Advances in Modelling and Prediction on the Impact of Human Activities and Ex…

Fast urbanization and industrialization have progressively caused severe impacts on mountainous, river, and coastal environments, and have increased the risks for people living in these areas. Human activities have changed ecosystems hence it is important to determine ways to predict these consequences to enable the preservation and restoration of these key areas. Furthermore, extreme event…

Advances in Mechanical Systems Dynamics 2020

In the present study, a novel approach to estimating the efficiency of roller chain power transmission systems is proposed based on sliding friction losses and damping force

Advances in Mechanical Systems Dynamics

: In this paper, a single leg platform for quadruped robots is designed based on the motivation of high-speed locomotion. The leg is designed for lightweight and low inertia with a structure of three joints by imitating quadruped animals

2D Nanomaterials Processing and Integration in Miniaturized Devices

2D nanomaterials are a relatively populous and ever-expanding class of innovative materials with disruptive potential for different application contexts. Although for some of them, such as graphene, various possible implementations have already been explored in different application fields, others, (e.g., Mxenes), are still relatively at an infantile stage with regard to handling, stability, ex…

50 Years World Heritage Convention: Shared Responsibility – Conflict & Reco…
