Males and females in EFL task-based interaction: does gender have an impact on LREs?
(Servicio de Publicaciones de la Universidad de Vigo, 2015)
This study analyzes the impact of gender on the language learning opportunities
available to Spanish EFL learners during task-based interaction. These learners worked
in mixed and matched gender dyads on four collaborative ...
Light traffic behavior under the power-of-two load balancing strategy: The case of heterogeneous servers
(Elsevier, 2017-08-22)
We consider a multi-server queueing system under the power-of-two policy with Poisson
job arrivals, heterogeneous servers and a general job requirement distribution; each server
operates under the first-come first-serve ...
Lignin oxidation and depolymerisation in ionic liquids
(RSC, 2015-09)
The depolymerisation of lignin directly in the black liquor was studied, comparing two ionic liquids as extracting solvents (butylimidazolium hydrogen sulphate and triethylammonium hydrogen sulphate), under oxidising ...
LRRK2 Expression is Deregulated in Fibroblasts and Neurons from Parkinson Patients with Mutations in PINK1
(Springer, 2018)
Mutations in PINK1 (PARK6), a serine/threonine kinase involved in mitochondrial homeostasis, are associated with early onset Parkinson's disease. Fibroblasts from Parkinson's disease patients with compound heterozygous ...
Experimental and numerical modeling of basalt textile reinforced mortar behavior under uniaxial tensile stress
(Elsevier, 2014-03-01)
During the last years several projects and studies have improved the knowledge about textile reinforced mortar (TRM) technology. TRM has already been used in strengthening masonry and reinforced concrete structural elements ...
Instantaneous powder flux regulation system for Laser Metal Deposition
(Elsevier, 2017-09-04)
A new control system for regulating the powder flux during the laser metal deposition process (LMD) has been designed, developed and validated. The powder regulation system is based on a solenoid, which is coupled to the ...
National institutions, stakeholder engagement, and firms' environmental, social, and governance performance
(Wiley, 2018)
El trabajo estudia la influencia de las distintas instituciones nacionales en los resultados empresariales en materia medioambiental, social y de gobernanza (ESG) a través del enfoque de las variedades de los sistemas ...
Measurement Methodology for Determining the Optimal Frequency Domain Configuration to Accurately Record WiFi Exposure Levels
(IEEE, 2018-07-04)
[EN] Radiofrequency fields are usually measured in order to be compared with electromagnetic exposure limits defined by international standardization organizations with the aim of preserving the human health. However, in ...
Liquefaction of Kraft lignin using polyhydric alcohols and organic acids as catalysts for sustainable polyols production
(Elsevier, 2019)
[EN]In this work, three different organic acid catalysts, (acetic acid, lactic acid and citric acid), are proposed as an
alternative to common catalysts used in the liquefaction process of Kraft lignin. These organic acids ...
Irreversible versus repairable membrane poration: differences in permeabilization elicited by Bordetella Adenylate Cyclase Toxin and its hemolysin domain in macrophages
(FEBS Press, 2019-10-24)
Rapid plasma membrane repair in response to pore-forming toxins is crucial for cell survival, but the molecular mechanisms employed by eukaryotic nucleated cells to maintain membrane integrity and the specificities of such ...
