The HKUST-1 metal–organic framework (MOF) was successfully applied as a biocidal material against representative yeast and mold. The synthesized MOF showed a strong antifungal effect against Saccharomyces cerevisiae for ...

This paper presents an experimental and numerical characterization of ductile damage evolution in steels subjected to large plastic deformations. To this end, a set of tensile tests combining load-unload tensile cycles is ...

This paper presents the implementation of a particlefiltering- based prognostic framework that allows estimating the state of health (SOH) and predicting the remaining useful life (RUL) of energy storage devices, and ...

This paper applies classical exponential-family statistical theory to develop a unifying framework for testing structural parameters in the simultaneous equations model under the assumption of normal errors with known ...

Os consumidores tornaram-se mais exigentes com as marcas que consomem, desejando interações que superem suas expectativas. Para serem atrativas para esse novo perfil de cliente, as marcas de varejo devem se conectar com ...

This paper considers tests which maximize the weighted average power (WAP). The focus is on determining WAP tests subject to an uncountable number of equalities and/or inequalities. The unifying theory allows us to obtain ...

Context: The Mutation Analysis criterion – or, mutation testing – allows both the evaluation of test sets and the identification of faults present in the software. The criterion is considered effective, however has gaps in ...

A general algorithm for the free vibration analysis of stepped and tapered beam type structures with multiple elastic supports is developed in this work. The analytical formulation is based on the Ritz method and on the ...
