Cork: a strategic material

Cork is a material whose applications have been known since Antiquity, especially in floating devices and as stopper for beverages, mainly wine, whose market, from the early twentieth century, had a massive expansion, particularly due to the development of several cork based agglomerates (Gil, 2011). Cork is closely related to the maintenance of biodiversity, the heart of sustainable developmen...

It has been shown that a 32-bit logarithmic arithmetic unit can operate faster than, and maintain the accuracy of, a 32-bit floating point unit. It uses the logarithmic number system (LNS), in which a real number is represented as a fixedpoint logarithm. In this paper we investigate the implementation of three fast affine projection (FAP) algorithms using LNS. We propose a simplified Conjugate ...

Cork Composites: A Review

Cork is a material which has been used for mankind for the last 5,000 years and it is a strategic material used for multiple applications, from wine bottles to aeronautics. Many of current cork materials are composites, in particular cork materials for floor and wall coverings and several other building and industrial applications. Recent developments in cork research have shifted from the clas...

Analysis of Pelletizing of Granulometric Separation Powder from Cork Industries

Cork industries generate a considerable amount of solid waste during their processing. Its management implies a problem for companies that should reconsider its reuse for other purposes. In this work, an analysis of pelletizing of granulometric separation powder, which is one of the major wastes in cork industries and which presents suitable properties (as an raw material) for its thermal use, ...
