Photonic Low Cost Micro-Sensor for in-Line Wear Particle Detection in Flowing Lube Oils
(MDPI, 2017-03)
The presence of microscopic particles in suspension in industrial fluids is often an early warning of latent or imminent failures in the equipment or processes where they are being used. This manuscript describes work ...
Lack of Additive Effects of Resveratrol and Energy Restriction in the Treatment of Hepatic Steatosis in Rats
(MDPI, 2017-07)
The aims of the present study were to analyze the effect of resveratrol on liver steatosis in obese rats, to compare the effects induced by resveratrol and energy restriction and to research potential additive effects. ...
Diferencias en el uso de estrategias en el aprendizaje de las matemáticas en enseñanza secundaria según el sexo
(Instituto de Educación Universiad ORT Uruguay, 2017-06)
Las estrategias de aprendizaje fomentan la autonomía y la autorregulación en los procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje. Dichas estrategias adquieren sentido dentro de una concepción del aprendizaje como proceso constructivo ...

Energy Conservation in an Office Building Using an Enhanced Blind System Control
(MDPI, 2017-02)
The two spaces office module is usually considered as a representative case-study to analyse the energetic improvement in office buildings. In this kind of buildings, the use of a model predictive control (MPC) scheme for ...
Off-stage ecosystem service burdens: A blind spot for global sustainability
(IOP Publishing, 2017-07)
The connected nature of social-ecological systems has never been more apparent than in today's globalized world. The ecosystem service framework and associated ecosystem assessments aim to better inform the science-policy ...
Optical Tip Clearance Measurements as a Tool for Rotating Disk Characterization
(MDPI, 2017-01)
An experimental investigation on the vibrational behavior of a rotating disk by means of three optical fiber sensors is presented. The disk, which is a scale model of the real disk of an aircraft engine, was assembled in ...
Photoactive Nanomaterials Inspired by Nature: LTL Zeolite Doped with Laser Dyes as Artificial Light Harvesting Systems
(MDPI, 2017-05)
The herein reported work describes the development of hierarchically-organized fluorescent nanomaterials inspired by plant antenna systems. These hybrid materials are based on nanostructured zeolitic materials (LTL zeolite) ...
Impulsive Vaccination for an Epidemiology Model
(IOP Publishing, 2017)
This paper investigates sufficient conditions of almost periodic sand periodic solutions of an integral model under impulsive controls. Since the model is of generic epidemiological interest, such impulsive controls are ...
On a New Epidemic Model with Asymptomatic and Dead-Infective Subpopulations with Feedback Controls Useful for Ebola Disease
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2017-02-19)
This paper studies the nonnegativity and local and global stability properties of the solutions of a newly proposed SEIADR model which incorporates asymptomatic and dead-infective subpopulations into the standard SEIR model ...
