Metallic Glass/PVDF Magnetoelectric Laminates for Resonant Sensors and Actuators: A Review
(MDPI, 2017-05-31)
Among magnetoelectric (ME) heterostructures, ME laminates of the type Metglas-like/PVDF (magnetostrictive+piezoelectric constituents) have shown the highest induced ME voltages, usually detected at the magnetoelastic ...
Current guidelines review for the preservation of plastics emitters of gaseous pollutants in Contemporary Art museums
(Grupo Español de Conservación, 2017-07-04)
[EN] Plastic contemporary artworks preservation is being a research object for the latter years. Even though so, gaseous pollutants emissions problem has not been studied in depth from the conservation-preservation field. ...

El presente estudio planteó la identificación y selección de escuelas de Baja California con alta y baja eficacia a partir de los puntajes de ENLACE y pruebas de contexto. Se obtuvo una muestra representativa de 85 escuelas ...
Contribution to Energy Management of the Main Standards for Environmental Management Systems: The Case of ISO 14001 and EMAS
(MDPI, 2017-11-01)
The adoption of Energy Management Systems (EnMSs) based on international standards has gained momentum since the ISO 50001 standard was launched in 2011. Before that, the potential to improve the energy management with ...
The relationship between emotional intelligence, self-determined motivation and performance in canoeists
(Universidad de Alicante, 2017)
The results of recent studies indicate that athletes differ in the degree in which they perceive, process and regulate their emotions. The present study aims to utilize these findings in order to examine if self-determined ...
Notch/Wnt Cross-Signalling Regulates Stemness Of Dental Pulp Stem Cells Through Expression Of Neural Crest And Core Pluripotency Factors
(AO Research Institute Davos-Ari, 2017-07)
Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) from adult teeth express neural crest (NC) markers together with core transcriptional factors associated with stem cell pluripotency, such as Oct4a, Sox2, c-Myc, Rex1, Stella/Dppa3, Ssea1/Fut4, ...
Enhanced Flexibility and Reusability through State Machine-Based Architectures for Multisensor Intelligent Robotics
(MDPI, 2017-05-31)
This paper presents a state machine-based architecture, which enhances the flexibility and reusability of industrial robots, more concretely dual-arm multisensor robots. The proposed architecture, in addition to allowing ...
Time resolved amplified FRET identifies protein kinase B activation state as a marker for poor prognosis in clear cell renal cell carcinoma
(Elsevier, 2017-12)
Purpose: Clear cell Renal Cell Carcinomas (ccRCC), the largest group of renal tumours, are resistant to classical therapies. The determination of the functional state of actionable biomarkers for the assessment of these ...
Prevention of diabetes in overweight/obese children through a family based intervention program including supervised exercise (PREDIKID project): study protocol for a randomized controlled trial
(Biomed Central, 2017-08-10)
Background: The global pandemic of obesity has led to an increased risk for prediabetes and type-2 diabetes (T2D). The aims of the current project are: (1) to evaluate the effect of a 22-week family based intervention ...
Efficient implementation of symplectic implicit Runge-Kutta schemes with simplified Newton iterations
(2017-03-30)
We are concerned with the efficient implementation of symplectic
implicit Runge-Kutta (IRK) methods applied to systems of (non-necessarily
Hamiltonian) ordinary differential equations by means of Newton-like iterations. ...
