The fossil energy resources decrease and climate changes, caused by carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, have led most industrialized countries to undertake policies aimed at the development and use of renewable energy sources. Among the renewable energies, vegetal biomasses play a key role because widely available and potentially able to cover up to 200% of the global energy demand. Vegetal biomasses can be used mainly as raw materials for the production of chemicals, biofuels and energy, in the increasingly important green economy concept based on biorefineries creation.

Abstract:
In the hierarchical approach of constitutive modelling, the damage accumulation and resulting strain-softening behavior of geologic materials can be modelled by introducing a concept of damage evaluation. The damage accumulation and softening behavior are affected by the size of specimens. A series of uniaxial tests on cylindrical specimens of a simulated rock were performed. The effect of specimen size on the parameters of the damage model were investigated by using the test results. The empirical results show that the damage parameters can be related to a characteristic dimension, which was

Abstract:
The surface integrity of a machined component that meets the demands of a specific application requirement is defined by several characteristics. The residual stress profile into the component is often considered as the critical characteristics as it carries a direct effect on the fatigue life of a machined component. A significant amount of effort has been dedicated by researchers to predict post process stress in a workpiece using analytical, experimental, and numerical modeling methods. Nonetheless, no methodology is available that can express the cutting process parameters and tool geomet

Abstract:
Metal cutting is a widely used manufacturing technique in the industry and has been the focus of many research and studies in both academic and industrial fields. Prediction of induced residual stresses in a machined component is essential in a component’s fatigue life and surface integrity approximation. Furthermore, it plays a significant role in optimizing cutting process conditions as well as cutting tool geometries. Research has found that using experimental techniques in measuring residual stresses in a machined component is both time consuming and expensive as a method. In the attempt o

To understand variations in the stress response, two separate research traditions have developed: one that focuses on appraisal and the other on stressors. Research on stressors informs our understanding of the social conditions that expose individuals to potentially stressful situations, whereas research on appraisal informs our understanding of why different people respond to stressors in different ways. The present study seeks to integrate findings from these two research traditions and extend our understanding of the stress process by investigating the possibility those variations in sourc

Maximising performance of microbial processes, including yeast-based processes, in an industrial setting requires understanding of the impact of process stresses.

The flow module is relevant to the pre-gelation behaviour of resin, while the stress module is valid for the post-gelation composite material.
