Mortar is of all masonry components the most difficult to be experimentally characterised in heritage buildings. This paper investigates the possibility of combining different in-situ and laboratory minor destructive testing ...

Nowadays, microgrids (MGs) play a crucial role in modern power systems due to possibility of integrating renewable energies into grid-connected or islanded power systems. The Load Frequency Control (LFC) is an issue of ...

Coiled-coils are filamentous proteins that form the basic building block of important force-bearing cellular elements, such as intermediate filaments and myosin motors. In addition to their biological importance, coiled-coil ...

Jar test experiments were collected to study the removal of phosphorus and of the dissolved chemical oxygen demand (CODf) at different coagulant dosages. Effluents from wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) Waßmannsdorf, ...

This article presents the potential of a combined analysis of the JUNO and KM3NeT/ORCA experiments to determine the neutrino mass ordering. This combination is particularly interesting as it significantly boosts the potential ...

The European Aerosol Research Lidar Network (EARLINET), part of the Aerosols, Clouds and Trace gases Research Infrastructure (ACTRIS), organized an intensive observational campaign in May 2020, with the objective of ...

Collaboration-based distributed systems are becoming more prevalent these days. Two such systems are Community Clouds, where a large number of anonymous private users share their computational resources within the community, ...

This paper presents a new quasi-Newton method suitable for systems that can be solved with a black-box solver for which a cheap surrogate model is available. In order to have fast convergence, the approximate Jacobian ...
