Diffusion of Quinine with Ethanol as a Co-Solvent in Supercritical CO2
(MDPI, 2020)This study aims at contributing to quinine extraction using supercritical CO2 and ethanol as a co-solvent. The diffusion coefficients of quinine in supercritical CO2 are measured using the Taylor dispersion technique when ... -
Partial Power Processing Based Converter for Electric Vehicle Fast Charging Stations
(MDPI, 2021)This paper focuses on the design of a charging unit for an electric vehicle fast charging station. With this purpose, in first place, different solutions that exist for fast charging stations are described through a brief ... -
In-SEM micro-machining reveals the origins of the size effect in the cutting energy
(Springer Nature, 2021)High-precision metal cutting is increasingly relevant in advanced applications. Such precision normally requires a cutting feed in the micron or even sub-micron dimension scale, which raises questions about applicability ... -
Modern Project Management Approaches in Uncertainty Environments: A Comparative Study Based on Action Research
(MDPI, 2020)Change and high uncertainty levels are the main characteristics of current project contexts. Years ago, the traditional project management faced problems when operating in these environments. Thus, at the end of the 20th ... -
Economic evaluation of supplementing the diet with Souvenaid in patients with prodromal Alzheimer's disease
(BioMed Central Ltd. Part of Springer Nature, 2020)Background: The LipiDiDiet trial showed that Souvenaid, a medical food, might delay progression to dementia in prodromal Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The objective of this study was to assess the cost-utility of Souvenaid ... -
