Isotope analyses to explore diet and mobility in a medieval Muslim population at Tauste (NE Spain)
(Public Library Science, 2017-05-04)
The Islamic necropolis discovered in Tauste (Zaragoza, Spain) is the only evidence that a large Muslim community lived in the area between the 8th and 10th centuries. A multi-isotope approach has been used to investigate ...
SREBP-2-driven transcriptional activation of human SND1 oncogene
(Impact Journals LLC, 2017-12-08)
Upregulation of Staphylococcal nuclease and tudor domain containing 1 (SND1) is linked to cancer progression and metastatic spread. Increasing evidence indicates that SND1 plays a role in lipid homeostasis. Recently, it ...
Goal-Oriented p-Adaptivity using Unconventional Error Representations for a 1D Steady State Convection-Diffusion Problem
(Elsevier, 2017)
This work proposes the use of an alternative error representation for Goal-Oriented Adaptivity (GOA) in context of steady state convection dominated diffusion problems. It introduces an arbitrary operator for the computation ...
Optimally refined isogeometric analysis
(Elsevier, 2017)
Performance of direct solvers strongly depends upon the employed discretization method. In particular, it is possible to improve the performance of solving Isogeometric Analysis (IGA) discretizations by introducing multiple ...
Binormal Motion of Curves with Constant Torsion in 3-Spaces
(Hindawi, 2017)
We study curve motion by the binormal flow with curvature and torsion depending velocity and sweeping out immersed surfaces. Using the Gauss-Codazzi equations, we obtain filaments evolving with constant torsion which arise ...
ICCS 2017 Workshop on Agent-Based Simulations, Adaptive Algorithms and Solvers
(Elsevier, 2017)
This workshop seeks to integrate results from different domains of computer science, computational science, and mathematics. We welcome simulation papers, either hard simulations using finite element or finite difference ...
Upgrading the Performance of Cholesteric Liquid Crystal Lasers: Improvement Margins and Limitations
(MDPI, 2017)
The topic of cholesteric-liquid-crystal lasers is a rapidly expanding research area in the field of soft-matter photonics. The increasing interest in this field is due to the high versatility that these lasers may possibly ...
Pyrolysis and in-line catalytic steam reforming of biomass and biomass/Plastic mixtures for H2 production
(2017-05-17)
En esta tesis doctoral se ha estudiado la producción de H2 a partir de biomasa y mezclas biomasa/plásticomediante un proceso con dos etapas en serie, la primera de pirólisis rápida (reactor spouted bed cónico), yla segunda ...
Goal-oriented adaptivity using unconventional error representations
(2017-09-01)
In Goal-Oriented Adaptivity (GOA), the error in the Quantity of Interest (QoI) is represented using the error functions of the direct and adjoint problems. This error representation is subsequently bounded above by ...
Emulsion polymerization of superhydrophobic monomers
(2017-09-25)
El objetivo principal de esta tesis fue desarrollar una metodología general para polimerizar monómeros superhidrófobos mediante polimerización en emulsión, evitando el uso de disolventes y etapas de miniemulsificación de ...
