Preparation and characterization of bio-organoclays using nonionic surfactant
2015
The present study was aimed at the preparation and characterization of tailor made hybrid materials, whose peculiar hosting capability could be exploited in biotechnological applications. With this purpose, the modification of K10 montmorillonite by intercalation of Tween 20 surfactant, was accomplished. The influence of two internal parameters, namely pH and surfactant/clay ratio, on the surfactant uptake ability by clay was investigated. The adsorption mechanism was elucidated on the basis of complementary kinetic and equilibrium studies and, then, corroborated by the useful information provided by the FT-IR, TGA and XRD characterization. The gathered results allow to draw the conclusion …
Indigenismo y migracionismo. Aspectos de la neolitización en la fachada oriental de la Península Ibérica
1996
This paper discusses various aspects on the origins of the Neolithic in the Iberian Peninsula. The dual model is proposed as an alternative to the dichotomy of demie (migrationist) and non-demic (indigenist) explanations. The application of this model in eastern Spain offers an opportunity to evaluate its potential to account for diversity in processes associated with the origins of food production and their spatial organisation.
Sparse Deconvolution Using Support Vector Machines
2008
Sparse deconvolution is a classical subject in digital signal processing, having many practical applications. Support vector machine (SVM) algorithms show a series of characteristics, such as sparse solutions and implicit regularization, which make them attractive for solving sparse deconvolution problems. Here, a sparse deconvolution algorithm based on the SVM framework for signal processing is presented and analyzed, including comparative evaluations of its performance from the points of view of estimation and detection capabilities, and of robustness with respect to non-Gaussian additive noise.

Dual-model approach for safety-critical embedded systems
2020
Abstract The paper presents the design of digital controllers based on two models: the Petri net model, and the UML state machine. These two approaches differ in many aspects of design flow, such as conceptual modelling, and analysis and synthesis. Each of these approaches can be used individually to design an efficient logic controller, and such solutions are well-known, but their interoperability can contribute to a much better understanding of logic controller design and validation. This is especially important in the case of safety- or life-critical embedded systems, and apart from this, a dual-model controller design can make up redundant system increasing its reliability.
New distributed model for synthesis of classical dual mode filters
2010
Up to now, distributed models for classical dual mode filters have not been developed. In this paper, the whole procedure to derive such distributed models is shown step by step. The resulting formulas are very similar to those standard ones used for in-line filters since the 1960s. Model limitations, very similar to those related to classical formulas, in terms of precision and bandwidth, are pointed out. Finally, two practical examples of distributed models of dual mode filters for satellite transponders with different orders have been extracted.
Simultaneous dual mode imaging platform in lensless holographic microscopy
2019
We present a novel layout capable of dual mode imaging in real time with different magnifications and resolution capabilities in lensless microscopy based on wavelength multiplexing. Experiments using static and dynamic samples are included.
Treatment of snoring disorder with a non-ablactive Er:YAG laser dual mode protocol. An interventional study
2020
Background Snoring disorder is a common problem among world population. Treatment modalities may involve surgical and non-surgical procedures. As main objective we proposed to evaluate the efficacy of non-ablative Er:YAG laser in the treatment of snoring disorder. Material and Methods We performed an interventional study in 30 patients with snoring disorders. Three sessions were performed with Er:YAG laser 2940nm in long pulse mode (2J/cm2) and smooth mode (10-8J/cm2) in oropharynx region. We analyzed the efficacy of this protocol using questionnaires for snoring intensity, snoring related characteristics of quality of life (including the Epworth sleepness scale and OHIP-14), the satisfacti…
High selective H-plane TE dual mode cavity filter design by using nonresonating nodes
2013
The design of H-plane TE dual mode cavity filters using models containing nonresonating nodes is presented. From the models a coupling matrix is derived and decomposed into submatrices, each representing a subcircuit. The optimization and cascading of subcircuits represents a good starting point for the global optimization. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 56:161–166, 2014
Dual mode of action of grape cane extracts against Botrytis cinerea
2019
International audience; Crude extracts of Vitis vinifera canes represent a natural source of stilbene compounds with well characterized antifungals properties. In our trials, exogenous application of a stilbene extract (SE) obtained from grape canes on grapevine leaves reduces the necrotic lesions caused by Botrytis cinerea. The SE showed to possess a direct antifungal activity by inhibiting the mycelium growth. The activation of some grapevine defense mechanism was also investigated. H2O2 production and activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) phosphorylation cascades as well as accumulation of stilbenoid phytoalexins were explored on grapevine cell suspension. Moreover, the t…
Targeting Orthosteric and Allosteric Pockets of Aromatase via Dual-Mode Novel Azole Inhibitors
2020
[Image: see text] Breast cancer (BC) is the most diffused cancer type in women and the second leading cause of death among the female population. Effective strategies to fight estrogen responsive (ER+) BC, which represents 70% of all BC cases, rely on estrogen deprivation, via the inhibition of the aromatase enzyme, or the modulation of its cognate estrogen receptor. Current clinical therapies significantly increased patient survival time. Nevertheless, the onset of resistance in metastatic BC patients undergoing prolonged treatments is becoming a current clinical challenge, urgently demanding to devise innovative strategies. In this context, here we designed, synthesized, and performed in …
