This article is the preamble to a set of articles describing initial results from an on-going European Commission funded, 5th Framework project called OMNIITOX, Operational Models aNd Information tools for Industrial applications of eco/TOXicological impac ...
The use of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RA) in new asphalt pavements can provide important economical savings, while reducing the negative environmental impact. The European research project PARAMIX aims to improve the techniques for hot mix recycling in pl ...
Recently, participation emerged as an appropriate tool to enhance natural resource management. Despite official recognition, there is no consensus on the practical meaning of participation. In this work, we consider the participation as a process through w ...
In spite of its revolutionary approach to design and construction, the industrial legacy of the Sydney Opera House has never been the subject of systematic analysis. Whilst celebrating the genius of his conceiver Jørn Utzon, the literature remains aloof ab ...

The Integrated Project Real-SOFC joins 26 partners from throughout Europe active in planar SOFC technology. The project is funded by the European Commission within the Sixth Framework Programme and aims at improving the understanding of degradation in SOFC ...
Group communication is a programming abstraction that allows a distributed group of processes to provide a reliable service in spite of the possibility of failures within the group. The goal of the project was to improve the state of the art of group commu ...
The goal of this semester project is to create a thermal model of a electronic circuit board that will be used to control a Brushless DC motor for the project “Solar Impulse”. For this project, the finite element (FEM) software Ansys is used to build the m ...
The implementation of bio-inspired systems in hardware has traditionally been more a matter of artistry than of method. The reasons are multiple, but one of the main problems has always been the lack of a universal platform, of a standardized architecture, ...
There is growing interest in using alternative, resistless patterning techniques. Stencil lithography or shadow masking is one of the possible solutions. By means of physical vapor deposition many different materials can be evaporated in vacuum and pattern ...
For the refurbishment projects, one of the most important problems is to evaluate the economical efficiency of the project. It is difficult to estimate, with good accuracy, the hydraulic efficiency in situ for existing configurations and even more difficul ...
