Video Image Enhancement and Machine Learning Pipeline for Underwater Animal Detection and Classification at Cabled Observatories
(MDPI, 2020-01-28)
An understanding of marine ecosystems and their biodiversity is relevant to sustainable use of the goods and services they offer. Since marine areas host complex ecosystems, it is important to develop spatially widespread ...
Gender and agency in the political learning of contentious activism. Reviewing activist models of young people in the new political cycle in the Basque Country
(Taylor and Francis, 2022-10-13)
The reproduction of gender order in young people’s learning of counter-hegemonic contentious activism may seem a contradiction in a political field seeking to transform the social order and help empower its activists. A ...
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 ...
Delamination Fracture Behavior of Unidirectional Carbon Reinforced Composites Applied to Wind Turbine Blades
(MDPI, 2021-01-27)
One of the materials that is used widely for wind turbine blade manufacturing are fiber-reinforced composites. Although glass fiber reinforcement is the most used in wind turbine blades, the use of carbon fiber allows ...
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 review on the valorization of CO2. Focusing on the thermodynamics and catalyst design studies of the direct synthesis of dimethyl ether
(Elsevier, 2022-08)
The direct synthesis of dimethyl ether (DME) on bifunctional catalysts is highly attractive for valorizing CO2 and syngas derived from biomass gasification and is a key process to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. DME economy ...
Explaining Public-Private Partnership Projects through Political Factors: An Assessment of Developing Countries
(Sage, 2021-09-13)
This paper analyses the effect of political factors on the use of PPPs in developing countries. According to a sample of 80 low- and middle-income countries over the period 1995-2017, our findings suggest that PPP projects ...
Analysing the link between corruption and PPPs in infrastructure projects: an empirical assessment in developing countries
(Taylor & Francis, 2021-10-21)
This study analyses the relationship between Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) and corruption. To do this, several econometric analyses were developed using a sample of 92 low- and middle-income countries over the period ...
Effect of privatisation on income inequality: A European analysis
(Springer Nature, 2020-06-15)
This study analyses the link between privatisation reforms and income inequality on a sample of 25 European countries between 2003 and 2013. Previous literature has related privatisations with the level of poverty, welfare, ...
Conditions for the joint conversion of CO2 and syngas in the direct synthesis of light olefins using In2O3−ZrO2/SAPO-34 catalyst
(ACS, 2021-11-09)
The conditions for promoting the joint conversion of CO2 and syngas in the direct synthesis of light olefins have been studied. In addition, given the relevance for the viability of the process, the stability of the ...
