  • Tsunamis generated by fast granular landslides: 3D experiments and empirical predictors 

    Bregoli, Francesco; Bateman Pinzón, Allen; Medina Iglesias, Vicente César de (2017-03)
    Article
    Open Access
    Landslides falling into water bodies can generate impulsive waves, which are a type of tsunamis. The propagating wave may be highly destructive for hydraulic structures, civil infrastructure and people living along the ...

  • Conditional distribution variability measures for causality detection 

    Rodríguez Fonollosa, José Adrián (Springer, 2019)
    Part of book or chapter of book
    Restricted access - publisher's policy
    In this paper we derive variability measures for the conditional probability distributions of a pair of random variables, and we study its application in the inference of causal-effect relationships. We also study the ...

  • A GRASP meta-heuristic for evaluating the latency and lifetime impact of critical nodes in large wireless sensor networks 

    Sembroiz Ausejo, David; Ojaghi Kahjogh, Behnam; Careglio, Davide; Ricciardi, Sergio (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2019-11-01)
    Article
    Open Access
    Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) have lately been gaining momentum thanks to the hardware improvements and standardization software efforts. Moreover, the appearance of Internet of Things (IoT) and its reliance on sensors ...

    Conference lecture
    Open Access
    El comité técnico CEN/TC 250 "Eurocódigos estructurales" de la Unión Europea ha aprobado el documento previo a la redacción del Eurocódigo "Estructuras de membrana" y convocado la redacción del borrador del mismo. En esta ...

  • Minimization procedure of experimental tests for calibration purposes, within HVAC&R energy efficiency framework 

    Morales Ruíz, Sergio; Oliet Casasayas, Carles; Castro González, Jesús; Rigola Serrano, Joaquim; Oliva Llena, Asensio (2019)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    Simulation models and predictive tools need to be fast, accurate and robust at the same time. The models that have to provide numerical solutions under transient conditions for a long period of time need to be simple with ...

  • Influence of regional and seasonal rainfall patterns on the ratio between fixed and unrestricted measured intervals of rainfall amounts 

    Llabrés Brustenga, Alba; Rius Ventosa, Anna; Rodríguez Solá, Raúl; Casas Castillo, M. del Carmen (2020-01-14)
    Article
    Restricted access - publisher's policy
    Historically, most precipitation data have been measured by collecting rainfall, usually at intervals of 24 h, with a fixed starting time. Nonetheless, it is known that the use of fixed time intervals to measure rainfall ...

  • Predictive chiller operation: a data-driven loading and scheduling approach 

    Sala Cardoso, Enric; Delgado Prieto, Miquel; Kampouropoulos, Konstantinos; Romeral Martínez, José Luis (2019-01-01)
    Article
    Restricted access - publisher's policy
    The proper sequencing and optimal loading of chillers is one of the major avenues for energy efficiency improvement in existing heating, ventilating and air conditioning installations. The main enabler for the success of ...

    The temperature dependence of thermal conductivity ¿(¿) of selected molecular polycrystals consisting of flexible molecules was investigated within 20–260¿K. The materials were para-chloronitrobenzene, pentachloronitrobenzene ...

  • A Convolutional Neural Network for the automatic diagnosis of collagen VI-related muscular dystrophies 

    Rodríguez Bazaga, Adrián; Roldán Molina, Mónica; Badosa Gallego, Maria del Carmen; Jiménez Mallebrera, Cecilia; Porta Pleite, Josep Maria (2019-12-01)
    Article
    Restricted access - publisher's policy
    The development of machine learning systems for the diagnosis of rare diseases is challenging, mainly due to the lack of data to study them. This paper surmounts this obstacle and presents the first Computer-Aided Diagnosis ...

  • Structure and dynamics of the crystalline stable phase of 2-Chlorothiophene 

    Romanini, Michela; Negrier, Philippe; Barrio Casado, María del; Mondieig, Denise; Serra, Pablo; Zuriaga, Jose Mariano; Macovez, Roberto; Tamarit Mur, José Luis (2019-09-23)
    Article
    Restricted access - publisher's policy
    The dynamics of a simple and rigid molecule (2-chlorothiophene) has been studied by means of broadband dielectric spectroscopy (BDS) within the low-temperature stable crystalline phase, whose structure has been determined ...
