Insights into pine wilt disease
Pine Wilt Disease caused by B. xylophilus threatens pine forests worldwide. • B. mucronatus exhibits low pathogenicity but may affect stressed or weakened trees. • Genomic and proteomic analyses reveal species-specific differences in virulence. • Climate change increases pathogenicity and distribution of both nematodes species. • Fast and reliable detection methods are essential for Pine Wilt Disease management. Pine wilt disease (PWD), caused by…
Unmasking speed curve anomalies in team sports
Monitoring high-speed displacements in team sports commonly relies on maximal values, often referred to as Peak Match Speed (PMS). These values are widely used to guide training prescription, injury-prevention strategies, and performance profiling. However, PMS metrics may be distorted by anomalous events, such as tackles or collisions, which generate implausible speed-time patterns and compromise the accuracy of player monitoring. The purpose of…
Sensor Cell Network for Pressure, Temperature and Position Detection on Wheelchair Users
This work proposes an optical sensing network to monitor pressure and temperature in specific areas of a wheelchair to prevent pressure ulcers and to monitor the position of the wheelchair user by analyzing its pressure distribution. The sensing network is composed of six optical fiber Bragg grating (FBG)-based sensor cells. Each sensor cell is built from a polylactic acid (PLA) base and has two FBGs, one embedded in epoxy resin to monitor pressu…
Atmospheric electric field measurements in urban environment and the pollutant aerosol weekly dependence
The weekly dependence of pollutant aerosols in the urban environment of Lisbon (Portugal) is inferred from the records of atmospheric electric field at Portela meteorological station (3847N, 908W). Measurements were made with a Bendorf electrograph. The data set exists from 1955 to 1990, but due to the contaminating effect of the radioactive fallout during 1960 and 1970s, only the period between 1980 and 1990 is considered here. Using a relative …
