    Article
    Open Access
    Agro-industrial waste causes environmental impacts, and the use of new technologies and materials emerge as minimization alternatives. This work aimed to extract and characterize starch from avocado seeds for future ...

  • Cosmology intertwined: a review of the particle physics, astrophysics, and cosmology associated with the cosmological tensions and anomalies 

    Abdalla, Elcio; Abellan, Guillermo Franco; Aboubrahim, Amin; Agnello, Adriano; Akarsu, Özgür; Akrami, Yashar; Alestas, George; Aloni, Daniel; Amendola, Luca; Anchordoqui, Luis A.; Haro Cases, Jaume (2022-06)
    Article
    Open Access
    The standard ¿ Cold Dark Matter (¿CDM) cosmological model provides a good description of a wide range of astrophysical and cosmological data. However, there are a few big open questions that make the standard model look ...

  • La conservación de la biodiversidad cultivada 

    Casañas Artigas, Francesc; Simó Cruanyes, Joan; Casals Missio, Joan (2021-01-01)
    Article
    Open Access
    Los programas de revalorización de una variedad tradicional tienen por objeto la recuperación y mejora de plantas cultivadas loca- les que han perdido, a través de la erosión genética, propiedades sensoriales y nutritivas ...

  • Energy decay in thermoelastic 0bodies with radial symmetry 

    Bazarra, Noelia; Fernández Bernárdez, José Ramón; Quintanilla de Latorre, Ramón (Springer Nature, 2022-06)
    Article
    Open Access
    In this paper, we consider the energy decay of some problems involving domains with radial symmetry. Three different settings are studied: a strong porous dissipation and heat conduction, a weak porous dissipation and heat ...

  • SMART_TC: an R&D Programme on uses of artificial intelligence techniques for tritium monitoring in complex ITER-like tritium plant systems 

    Iraola de Acevedo, Eduardo; Sedano Miguel, Luis Ángel; Nougués, José María; Feliu, Josep Anton; Coya, Bruno; Batet Miracle, Lluís (2021-05)
    Article
    Restricted access - publisher's policy
    The realization of nuclear fusion energy is nowadays based on the concept of tritium breeding and the success of the ITER experiment. The latter relies today on a static monitoring approach to fulfill the emission limits ...

  • Brewing by-products as a source of natural antioxidants for food preservation 

    Codina Torrella, Idoia; Rodero de Lamo, Lourdes; Almajano Pablos, María Pilar (2021-09-23)
    Article
    Open Access
    Brewer’s spent grain (BSG) and brewer’s spent hops (BSH) are the major solid by-products of the brewing industry. The present work evaluated their potential as an alternative source of natural antioxidants. The efficacy ...

  • Comparison of first- and second-order sliding-mode controllers for a dc-dc dual active bridge 

    Dòria Cerezo, Arnau; Serra, Federico; Esteban, Francisco Daniel; Biel Solé, Domingo; Griñó Cubero, Robert (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2022-04-12)
    Article
    Open Access
    This paper compares four sliding-mode control strategies for a dual active bridge. The proposed control algorithms define different switching functions resulting in first-and second-order controllers, and using both ...

  • Thermal comfort of older people during summer in the continental Mediterranean climate 

    Baquero Larriva, María Teresa; Forcada Matheu, Núria (Elsevier, 2022-05-23)
    Article

    Article
    Open Access
    There is a continuous increase in the number of studies dealing with consumers' willingness to pay (WTP) price premiums for sustainable food products. This research focused on a broad area of sustainable food products, ...

  • Influence of punch trough stop layer and well depths on the robustness of bulk FinFETs to heavy ions impact 

    Calomarde Palomino, Antonio; Manich Bou, Salvador; Rubio Sola, Jose Antonio; Gamiz, Francisco (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2022-05-02)
    Article
    Open Access
    This study analyzes the effects of the punch-through stop (PTS) layer and well depth in a bulk FinFET SRAM cell on the fraction of charge generated by an ion impact that is collected by the FinFET channel. More than 1700 ...
