In this paper, two indices (combined or phi index and I index), different to the presented in [1][2][3] are used to detect damages; these indices are calculated from the information obtained from the projection of the ...

The present work describes a newly-developed Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) that has a fully integrated single-beam wide-band biological echosounder, thus serving a dual purpose: current measurement and biomass ...

This work addresses the physicochemical, enzymatic and sensory changes in cloudy apple juice treated by ultra- high pressure homogenization (UHPH) and short-wave ultraviolet radiation (UV–C) applied at 20 ¿C. Those technologies ...

Short extreme events have significant impact on landscape and ecosystems in low-lying and exposed areas such as deltaic systems. In this context, this paper proposes a combined methodology for the mapping and monitoring ...

This paper proposes a hybrid renewable energy system (HRES) consisting of photovoltaic (PV), wind and forest wood biomass power for cogeneration, and applies a multi-objective optimization methodology to study the trade-offs ...

Global concerns about nowadays’ energy shortage problems as well as climate change eects have encouraged alternatives to classical energy sources such as fossil fuels and nuclear power plants. In this context, combined ...

Planning efficiently at task and motion levels allows the setting of new challenges for robotic manipulation problems, like for instance constrained table-top problems for bi-manual robots. In this scope, the appropriate ...
