On the Wind Energy Resource above High-Rise Buildings
(MDPI, 2020)
One of the main challenges of urban wind energy harvesting is the understanding of the flow characteristics where urban wind turbines are to be installed. Among viable locations within the urban environment, high-rise ...
Estimation of Changes in Sediment Transport along the Free-Flowing Middle Danube River Reach
(MDPI, 2023)
The subject of this study is an approximately 300 km long Middle Danube River reach that
spans from river kilometer (rkm) 1581 in Hungary to (rkm) 1255 in Serbia. The observed drying of
floodplains in Hungary some thirty ...
Parametric Study of Additional Temperature Stresses in Continuously Welded Rails on Steel Truss Railway Bridges
(MDPI (Basel, Switzerland), 2023)
Additional temperature stresses in continuously welded rails (CWRs) are caused by track/bridge interaction (TBI) due to thermal actions. Exceeding permissible stresses in CWRs on the bridge can lead to track buckling or ...
Augmented state estimation of urban settings using on-the-fly sequential Data Assimilation
(Elsevier, 2023)
A data-driven investigation of the flow around a high-rise building is per- formed by combining heterogeneous experimental samples and numerical models based on the Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) equations. The ...
Early Highway Construction Cost Estimation: Selection of Key Cost Drivers
(MDPI, 2023)
Cost estimates in the early stages of project development are essential for making the right deci-sions, but they are a huge challenge and risk for owners and potential contractors due to limited information about the ...
On the Flow over High-rise Building for Wind Energy Harvesting: An Experimental Investigation of Wind Speed and Surface Pressure
(MDPI, 2020)
The human migration from rural to urban areas has triggered a chain reaction causing the spiking energy demand of cities worldwide. High-rise buildings filling the urban skyline could potentially provide a means to improve ...
Hydrodynamic Loads in a Stilling Basin of a Converging Stepped Spillway: An Experimental Study
(MDPI, 2023)
This paper presents a methodology for estimation of hydrodynamic loads acting on the bottom and at the walls of a stilling basin of a stepped chute with converging walls, based on the pressure measurements at the selected ...
An Adaptive Section Discretization Scheme for the Nonlinear Dynamic Analysis of Steel Frames
(Journal of Structural Engineering, 2023)
The paper presents an adaptive section discretization scheme for the inelastic response analysis of structural members with cross sections that can be decomposed into rectangular and circular subdomains. Each subdomain can ...
Long-Term Thermal Stress Analysis and Optimization of Contraction Joint Distance of Concrete Gravity Dams
(MDPI, 2022)
Results of the conducted research aiming to demonstrate the methodology of optimization of dam monolith length (distance between contraction joints), through monitoring the thermal tensile stresses during construction and ...
Multivariate and multi-scale generator based on non-parametric stochastic algorithms
(Journal of Hydroinformatics, 2019)
A method for generating combined multivariate time series at multiple locations and at different time scales is presented. The procedure is based on three steps: first, the Monte Carlo method generation of data with ...
