(Elsevier B.V., 2020)
Arboviral diseases caused by dengue (DENV), Zika (ZIKV) and chikungunya (CHIKV) viruses represent a major public health problem worldwide, especially in tropical areas where millions of infections occur every year. The aim ...
Early characteristics and predictors of clinical severity in Autism Spectrum Disorder
(Universidad CES, 2019)
Significant efforts have been made to detect Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD) during the first years of life, with positive effects on the prognosis of children. However, in countries such as Colombia early identification ...
An exact MINLP model for optimal location and sizing of DGs in distribution networks: A general algebraic modeling system approach
(Ain Shams University, 2019)
This paper addresses the classical problem of optimal location and sizing of distributed generators (DGs) in radial distribution networks by presenting a mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) model. To solve such ...
Economic Dispatch of BESS and renewable generators in DC microgrids using voltage-dependent load models
(MDPI AG, 2019)
This paper addresses the optimal dispatch problem for battery energy storage systems (BESSs) in direct current (DC) mode for an operational period of 24 h. The problem is represented by a nonlinear programming (NLP) model ...
Effect of a commercial air valve on the rapid filling of a single pipeline: A numerical and experimental analysis
(MDPI AG, 2019)
The filling process in water pipelines produces pressure surges caused by the compression of air pockets. In this sense, air valves should be appropriately designed to expel sufficient air to avoid pipeline failure. Recent ...
Influence of vehicular traffic on environmental noise spectrum in the tourist route of Santa Marta City
(Elsevier Ltd, 2019)
Transportation demands large amounts of fuel. In particular, road transport greatly contributes to both criteria air pollutants and noise within cities. The influence of vehicular traffic on the environmental noise spectrum ...
