Well-Being through workplace health promotion interventions by European enterprises
(Elsevier, 2022-07)
Well-being and in particular the differences that may exist in the adopted workplace interventions by European enterprises have not yet been addressed in depth by the literature. The objective of this article is to make a ...
Development of iron-rich microwires with a unique combination of magnetic properties
(Elsevier, 2021-04)
We studied the influence of post-processing on magnetic properties of Fe-rich microwires and defined the routes to obtain Fe-rich cost-effective microwires with unique combination of magnetic properties allowing observation ...
Review of protection systems for multi-terminal high voltage direct current grids
(Elsevier, 2021-07)
Given the current evolution of Voltage Source Converters (VSC), Multi-Terminal High Voltage Direct Current (MTDC) grids are now becoming a real possibility. Still, some technical issues have to be addressed. The protection ...
Environmental balance of the high speed rail network in Spain: A Life Cycle Assessment approach
(Elsevier, 2021-12)
Spain has the world's second longest network of high speed rail lines built and in service. High-Speed Rail (HSR) is usually presented as a sustainable means of transport with huge potential to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) ...
Effect of the biobased polyols chemical structure on high performance thermoset polyurethane properties
(Elsevier, 2022-12)
The sustainability of the polymeric materials has become a fundamental challenge; therefore, the development of new biobased formulations has gained increasing interest. Thermoset polyurethanes (PURs) present high performance ...
Achievements and challenges in baccalaureate student nurses' preparation for evidence-based nursing practice: A mixed methods study
(Elsevier, 2022-05)
Background
Evidence-based nursing (EBN) implementation is still limited. The effect of the incorporation of this competence into the whole nursing curricula as a cross-cutting topic has not yet been assessed.
Objective
This ...
A MILP optimization method for energy renovation of residential urban areas: Towards Zero Energy Districts
(Elsevier, 2021-05)
The nearly Zero Energy Building concept should be adopted in the renovation of existing buildings and actions upscaled and applied to larger and larger urban areas. In this context, this paper presents an optimization ...
Numerical optimization based control design for a ferromagnetic shape memory alloy actuator
(Elsevier, 2021-11)
Ferromagnetic shape memory alloys (FSMA) based actuators are able to get very good precision, allowing, indeed, under nanometer positioning applications. To get those precisions, a good controller is needed, and different ...
Sex bias in celiac disease: XWAS and monocyte eQTLs in women identify TMEM187 as a functional candidate gene
(BMC, 2023-12)
Background
Celiac disease (CeD) is an immune-mediated disorder that develops in genetically predisposed individuals upon gluten consumption. HLA risk alleles explain 40% of the genetic component of CeD, so there have ...
Structural and functional insights into the delivery of a bacterial Rhs pore-forming toxin to the membrane
(Nature, 2023-11)
Bacterial competition is a significant driver of toxin polymorphism, which allows continual compensatory evolution between toxins and the resistance developed to overcome their activity. Bacterial Rearrangement hot spot ...
