Reflexiones al final de un inicio: estudio de asociación entre variables sociodemográficas y tipo d
2019
Objectives The aim of our work is to approach types of childbirth at the end of pregnancy from a sociodemographic point of view, w ith special emphasis in the number of C sections. Material and Method The birth data in Spain provided by the National Institute of Statistics has been analyzed. Results The results obtained from crossing the variables show that there are social determinants that should be considered in order to better understand the process of childbirth. Discussion Our approach goes beyond the mere description and aims to show a causality that should be included in obstetric protocols. Conclusion Health workers must be aware of the personal circumstances of the patients so tha…
An Analytical Step-by-Step Procedure to Derive the Flexural Response of RC Sections in Compression
2013
This paper proposes an analysis procedure able to determine the flexural response of rectangular symmetrically reinforced concrete sections subjected to axial load and uniaxial bending. With respect to the usual numerical approaches, based on the fibre decomposition method, this procedure is based on the use of analytical expressions of the contributions to the equilibrium given by the longitudinal reinforcement and the concrete region in compression, which depend on the neutral axis depth and the curvature at each analysis step. The formulation is developed in dimensionless terms, after a preliminary definition of the geometrical and mechanical parameters involved, so that the results are …
