The representation of basque immigration in american cinema: Wild is the Wind (1959) or the Q quest for elucidating what a basque is
(Universidade Estadual Paulista Julio de Mesquita Filho. Brasil, 2017)
In previous studies I have presented a general overview of the way American Cinema depicted Basque people, and especially Basque immigrants in the American West, and its evolution since the times of silent cinema to our ...
Understanding Grammars through Diachronic Change
(Frontiers Media, 2017-07-31)
In this paper, I will vindicate the importance of syntactic change for the study of synchronic stages of natural languages, according to the following outline. First, I will analyze the relationship between the diachrony ...
Review on Microfluidic Paper-based Analytical Devices towards Commercialisation
(Elsevier, 2017-11-11)
Paper-based analytical devices introduce an innovative platform technology for fluid handling andanalysis, with wide range of applications, promoting low cost, ease of fabrication/operation and equipment independence. This ...
Manipulation of Fluid Flow Direction in Microfluidic Paper-Based Analytical Devices with an Ionogel Negative Passive Pump
(Elsevier, 2017-03-06)
Microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (microPADs) are a relatively new group of analytical tools thatrepresent an innovative low-cost platform technology for fluid handling and analysis. Nonetheless, microPADs lack ...
Reusable Ionogel-based Photo-actuators in a Lab-on-a-disc
(Elsevier, 2017-11-04)
This paper describes the design, fabrication and performance of a reusable ionogel-based photo-actuator, in-situ photopolymerised into a lab-on-a-disc microfluidic device, for flow control. The ionogel provides an effective ...
Crystallization and Stereocomplexation of PLA-mb-PBS Multi-Block Copolymers
(MDPI, 2017-12-22)
The crystallization and morphology of PLA-mb-PBS copolymers and their corresponding stereocomplexes were studied. The effect of flexible blocks (i.e., polybutylene succinate, PBS) on the crystallization of the copolymers ...
Living different lives: Early social differentiation identified through linking mortuary and isotopic variability in Late Neolithic/ Early Chalcolithic north-central Spain
(Public Library Science, 2017-09-27)
Variation in burial location and treatment is often observed in the prehistoric archaeological record, but its interpretation is usually highly ambiguous. Biomolecular approaches provide the means of addressing this ...
Detection of Intratumor Heterogeneity in Modern Pathology: A Multisite Tumor Sampling Perspective
(Frontiers Media, 2017-03-06)
Current sampling protocols of neoplasms along the digestive tract and in the urinary bladder have to be updated, as they do not respond to the necessities of modern personalized medicine. We show here that an adapted version ...
Endogenous Fishing Mortalities: a State-Space Bioeconomic Model
(Oxford University Press, 2017-05-13)
A methodology that endogenously determines catchability functions that link fi shing mortality with
contemporaneous stock abundance is presented. We consider a stochastic age-structured model for
a fishery composed by ...
Mechatronics of a ball screw drive using a N degrees of freedom dynamic model
(Springer, 2017-10)
High performance position control in machine tools can only be achieved modelling the dynamic behavior of the mechatronic system composed by the motor, transmission and control during the design stage. In this work, a ...
