Accurate Determination of the Q Quality Factor in Magnetoelastic Resonant Platforms for Advanced Biological Detection
(MDPI, 2018-03)The main parameters of magnetoelastic resonators in the detection of chemical (i.e., salts, gases, etc.) or biological (i.e., bacteria, phages, etc.) agents are the sensitivity S (or external agent change magnitude per Hz ... -
Active and Passive Tuning of Ultranarrow Resonances in Polaritonic Nanoantennas
(Wiley, 2022-03-10)[EN] Optical nanoantennas are of great importance for photonic devices and spectroscopy due to their capability of squeezing light at the nanoscale and enhancing light-matter interactions. Among them, nanoantennas made of ... -
Activity and stability of different Fe loaded primary catalysts for tar elimination
(Elsevier, 2022-06)[EN] The performance of olivine, dolomite and gamma-alumina primary catalysts was evaluated in the continuous tar elimination process in which toluene was selected as the biomass gasification tar model compound. Iron was ... -
Adaptation to climate change in cities of Mediterranean Europe
(Cities, 2023-09-01)Cities across Mediterranean Europe face common climatic threats. They are highly vulnerable and very likely to suffer losses and damages due to heat waves, droughts, wildfires, landslides, and extreme coastal events. To ... -
Adaption planning to climate change in industrial fisheries: Progress in the Basque tropical tuna fishery
(Marine Policy, 2024-03-01)Climate change impacts on ocean living organisms and ecosystems have flow-on effects on fisheries and their associated values. Industrial fisheries operate long distance fleets that potentially have the capacity to respond ... -
Adaptive coatings based on polyaniline for direct 2D observation of diffusion processes in microfluidic systems
(Elsevier, 2016-08)[EN] Therefore the understanding and proper evaluation of the flow and mixing behaviour at microscale becomes a very important issue. In this study, the diffusion behaviour of two reacting solutions of HCI and NaOH were ... -
Addendum to Understanding risks in the light of uncertainty: low-probability, high-impact coastal events in cities
(IOP Publishing, 2018)This addendum adds to the analysis presented in Understanding risks in the light of uncertainty: low-probability, high-impact coastal events in cities Abadie et al (2017 Environ. Res. Lett . 12 [https://doi.org/10.1088 ... -
Adding dimensional features for emotion recognition on speech
(IEEE, 2020-10-20)Developing accurate emotion recognition systems requires extracting suitable features of these emotions. In this paper, we propose an original approach of parameters extraction based on the strong, theoretical and empirical, ... -
Additive Manufacturing of Conducting Polymers: Recent Advances, Challenges and Opportunities
(American Chemical Society, 2021-06-01)Conducting polymers (CPs) have been attracting great attention in the development of (bio)electronic devices. Most of current devices are rigid 2D systems and possess uncontrollable geometries and architectures that lead ... -
Adiponectin, leptin, and IGF-1 are useful diagnostic and stratification biomarkers of NAFLD
(Frontiers Media, 2021-06-23)[EN] Background: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease where liver biopsy remains the gold standard for diagnosis. Here we aimed to evaluate the role of circulating adiponectin, ... -
Advanced Research Trends in Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells
(Royal Society Of Chemistry, 2021-03-10)Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) are an efficient photovoltaic technology for powering electronic applications such as wireless sensors with indoor light. Their low cost and abundant materials, as well as their capability ... -
