Juegos de emulación: marco ideológico para una arquitectura neuronal electrónica de inspiración biológica
(Universitat Oberta de Catalunya, 2020)
The introduction of hard sciences into artistic practices or, conversely, the artistization of science, leads to a redefinition of the concept of art and its field of action. This may favour a return to an art definition ...
Compact Omnidirectional Multicore Fiber-Based Vector Bending Sensor
(Nature, 2021-03-16)
We propose and demonstrate a compact and simple vector bending sensor capable of distinguishing any direction and amplitude with high accuracy. The sensor consists of a short segment of asymmetric multicore fiber (MCF) ...
An Uncertainty Principle for Solutions of the Schrödinger Equation on H-Type Groups
(Cambridge University Press, 2020-04-02)
In this paper we consider uncertainty principles for solutions of certain partial differential equations on H -type groups. We first prove that, on H -type groups, the heat kernel is an average of Gaussians in the central ...
Capability management control and salesperson turnover: a double-edged sword in a product complexity scenario
(Elsevier, 2021-05-15)
[EN] Drawing on the Job Demand-Resources (JD-R) theory, the present study investigates the underlying mechanisms through which capability control, a type of behavior-based control, influences salesperson turnover. Using a ...
Fabrication of high-performance dual carbon Li-ion hybrid capacitor: mass balancing approach to improve the energy-power density and cycle life
(Nature, 2020-07-02)
Most lithium-ion capacitor (LIC) devices include graphite or non-porous hard carbon as negative electrode often failing when demanding high energy at high power densities. Herein, we introduce a new LIC formed by the ...
Phosphatidic Acid Stimulates Myoblast Proliferation through Interaction with LPA1 and LPA2 Receptors
(MDPI, 2021-02-01)
Phosphatidic acid (PA) is a bioactive phospholipid capable of regulating key biological functions, including neutrophil respiratory burst, chemotaxis, or cell growth and differentiation. However, the mechanisms whereby PA ...
A Multi-Objective Approach for Anti-Osteosarcoma Cancer Agents Discovery through Drug Repurposing
(MDPI, 2020-11-22)
Osteosarcoma is the most common type of primary malignant bone tumor. Although nowadays 5-year survival rates can reach up to 60–70%, acute complications and late effects of osteosarcoma therapy are two of the limiting ...
An mHealth Workplace-Based “Sit Less, Move More” Program: Impact on Employees’ Sedentary and Physical Activity Patterns at Work and Away from Work
(MDPI, 2020-11-28)
Background: Most workplace interventions that aim to reduce sedentary behaviour have 38 focused on employees’ sedentary patterns at-work but less have focused on understanding the 39 impact beyond working time. The aim of ...
Suicidal behaviour and cognition: A systematic review with special focus on prefrontal deficits
(Elsevier, 2021-01-01)
BACKGROUND: Suicide is a major health concern worldwide, thus, identifying risk factors would enable a more comprehensive understanding and prevention of this behaviour. Neuropsychological alterations could lead to ...
Zinc Iodide Catalyzed Synthesis of Trisubstituted Allenes from Terminal Alkynes and Ketones
(American Chemical Society, 2021-09-14)
A straightforward, user-friendly, efficient protocol for the one pot, ZnI2-catalyzed allenylation of terminal alkynes with pyrrolidine and ketones, toward trisubstituted allenes, is described. Trisubstituted allenes can ...
