Using Multiple Fidelity Numerical Models for Floating Offshore Wind Turbine Advanced Control Design
(MDPI, 2018-09)
This paper summarises the tuning process of the Aerodynamic Platform Stabiliser control loop and its performance with Floating Offshore Wind Turbine model. Simplified Low-Order Wind turbine numerical models have been used ...
Magnetic field-induced rubber-like behavior in Ni-Mn-Ga particles/polymer composite
(Nature Publishing, 2019-03-05)
Single crystalline Ni-Mn-Ga is well known as a prototype ferromagnetic shape memory alloy (FSMA) exhibiting a giant magnetic field-induced strain (MFIS), up to 12%, due to the magnetically driven twin boundary rearrangement. ...
Probing the Stability and Magnetic Properties of Magnetosome Chains in Freeze-Dried Magnetotactic Bacteria
(Royal Society Of Chemistry, 2020-03-01)
Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense biosynthesize high-quality magnetite nanoparticles, called magnetosomes, and arrange them into a chain that behaves like a magnetic compass. Here we perform magnetometry and polarized ...
Exploring the Different Degrees of Magnetic Disorder in TbxR1−xCu2 Nanoparticle Alloys
(MDPI, 2020-10-28)
Recently, potential technological interest has been revealed for the production of magnetocaloric alloys using Rare-Earth intermetallics. In this work, three series of TbxR1−xCu2 (R ≡ Gd, La, Y) alloys have been produced ...
Effect Of Nb And Cu On The Crystallization Behavior Of Understoichiometric Nd–Fe–B Alloys
(IOP Publishing LTD, 2017-01-11)
In this work, we present a complete study of the influence of Nb and Cu addition on the crystallization behavior of Nd-lean Nd-Fe-B melt-spun alloys. Alloys with compositions Nd10-x-yFe84B6NbxCuy (x = 1, y = 0 and x = 0.5, ...
Analysis of the interaction between elderly people and a simulated virtual coach
(Springer, 2020-12)
The EMPATHIC project develops and validates new interaction paradigms for personalized virtual coaches (VC) to promote healthy and independent aging. To this end, the work presented in this paper is aimed to analyze the ...
Sliding mode control law for a variable speedwind turbine
(WSEAS, 2011)
Modern wind turbines are designed in order to work in variable speed operations. To perform this task, wind turbines are provided with adjustable speed generators, like the double feed induction generator. One of the main ...
Towards brain-tissue-like biomaterials
(Nature, 2020-07-09)
Many biomaterials have been developed which aim to match the elastic modulus of the brain for improved interfacing. However, other properties such as ultimate toughness, tensile strength, poroviscoelastic responses, energy ...
Recent advances in Swedish and Spanish medical entity recognition in clinical texts using deep neural approaches
(BMC, 2019-12-23)
Background Text mining and natural language processing of clinical text, such as notes from electronic health records, requires specific consideration of the specialized characteristics of these texts. Deep learning methods ...
A Dialogue-Act Taxonomy for a Virtual Coach Designed to Improve the Life of Elderly
(MDPI, 2019-07-11)
This paper presents a dialogue act taxonomy designed for the development of a conversational agent for elderly. The main goal of this conversational agent is to improve life quality of the user by means of coaching sessions ...
