Breed effect on quality veal production in mountain areas: Emphasis on meat
(Elsevier, 2012)
This study was designed to compare the quality of veal produced from ‘Tudanca x Charolais’ cross (n=6) and Limousin (n=6) breeds when allowed to feed freely on mountain pastures and suckle naturally from birth to 7 months ...
Dynamics of pneumococcal nasopharyngeal carriage in healthy children attending a day care center in northern Spain. Influence of detection techniques on the results
(BioMed Central, 2012-03-22)
Background: Pneumococcal nasopharyngeal carriage precedes invasive infection and is the source for dissemination of the disease. Differences in sampling methodology, isolation or identification techniques, as well as the ...
Electronic properties of graphene grain boundaries
(IOP Publishing, 2014-08-08)
Grain boundaries and defect lines in graphene are intensively studied for their novel electronic and magnetic properties. However, there is not a complete comprehension of the appearance of localized states along these ...
A Delphi Process to Optimize Quality and Performance of Drug Evaluation in Neonates
(Public Library Science, 2014-09-11)
Background: Neonatal trials remain difficult to conduct for several reasons: in particular the need for study sites to have an existing infrastructure in place, with trained investigators and validated quality procedures ...
Results on proximal and generalized weak proximal contractions including the case of iteration-dependent range sets
(Springer International Publishing, 2014-07-18)
This paper presents some further results on proximal and asymptotic proximal contractions and on a class of generalized weak proximal contractions in metric spaces. The generalizations are stated for non-self-mappings of ...
The prevalence of diabetes-related complications and multimorbidity in the population with type 2 diabetes mellitus in the Basque Country
(Biomed Central, 2014-10-10)
Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is associated with a diverse range of pathologies. The aim of the study was to determine the incidence of diabetes-related complications, the prevalence of coexistent chronic conditions ...
A Real-Time Sliding Mode Control for a Wind Energy System Based on a Doubly Fed Induction Generator
(MDPI, 2014-10)
In this paper, a real time sliding mode control scheme for a variable speed wind turbine that incorporates a doubly feed induction generator is described. In this design, the so-called vector control theory is applied, in ...
Coincidence point theorems in quasi-metric spaces without assuming the mixed monotone property and consequences in G-metric spaces
(Springer International Publishing, 2014-09)
In this paper, we present some coincidence point theorems in the setting of quasi-metric spaces that can be applied to operators which not necessarily have the mixed monotone property. As a consequence, we particularize ...
Fixed and Best Proximity Points of Cyclic Jointly Accretive and Contractive Self-Mappings
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2012)
p(>= 2)-cyclic and contractive self-mappings on a set of subsets of a metric space which are simultaneously accretive on the whole metric space are investigated. The joint fulfilment of the p-cyclic contractiveness and ...
Some Results on Fixed and Best Proximity Points of Multivalued
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2013)
This paper is devoted to investigate the fixed points and best proximity points of multivalued cyclic self-mappings on a set of subsets of complete metric spaces endowed with a partial order under a generalized contractive ...
