Comparison of thermal expansion of wood and epoxy adhesives
2002
Epoxy-based adhesives are used both in the consolidation of decayed timbers and for new structural joints. Investigating the compatibility of wood and epoxy adhesives provides a better knowledge of the long-term behaviour of wood-epoxy joints. Besides mechanical compatibility, also temperature-related parameters are relevant in this context. The values of the thermal expansion coefficients (TEC) of two wood species (Spruce, Picea abies and Iroko, Clorophora excelsa) and four different epoxy resins have been compared using a modified test method that allows for nearly iso-hygric conditions of the wood specimens. Minor differences in TEC have been observed between wood in the transversal-to-t…
Altered brain levels of arachidonic acid-derived inflammatory eicosanoids in a rodent model of anorexia nervosa
2019
Increasing evidence underline the role of inflammation in the behavioral, emotional and cognitive dysregulations displayed in anorexia nervosa (AN). Among the inflammatory mediators acting at both peripheral and central levels, growing attention receives a class of lipids derived from arachidonic acid (AA), called eicosanoids (eiCs), which exert a complex, multifaceted role in a wide range of neuroinflammatory processes, peripheral inflammation, and generally in immune system function. To date, little is known about their possible involvement in the neurobiological underpinnings of AN. The present study evaluated whether the activity-based model of AN (ABA) may alter AA-metabolic pathways b…
Two Half-Truths Make a Whole? On Bias in Self-Reports and Tracking Data
2019
The pervasive use of mobile information technologies brings new patterns of media usage, but also challenges to the measurement of media exposure. Researchers wishing to, for example, understand the nature of selective exposure on algorithmically driven platforms need to precisely attribute individuals’ exposure to specific content. Prior research has used tracking data to show that survey-based self-reports of media exposure are critically unreliable. So far, however, little effort has been invested into assessing the specific biases of tracking methods themselves. Using data from a multimethod study, we show that tracking data from mobile devices is linked to systematic distortions in sel…

Graphene coating obtained in a cold-wall CVD process on the Co-Cr Alloy (L-605) for medical applications
2021
Graphene coating on the cobalt-chromium alloy was optimized and successfully carried out by a cold-wall chemical vapor deposition (CW-CVD) method. A uniform layer of graphene for a large area of the Co-Cr alloy (discs of 10 mm diameter) was confirmed by Raman mapping coated area and analyzing specific G and 2D bands
Percepción de los residentes sobre los impactos de un gran evento deportivo: Desarrollo y validación de una escala
2017
Esta tesis doctoral desarrolla y valida una escala para analizar el impacto social de los eventos deportivos en la población española. Asimismo, se analiza el impacto social de un gran evento deportivo como es el Gran Premio de Europa de Fórmula 1 celebrado entre los años 2008 y 2012 en la ciudad de Valencia. Por lo tanto, este estudio tiene tres objetivos generales: en primer lugar, desarrollar y validar una escala para analizar la percepción de los residentes sobre los impactos asociados a la celebración de un gran evento deportivo; segundo, comprobar la validez de la escala para conocer las percepciones de los residentes sobre el Gran Premio de Europa de Fórmula 1; y, tercero, conocer la…
Self-efficacy in volleyball: What has been evaluated? A systematic review
2019
Self-efficacy in sport has been the object of study in different modalities, including volleyball. The aim of the present study was to verify, by means of a systematic review, what has been evaluated in volleyball self-efficacy studies. The APA, PsycInfo, Bireme, Eric, Science Direct, Pubmed and Scopus databases were used to carry out the search. After the search, the articles were selected using the inclusion and exclusion criteria, resulting in 7 articles. The results point to a lack of clarity in the instruments for assessing self-efficacy in volleyball, with regard to the technical, tactical, physical or psychological attributes they are designed to measure. Few articles have described …
Influencia de la satisfacción y el valor percibido sobre el “Word of Mouth” en los usuarios de centros deportivos
2019
Uno de los principales objetivos de los servicios deportivos, es fidelizar a los usuarios el mayor tiempo posible en dicho servicio. Por ello, desde el inicio de la literatura de la gestión del deporte, que analizan las diferentes variables de gestión, cada vez más, aparecen trabajos que tratan de aportar información relacionada con este objetivo. Dentro de las inten- ciones futuras de los usuarios, la recomendación es uno de los factores claves para poder analizar los futuros comportamientos de dichos usuarios. Por ello este trabajo, trata de analizar cuál es la influencia de la satisfacción y el valor percibido de los usuarios, sobre el “Word of Mouth” (boca-oído), es decir, como influyen…
Analysis of stress and academic-sports commitment through Self-organizing Artificial Neural Networks
2021
[Abstract] Objective: The objective of this research was to understand the relationships between the variables resilience, coping, commitment and stress in the academic and sports fields, and their differences based on varied personal typologies. Material and Methods: A selective research methodology was used, with a retrospective ex-post-facto design. The sample was made up of 190 men between the ages of 13 and 17, athletes and students of Compulsory Secondary Education (ESO), Baccalaureate and Middle Grade Vocational Training. Results: The artificial intelligence technique SOM, allowed to identify in an autonomous way three clusters of athletes with psychological and sociodemographic char…
