On fixed point theory in partially ordered sets and an application to asymptotic complexity of algorithms
The celebrated Kleene fixed point theorem is crucial in the mathematical modelling of recursive specifications in Denotational Semantics. In this paper we discuss whether the hypothesis of the aforementioned result can be ... -
On the characterization of lithium-ion batteries under overtemperature and overcharge conditions: identification of abuse areas and experimental validation
Although lithium-ion batteries have gained considerable popularity in renewable energy and electric vehicle applications, their safety still remains a concern under certain voltage, temperature, or state of charge conditions. ... -
Onset of irreversible reactions in overcharging lithium-ion cells: an experimental and modeling approach
Lithium-ion batteries are energy storage systems used in an increasing number of applications. Due to their flammable materials, their use entails risks of fire and explosion. The study of the abuse operation of these ... -
Opening Pandora's box: cause and impact of errors on plant pigment studies
Today, there is an astonishing volume of scientific information available for researchers, which can be easily accessed through powerful search tools. Yet, the question now is whether all this vast amount of information ... -
Operation strategies guideline for packed bed thermal energy storage systems
Packed bed thermal energy storage (TES) systems have been identified in the last years as one of the most promising TES alternatives in terms of thermal efficiency and economic viability. The relative simplicity of this ... -
Optical fibre sensors using graphene-based materials: a review
Graphene and its derivatives have become the most explored materials since Novoselov and Geim (Nobel Prize winners for Physics in 2010) achieved its isolation in 2004. The exceptional properties of graphene have attracted ... -
Optical power-based interrogation of plasmonic tilted fiber Bragg grating biosensors
Two interrogation techniques for plasmonic tilted fiber Bragg grating sensors are reported and experimentally tested. Typical interrogation methods are usually based on tracking the wavelength shift of the most sensitive ... -
Optical-microwave sensor for real-time measurement of water contamination in oil derivatives
This paper presents a novel microwave sensor using optical activation for measuring in real-time the water contamination in crude oil or its derivatives. The sensor is constructed from an end-coupled microstrip resonator that ... -
Optimizing energy consumption in transportation: literature review, insights, and research opportunities
From airplanes to electric vehicles and trains, modern transportation systems require large quantities of energy. These vast amounts of energy have to be produced somewhere—ideally by using sustainable sources—and then ... -
Optimum power transfer in RF front end systems using adaptive impedance matching technique
Matching the antenna’s impedance to the RF-front-end of a wireless communications system is challenging as the impedance varies with its surround environment. Autonomously matching the antenna to the RF-front-end is therefore ... -
Overcome the limitations of performance parameters of on-chip antennas based on metasurface and coupled feeding approaches for applications in system-on-chip for THz integrated-circuits
This paper proposes a new solution to improve the performance parameters of on-chip antenna designs on standard CMOS silicon (Si.) technology. The proposed method is based on applying the metasurface technique and exciting ... -
Particularised Kalman filter for the state-of-charge estimation of second-life lithium-ion batteries and experimental validation
A critical issue for a proper energy management of a lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery is the estimation of its state-of-charge (SOC). There are various methods available for the SOC estimation, being some of them robust and ... -
Patient tracking in a multi-building, tunnel-connected hospital complex
Patients admitted to Intensive Care Units (ICU) are transported from and to other units. Knowing their location is strategic for a sound planning of intra-hospital transports as well as resources management. This is even ... -
Piezotronic, ZnO overlaid Bragg grating organic vapor sensors
We present a zinc oxide (ZnO) out-cladding, overlaid optical fiber Bragg grating sensor, for the detection of vapors of common alcohols and acetone at concentrations lower than 25 ppm while operating at room temperature ... -
Planar-waveguide-lmr-based sensors: engineering the depth of characteristic curves
Lossy mode resonance (LMR)-based sensors have been proven as one of the exponentially growing research fields since the last decade. These sensors have demonstrated their capabilities in the detection of several physical, ... -
Polyaniline deposition on tilted fiber Bragg grating for pH sensing
In this paper, we present the results of a new pH sensor based on a polyaniline (PAni) coating on the surface of a tilted fiber Bragg grating. The pH-sensitive PAni was deposited by in situ chemical oxidative polymerization. ... -
Potential of Cry10Aa and Cyt2Ba, two minority δ-endotoxins produced by Bacillus thuringiensis ser. israelensis, for the control of Aedes aegypti larvae
Bacillus thuringiensis ser. israelensis (Bti) has been widely used as microbial larvicide for the control of many species of mosquitoes and blackflies. The larvicidal activity of Bti resides in Cry and Cyt δ-endotoxins ... -
A proteomic atlas of lineage and cancer-polarized expression modules in myeloid cells modeling immunosuppressive tumor-infiltrating subsets
Monocytic and granulocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cells together with tumor-infiltrating macrophages constitute the main tumor-infiltrating immunosuppressive myeloid populations. Due to the phenotypic resemblance to ... -
Quantification of agricultural best management practices impacts on sediment and phosphorous export in a small catchment in southeastern Sweden
Agricultural activities contribute to water pollution through sediments and nutrient export, negatively affecting water quality and aquatic ecosystems. However, implementing best management practices (BMPs) could help ... -
Quantitative proteomics reveals the importance of nitrogen source to control glucosinolate metabolism in Arabidopsis thaliana and Brassica oleracea
Accessing different nitrogen (N) sources involves a profound adaptation of plant metabolism. In this study, a quantitative proteomic approach was used to further understand how the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana adjusts ...
