Vanadium Redox Flow Batteries: A Review Oriented to Fluid-Dynamic Optimization
(MDPI, 2020-12-31)
Large-scale energy storage systems (ESS) are nowadays growing in popularity due to the increase in the energy production by renewable energy sources, which in general have a random intermittent nature. Currently, several ...
Computational Methods for Modelling and Optimization of Flow Control Devices
(MDPI, 2020-07-19)
Over the last few years, the advances in size and weight for wind turbines have led to the development of flow control devices. The current work presents an innovative method to model flow control devices based on a cell-set ...
A Great Step Forward. Lithic Raw Material Procurement and Management among Palaeolithic Hunter -Gatherers in the Basque Crossroads
(School of History, Classics and Archaeology, University of Edinburgh, 2020)
This paper is divided into three sections. The first section describes the historiographic evolution of the study of prehistoric lithic raw materials in the Basque Crossroads (in the north of the Iberian Peninsula) during ...
A Machine Learning Approach to Perform Physical Activity Classification Using a Sensorized Crutch Tip
(IEEE, 2020-11-24)
[EN] In recent years, interest in monitoring Physical Activity (PA) has increased due to its positive effect on health. New technological devices have been proposed for this purpose, mainly focused on sports, which include ...
A Fail-Operational Control Architecture Approach and Dead-Reckoning Strategy in Case of Positioning Failures
(MDPI, 2020-01-13)
[EN] Presently, in the event of a failure in Automated Driving Systems, control architectures rely on hardware redundancies over software solutions to assure reliability or wait for human interaction in takeover requests ...
Capacity and Impedance Estimation by Analysing and Modeling in Real Time Incremental Capacity Curves
(MDPI, 2020-09-16)
The estimation of lithium ion capacity fade and impedance rise on real application is always
a challenging work due to the associated complexity. This work envisages the study of the battery
charging profile indicators ...
(Re)translation and Reception of Neologisms in Science Fiction: A Methodological Proposal
(UCOPress, 2020-08-02)
This paper proposes a new methodology for studying neologismsin the translation and retranslation of the science fiction novel Altered Carbon (Richard Morgan,2001), its adaptation as a TV series by Netflix ...
Physical Activity and Academic Performance: Genetic and Environmental Associations
(Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, 2020-02)
Introduction:
Physical activity and academic performance are believed to be associated. Though both traits are partially heritable, it remains unclear
whether these traits also share a genetic and/or environmental ...
Development and Participation: Whose Participation? A Critical Analysis of the UNDP’s Participatory Research Methods
(Springer Nature, 2020-05-20)
Participatory development became a new development orthodoxy during the early 1990s. However, many researchers have criticised that its implementation often fails to live up to its original transformative roots. Since 1992, ...
Cholesterol Constrains the Antigenic Configuration of the Membrane-Proximal Neutralizing HIV-1 Epitope
(ACS, 2020-06-25)
The envelope glycoprotein (Env) enables HIV-1 cell entry through fusion of host-cell and viral membranes induced by the transmembrane subunit gp41. Antibodies targeting the C-terminal sequence of the membrane-proximal ...
