3D‐printed concrete footbridges: An approach to assess the sustainability performance

open access: yesStructural Concrete, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 7705-7725, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Digital fabrication with concrete (DFC) is fast becoming an attractive alternative for components (i.e., façades, urban furniture) and structural typologies (i.e., short‐span footbridges, columns, floor systems) for which complex geometries derived from particular aesthetical criteria and/or construction time constrictions are governing ...

Surface textures of detrital pyroxenes in coastal dune sands (western Gulf of Mexico, Mexico): Implications for their preservation and geoenvironmental processes

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, Volume 9, Issue 4, Page 789-809, November 2023., 2023
Breakage along cleavage surfaces and little abrasion in clinopyroxene grains occurs after fluvial, marine and aeolian transport. Compactness measurements are an alternative shape descriptor to determine the morphology of minerals. Abstract This work investigates how the surface textures and morphology of pyroxene grains evolve during their source‐to ...

Feeling/thinking the archive: Participatory mapping Marronage

open access: yesArea, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 416-425, September 2023., 2023
Short Abstract This article develops a decolonial participatory method to map the geographies of descendants of fugitives from slavery, or Maroons, to disrupt white‐Mestizo constructions of Latin American territories. With the researcher‚ Äôs assistance, members of San Basilio de Palenque, Colombia, used their knowledge and emotions as a lens through ...

Adaptive phenotypic and genomic divergence in the common chaffinch (Fringilla coelebs) following niche expansion within a small oceanic island

open access: yesJournal of Evolutionary Biology, Volume 36, Issue 9, Page 1226-1241, September 2023., 2023
We study the process of local adaptation in the common chaffinch to two contrasting habitats on the island of La Palma, the humid laurel forest and the dry pine forest. We document habitat‐related phenotypic divergence, and using genome–environment association analysis on a small fraction of the genome, we detect adaptive genomic divergence at a small ...

Application of high‐performance fibre reinforced concrete to precast girders for road bridges: Conceptual considerations and numerical analyses

open access: yesStructural Concrete, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 4645-4659, August 2023., 2023
Abstract High‐performance fiber‐reinforced concrete (HPFRC) can be considered a promising material for the construction of precast concrete girders for road bridges. This paper presents conceptual considerations and numerical analysis to support this statement. The HPFRC is a compromised alternative between FRC and UHPFRC mixes.

Report of the Scientific Committee of the Spanish Agency for Food Safety and Nutrition (AESAN) on the prospection of biological hazards of interest in food safety in Spain (2)

open access: yesFood Risk Assess Europe, Volume 1, Issue 1, March 2023., 2023
Abstract This report addresses the prospection of biological hazards for some types of food that may pose a risk to the population and that are not currently included in the official control programs in Spain. It completes and updates the 2018 report by the Scientific Committee of the Spanish Agency for Food Safety and Nutrition (AESAN, 2018). A number

SARS‐CoV‐2 infection and venous thromboembolism after surgery: an international prospective cohort study

open access: yesAnaesthesia, Volume 77, Issue 1, Page 28-39, January 2022., 2022
Summary SARS‐CoV‐2 has been associated with an increased rate of venous thromboembolism in critically ill patients. Since surgical patients are already at higher risk of venous thromboembolism than general populations, this study aimed to determine if patients with peri‐operative or prior SARS‐CoV‐2 were at further increased risk of venous ...

Entropy characterisation of overstressed capacitors for lifetime prediction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We propose a method to monitor the ageing and damage of capacitors based on their irreversible entropy generation rate. We overstressed several electrolytic capacitors in the range of 33 µF–100 µF and monitored their entropy generation rate View the ...

Timing of surgery following SARS‐CoV‐2 infection: an international prospective cohort study

open access: yesAnaesthesia, Volume 76, Issue 6, Page 748-758, June 2021., 2021
Summary Peri‐operative SARS‐CoV‐2 infection increases postoperative mortality. The aim of this study was to determine the optimal duration of planned delay before surgery in patients who have had SARS‐CoV‐2 infection. This international, multicentre, prospective cohort study included patients undergoing elective or emergency surgery during October 2020.
