Handling Low-Density LiDAR Data: Calculating the Heights of Civil Constructions and the Accuracy Expected

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2013
During the last years, in many developed countries, administrations and private companies have devoted considerable amounts of money to obtain mapping data using airborne LiDAR. For many civil activities, we can take advantage of it, since those data are

Grazing Modulates the Multiscale Spatial Structure of Dryland Vegetation. [PDF]

open access: yesGlob Chang Biol
We studied how grazing pressure affects plant spatial patterns in drylands by using satellite images, field plant size and abundance data, and a mathematical model. We found that increasing grazing pressure has opposite effects on vegetation spatial structure to those of aridity, which might be explained by the fact that grazing decreases plant size ...

Hollow wire corrosion of stainless steel ropes in a marine mooring system and its relation to microstructure

open access: yesMaterials and Corrosion, Volume 74, Issue 6, Page 818-830, June 2023., 2023
Hollow wire corrosion of stainless steel ropes from mooring installations applied in seawater is introduced. Martensite distribution in the austenite and crystallographic texture resulting from the production technology of the cold‐drawn wires are identified as decisive for this kind of corrosion.

Corrosion evaluation of welded nickel aluminum bronze and manganese aluminum bronze in synthetic sea water

open access: yesMaterials and Corrosion, Volume 73, Issue 11, Page 1788-1799, November 2022., 2022
The effect of welding processes on the corrosion behavior of CuAl10Fe5Ni5 and CuMn12Al8Fe4Ni2 was studied. The microstructures of the welded samples were characterized by metallography using two chemical agents and examined by optical and scanning electron microscopy.

The effectiveness of physical and virtual manipulatives on learning and motivation in structural engineering

open access: yesJournal of Engineering Education, Volume 111, Issue 4, Page 813-851, October 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Recent advances in technology and computer simulation have expanded the use of virtual manipulatives in engineering education. However, especially in disciplines in which tactile concepts (e.g., force) are included, it has been claimed that learning could be compromised by substituting physical materials with computer simulations ...
