Mining of deep-seabed nodules using a Coandă-effect-based collector

open access: yesResults in Engineering, 2023
We present an effective design of a hydraulic, polymetallic nodule collector, which fundamentally depends on the Coandă effect in harvesting nodules. The design was first developed based on 2D numerical simulations conducted using a computational fluid ...

From Quarries to Urban Construction Sites: Middle‐Late Mesozoic Limestones in the Public Architecture of Roman Verona, Italy

open access: yesGeoarchaeology, Volume 41, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT Numerous buildings, monuments, and infrastructural works in Verona were constructed during the Roman period using stone, a material abundantly available from quarrying areas located relatively close to the city. Petrographic investigations conducted by Transmitted Polarized Light Optical Microscopy (TPL‐OM) and complemented by colorimetric ...
