From classical to nonparametric growth models: Towards comprehensive modelling of mussel growth patterns
(Elsevier, 2017-03-18)
Understanding biological processes, such as growth, is crucial to development management and sustainability plans for bivalve populations. Von Bertalanffy and Gompertz models have been commonly used to fit bivalve growth. ...
Gelatin and tannic acid based iongels for muscle activity recording and stimulation electrodes
(ACS, 2022-06-01)
Iongels are soft ionic conducting materials, usually comprised of polymer networks swollen with ionic liquids (ILs), which are being investigated for applications ranging from energy to bioelectronics. The employment of ...
Fast successive self-nucleation and annealing (SSA) thermal fractionation protocol for the characterization of polyolefin blends from mechanical recycling
(Wiley, 2022-04-29)
The sorting stage of mechanical recycling of post-consumer polyolefins has severe challenges. Polypropylene (PP) is often contaminated with polyethylene (PE) and vice versa. To meet quality requirements, characterization ...
Injectable PEDOT:PSS/cholinium ionic liquid mixed conducting materials for electrocardiogram recordings
(RSC, 2022-09-27)
Mixed conducting polymer electrodes built from poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene): poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) are attracting a great deal of interest in healthcare monitoring. However, the widespread application of ...
Conditions for the joint conversion of CO2 and syngas in the direct synthesis of light olefins using In2O3−ZrO2/SAPO-34 catalyst
(ACS, 2021-11-09)
The conditions for promoting the joint conversion of CO2 and syngas in the direct synthesis of light olefins have been studied. In addition, given the relevance for the viability of the process, the stability of the ...
Kinetic modeling and reactor design of the direct synthesis of dimethyl ether for CO2 valorization. A review
(Elsevier, 2022-08-04)
The direct synthesis of dimethyl ether (DME) is considered one of the most attractive routes for valorizing CO2 and syngas on a large scale. DME has a high cetane number and its properties are similar to those of liquefied ...
New trends in catalysis for sustainable CO2 conversion
(MDPI, 2022-10-23)
Over the past few decades, there have been many advances in the world, leading to improvements in quality of life. Due to demographic and industrial growth, consumption has increased, as well as the amount of waste and ...
Hybrid Modeling of Deformable Linear Objects for Their Cooperative Transportation by Teams of Quadrotors
(MDPI, 2022-05-23)
his paper deals with the control of a team of unmanned air vehicles (UAVs), specifically quadrotors, for which their mission is the transportation of a deformable linear object (DLO), i.e., a cable, hose or similar object ...
Experimental implementation of a catalytic membrane reactor for the direct synthesis of DME from H2+CO/CO2
(Elsevier, 2021-01-05)
The direct synthesis of dimethyl ether (DME) by the hydrogenation of CO2 and CO2/COx mixtures has been studied in an original packed bed membrane reactor (PBMR). The role of the hydrophilic LTA zeolite membrane is to remove ...
Identification and measurement of tropical tuna species in purse seiner catches using computer vision and deep learning
(Elsevier, 2022-03)
Fishery monitoring programs are essential for effective management of marine resources, as they provide scientists and managers with the necessary data for both the preparation of scientific advice and fisheries control ...
