Predictive Dynamic Window Approach Development with Artificial Neural Fuzzy Inference Improvement
(MDPI, 2019-08-26)
The aim of this paper is to improve the dynamic window approach algorithm for mobile robots by implementing a prediction window with a fuzzy inference system to adapt to fixed parameters, depending on the surrounding ...
Experimental Evaluation of Perfluorocarbon Aerosol Generation with Two Novel Nebulizer Prototypes
(MDPI, 2019-01-05)
The potential of non-invasive ventilation procedures and new minimally invasive techniques has resulted in the research of alternative approaches as the aerosolization for the treatment of respiratory distress syndrome ...
Computational Modeling of Gurney Flaps and Microtabs by POD Method
(MDPI, 2018-08)
Gurney flaps (GFs) and microtabs (MTs) are two of the most frequently used passive flow control devices on wind turbines. They are small tabs situated close to the airfoil trailing edge and normal to the surface. A study ...
Targeting mTOR as a Therapeutic Approach in Medulloblastoma
(MDPI, 2018-07)
Mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a master signaling pathway that regulates organismal growth and homeostasis, because of its implication in protein and lipid synthesis, and in the control of the cell cycle and the ...
Happiness vs. Wellness During the Recovery Process in High Performance Sport

Controlling the Isothermal Crystallization of Isodimorphic PBS-ran-PCL Random Copolymers by Varying Composition and Supercooling
(MDPI, 2019-12-20)
In this work, we study for the first time, the isothermal crystallization behavior of isodimorphic random poly(butylene succinate)-ran-poly(ε-caprolactone) copolyesters, PBS-ran-PCL, previously synthesized by us. We perform ...
Effectiveness of the physical activity intervention program in the PREDIMED-Plus study: a randomized controlled trial
(Biomed Central, 2018-11-13)
BackgroundThe development and implementation of effective physical activity (PA) intervention programs is challenging, particularly in older adults. After the first year of the intervention program used in the ongoing ...
Profiles of Problematic Internet Use and Its Impact on Adolescents' Health-Related Quality of Life
(MDPI, 2019-10-13)
The internet has been a breakthrough for adolescents in many ways, but its use can also become dysfunctional and problematic, leading to consequences for personal well-being. The main objective is to analyze profiles related ...
Fluvial geomorphological dynamics and land use changes: impact on the organic carbon stocks of soil and sediment
(Bosque, 2019)
The drainage basin of the Turrilla river (SE of Spain) went through important land cover changes since 1950s; from mainly an agrarian scenario in 1956 to other depopulated and forested in 2015. This study analyzes the ...
Quantifying the services of natural and built infrastructure in the context of climate change: The case of the Tana River Basin, Kenya
(IWMI Research Report, 2019)
A study was conducted to explore the synergies and trade-offs between built and natural infrastructure in the Tana River Basin. A simple framework for better understanding the interactions and co-dependencies between ...
