    • Axisymmetric smoothed particle magnetohydrodynamics 

      García Senz, Domingo; Wissing, Robert; Cabezón Gómez, Rubén Martín; Vurgun, Eda; Linares Herreros, María Paz (Oxford University Press, 2023-01-01)
      Article
      Open Access
      Many astrophysical and terrestrial scenarios involving magnetic fields can be approached in axial geometry. Although the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) technique has been successfully extended to magneto-hydrodynamics ...
    • Chlorine resistance property improvement of polyamide reverse osmosis membranes through cross-linking degree increment 

      Gholami, Sina; Rezvani, Alireza; Vatanpour, Vahid; Khoshravesh, Seyyed Hossein; Llorens Llacuna, Joan; Engel López, Elisabeth; Castaño Linares, Oscar; Cortina Pallás, José Luís (Elsevier, 2023-09-01)
      Article

      Article
      Open Access
      The centralization of baseband (BB) functions in a radio access network (RAN) towards data processing centres is receiving increasing interest as it enables the exploitation of resource pooling and statistical multiplexing ...
    • Multiqubit time-varying quantum channels for NISQ-era superconducting quantum processors 

      Etxezarreta Martínez, Josu; Fuentes Ugartemendia, Patricio; Martí i Oliu, Antonio de; García Frias, Javier; Rodríguez Fonollosa, Javier; Crespo Bofill, Pedro M. (American Physical Society, 2023-07)
      Article
      Open Access
      Time-varying quantum channels (TVQCs) have been proposed as a model to include fluctuations of the relaxation (T1) and dephasing times (T2). In previous works, realizations of multiqubit TVQCs have been assumed to be equal ...
    • Two-step techniques for accurate selection of small elements in VR environments 

      Molina López, Elena; Vázquez Alcocer, Pere Pau (2023-07)
      Article
      Open Access
      One of the key interactions in 3D environments is target acquisition, which can be challenging when targets are small or in cluttered scenes. Here, incorrect elements may be selected, leading to frustration and wasted time. ...
