Fiber-based early diagnosis of venous thromboembolic disease by label-free D-dimer detection
(Elsevier, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
D-dimer is a useful diagnostic biomarker for deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism, collectively referred to as venous thromboembolism (VTE). The ability to detect in real-time the amount of D-dimer with a fast and ...
Low-profile conformal UWB antenna for UAV applications
(IEEE, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
This article presents a new design of an ultra-wideband conformal antenna for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) applications. The antenna is a low-profile structure which is very suitable to diminish aerial vehicle drag problem. ...
Supercapacitors: electrical characteristics, modelling, applications and future trends
(IEEE, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Energy storage systems are playing an increasingly important role in a variety of applications,
such as electric vehicles or grid-connected systems. In this context, supercapacitors (SCs) are gaining
ground due to their ...
Quasi-distributed vibration sensing using OFDR and weak reflectors
(Optical Society of America, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
The authors proposed a quasi-distributed vibration sensing technique using in-line weak reflectors and optical frequency domain reflectometry (OFDR). As a result, they achieved an 8 kHz measurable vibration frequency with ...
Short- and mid-term evaluation of the use of electric vehicles in urban freight transport collaborative networks: a case study
(Taylor & Francis, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Despite its negative impacts, freight transportation is a primary component of all supply chains. Decision makers have considered diverse strategies, such as Horizontal Collaboration (HC) and the usage of alternative types ...
The law of O-conditionality for fuzzy implications constructed from overlap and grouping functions
(Elsevier, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Overlap and grouping functions are special kinds of non necessarily associative aggregation operators proposed for many applications, mainly when the associativity property is not strongly required. The classes of overlap ...
Strengthened ordered directionally monotone functions. Links between the different notions of monotonicity
(Elsevier, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
In this work, we propose a new notion of monotonicity: strengthened ordered directional monotonicity. This generalization of monotonicity is based on directional monotonicity and ordered directional monotonicity, two recent ...
Spectral shadowing suppression technique in phase-OTDR sensing based on weak fiber Bragg grating array
(Optical Society of America, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
A postprocessing procedure is presented to suppress spectral shadowing in phase-OTDR sensing systems based on a weak fiber Bragg grating array. A complete theoretical analysis of the interfering signals has been carried ...
Locating a biorefinery in Northern Spain: decision making and economic consequences
(Elsevier, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Biofuels are emerging as a prominent renewable and sustainable energy sources in developed countries. In this sense, this paper presents a case study in which a biorefinery has to be sited in Northern Spain. Thus, the ...
Optical fiber lasers assisted by microdrilled optical fiber tapers
(Optical Society of America, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
In this Letter, we present an analysis of the backscattering generated in a microdrilled tapered fiber within a short-linear-cavity fiber laser. We propose and experimentally demonstrate a fiber cavity laser based on a ...
