Solving structural vibration issues
Publicaciones
-
A structure subjected to vibrational stresses can exhibit unexpected behaviour and may suffer rapid damage. For instance, some members far from the source of vibration may begin to vibrate significantly, a phenomenon known as resonance. When the vibration frequency of an external influence approaches the resonant frequency of the system under study—determined by the system's properties—it can lead to substantial displacements and even catastrophic structural failure.

24 jul 2020Otras IndustriasIt can be challenging for decision-makers to operate an existing plant, to start up a plant or to integrate a new process. These challenges include risks associated with odour and social acceptability, which are sometimes overlooked. However, nearly 70% of citizen complaints about air quality are odour-related. So, it is important to carefully plan operations, as poor odour emissions management can lead to complaints, inspections from the Ministère de l’Environnement or the Lutte contre les changements climatiques and even lawsuits.FIDOR: a practical tool for assessing odour emission risks-

12 may 2020Otras IndustriasThe COVID-19 pandemic has made it clear that there is a need for preventive isolation rooms in the workplace. Moreover, the CNESST has issued rules for employers in this regard: they must see that Whether temporary or permanent, an isolation room will prevent contamination of other employees by those who have symptoms of viral infection or similar symptoms, and will allow the owner to deal with the situation properly. Since ventilation is the key component that keeps an isolation room functioning correctly, this article focuses on the design of ventilation systems, particularly on the method for obtaining the required airflow. The important elements of system operation, maintenance and performance monitoring will also be addressed.Ventilation of isolation rooms

06 feb 2020Energía eléctrica y renovablesThe news headlines are regularly reminding us that critical infrastructure, industrial control systems and other cyber-physical systems are prime prey for nation states and hackers who want to cause real-world damage and chaos. And even if not specifically targeted, with the explosion of ubiquitous network connectivity and commodity platforms in these formerly segregated and isolated environments, they can fall victim to any of the multitude of generic malware campaigns spreading across the Internet, such as ransomware, cryptominers and botnets. Take, for example, the recent compromises suffered by Maersk, Norsk Hydro and Merck.Getting started with an ICS cybersecurity program
