Project-based learning and use of the CDIO Syllabus for geology course assessment
(2014-07-06)
This study provides an overview of the development of hard and soft skills from project-based curriculum planning, and suggests ways to evaluate them in the context of engineering education and their importance in the ...
Analysis and prediction of welding distortion in complex structures using elastic finite element method
(2012-07)
The Elastic Finite Element Method based on the inherent strain theory is used to predict the welding distortion of ship structures. In addition, a method to predict welding distortion of complex structures by using elastic ...
Inspection of Biomimicry Approaches as an Alternative to Address Climate-Related Energy Building Challenges: A Framework for Application in Panama
(2020-06-01)
In the Panama context, energy consumption in the building sector is mostly related to the conditioning of indoor spaces for cooling and lighting. Different nature strategies can be mimic to strongly impact these two aspects ...

Biomass carbonization - Production and characterization of biochar from rice husks
(2019 7th International Engineering, Sciences and Technology Conference (IESTEC)2019 7th International Engineering, Sciences and Technology Conference (IESTEC), 2019-12-30)
El presente trabajo consistió en producir y caracterizar carbón vegetal a partir de la cascarilla de arroz. La cascarilla de arroz fue generada en un reactor de flujo ascendente tipo Top-lit. Este proceso fue favorable ...
A numerical study of parameters governing an inherent deformation database of plates formed by line heating
(2008-08)
As an overall strategy to improve the accuracy of the forming process, the authors pay attention to those factors which may influence the inherent deformation of plates formed by line heating. In order to identify those ...
The Effect of Gasification Conditions on the Surface Properties of Biochar Produced in a Top-Lit Updraft Gasifier
(2020-01-19)
The effect of airflow rate, biomass moisture content, particle size, and compactness on the surface properties of biochar produced in a top-lit updraft gasifier was investigated. Pine woodchips were studied as the feedstock. ...
