Factors controlling suspended sediment yield during runoff events in small headwater catchments of the Basque Country
(Elsevier, 2007-09-01)
For the first time in the Basque Country, turbidity (NTU), discharge (l/s) and precipitation (mm) have been continuously monitored in the gauging stations located at the outlet of three catchments (Aixola, Barrendiola and ...
Chemostratigraphic and lithostratigraphic signatures of the Anthropocene in estuarine areas from the eastern Cantabrian coast (N. Spain)
(Elsevier, 2015-04)
A range of chemostratigraphic and lithostratigraphic markers of human impacts can be recorded in four estuaries located in the eastern Cantabrian coast (northern Spain). Metal-enriched levels and stable Pb isotopic ratios ...
Electric arc furnace slag and its use in hydraulic concrete
(Elsevier, 2015-08-15)
Electric arc furnace oxidizing slag (EAFS) is a by-product of the steelmaking industry, generated after the melting and the preliminary acid refining of liquid steel. It is a stony material that is easy to crush for use ...
Fast driving between arbitrary states of a quantum particle by trap deformation
(2016-12-22)
By performing a slow adiabatic change between two traps of a quantum particle, it is possible to transform an eigenstate of the original trap into the corresponding eigenstate of the final trap. If no level crossings are ...
Effect of CdSe nanoparticle addition on nanostructuring of PS-b-P4VP copolymer via solvent vapour exposure
(Elsevier, 2013-10-28)
The surface morphology of poly(styrene-b-4 vinyl pyridine) (PS-b-P4VP) diblock copolymer thin films
after solvent vapor annealing has been studied. Morphological features can be switched upon exposure
to vapors of a ...
Flexible polyurethane foams based on 100% renewably sourced polyols
(Elsevier, 2014-10-5)
Since polyol is one of the major components in polyurethane foam synthesis, introducing renewably
sourced polyols in the foam formulation leads to materials with high renewable carbon content. A series of
flexible ...
Effect of different hemicelluloses characteristics on film forming properties
(Elsevier, 2013)
Hemicelluloses are known to have good gas barrier properties makes them of interest to film applications.
Corn cob, cotton waste, olive, apple tree pruning, pepper and chilli wastes were used as hemicelluloses
sources ...
Does a non-circular chainring improve performance in the bicycle motocross cycling start sprint?
(Department of Sports Medicine, Medical Faculty of Uludag University, 2014)
Maximising power output during the initial acceleration phase of a bicycle motocross (BMX) race increases the chance to lead the group for the rest of the race. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of ...
Fast atom transport and launching in a nonrigid trap
(Springer Nature, 2017-07-18)
We study the shuttling of an atom in a trap with controllable position and frequency. Using invariant-based inverse engineering, protocols in which the trap is simultaneously displaced and expanded are proposed to speed ...
Deep-sea benthic response to rapid climatic oscillations of the last glacial cycle in the SE Bay of Biscay
(Elsevier, 2017-06-09)
Paleoclimatic evolution of the last 140 ka (Marine Isotopic Stages MIS 1 to MIS 5) in the South Bay of Biscay has been studied by considering microfossil changes in sediment samples of deep core PP10-17. This core was ...
