Cosmological Perturbations in Phantom Dark Energy Models
(MDPI, 2017-03-06)
The CDM paradigm, characterised by a constant equation of state w = -1 for dark energy, is the model that better fits observations. However, the same observations strongly support the possibility of a dark energy content ...
Formation of Surface and Quantum-Well States in Ultra Thin Pt Films on the Au(111) Surface
(MDPI, 2017-12-09)
The electronic structure of the Pt/Au(111) heterostructures with a number of Pt monolayers n ranging from one to three is studied in the density-functional-theory framework. The calculations demonstrate that the deposition ...
The Mimetic Born-Infeld Gravity: The Primordial Cosmos and Spherically Symmetric Solutions
(MDPI, 2017-11-27)
The Eddington-inspired-Born-Infeld (EiBI) model is reformulated within the mimetic approach. In the presence of a mimetic field, the model contains non-trivial vacuum solutions. We study a realistic primordial vacuum ...
Ab-initio theoretical study of electronic excitations and optical properties in nanostructures
(2017-07-21)
La miniaturización de los dispositivos electrónicos para la transferencia de información y procesado de señales ha impulsado el estudio de las propiedades electrónicas y la dinámica de excitaciones electrónicas en ...
1st International Conference on Engineering Education for the XXI Century – New competences on Engineering Education in the area of sustainability and university social responsibility
(Servicio Editorial de la Universidad del País Vasco/Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatearen Argitalpen Zerbitzua, 2017)
The conference is co-organised by the Jaume I University in Castellón (UJI) and the University of the Basque Country (UPV-EHU) and is intended as a forum for the exchange of ideas, opinions and experiences and debate on ...
Heroes gone Psycho: interrogational torture in post-9/11 Television Fiction
(2017-09-07)
This dissertation analyzes the recurrent presence of ¿torturer-heroes¿ in post-9/11 television series and tries to ascertain whether these shows serve the agenda of legitimizing the use of interrogational torture that was ...
Designing multifunctional pigments for an improved energy efficiency in buildings
(Elsevier, 2017-07-15)
Materials science offers solutions that when are combined can offer important energy savings in the building sector. In this study, high reflectance coating and thermal storage capacity are combined with the aim of improving ...
Doomsdays in a modified theory of gravity: a classical and a quantum approach
(Elsevier, 2017-09-10)
By far cosmology is one of the most exciting subject to study, even more so with the current bulk of observations we have at hand. These observations might indicate different kinds of doomsdays, if dark energy follows ...
Feasibility of mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis Lmk.) aquaculture in the open waters of SE Bay of Biscay (Basque Country)
(2017-10-10)
Etorkizunean aurreikusten den giza populazioaren hazkundeak elikagaien ekoizpena handitzea eskatzen du eta bereziki, animali jatorrizko proteinen ekoizpena. Mytilus galloprovincialis Lmk. aukera naturala da Bizkaiko Golko ...
Preparation of Nanocomposites of Poly(ε-caprolactone) and Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes by Ultrasound Micro-Molding. Influence of Nanotubes on Melting and Crystallization
(MDPI, 2017-08)
Ultrasound micro-molding technology was successfully applied to prepare nanocomposites based on a poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL) matrix and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). Optimization of processing parameters ...
