Angle of loll calculation by cubic spline
(Spanish Society of Maritime Research (SEECMAR), 2013)
Several years ago the Basque Government supported the programming of the software ARKITSAS in order to provideall existing vessels with a specific software to calculate stability, cargo and longitudinal strength data. The ...
Effect of the photocatalytic activity of TiO2 on lignin depolymerization
(Elsevier, 2013-05)
Lignin is a good candidate for photocatalytic cracking due to the presence of hydroxyl groups. The photocatalytic cracking reaction involves TiO2 as heterogeneous catalyst.
In the present work lignin obtained by two ...
Diagnosing the traffic impact on roadside soils through a multianalytical data analysis of the concentration profiles of traffic-related elements
(2013-05-16)
The road traffic has become one of the most serious environmental problems in many cities and the main source of pollution of urban soils. To diagnose properly the magnitude of such impacts on roadside soils, eight urban ...
Design and implementation of a droop control in d-q frame for islanded microgrids
(The Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2013-09-01)
The droop control method is usually selected when several distributed generators (DGs) are connected in parallel forming an islanded microgrid. This is because of the advantages it offers such as flexibility, absence of ...
Duplicate and Circulating Frames Discard Methods for PRP and HSR (IEC62439-3)
(IEEE, 2013-11)
Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) and High-availability Seamless Redundancy (HSR), defined in the IEC62439-3 about high availability automation networks and proposed as reference network topologies for substation communication ...
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 ...
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 ...
Determining Flinders' bar correction by heeling the ship
(Spanish Society of Maritime Research (SEECMAR), 2013)
The aim of this article is to provide the compass adjuster with an innovative method of determining thelength of Flinders’ bar while the ship’s latitude remains unaltered. In this way the definitive compass ad-justment may ...
Fermentable sugars recovery from grape stalks for bioethanol production
(Elsevier, 2013-07-02)
[EN]Three different processes were investigated for the recovery of fermentable sugars from grape stalks:
autohydrolysis at 121 ºC before and after a pre-washing step and acid hydrolysis (2% H2SO4 w/w) after a
pre-washing ...
Application of Cognitive Techniques to Adaptive Routing for VANETs in City Environments
(Springer, 2013-09-29)
The evolution of smart vehicles has widened the application opportunities for vehicular ad hoc networks.
In this context, the routing issue is still one of the main challenges regarding the performance of the network.Although ...
