Combining the Classification and Pharmacophore Approaches to Understand Homogeneous Olfactory Perceptions at Peripheral Level: Focus on Two Aroma Mixtures

The mechanisms involved in the homogeneous perception of odorant mixtures remain largely unknown.With the aim of enhancing knowledge about blending and masking mixture perceptions, we focused on structure-odor relationships by combining the classification and pharmacophore approaches.We built a dataset of about 5000 molecules and their related odor

An Iterative Refining Approach to Design the Control of Wave Energy Converters with Numerical Modeling and Scaled HIL Testing

The aim of this work is to show that a significant increase of the efficiency of a Wave Energy Converter (WEC) can be achieved already at an early design stage, through the choice of a turbine and control regulation, by means of an accurate Wave-to-Wire (W2W) modeling that couples the hydrodynamic response calibrated in a wave flume to a Hardware-I
