Experimental development and testing of low-cost scalable radiative cooling materials for building applications
(Elsevier, 2021-09-15)
Urban overheating has a serious impact on building energy consumption. Daytime radiative cooling materials are an interesting passive solution for refrigeration. However, their costs and complex manufacturing hinder their ...
Structural and Functional Network-Level Reorganization in the Coding of Auditory Motion Directions and Sound Source Locations in the Absence of Vision
(Jneurosci, 2022)
hMT+/V5 is a region in the middle occipitotemporal cortex that responds preferentially to visual motion in sighted people. In cases of early visual deprivation, hMT+/V5 enhances its response to moving sounds. Whether hMT+/V5 ...
Holm oak decline and mortality exacerbates drought effects on soil biogeochemical cycling and soil microbial communities across a climatic gradient
(Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 2020)
The extent to which the increasingly frequent episodes of drought-induced tree decline and mortality could alter key soil biogeochemical cycles is unclear. Understanding this connection between tree decline and mortality ...
Critical discussion of: “A farewell to glaciers: Ecosystem services loss in the Spanish Pyrenees”
(Journal of Environmental Management, 2020)
The Role of PK/PD Analysis in the Development and Evaluation of Antimicrobials
(MDPI, 2021-06-03)
Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) analysis has proved to be very useful to establish rational dosage regimens of antimicrobial agents in human and veterinary medicine. Actually, PK/PD studies are included in the ...
Gene Expression Profiling Reveals New Pathways and Genes Associated with Visna/Maedi Viral Disease
(MDPI, 2021-06-15)
Visna/Maedi virus (VMV) is a lentivirus that infects the cells of the monocyte/macrophage lineage in sheep, goats and wild ruminants. Infection with VMV causes a multisystemic inflammatory disorder, which includes pneumonia, ...
Physicochemical and Biological Performance of Aloe Vera-Incorporated Native Collagen Films
(MDPI, 2020-12-02)
Collagen was obtained from porcine skin by mechanical pretreatments with the aim of preserving the triple helix structure of native collagen, which was indirectly corroborated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and ...
Evolution of Microstructure during Isothermal Treatments of a Duplex-Austenitic 0.66C11.4Mn.9.9Al Low-Density Forging Steel and Effect on the Mechanical Properties
(MDPI, 2021-01-26)
In the last decades, low-density steels for forging have increasing interest in the automotive industry, and good mechanical properties are required for their real application. This paper describes the results obtained for ...
Iterative Learning Control and Gaussian Process Regression for Hydraulic Cushion Control
(Elsevier, 2020-07-17)
In this paper, we investigate on extending a feed-forward control scheme for the force control circuit of a hydraulic cushion with Gaussian Process nonlinear regression and Iterative Learning Control. Gaussian Processes ...
Length Absence of Spillover of Hydrogen Adsorbed on Small Palladium Clusters Anchored to Graphene Vacancies
(Elsevier, 2021-08-01)
Experimental evidence exists for the enhancement of the hydrogen storage capacity of porous carbons when these materials are doped with metal nanoparticles. One of the most studied dopants is palladium. Dissociation of the ...
