Uncoupling of General Linear Multi-degree-of-freedom Structural and Mechanical Systems Through Quasi-diagonalization

Abstract This paper develops a fundamental result in linear algebra by providing the necessary and sufficient conditions for the simultaneous quasi-diagonalization of two symmetric matrices and two skew-symmetric matrices by a real orthogonal congruence. This result is used to study the uncoupling of general linear multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) structural and mechanical systems described by arbitrary damping and stiffness matrices through quasi-diagonalization, and real orthogonal...

Phenolic Content and Antioxidant Potential of Wine Extracts

Background/Objective: Phenolic compounds are considered to be the most important parameters of wine quality, contributing not only to its organoleptic characteristics, but to various health benefits associated with wine consumption. Although these are successfully extracted from grapes and winemaking by-products, there is no data on extraction from wine itself. This is particularly interesting in light of the fact that the variability of wine polyphenols is not only attributed...

Use of Eye-Tracking Technology to Determine Differences Between Perceptual and Actual Navigational Performance

This study uses eye-tracking technology (ETT) to investigate discrepancies between seafarers’ perceived and actual performance during simulated maritime operations. The primary objective is to explore how misperceptions regarding the use of navigational tools—such as visual observation, radar, and ECDIS—may contribute to discrepancies in situational awareness, which is critical for safe navigation. By comparing participants’ self-reported perceptions with objective data recorded by ETT, the study...

Public knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding antibiotics use and resistance in Montenegro

Abstract A drug consumption monitoring revealed that Montenegro is one of the major consumers of antimicrobial drugs in Europe. The aim of this study is to obtain the first data on the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of the general population in Montenegro regarding antibiotics use. This cross-sectional study was designed according to the methodology of Eurobarometer survey on antimicrobial resistance, created by the European Commission. The standardized questionnaire was conducted...

From Traditional Typing to Genomic Precision: Whole-Genome Sequencing of Listeria monocytogenes Isolated from Refrigerated Foods in Chile

Ready-to-eat (RTE) foods are the most common sources of Listeria monocytogenes transmission. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) enhances the investigation of foodborne outbreaks by enabling the tracking of pathogen sources and the prediction of genetic traits related to virulence, stress, and antimicrobial resistance, which benefit food safety management. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of WGS in the typing of 16 L. monocytogenes strains isolated from refrigerated foods in Chile, highlighting...

A Knowledge-Driven Framework for a Decision Support Platform in Sustainable Viticulture: Integrating Climate Data and Supporting Stakeholder Collaboration

Viticulture in Montenegro faces significant challenges due to fragmented data management, limited access to high-resolution climate predictions, and the lack of systematic integration between stakeholders. This study addresses these issues by proposing a knowledge-driven system architecture that consolidates climate and phenology data, facilitates multi-level data sharing, and supports informed decision-making for sustainable vineyard management. Using Montenegro as a case study, the proposed decision...
