KIMERA: A Kinetic Montecarlo Code for Mineral Dissolution
(MDPI, 2020-09-18)
KIMERA is a scientific tool for the study of mineral dissolution. It implements a reversible Kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) method to study the time evolution of a dissolving system, obtaining the dissolution rate and information ...
Influence of Structural Defects on the Properties of Metamagnetic Shape Memory Alloys
(MDPI, 2020-08-22)
The production of μ-particles of Metamagnetic Shape Memory Alloys by crushing and subsequent ball milling process has been analyzed. The high energy involved in the milling process induces large internal stresses and high ...
Effects of Constant Magnetic Field to the Proliferation Rate of Human Fibroblasts Grown onto Different Substrates: Tissue Culture Polystyrene, Polyacrylamide Hydrogel and Ferrogels γ-Fe2O3 Magnetic Nanoparticles
(MDPI, 2020-08-20)
The static magnetic field was shown to affect the proliferation, adhesion and differentiation of various types of cells, making it a helpful tool for regenerative medicine, though the mechanism of its impact on cells is ...
THz Fingerprints of Cement-Based Materials
(MDPI, 2020-09-21)
To find materials with an appropriate response to THz radiation is key for the incoming THz technology revolution. Unfortunately, this region of the electromagnetic spectra remains largely unexplored in most materials. The ...
A Real-Time Implementation of Novel and Stable Variable Step Size MPPT
(MDPI, 2020-09-08)
This paper presents a complete study of a standalone photovoltaic (PV) system including a maximum power tracker (MPPT) driving a DC boost converter to feed a resistive load. Here, a new MPPT approach using a modification ...
Analysis of Photodiode Monitoring in Laser Cutting
(MDPI, 2020-09-19)
The paper presents the results of an analysis based on the photodiode monitoring signals obtained during the laser cutting of aluminum and stainless steel plates. The mean level of the monitoring signal was measured and ...
The Arabidopsis Transcription Factor CDF3 Is Involved in Nitrogen Responses and Improves Nitrogen Use Efficiency in Tomato
(Frontiers Media, 2020-11-24)
Nitrate is an essential macronutrient and a signal molecule that regulates the expression of multiple genes involved in plant growth and development. Here, we describe the participation of Arabidopsis DNA binding with one ...
Poly(ionic liquid)–ionic liquid membranes with fluorosulfonyl derived anions: characterization and biohydrogen separation
(ACS, 2020-04-21)
Clean and sustainable energy production has become a key global issue concerning the world’s energy shortage and environmental problematic. Despite the recognized potential of biohydrogen (bioH2) for sustainable development, ...

(2020-01)
Objective: To explore the experiences of schoolchildren in an exceptional health alert situation in which strict confinement measures have been applied to the population.Method: Qualitative exploratory study through the ...
Preformulation Studies of a Stable PTEN-PDZ Lipopeptide Able to Cross an In Vitro Blood-Brain-Barrier Model as a Potential Therapy for Alzheimer's Disease
(Springer, 2020-08-04)
PurposeAmyloid beta (A beta) drives the accumulation of excess Phosphatase and Tensin Homolog Deleted on Chromosome 10 (PTEN) at synapses, inducing synaptic depression and perturbing memory. This recruitment of PTEN to ...
