[EN] Tungstate counteracts diabetes and obesity in animal models, but its molecular mechanisms remain elusive. Our Saccharomyces cerevisiae-based approach has found that tungstate alleviated the growth defect induced by ...
[EN] Conducting organic polymers (COPs) are made of a conjugated polymer backbone supporting a certain degree of oxidation. These positive charges are compensated by the doping anions that are introduced into the polymer ...
Al món de l'Arquitectura existeix la necessitat de posar en valor la diversitat en un sentit ampli: en destacar el treball fet per les arquitectes; en projectar i planificacar espais que responguen a les necessitats de ...

[EN] Most traditional resource management techniques for real-time systems with multiple control loops are based on "open-loop" strategies that statically allocate a constant CPU share to each control task, independent of ...
This paper presents small balanced bandpass filters exhibiting wide differential-mode pass bands and high common-mode suppression. The filters are implemented in microstrip technology and their topology consists of ...
[EN] This paper is focused on the design of bandpass filters based on open complementary split ring resonators (OCSRRs) in microstrip technology. The filters are obtained by coupling the corresponding shunt resonators ...

The automated and unattended design of balanced microstrip wideband bandpass
filters by means of aggressive space mapping (ASM) optimization is reported in this paper. The proposed filters are based on multisection mirrored ...
This paper is focused on the application of space mapping optimization to the automated synthesis of
transmission lines loaded with complementary split ring resonators (CSRRs) and open complementary split ring resonators ...
[EN] In Spain there are around 70.000 reservoirs. According to current legislation, users and administrations are obligated to classify them based on the potential risk in the event of a rupture, if they have more than ...
[EN] Cash management models are usually based on a set of bounds that
complicate the selection of the optimal policies due to nonlinearity.
We here propose to linearize cash management models to guarantee
optimality through ...
