Enhanced force control using force estimation and nonlinearity compensation for the Universal Haptic Pantograph
(IEEE, 2015-12-17)
The design of a stable and robust force controller is one of the most important and difficult tasks in rehabilitation robotics. In previous works, the Universal Haptic Pantograph (UHP) was presented as an alternative to ...
Development of in situ non destructive analytical methodologies for the conservation diagnosis of urban built heritage
(2015-07-22)
Se desarrollan metodologías analíticas no destructivas para el diagnostico in situ del Patrimonio Construido afectado por factores ambientales. A lo largo del trabajo, la caracterización y severidad de daño sufrido por los ...
The Atomic Structure of the HIV-1 gp41 Transmembrane Domain and Its Connection to the Immunogenic Membrane-proximal External Region
(Elsevier, 2015-03-18)
The membrane-proximal external region (MPER) C-terminal segment and the transmembrane domain (TMD) of gp41 are involved in HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein-mediated fusion and modulation of immune responses during viral infection. ...
Enhanced reproducibility of SADI Web service workflows with Galaxy and Docker
(BMC, 2015-12-03)
Background: Semantic Web technologies have been widely applied in the life
sciences, for example by data providers like OpenLifeData and through Web
Services frameworks like SADI. The recently reported OpenLifeData2SADI
project ...
Quantitative evaluation of bias in PCR amplification and next-generation sequencing derived from metabarcoding samples
(Springer, 2015-01-11)
Unbiased identification of organisms by PCR reactions using universal primers followed by DNA sequencing assumes positive amplification. We used six universal loci spanning 48 plant species and quantified the bias at each ...
The CODATwins Project: The Cohort Description of Collaborative Project of Development of Anthropometrical Measures in Twins to Study Macro-Environmental Variation in Genetic and Environmental Effects on Anthropometric Traits
(2015-05-27)
For over 100 years, the genetics of human anthropometric traits has attracted scientific interest. In particular,
height and body mass index (BMI, calculated as kg/m2) have been under intensive genetic research.
However, ...
Strengthening masonry vaults with organic and inorganic composites: An experimental approach
(Elsevier, 2015-11-15)
Polymer-reinforced fibers are now commonly applied to buildings for structural retrofitting purposes. These materials add greater tensile strength to structures, at the expense of a slight increase in weight. However, they ...
A Strategy for the Management, Preservation, and Reutilization of Geographical Information Based on the Lifecycle of Geospatial Data: An Assessment and a Proposal Based on Experiences from Spain and Europe
(Taylor & Francis, 2015-12-22)
[EN] In recent years, there has been a growing recognition of the fact that the proper management of information has to include concern for its preservation and future re-use. This ambition is particularly significant for ...
