From consultation toward co-production in science and policy: A critical systematic review of participatory climate and energy initiatives
(Energy Research and Social Science, 2021-03-01)In recent decades, co-production has become a cornerstone both in science and policy-making, motivating further collaboration between different actors. To scrutinize such participatory processes within the climate and ... -
From Heisenberg uniqueness pairs to properties of the Helmholtz and Laplace equations
(Elsevier, 2018-09-07)The aim of this paper is to establish uniqueness properties of solutions of the Helmholtz and Laplace equations. In particular, we show that if two solutions of such equations on a domain of Rd agree on two intersecting d ... -
From Lab to Manufacturing Line: Guidelines for the Development and Upscaling of Aqueous Processed NMC622 Electrodes
(The Electrochemical Society, 2023-01-24)Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have facilitated the transition to a more sustainable energy model. Paradoxically, current high energy cathodes are industrially processed using organic solvents, which are deleterious for the ... -
From Plastic Waste to New Materials for Energy Storage
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2022-07-06)The use of plastic waste to develop high added value materials, also known as upcycling, is a useful strategy towards the development of more sustainable materials. More specifically, the use of plastic waste as a feedstock ... -
From principles to practice in paying for nature
(Springer Nature, 2018)Payments for Environmental Services (PES) constitute an innovative economic intervention to counteract the global loss of biodiversity and ecosystem functions. In theory, some appealing features should enable PES to perform ... -
From rooftops to roads: Bilbao’s geospatial solar and EV fusion
(Elsevier, 2024-02-21)The electrification of mobility is a promising solution to effectively reduce CO2 emissions in urban areas. The integration of electric vehicles (EVs) and solar energy is a practical approach for mitigating the strain on ... -
Fruit and Vegetable Consumption is Inversely Associated with Plasma Saturated Fatty Acids at Baseline in Predimed Plus Trial
(Wiley, 2021-09)Scope Plasma fatty acids (FAs) are associated with the development of cardiovascular diseases and metabolic syndrome. The aim of our study is to assess the relationship between fruit and vegetable (F&V) consumption and ... -
Full-Speed Range Control of a Symmetrical Six-Phase Automotive IPMSM Drive with a Cascaded DC-link Configuration
(IEEE, 2023-03-13)This work considers the utilization of a symmetrical six-phase interior permanent magnet synchronous machine drive, including a cascaded dc-link configuration, to make up an electric vehicle propulsion system. This way, ... -
Fully Biodegradable Biocomposites with High Chicken Feather Content
(MDPI, 2017-11-09)The aim of this work was to develop new biodegradable polymeric materials with high loadings of chicken feather (CF). In this study, the effect of CF concentration and the type of biodegradable matrix on the physical, ... -
Functionalization of Cellulose Nanocrystals in Choline Lactate Ionic Liquid
(MDPI, 2016-06)Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are valuable nanomaterials obtained from renewable resources. Their properties make them suitable for a wide range of applications, including polymer reinforcement. However, due to their highly ... -
GABAergic and Cortical and Subcortical Glutamatergic Axon Terminals Contain CB1 Cannabinoid Receptors in the Ventromedial Nucleus of the Hypothalamus
(Public Library of Science, 2011-10)Background: Type-1 cannabinoid receptors (CB1R) are enriched in the hypothalamus, particularly in the ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus (VMH) that participates in homeostatic and behavioral functions including food intake. ... -
Galectin-4 N-Terminal Domain: Binding Preferences Toward A and B Antigens with Different Peripheral Core Presentations
(Frontiers Media, 2021-04-21)The tandem-repeat Galectin-4 (Gal-4) contains two different domains covalently linked through a short flexible peptide. Both domains have been shown to bind preferentially to A and B histo blood group antigens with different ... -
