Copula-based clustering methods
(Springer International Publishing, 2017)We review some recent clustering methods based on copulas. Specifically, in the dissimilarity-based clustering framework, we describe and compare methods based on concordance or tail-dependence concept. An illustration is ... -
Antimicrobial effect of Picea abies extracts on E. coli growth
(2019)This study aims to investigate the e ect of essential oils extracted from wood residues of Picea abies on the growth of Escherichia coli. The essential oils were extracted by supercritical carbon dioxide, leading to a yield ... -
Eddy covariance raw data processing for CO2 and energy fluxes calculation at ICOS ecosystem stations
(2018)The eddy covariance is a powerful technique to estimate the surface-atmosphere exchange of different scalars at the ecosystem scale. The EC method is central to the ecosystem component of the Integrated Carbon Observation ... -
A Methodology for Improving Vegetation Representation and Health Exploiting a Semantic Robotic System and Its Dynamic Stability Control
(2018)Precision farming technologies have been increasingly recognized for their potential ability for improving agricultural productivity, reducing production cost, and minimizing damage to the environment. In this context, the ... -
Water requirements of short rotation poplar coppice: Experimental and modelling analyses across Europe
(2018)Poplars are among the most widely used short rotation woody coppice (SRWC) species but due to their assumed high water use, concerns have been raised with respect to large-scale exploitation and potentially detrimental ... -
Modeling time, probability, and configuration constraints for continuous cloud service certification
(ELSEVIER ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY, 2018)Cloud computing proposes a paradigm shift where resources and services are allocated, provisioned, and accessed at runtime and on demand. New business opportunities emerge for service providers and their customers, at a ... -
The Bank-Sovereign Nexus: Evidence from a non-Bailout Episode
(2019)We explore the interplay between sovereign and bank credit risk in a setting where Danish authorities first let two Danish banks default and then left the country's largest bank, Danske Bank, to recapitalize privately. We ... -
A Generalized Evaluation Framework for Multimedia Recommender Systems
(2018)With the widespread availability of media technologies, such as real-time streaming, new Internet-of-Thing devices and smart phones, multimedia data are extensively increased and the big multimedia data rapidly spread over ... -
ICOS eddy covariance flux-station site setup: a review
(2018)The Integrated Carbon Observation System Re-search Infrastructure aims to provide long-term, continuous observations of sources and sinks of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and water vapour. ... -
Reduced-order observers for nonlinear state estimation in flexible multibody systems
(Hindawi Limited, 2018)Modern control schemes adopted in multibody systems take advantage of the knowledge of a large set of measurements of the most important state variables to improve system performances. In the case of flexible-link multibody ... -
Numerical study of the interplay between thermo-topographic slope flow and synoptic flow on canopy transport processes
(2018)Canopy flow resulting from interaction between thermo-topographic slope flow and large-scale synoptic flow is very complicated and has been poorly understood. We apply a Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) turbulence ... -
Importance of reporting ancillary site characteristics, and management and disturbance information at ICOS stations
(2018)There are many factors that influence ecosystem scale carbon, nitrogen and greenhouse gas dynamics, including the inherent heterogeneity of soils and vegetation, anthropogenic management interventions, and biotic and abiotic ... -
The positioning cards: on affect, public design, and the common
(Springer London, 2018)In this paper, we present a design tool, the positioning cards that we have developed, validated, and used in different projects. These cards are built to allow CI4CG and Participatory Design researchers to discuss the ... -
Design of Engineered Elastomeric Substrate for Stretchable Active Devices and Sensors
(WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH, 2018)In the field of flexible electronics, emerging applications require biocompatible and unobtrusive devices, which can withstand different modes of mechanical deformation and achieve low complexity in the fabrication process. ... -
Ancillary vegetation measurements at ICOS ecosystem stations
(2018)The Integrated Carbon Observation System is a Pan-European distributed research infrastructure that has as its main goal to monitor the greenhouse gas balance of Europe. The ecosystem component of Integrated Carbon Observation ... -
Pushing digital automation of configure-to-order services in small and medium enterprises of the construction equipment industry: A design science research approach
(2019)In order to efficiently transform business processes (such as product design, product engineering, production, logistics, sales, deliveries, etc.) into digitally automated processes, new concepts have been introduced in ... -
Towards long-term standardised carbon and greenhouse gas observations for monitoring Europe's terrestrial ecosystems: a review
(2018)Research infrastructures play a key role in launching a new generation of integrated long-term, geographically distributed observation programmes designed to monitor climate change, better understand its impacts on global ... -
Standardisation of chamber technique for CO2, N2O and CH4 fluxes measurements from terrestrial ecosystems
(2018)Chamber measurements of trace gas fluxes between the land surface and the atmosphere have been conducted for almost a century. Different chamber techniques, including static and dynamic, have been used with varying degrees ... -
Quality, prices and production efficiency: an exploratory study of italian wines with appellation of origin
(2018)Wine is a complex and highly differentiated product of a very wide and heterogeneous compartment, where quality plays an important role in determining demand. Wine production in Italy is unique in the world and important ... -
Impact of CO2 storage flux sampling uncertainty on net ecosystem exchange measured by eddy covariance
(2018)Complying with several assumption and simplifications, most of the carbon budget studies based on eddy covariance (EC) measurements quantify the net ecosystem exchange (NEE) by summing the flux obtained by EC (FC) and the ...
