Facing the severity of the impact of climate change andenvironmental degradation on human health, 32 InternalMedicine societies, colleges, and associations of 29 Spanishand Portuguese-speaking countries publish a consensusdocument calling for the implication of doctors and allhealth professionals, in the global fight against the causesof these changes. This commitment requires the cooperation of health-related ...

Study of the requirements of an autonomous system for surface water quality mon...

In recent years, there has been increasing awareness of the preservation, protection and sustainable use of natural resources. Water resources, being one of the most important natural resources, face major threats due to contamination by pollutants of various types and origins. Maintaining the quality of water resources requires more robust, reliable and more frequent monitoring than traditional techniques of d...

Existing concrete structures life management, testing and structural health mon...

[Excerpt] The through-life management of our constantly ageing infrastructure is a basic requirement in order to ensure their structural safety and serviceability. Each structure experiences deterioration processes with time leading to a decrease of structural safety and serviceability. The design of new structures considers the expected deterioration for a defined period, the design service life. However, a fr...

Fatigue behaviour of maraging steel samples produced by SLM under constant and ...

This paper addresses the fatigue behaviour of AISI 18Ni300 samples manufactured by selective laser melting under both constant- and variable-amplitude loading. The fatigue campaign encompasses a series of low-cycle strain-controlled fatigue tests performed under fully-reversed conditions at various strain amplitudes, and a series of high-cycle stress-controlled fatigue tests performed under pulsating conditions...

Application of experimental design methodology to optimize antibiotics removal ...

Three-level Box-Behnken experimental design with three factors (pH, temperature and antibiotic initial concentration) combined with response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to study the removal of Metronidazole and Sulfamethoxazole by walnut shell based activated carbon. This methodology enabled to identify the effects of the different factors studied and their interactions in the response of each antibio...
