• Vibration Monitoring of the Mechanical Harvesting of Citrus to Improve Fruit Detachment Efficiency 

  Castro García, Sergio; Aragón-Rodríguez, Fernando; Sola Guirado, Rafael Rubén; Serrano, Antonio J.; Soria-Olivas, Emilio; Gil Ribes, Jesús (MDPI, 2019)

  The introduction of a mechanical harvesting process for oranges can contribute to enhancing farm profitability and reducing labour dependency. The objective of this work is to determine the spread of the vibration in citrus ...

• A Double Barrier Technique with Hydrotalcites for Pb Immobilisation from Electric Arc Furnace Dust 

  Lozano Lunar, Angélica; Fernández Ledesma, Enrique; Romero Esquinas, Álvaro; Jiménez Romero, José Ramón; Fernández Rodríguez, José María (MDPI, 2019)

  A new line of mortars incorporating hydrotalcites was developed. This research article shows the results of a study of a double barrier technique (DBT) for Pb immobilisation from electric arc furnace dust (EAFD) in mortars ...

• Modelling Runoff and Sediment Loads in a Developing Coastal Watershed of the US-Mexico Border 

  Gudino-Elizondo, Napoleon; Biggs, Trent W.; Bingner, Ronald L.; Langendoen, Eddy J.; Kretzschmar, Thomas; Taguas Ruiz, Encarnación; Taniguchi-Quan, Kristine T.; Liden, Douglas; Yuan, Yongping (MDPI, 2019)

  Urbanization can increase sheet, rill, gully, and channel erosion. We quantified the sediment budget of the Los Laureles Canyon watershed (LLCW), which is a mixed rural-urbanizing catchment in Northwestern Mexico, using ...

• Algorithmic cache of sorted tables for feature selection: Speeding up methods based on consistency and information theory measures 

  Arauzo Azofra, Antonio; Jiménez-Vílchez, Alfonso; Molina-Baena, José; Luque Rodríguez, María (Springer, 2019)

  Feature selection is a mechanism used in Machine Learning to re-duce the complexity and improve the speed of the learning process by usinga subset of features from the data set. There are several measures which areused to ...

• Assessment of the Accuracy of a Multi-Beam LED Scanner Sensor for Measuring Olive Canopies 

  Sola Guirado, Rafael Rubén; Bayano-Tejero, Sergio; Rodríguez Lizana, Antonio; Gil Ribes, Jesús; Miranda Fuentes, Antonio (MDPI, 2018)

  Canopy characterization has become important when trying to optimize any kind of agricultural operation in high-growing crops, such as olive. Many sensors and techniques have reported satisfactory results in these approaches ...
