In the first chapter of this thesis, coauthored with Patrick Gaulé, we reexamine the widely held belief, known as the "European Paradox", that while European academic institutions are good at producing academic research outputs, they lag behind US academic ...
The present research improves the experimental and theoretical knowledge on the behaviour of structural elements made of ultra high performance fibre reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) with ordinary reinforcement. UHPFRC is a recently developed material with muc ...
The mitochondrial phospholipid cardiolipin plays an important role in cellular metabolism as exemplified by its involvement in mitochondrial energy production and apoptosis. Following its biosynthesis, cardiolipin is actively remodeled to achieve its final ...
The main objective of this research is in automating the initialization phase of the MEMS-IMZ/GPS data integration. The motivation for this study is the special case where the before mentioned sensors are worn on a body (e.g. of an athlete) and where the u ...
Data alone are worth almost nothing. While data collection is increasing exponentially worldwide, a clear distinction between retrieving data and obtaining knowledge has to be made. Data are retrieved while measuring phenomena or gathering facts. Knowledge ...
This article presents the focus of discussion of the 'Knowledge for Growth (K4G) Group' and the issues it addresses on the complex relationships between science, technology, innvation capacities and economic growth in the European context. ...

Within the current context of globalisation, trasnationalism has acquired importance as a social phenomenon and an object of study, since it shows the value that the diasporas' own decentralized mechanisms have in promoting development in the countries of ...
This article is about a breadth-first exploration of logical concepts in cryptography and their linguistic abstraction and model-theoretic combination in a comprehensive logical system, called CPL (for Cryptographic Protocol Logic). We focus on two fundame ...
In an empirical study, we provided (or not) pairs of students working in a remote collaborative learning situation with a knowledge awareness tool that provided learner A with learner B’s level of knowledge measured through a pre-test. We analyzed the effe ...
The creation of virtual reality applications and 3D environments is a complex task that requires good programming skills and expertise in computer graphics and many other disciplines. The complexity increases when we want to include complex entities such a ...
