The present study addresses the tree counting of a Eucalyptus plantation, most widely planted hardwood in world. Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) light detection and ranging (LiDAR) was used for estimation trees. LiDAR-based is challenge due to irregular shape multiple trunks. To overcome this difficulty, layer point cloud containing stems automatically classified extracted according height thresholds, those points were horizontally projected. Two different procedures applied on these points....
Traditional methods for assessing the stability of rubble mound breakwaters (RMBs) often rely on 2.5D data, which may fall short in capturing intricate changes armor units, such as tilting and lateral shifts. Achieving a detailed analysis RMB geometry typically requires fully 3D methods, but these hinge expensive acquisition technologies like terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) or airborne light detection ranging (LiDAR). This article introduces an innovative approach to evaluate structural...
EU regulations are gradually moving towards policies that reduce energy consumption and its environmental impact. To reach this goal, improving efficiency in residential buildings is a key action line. The European Parliament adopted the Near Zero-Energy Building (nZEB) as paradigm through Directive 2010/31/EU, but common technical legislative framework for renovations yet to be established. In paper, nZEB definition by COHERENO was evaluate several renovation packages given building, which...
To investigate clinical outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention using a sirolimus-eluting stent with bioresorbable polymer, Ultimaster (BP-SES) compared permanent polymer everolimus-eluting stent, Xience (PP-EES) in patients high risk (ST-segment elevation and non-ST-segment myocardial infarction) acute syndromes (ACS) enrolled the CENTURY II trial. is prospective, multicenter, randomized, single blind, controlled trial comparing BP-SES PP-EES, primary endpoint target lesion failure...
There is an urgent need for energy efficiency in buildings within the European framework, considering its environmental implications, and Europe’s dependence. Furthermore, enhancing increasing productivity building industry turns new technologies performance simulation environments into extremely interesting solutions towards rigorous analysis decision making renovation acceptable risk levels. The present work describes a multidisciplinary approach estimation of educational building....
To optimize suppression, restoration, and prevention plans against wildfire, postfire assessment is a key input. Since little research has been carried out on applying Sentinel-2 imagery through an integrated approach to evaluate how environmental parameters affect fire severity, this work aims fill gap. A set of large forest fires that occurred in northwest Spain during extreme weather conditions were adopted as case study. information was used build the severity map relation between it its...
The aim of this study was investigate the relationship between ABCB1 and ABCC3 gene expressions in peripheral blood cells (PBC) response to clopidogrel patients with coronary arterial disease (CAD).Twenty-six male CAD (50-70 years) under treatment (75 mg/day) for at least 5 days were selected. Blood samples obtained evaluate platelet reactivity mRNA expression. Platelet measured P2Y12 Reaction Units (PRU) using VerifyNow. RNA extracted from PBC levels by qPCR, GAPD as a reference...
Abstract Due to their cost, high-end commercial 3D-DIC (digital image correlation) systems are still inaccessible for many laboratories or small factories interested in lab testing materials. These professional can provide reliable and rapid full-field measurements that essential some laboratory tests with high-strain rate events high dynamic loading. However, stress-controlled experiments, such as the Brazilian tensile strength (BTS) test of compacted soils, samples usually large fail...
Twitter has been actively researched as a human mobility proxy. Tweets can contain two classes of geographical metadata: the location from which tweet was published, and place where is estimated to have published. Nevertheless, also presents tweets without any metadata when querying for on specific location. This study methodology includes an algorithm estimating coordinates doesn't assign any. Our objective determine origin route that tourist followed, even if return geographically...
To investigate genes differentially expressed in peripheral blood cells (PBCs) from patients with coronary arterial disease (CAD) under double anti-platelet therapy.Twenty-six CAD that were submitted to percutaneous intervention (PCI) selected participate this study. These took 100mg/day of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and 75mg/day clopidogrel. Blood samples collected before PCI evaluate platelet reactivity using VerifyNow ASA P2Y12 assays (Accumetrics). The stratified into 4 quartiles based...
This study aims to introduce the use of 3D-digital image correlation (DIC) in situ testing pavements and support development techniques for a rapid evaluation conservation status existing roads. Little research was found on this topic. The passage car wheel an asphalt pavement adopted as case study. DIC measurements were compared those gathered by contact sensors. From qualitative point view, captured realistic shape deflection basin. quantitative values provided system had mean error 0.015...
Highly fragmented land property hinders the planning and management of single species tree plantations. In such situations, acquiring information about available resources is challenging. This study aims to propose a method locate characterize plantations in these cases. Galicia (Northwest Spain) an area where extremely divided into small parcels. European chestnut (Castanea sativa) are important source income there; however, it often difficult obtain them due their size scattered...
Gridshells are unexploited structures, over which lengths measurement difficult to do due their size and complex curvature. To deformation on a timber gridshell beam an entire gridshell, we used affordable photogrammetry system that consisted of consumer-level camera, tripod, mast with gimbal elevate the laptop, two photogrammetric software: PhotoModeler Scanner Metashape. The was subjected bending test, loaded 105 kg dead load per node its five central nodes. maximum error in 1.26 mm 3.45...
This paper presents the characterization of new lightweight cement composites incorporating limestone dust and charcoal. The charcoal is used not only to make composite lighter in weight but also improve its hygrothermal performance. Additionally, dust, a waste material, instead sand mixtures their sustainability. Results show that limestone-charcoal-cement have low thermal conductivity, while retaining good mechanical strength, high water vapor permeability, flammability. It was found these...
