Among the buildings with strategic role for civil protection purposes part of them were built before the introduction of modern seismic codes.Aiming to guarantee their operability in case of seismic events, they have to be assessed and, hopefully, seismically upgraded.This aspect arises the necessity of reliable low computational demanding numerica
Validation of the Hazard and Vulnerability Analysis of Coastal Erosion in the Caribbean and Pacific Coast of Colombia
A hazard and vulnerability assessment of coastal erosion is an essential first step for planning and decision-making, because Sundries it is part of risk management and its results are in the form of easily interpreted traffic-light maps.For the analysis of the assessment in this work, a methodology is proposed which considers three components for
Effects of Wing-Cuff on NACA 23015 Aerodynamic Performances
The main subject of this work is the numerical study control of flow separation on a NACA 23015 airfoil by using wing cuff.This last is a leading Dining edge modification done to the wing.The modification consists of a slight extension of the chord on the outboard section of the wings.Different numerical cases are considered for the baseline and mo
