Lack of association of cranial lacunae with intracranial hypertension in children with Crouzon syndrome and Apert syndrome: a 3D morphometric quantitative analysis
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2019)
Purpose Cranial lacunae (foci of attenuated calvarial bone) are CT equivalents ofBcopper beating seen on plain skull radio-graphs in children with craniosynostosis. The qualitative presence of copper beating has not been ...
Artificial Neural Network Based Reinforcement Learning for Wind Turbine Yaw Control
(MDPI AG, 2019)
This paper introduces a novel data driven yaw control algorithm synthesis method based on Reinforcement Learning (RL) for a variable pitch variable speed wind turbine. Yaw control has not been extendedly studied in the ...
Industrial Cyber-Physical System Evolution Detection and Alert Generation
(MDPI AG, 2019)
Industrial Cyber-Physical System (ICPS) monitoring is increasingly being used to make decisions that impact the operation of the industry. Industrial manufacturing environments such as production lines are dynamic and ...
FPGA-Based Degradation and Reliability Monitor for Underground Cables
(MDPI AG, 2019)
The online Remaining Useful Life (RUL) estimation of underground cables and their reliability analysis requires obtaining the cable failure time probability distribution. Monte Carlo (MC) simulations of complex thermal ...
Dementia related neuropsychiatric symptoms: inequalities in pharmacological treatment and institutionalization
(Dove Medical Press Limitedprevalence, 2019)
Background: Dementia-related neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) are the main determinant
of family stress and institutionalization of patients. This study aimed to identify inequalities
by gender and socioeconomic status ...
Model for a sustainable energy transition in Spain. Case study in a district of the Basque Country
(WIT Press, 2019)
The current energy model available in Spain is obsolete due to various circumstances, some technological, others social, economic or environmental. This supposes a tension in the economic and social model of the country. ...
Experimental analysis of cutting force reduction during ultrasonic assisted turning of Ti6Al4V
(Elsevier Ltd., 2019)
The machining of difficult-to-cut materials involves limitations leading to low productivity in conventional machining processes due to high cutting forces and tool wear rates. The ultrasonic ...
Application of the D3H2 Methodology for the Cost-Effective Design of Dependable Systems
(MDPI AG, 2019)
The use of dedicated components as a means of achieving desirable levels of fault tolerancein a system may result in high costs. A cost effective way of restoring failed functions is to use heterogeneous redundancies: ...
Induction Skull Melting of Ti-6Al-4V: Process Control and Efficiency Optimization
(MDPI AG, 2019)
Titanium investment casting is one of the leading and most e cient near-net-shape manufacturing processes, since complex shape components are possible to obtain with a very low amount of material waste. But melting these ...
Development of a Modular Fretting Wear and Fretting Fatigue Tribometer for Thin Steel Wires: Design Concept and Preliminary Analysis of the Effect of Crossing Angle on Tangential Force
(MDPI AG, 2019)
This work presents the design of a modular ad-hoc fretting fatigue and fretting wear tribotester for thin steel wires. The working principles of the diffrent modules are described, such as the displacement and contact ...
