A Portable Dynamic Laser Speckle System for Sensing Long-Term Changes Caused by Treatments in Painting Conservation
2018
[EN] Dynamic laser speckle (DLS) is used as a reliable sensor of activity for all types of materials. Traditional applications are based on high-rate captures (usually greater than 10 frames-per-second, fps). Even for drying processes in conservation treatments, where there is a high level of activity in the first moments after the application and slower activity after some minutes or hours, the process is based on the acquisition of images at a time rate that is the same in moments of high and low activity. In this work, we present an alternative approach to track the drying process of protective layers and other painting conservation processes that take a long time to reduce their levels …
Homoleptic iron(II) complexes with the ionogenic ligand 6,6′-Bis(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-2,2′-bipyridine: spin crossover behavior in a singular 2D spin cro…
2015
Deprotonation of the ionogenic tetradentate ligand 6,6′-bis(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-2,2′-bipyridine [H2bipy(ttr)2] in the presence of FeII in solution has afforded an anionic mononuclear complex and a neutral two-dimensional coordination polymer formulated as, respectively, NEt3H{Fe[bipy(ttr)2][Hbipy(ttr)2]}·3MeOH (1) and {Fe[bipy(ttr)2]}n (2). The anions [Hbipy(ttr)2]− and [bipy(ttr)2]2– embrace the FeII centers defining discrete molecular units 1 with the FeII ion lying in a distorted bisdisphenoid dodecahedron, a rare example of octacoordination in the coordination environment of this cation. The magnetic behavior of 1 shows that the FeII is high-spin, and its Mössbauer spectrum is characteriz…
Biases in study design, implementation, and data analysis that distort the appraisal of clinical benefit and ESMO-Magnitude of Clinical Benefit Scale…
2021
BACKGROUND: The European Society for Medical Oncology-Magnitude of Clinical Benefit Scale (ESMO-MCBS) is a validated, widely used tool developed to score the clinical benefit from cancer medicines reported in clinical trials. ESMO-MCBS scores assume valid research methodologies and quality trial implementation. Studies incorporating flawed design, implementation, or data analysis may generate outcomes that exaggerate true benefit and are not generalisable. Failure to either indicate or penalise studies with bias undermines the intention and diminishes the integrity of ESMO-MCBS scores. This review aimed to evaluate the adequacy of the ESMO-MCBS to address bias generated by flawed design, im…
A hybrid multi-criteria approach to GPR image mining applied to water supply system maintenance
2018
[EN] Data processing techniques for Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) image mining provide essential information to optimize maintenance management of Water Supply Systems (WSSs). These techniques aim to elaborate on radargrams in order to produce meaningful graphical representations of critical buried components of WSSs. These representations are helpful non-destructive evaluation tools to prevent possible failures in WSSs by keeping them adequately monitored. This paper proposes an integrated multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) approach to prioritize various data processing techniques by means of ranking their outputs, namely their resulting GPR image representations. The Fuzzy Analytic Hi…
Maximal ℓ p ‐regularity of multiterm fractional equations with delay
2020
[EN] We provide a characterization for the existence and uniqueness of solutions in the space of vector-valued sequences l(p) (Z, X)for the multiterm fractional delayed model in the form Delta(alpha)u(n) + lambda Delta(beta)u(n) = Lambda u(n) + u(n-tau) + f(n), n is an element of Z, alpha, beta is an element of R+, tau is an element of Z, lambda is an element of R, where X is a Banach space, A is a closed linear operator with domain D(A) defined on X, f is an element of l(p)(Z,X) and Delta(Gamma) denotes the Grunwald-Letkinov fractional derivative of order Gamma > 0. We also give some conditions to ensure the existence of solutions when adding nonlinearities. Finally, we illustrate our resu…
Características de los menores infractores dependiendo del tipo de delito
2015
The aim of this study is to define a profile of juvenile offenders depending on the type of crime (against property or against persons), according to several socio-demographic variables, and a number of indicators of juvenile risk. Participants were 395 adolescents between the ages of 14 and 18 with a criminal record in the juvenile court over a two-year follow-up period. Results showed that in property-related offences the offender is more likely to be male, from an Eastern European country, and with inconsistent parenting. On the other hand, crimes against persons would be committed mostly by girls, Latin American or African juveniles, and with individual factors such as aggressive behavi…

Formal Variation and Language Change in Catalan Quantifiers : the Role of Pragmatics
2020
This article studies the formal variation of the masculine singular forms of the quantifiers u/un 'one', algú/algun 'someone, some', ningú/ningun 'no-one, anyone, not one, any, none' and cada u/cada un 'everyone, each one' in contemporary Catalan. The standard uses of these forms are contrasted with dialectal uses, obtained from a thorough search in oral and written corpora. In addition, they are compared with the uses in the other Romance languages and with their historical evolution in Catalan. The whole set of data, and especially the dialectal information on the Valencian area, allow us to explain the various factors that have interacted in the variation and formal change of these quant…
Development of a specific assay using RISA for detection of the bacterial agent of 'basses richesses' syndrome of sugar beet and confirmation of a Pe…
2007
International audience; A technique for the specific diagnosis in insects of SBRp (the γ-3 proteobacterium associated with the syndrome ‘basses richesses’ (SBR) of sugar beet crops in eastern France), using the RISA (rDNA intergenic spacer analysis) technique, was developed. PCR using the Alb1/Oliv1 primer pair specifically amplified a 16S-ITS region of SBRp and produced a characteristic DNA fingerprint. This PCR assay did not detect other closely related organisms, including the Arsenophonus endosymbiont of Diaphorina citri, the secondary endosymbiont of Glycaspis brimblecombei, or ‘Candidatus Phlomobacter fragariae’, a related phytopathogenic γ-3 proteobacterium. Six different ribosomal o…
El fuster, definició d'un ofici en la València medieval
2011
La creació de la corporació d’oficis dels fusters de València marca el començament de la fusteria valenciana, en concret, la de la València medieval. Privilegis, estatuts i costum regien la vida i el treball d’aquest artífex la memòria dels quals mira de recuperar la present tesi. En conseqüència, s’analitza la seu evolució, des de els primers compassos com associació devota a partir de la conquesta de la ciutat en 1238 fins a esdevenir confraria d’ofici, contemplant la conjunció d’aspectes religiosos i assistencials en paral·lel a la component econòmica, social i política de la comunitat. L’estudi contempla la contribució de les ideologies socials i religioses sobre el pensament de l’artes…
