Managing Human Factors to Reduce Organisational Risk in Industry
2018
[EN] Human factors are intrinsically involved at virtually any level of most industrial/business activities, and may be responsible for several accidents and incidents, if not correctly identified and managed. Focusing on the significance of human behaviour in industry, this article proposes a multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM)-based approach to support organizational risk assessment in industrial environments. The decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) method is proposed as a mathematical framework to evaluate mutual relationships within a set of human factors involved in industrial processes, with the aim of highlighting priorities of intervention. A case study relat…
Left braces and the quantum Yang-Baxter equation
2019
[EN] Braces were introduced by Rump in 2007 as a useful tool in the study of the set-theoretic solutions of the Yang¿Baxter equation. In fact, several aspects of the theory of finite left braces and their applications in the context of the Yang¿Baxter equation have been extensively investigated recently. The main aim of this paper is to introduce and study two finite brace theoretical properties associated with nilpotency, and to analyse their impact on the finite solutions of the Yang¿Baxter equation.
A Ciliary Motility Index for Activity Measurement in Cell Cultures With Respiratory Syncytial Virus
2018
[EN] Background: The respiratory epithelium is frequently infected by the respiratory syncytial virus, resulting in inflammation, a reduction in cilia activity and an increase in the production of mucus. Methods: In this study, an automatic method has been proposed to characterize the ciliary motility from cell cultures by means of a motility index using a dense optical flow algorithm. This method allows us to determine the ciliary beat frequency (CBF) together with a ciliary motility index of the cells in the cultures. The object of this analysis is to automatically distinguish between normal and infected cells in a culture. Results: The method was applied in 2 stages. It was concluded fro…
New land valuation criteria after the Spanish 2011 Valuation of Land Regulation : the objectivation of building expectations in rural land
2013
The land valuation regime has undergone one of its most important modifications at the hands of the 2008 Land Act and its 2011 Regulation. According to the so-called objectivity principle - which defines all established methods for the new basic situations of land - and according to the stated prohibition of taking into consideration building expectations arising from granted planning permission, the fact is that the existence of circumstances that are not a natural consequence of landowner investments made on the property is easily deducible. This is inconsistent with the spirit of the Land Act in force contained in its Explanatory Memorandum.
El efecto mediador y moderador de la internacionalización en la relación entre los sistemas de control de gestión y el compromiso con la innovación
2019
La literatura contable revela resultados contradictorios al evaluar el efecto que los diferentes usos de los sistemas de control de gestión (SCG) tienen en la innovación. Siguiendo el marco teórico establecido por Simons (1995), este trabajo prueba el efecto que la internacionalización, bien sea directo, mediador o moderador, tiene en la relación entre el uso interactivo de los SCG y el compromiso de las empresas con la innovación. Tomando una muestra de 231 organizaciones del sector agroalimentario español, los resultados obtenidos ponen de manifiesto la ausencia de una relación directa entre el uso interactivo del conjunto de herramientas de SCG y el compromiso con la innovación. Del mism…
TRADITION AND MODERNITY OF CATALAN VAULTS: HISTORICAL AND STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS
2012
Il lavoro analizza da diversi punti di vista un particolare tipo di strutture voltate noto come volte catalane (bóveda tabicada) e la tecnica costruttiva correlata. Le volte catalane sono volte realizzate da strati alterni di mattoni e malta, caratterizzate da un esiguo spessore in relazione alle altre dimensioni. Il primo passo presentato nel lavoro è quello di investigare tutti gli aspetti storici al fine di inquadrare sia la tipologia che la tecnica costruttiva correlata all'interno della storia dell'architettura e di individuare le ragioni di un così grande successo lungo i secoli. Successivamente, è stata effettuata una campagna di indagini sperimentali, che completa una precedente, su…

Simultaneous determination of eight underivatised biogenic amines in fish by solid phase extraction and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometr…
2010
Biogenic amines on fish tissue are formed as a result of bacterial contamination and spoilage during storage. A new method based on liquid chromatography (LC) and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) using a triple quadrupole (QqQ) analyser was developed for the analysis of eight biogenic amines (cadaverine, histamine, phenylethylamine, putrescine, spermine, spermidine, tyramine and tryptamine) in fish tissues. Sample preparation was performed by extraction with trichloroacetic acid 5% and solid phase extraction clean up with STRATA X cartridge. The MS/MS method was validated and compared with a method based on the analysis of dansyl derivatives by LC and fluorescence detector (FD). MS/MS achie…
Chemical speciation of nucleotide 5′-monophosphates in the presence of biogenic amines
2001
The interaction of adenosine-, uridine-, inosine- and guanosine-5’-monophosphates with protonated ethylenediamine, putrescine, cadaverine, spermidine and spermine, was studied potentiometrically, a...
