Vinificazione in bianco in presenza di chips di quercia di origine e livello di tostatura diversi

2011

Some musts from Grillo grapes, a cultivar autochthonous of western Sicily, fermented with medium toasted American oak chips or with non toasted French oak chips (Classic Line – HTS enology) have been vinified. the wines were significantly different as regards the contents in volatile and non volatile compounds extracted from American and French oak chips. a slight increase in alcoholic fermentation rate and in some cases a higher content of ethyl esters and medium chain fatty acids, were observed in musts charged with chips, independently of their origin. In wines obtained from musts charged with french medium toasted oak chips, the content in furans was higher (5-methylfurfural, trans-meth…

Flexible and Efficient Computer-Aided Design Tool for Advanced Comb-Line Rectangular Waveguide Filters

2015

A very flexible and efficient computer-aided design (CAD) tool, specifically suited for advanced comb-line rectangular waveguide filters, is presented in this work. The developed software tool, which makes use of a full-wave analysis technique based on the Boundary Integral - Resonant Mode Expansion method, permits to load the considered comb-line resonators with any number of radially symmetrical partial-height metallic posts. The implemented CAD tool also allows for dealing with coupling windows of arbitrary cross-section, thus drastically enhancing the flexibility of the computer-aided design process. The excitation of the analyzed components, which is performed by using generalized coax…

Coverage study of a sustainable IoT system for industrial applications

2022

Los dispositivos del Internet de las Cosas (IoT) son muy útiles para monitorizar información en escenarios industriales incluso en zonas que tienen difícil acceso a través de las conexiones tradicionales. Las comunicaciones inalámbricas fiables pueden ser un reto en entornos industriales, donde la señal de comunicaciones es a menudo bloqueada debido a la presencia de maquinaria industrial, con posibles bloqueos intermitentes y/o impredecibles. Este artículo evalúa las características de cobertura de un despliegue sostenible y de bajo coste de dispositivos IoT para monitorizar una instalación industrial dedicada al diseño y montaje de sistemas de automatización para la industria alimentaria.…

Biodeterioration of the Wooden Roof of the Phnom Penh National Museum

2017

Within the framework of a training program in Cambodia, during a visit to the National Museum in Phnom Penh, the most important in the Kingdom of Cambodia, the authors noted the presence of some signs of a termite attack in the secondary elements of the roof of an inner garden. Following this observation, a further investigation was performed in order to evaluate the phytosanitary condition of the wooden bearing element of the roof. The inspection highlighted the presence of severe decay, constituting a real danger for the integrity of the roof; consequently, an intervention of restoration, conservation and safeguard was considered to be necessary and urgent. This paper presents the results…

Photocatalytic nano-composite architectural lime mortar for degradation of urban pollutants under solar and visible (interior) light

2017

Abstract Recent advances in nano-technology and nano-additives can give enhanced properties to natural hydraulic lime (NHL), creating a multifunctional material. We have prepared a novel nanocomposite, made of a commercial mortar with 1 wt% and 5 wt% added titania nanoparticles (NPs). These TiO 2 NPs are themselves doped with 1 mol% silver, to give the material enhanced photocatalytic and antimicrobial properties. The Ag-doped TiO 2 NPs were made from a simple, costs effective, aqueous green nanosynthesis process, and the end material only contains 0.01–0.05% Ag. As this mortar is intended to both combat atmospheric pollution, and create more durable/lower maintenance building facades (plas…

Actividad física y uso sedentario de medios tecnológicos de pantalla en adolescentes

2013

Los beneficios asociados a un estilo de vida activo adquieren una especial importancia cuando nos referimos a niños y jóvenes por sus repercusiones a corto y a largo plazo, de modo que convierten a la actividad física en un elemento clave para las políticas sociales y de salud de las distintas administraciones públicas. A la preocupación que suscita la práctica física entre los adolescentes, se le añade el uso creciente de los medios tecnológicos de pantalla por parte de la población joven, que puede mermar o condicionar su práctica física diaria. La presente tesis doctoral consiste en una investigación epidemiológica sobre una muestra representativa de adolescentes españoles que ascendió a…

Innovative Approaches for Organizing an Inclusive Optics and Photonics Conference in Virtual Format

2023

The COVID pandemic is forcing the renewal of scientific conferences, offering opportunities to introduce technological and inclusive developments. Our analysis focuses on the implementation of inclusive practices for female and early-career researchers in a virtual scientific conference. This organization approach was applied in the XIII Spanish Optical Meeting (RNO2021), which was also characterized by avatars interacting in an online metaverse. The effectiveness of inclusive policies and novel technological tools was evaluated using the participation data and a post-conference survey. Our study reveals the high impact of inclusive actions and a strong interest in the scientific community …
