Closing the loop: Waste valorisation from vegetal sources to develop fruit active films
(Elsevier, 2024-07)
Cellulose-rich residue after agar extraction was incorporated into gelatin film forming formulations in order to revalorize it and improve film properties. This revalorized cellulose was compared with the commercial sodium ...
Yoghurt standardization using real-time NIR prediction of milk fat and protein content
(Elsevier, 2024-04)
A system based on near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy has been developed for the in-line control of the composition of the milk used as raw material for yoghurt production to control the content of protein and fat in the final ...
The Role of Chest Compressions on Ventilation during Advanced Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation
(MDPI, 2023-11-03)
There is growing interest in the quality of manual ventilation during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), but accurate assessment of ventilation parameters remains a challenge. Waveform capnography is currently the reference ...
Cardiac output estimation using ballistocardiography: a feasibility study in healthy subjects
(Nature, 2024)
There is no reliable automated non-invasive solution for monitoring circulation and guiding treatment in prehospital emergency medicine. Cardiac output (CO) monitoring might provide a solution, but CO monitors are not ...
Characterization of mechanical properties of adult chests during pre-hospital manual chest compressions through a simple viscoelastic model
(Elsevier, 2023-12)
Aim
The purpose of this study was to develop a simple viscoelastic model to characterize the mechanical properties of chests during manual chest compressions in pre-hospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
Metho ...
A Hybrid Control Approach for the Swing Free Transportation of a Double Pendulum with a Quadrotor
(MDPI, 2021-06-13)
In this article, a control strategy approach is proposed for a system consisting of a quadrotor transporting a double pendulum. In our case, we attempt to achieve a swing free transportation of the pendulum, while the ...
Review of Aerial Transportation of Suspended-Cable Payloads with Quadrotors
(MDPI, 2024-01-25)
Payload transportation and manipulation by rotorcraft drones are receiving a lot of attention from the military, industrial and logistics research areas. The interactions between the UAV and the payload, plus the means of ...
Spanish vs USA cohort comparison of prehospital trauma scores to predict short-term mortality
(Elsevier, 2024-05)
Background
This study aimed to evaluate three prehospital early warning scores (EWSs): RTS, MGAP and MREMS, to predict short-term mortality in acute life-threatening trauma and injury/illness by comparing United States ...
Metrics of impulsiveness of manual chest compressions for out-of-hospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation
(Elsevier, 2024-04)
Aim
Propose new metrics of impulsiveness of manual chest compressions (CCs) that account for shape and duration, separate the characteristics of the compressive part of the CC cycle from those of the recoil part, and ...
Exploring chemical reactions to enhance thermal and dispersion stability of kraft and organosolv lignin
(Elsevier, 2024-04)
Lignin has been overlooked and used as a waste for long due to its complex and partially hydrophobic structure. Many efforts have been carried out to overcome these deficiencies and apply it as a high-value product, which ...
