A Generalization Performance Study Using Deep Learning Networks in Embedded Systems
(MDPI, 2021-02-03)
Deep learning techniques are being increasingly used in the scientific community as a consequence of the high computational capacity of current systems and the increase in the amount of data available as a result of the ...
SR-B1, a Key Receptor Involved in the Progression of Cardiovascular Disease: A Perspective from Mice and Human Genetic Studies
(MDPI, 2021-05-27)
High plasma level of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is the main driver of the initiation and progression of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Nevertheless, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) is considered an anti-atherogenic ...
Foveal Pit Morphology Characterization: A Quantitative Analysis of the Key Methodological Steps
(MDPI, 2021-06-01)
Disentangling the cellular anatomy that gives rise to human visual perception is one of the main challenges of ophthalmology. Of particular interest is the foveal pit, a concave depression located at the center of the ...
Rotational Speed Control Using ANN-Based MPPT for OWC Based on Surface Elevation Measurements
(MDPI, 2020-11-16)
This paper presents an ANN-based rotational speed control to avoid the stalling behavior in Oscillating Water Columns composed of a Doubly Fed Induction Generator driven by a Wells turbine. This control strategy uses ...
Complementary Airflow Control of Oscillating Water Columns for Floating Offshore Wind Turbine Stabilization
(MDPI, 2021-06-12)
The implementation and integration of new methods and control techniques to floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) have the potential to significantly improve its structural response. This paper discusses the idea of ...
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 ...
Single-ion polymer/LLZO hybrid electrolytes with high lithium conductivity
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021-11-25)
Hybrid solid electrolytes which combine the properties of inorganic and polymeric ion conductors are being investigated for lithium batteries which use lithium metal anodes. The number of inorganic/polymer compositions and ...
Pedagogical Approaches for Sustainable Development in Building in Higher Education
(MDPI, 2021-09-13)
Education for sustainable development (ESD) is one of the great challenges that university faculties have to face. Therefore, a multidisciplinary team from the faculty of Engineering of Gipuzkoa (EIG) at the University of ...
Life-form diversity across temperate deciduous forests of Western Eurasia: A different story in the understory
(Wiley, 2021-11)
Aim To analyse the biogeographic patterns of Temperate Deciduous Forests (TDFs) in Western Eurasia based on different life-forms and forests layers and explore their relationships with the current climate, Last Glacial ...
