(Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas: Instituto Eduardo Torroja, 2015-06)El objetivo del presente artículo es confirmar el distinto comportamiento que presenta la solución tradicional de losa maciza frente a una aligerada, haciendo un análisis comparativo, aplicando el M.E.F., de la primera ... -
Analytical approaches for arsenic determination in air : a critical review
(Elsevier Masson, 2015)This review describes the different steps involved in the determination of arsenic in air, considering the particulate matter (PM) and the gaseous phase. The review focuses on sampling, sample preparation and instrumental ... -
Application of a Fuzzy Logic Based Methodology to Validate the Hydrochemical Characterization and Determining Seasonal Influence of a Watershed Affected by Acid Mine Drainage
(MDPI, 2021-04)The Odiel River Basin, located in the Iberian Pyrite Belt (IPB), is heavily affected by acid mine drainage (AMD), which occurs when pyritic minerals from sulfide mining areas are exposed to atmospheric, hydrological or ... -
Applied methodology based on HEC-HMS for reservoir filling estimation due to soil erosion
(Sciendo, 2022)Authors propose a beneficial methodology for hydrological planning in their study. Prospective evaluations of the basins' net capacity can be done using the technique presented. The HEC-HMS (Hydrologic Modelling ... -
Architectural Significance of the Seokguram Buddhist Grotto in Gyeongju (Korea)
(MDPI, 2021)The purpose of this article is to disclose the hidden architectural proportions and true nature of the Korean national treasure in Seokguram Grotto, Gyeongju. The authors compare its features with those of other ancient ... -
Assessment of aerial thermography as a method of in situ measurement of radiant heat transfer in urban public spaces
(Elsevier, 2022)Urban public spaces are an essential part of the urban environment, supporting social relationships and pro- moting a healthy lifestyle among citizens. However, the high value of urban land has led to an over-urbanisation ... -
Ataque del anhídrido carbónico y el ácido sulfhídrico sobre pastas de cemento API clase H expuestas a aguas de formación salina
