two types of material for a superstructure of cruising ship (Norwegian Gem) using life cycle assessment (LCA) methods. With the increasing price of industrial raw materials and finite resources, more and more corporations or manufacturers endeavor in seeking more economical materials and less environmental impacts within the ship building field. In recent years, lightweight composite material has been applied in various industrial fields, for instance, green buildings, aircraft and wind turbine blade. In order to st
