Acoustic analysis of EFL speech production corpora according to the Speech Learning Model
(2020-05-20)
It is widely accepted that L1 influences the acquisition of L2 phonology during Second Language Acquisition. Models such as the Speech Learning Model (SLM) have tried to explain this process by defining bi-directional ...
The desiccation tolerance through a unicellular and chlorophyllous fern spore
(2020-01-08)
La presente tesis, por un lado, establece un protocolo universal para definir la tolerancia a la desecación en tejidos fotosintéticos y posteriormente se centra indagar las características ecofisiológicas que posibilitan ...
Advances in Microtechnology for Improved Cytotoxicity Assessment
(Frontiers Media, 2020-11-20)
In vitro cytotoxicity testing is essential in the pharmaceutical and environmental industry to study the effects of potential harmful compounds for human health. Classical assays present several disadvantages: they are ...
A Rubric to Assess and Improve Technical Writing in Undergraduate Engineering Courses
(MDPI, 2021-03-24)
Although there is consensus in the literature that writing skills are important in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) studies, they are often neglected. However, some efforts have been made to correct ...
Annual Weedy Species of Erigeron in the Northern Iberian Peninsula: a Review
(Universidad Complutense de Madrid, 2021)
A revision of the alien Erigeron species formerly included in Conyza found in the northern Iberian Peninsula is presented. A close examination of numerous specimens collected by the authors as well as voucher specimens ...
Spanish Rhythm Association member´s perspectives on cardiac implantable electronic device reuse in low- and middle-income countries
(Springer, 2022-07-15)
Background: Postmortem explanted cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) from developed countries could provide patients unable to afford new devices in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) a treatment they lack. ...
The role of state-kinds in the morphosemantics of Spanish deadjectival nominalizations
(2021-02-26)
a presente tesis doctoral aborda el estudio de las nominalizaciones deadjetivales (v.g. belleza, altura) en español. Sobre la base del modelo de semántica formal de Heim y Kratzer (1998), combinado con un aparato ...
Elucidating the role of shape anisotropy infaceted magnetic nanoparticles using biogenicmagnetosomes as a model
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-08-14)
Shape anisotropy is of primary importance to understand the magnetic behavior of nanoparticles, but a rigorous analysis in polyhedral morphologies is missing. In this work, a model based on finite element techniques has ...
Magnetosomes could be protective shields against metal stress in magnetotactic bacteria
(Nature, 2020-07)
Magnetotactic bacteria are aquatic microorganisms with the ability to biomineralise membrane-enclosed magnetic nanoparticles, called magnetosomes. These magnetosomes are arranged into a chain that behaves as a magnetic ...
Microfluidic chip with pillar arrays for controlled production and observation of lipid membrane nanotubes
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-08-07)
Lipid membrane nanotubes (NTs) are a widespread template forin vitrostudies of cellular processes happening at high membrane curvature. Traditionally NTs are manufactured one by one, using sophisticated membrane ...
