Testing a vaccine candidate against Hepatitis C virus designed by combinatorial optimization
(Nature, 2023)
This paper presents a new procedure for vaccine design against highly variable viruses such as Hepatitis C. The procedure uses an optimization algorithm to design vaccines that maximize the coverage of epitopes across ...
Diagnosis of the health status of mooring systems for floating offshore wind turbines using autoencoders
(Elsevier, 2023-11)
Floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) show promise in terms of energy production, availability, and sustainability, but remain unprofitable due to high maintenance costs. This work proposes a deep learning algorithm to ...
Kinetic modeling and reactor design of the direct synthesis of dimethyl ether for CO2 valorization. A review
(Elsevier, 2022-08-04)
The direct synthesis of dimethyl ether (DME) is considered one of the most attractive routes for valorizing CO2 and syngas on a large scale. DME has a high cetane number and its properties are similar to those of liquefied ...
2D PIV/PTV–3D uRANS RSM Investigation on the Combined Effect of Iron Filings Filtering Techniques in a Backward Facing Step Flow
(Springer, 2023-03)
The presence of suspended particles in liquid fluids is one of the main reasons for hydraulic system failure. Metallic impurities in particular increase the presence of toxic substances in wastewater; therefore, it is vital ...
Molecular confirmation of pearl formation in arctic mussels (Mytilus edulis) caused by Gymnophallus bursicola (Odhner 1900) metacercariae
(Cambridge University Press, 2023-09)
In recent field studies, suspected gymnophallid metacercariae were histologically located in the mantle of mussels from the Norwegian Sea. Mussels from the sites in which that infection was detected also presented abnormally ...
Model validation of a packed bed LTA membrane reactor for the direct synthesis of DME from CO/CO2
(2020-10-16)
A model for simulating the direct synthesis of dimethyl ether (DME) in a packed bed membrane reactor (PBMR) has been validated, using a LTA zeolite hydrophilic membrane in a lab-scale reaction equipment. In the model, ...
ADITU: A mesh-free formulation for the solution of Helmholtz equation in bounded and unbounded domains
(Elsevier, 2022-06-01)
This work describes a mesh-free collocation formulation for the acoustic fluid–fluid coupling among
non-homogeneous bounded and unbounded fluid domains. The proposed formulations use series
of functions that are generated ...
Lessons learned from poor governance: A comparison of the EU strategies for exiting the crises of 2008 and 2020
(Elsevier, 2023-12)
This paper analyses the EU's strategy for recovering from the economic and social consequences of the pandemic, of which the NextGenerationEU temporary stimulus package forms part. That strategy is compared to the diametrically ...
Geochemical characterization of the Martian analogues Enekuri and Fruiz, located in the Basque-Cantabrian Basin, by spectroscopic techniques
(Elsevier, 2023-12)
This work presents the geochemical characterization of two Martian analogues located in the Basque-Cantabrian Basin: Enekuri and Fruiz. In contrast to previous works carried out on the coastline analogues Meñakoz and ...
Waste-to-energy risk perception typology: health, politics and environmental impacts
(Taylor & Francis, 2023)
Where strategies to reduce and recycle urban solid waste are insufficient, waste incineration is proposed as second-best management. Waste-to-energy facilities often raise remarkable public controversy, which the ...
