• Vibration analysis of the fruit detachment process in late-season ‘Valencia’ orange with canopy shaker technology 

  Castro García, Sergio; Sola Guirado, Rafael Rubén; Gil Ribes, Jesús (2019)

  The mechanical harvesting of juice oranges can be achieved by the application of forced vibration to the tree canopy to detach fruit. Among the available harvesting technologies, canopy shaker systems have the advantage ...

• Fruit abscission pattern of ‘Valencia’ orange with canopy shaker system 

  Aragón-Rodríguez, Fernando; Castro García, Sergio; Sola Guirado, Rafael Rubén; Gil Ribes, Jesús (2019)

  Fruit detachment can occur due to natural causes or be mechanically performed by a combination of mechanical stresses that cause tissue breakage in the plant. Forced abscission should not coincide with natural abscission ...

• Modelling Ephemeral Gully Erosion from Unpaved Urban Roads: Equifinality and Implications for Scenario Analysis 

  Gudino-Elizondo, Napoleon; Biggs, Trent W.; Bingner, Ronald L.; Yuan, Yongping; Langendoen, Eddy J.; Taniguchi, Kristine T.; Kretzschmar, Thomas; Taguas Ruiz, Encarnación; Liden, Douglas (MDPI, 2018)

  Modelling gully erosion in urban areas is challenging due to difficulties with equifinality and parameter identification, which complicates quantification of management impacts on runoff and sediment production. We ...

• Wastes as Aggregates, Binders or Additions in Mortars: Selecting Their Role Based on Characterization 

  Brazao Farinha, Catarina; Brito, Jorge de; Veiga, Rosário; Fernández, J.M.; Jiménez, José Ramón; Romero Esquinas, Álvaro (MDPI, 2018)

  The production of waste has increased over the years and, lacking a recycle or recovery solution, it is forwarded to landfill. The incorporation of wastes in cement-based materials is a solution to reduce waste deposition. ...

• Recommendations for the Management of Construction and Demolition Waste in Treatment Plants 

  Barbudo Muñoz, M. Auxiliadora; Ayuso Muñoz, Jesús; Lozano, Angélica; Cabrera, Manuel; López Uceda, Antonio (MDPI, 2018)

  Construction and demolition waste consists approximately of one third waste generated in the European Union. The recycling of this stream waste will provide ecological and sustainable benefits. Recycled aggregates from ...
