Irritative and sensory disturbances in oral implantology. Literature review.
2010
The aim of this study was to review irritative and sensory disturbances following placement of dental implants. A literature search was made of PubMed for articles published between 2000 and 2010. Studies that reported sensory disturbances directly caused by the placement of dental implants were included. Sensory deficits or trigeminal neuropathy are caused by damage to the third branch of the trigeminal nerve du-ring surgery. This manifests in the immediate postoperative period as a sensory deficit not usually associated with pain and generally transient. The literature reviewed reported irritative and sensory disturbances caused during surgery, after surgery, and as a result of complicati…
What employability for higher education students?
2020
International audience; The Bologna process has contributed to redefining the concept of employability in higher education policies. In parallel, the professionalisation movement of French higher education has become more pronounced, notably through the development of work placements within the university curricula. In this article, we propose to re-examine the definition of employability of the ‘dominant’ discourse which is strongly centred on a competency-based approach and individualisation. We highlight the importance of having a broader definition of employability by integrating subjective dimension of employability and students' representations of the world of work. Based on an origin…
Carnaval y música: una breve semblanza de la Tuna Compostelana de 1888
2021
At the end of the 19th century, Spanish carnivals have been marked by the participation of the different tunas or also known as, estudiantinas. These groups achieved significant relevance in Galicia, especially in the city of Compostela, which, year after year, encouraged and supported the formation of groups of this nature to liven up the carnivals in the different Spanish cities. Although, different from its predecessors, the Santiago Tuna of 1888 ventured and made its mark in history, thanks to its intrepidity in having been the first Galician group that crossed the borders and enlivened the carnivals in the cities of the neighboring country, Portugal. This research, approached from a hi…
Rewriting fairy tales: new challenge in creativity in the classroom
2011
¿Qué hace que un cuento de hadas sea tan duradero? ¿Por qué estos han sobrevivido durante cientos de años y seguirán haciéndolo por muchos más, cuando nuestros nietos lleguen a ser abuelos? ¿Por qué personas de todas las edades los disfrutan tanto? ¿Es porque los cuentos de hadas reflexionan y transmiten de una manera sencilla y concisa profundas verdades universales que grandes novelistas han luchado por expresar a lo largo de cientos de páginas? ¿O es porque nos retrotraen al reino mágico de la infancia y ofrecen la oportunidad de escapar de la dura realidad? ¿Es porque hablan de arquetipos con los que todos podemos identificarnos o porque cuentan que, al final, el bien siempre triunfa so…
Las cuatro muertes de Cleonice: poder, sexo, violencia y fantasmas
2019
Greek tradition links the death of regent Pausanias of Sparta with ghosts. In this paper, we focus on the well-known episode that revolves around Pausanias himself and a Byzantine maiden and is transmitted by Aristodemus, Plutarch and Pausanias Periegetes. The multiplicity of versions demands a comparative analysis, which we carry out taking into account the three spaces where the narrative action takes place (civic, intimate and ritual spaces). Results indicate a concordance between Plutarch and Pausanias Periegetes, as well as a dissonance between them and Aristodemus. This difference especially affects the narrative treatment of the maiden, a ghost properly so-called in Plutarch and Paus…
Brand placement en videojuegos con y sin realidad virtual: eficacia en el consumidor adolescente
2019
El veloz desarrollo de la tecnología ha propiciado cambios en la forma EN QUE SE comunican no solo los individuos, sino también las empresas. Un claro ejemplo es la publicidad, que ha tenido que acudir a estrategias menos tradicionales. Es el caso del brand placement (BPL), una estrategia publicitaria poco convencional que consiste en emplazar marcas de manera integrada y poco intrusiva en contextos no propios de la publicidad. Aunque se originó en el cine, actualmente su uso se ha extendido a otros medios, como los videojuegos, donde la presencia de marcas es cada vez más notoria. Se trata de un sector en auge a nivel mundial, europeo y español, y una novedosa forma de entretenimiento, lo …
I hate my workplace but I am very attached to it: workplace attachment style
2017
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate whether different patterns of workplace attachment exist and to explore the relations between adult attachment styles and the level of workplace attachment. Design/methodology/approach Participants were 351 Italian employees who completed a questionnaire composed of the Workplace Attachment Scale and the Relationship Questionnaire. Data were analyzed using correspondence analysis. Findings The results showed that high scores on workplace attachment correlated significantly with secure attachment style, while low scores correlated with insecure attachment styles. These results shed light on different workplace attachment styles. Research l…
Robust H∞ sliding mode control with pole placement for a fluid power electrohydraulic actuator (EHA) system
2014
Published version of an article in the journal: International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s00170-014-5910-8 In this paper, we exploit the sliding mode control problem for a fluid power electrohydraulic actuator (EHA) system. To characterize the nonlinearity of the friction, the EHA system is modeled as a linear system with a system uncertainty. Practically, it is assumed that the system is also subject to the load disturbance and the external noise. An integral sliding mode controller is proposed to design. The advanced techniques such as the H ∞ control and the regional pole placement are employed to derive t…
Who can go back to work when the COVID-19 pandemic remits?
2020
AbstractThis paper seeks to determine which workers affected by lockdown measures can return to work when a government decides to apply lockdown exit strategies. This system, which we call Sequential Selective Multidimensional Decision (SSMD), involves deciding sequentially, by geographical areas, sectors of activity, age groups and immunity, which workers can return to work at a given time according to the epidemiological criteria of the country as well as that of a group of reference countries, used as a benchmark, that have suffered a lower level of lockdown de-escalation strategies. We apply SSMD to Spain, based on affiliation to the Social Security system prior to the COVID-19 pandemic…
Impact of COVID-19 pandemic on mobility in ten countries and associated perceived risk for all transport modes.
2021
The restrictive measures implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic have triggered sudden massive changes to travel behaviors of people all around the world. This study examines the individual mobility patterns for all transport modes (walk, bicycle, motorcycle, car driven alone, car driven in company, bus, subway, tram, train, airplane) before and during the restrictions adopted in ten countries on six continents: Australia, Brazil, China, Ghana, India, Iran, Italy, Norway, South Africa and the United States. This cross-country study also aims at understanding the predictors of protective behaviors related to the transport sector and COVID-19. Findings hinge upon an online survey con…
