Spatial genetic structure in the saddled sea bream (Oblada melanura [Linnaeus, 1758]) suggests multi-scaled patterns of connectivity between protected and unprotected areas in the Western Mediterranean Sea
(2016-04-01)Marine protected areas (MPAs) and networks of MPAs are advocated worldwide for the achievement of marine conservation objectives. Although the knowledge about population connectivity is considered fundamental for the optimal ... -
The Effect of Biomass Physical Properties on Top-Lit Updraft Gasification of Woodchips
(2016-04-12)The performance of a top-lit updraft gasifier affected by biomass (pine wood) particle size, moisture content and compactness was studied in terms of the biochar yield, biomass burning rate, syngas composition and tar ... -
Seismic Response of Hybrid Systems with Metallic and Viscous Dampers
(2016-06-27)Metallic dampers can enhance structural performance by reducing seismically induced lateral displacements, and by reducing inelastic behavior of beams and columns. Limiting story drift also indirectly allows for mitigation ... -
Décomposition d’Images Fondée sur l’Analyse de la Régularité Locale: Application au Codage Hybride d’Image
