Parametric analysis of a packed bed thermal energy storage system
(AIP, 2017-06-17)
Even if the packed bed thermal energy storage concept has been introduced as a promising technology in the concentrated solar power field in the last years, its full deployment in commercial plants presents a clear improvement ...
Thermocatalytic conversion of lignin in an ethanol/formic acid medium with NiMo catalysts: role of the metal and acid sites
(Elsevier, 2017-11-15)
[EN] NiMo catalysts supported on different sulfated and non-sulfated aluminas and zirconias were studied for the catalytic conversion of lignin in a formic acid/ethanol medium. All the pre-reduced NiMo-support combinations ...
Tributyl citrate as an effective plasticizer for biodegradable polymers: effect of the plasticizer on the free volume, transport and mechanical properties
(Society of Chemical Industry. Wiley, 2018-06-16)
The effectiveness of tributyl citrate (TbC) as plasticizer for polylactide (PLLA) and poly(hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) was analyzed in order to improve the ductility of these polymers and make them good candidates for food ...
Optimization of 100 µm alginate-poly-L-lysine-alginate capsules for intravitreous administration
(Elsevier, 2011-09-24)
The field of cell microencapsulation is advancing rapidly. Particle size plays a critical role in terms of biocompatibility and limits decisively its applicability. Producing reduced size microcapsules involves broadening ...
Overcrowding detection in indoor events using scalable technologies
(Springer, 2017-02-17)
The increase in the number of large-scale events held indoors (i.e., conferences and business events) opens new opportunities for crowd monitoring and access controlling as a way to prevent risks and provide further ...
Optimization of planar mechanisms by using a minimum distance function
(Elsevier, 2019-04-10)
The paper examines the application of a general minimum distance error function to the
dimensional kinematic synthesis of bidimensional mechanisms. The minimum distance ap-
proach makes it possible to solve the problem ...

Package W2CWM2C: description, features and applications
(IEEE, 2014-11-01)
This article describes new graphical tools that help with the interpretation of wavelet correlation and cross-correlation analysis, in both bivariate and multivariate cases. We have created an R package called W2CWM2C with ...
PRP and HSR for High Availability Networks in Power Utility Automation: A Method for Redundant Frames Discarding
(IEEE, 2015-01-21)
Critical systems require zero recovery time when a failure occurs in a communications network. The soon to be implemented standard IEC 62439-3 defines the only two protocols, parallel redundancy protocol and high-availability ...
On the development and evolution of wear flats in microcrystalline sintered alumina grinding wheels.
(Elsevier, 2018-03-26)
Wheel wear is a critical issue for grinding process optimization. This is why it receives so much attentionboth from Academia and industry. The development of new generations of abrasive wheels requiresimproving the ...
