Contribution of observed multi frequency spectrum of Alfvén waves to coronal heating
2019
Context. Whilst there are observational indications that transverse magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves carry enough energy to maintain the thermal structure of the solar corona, it is not clear whether such energy can be efficiently and effectively converted into heating. Phase-mixing of Alfvén waves is considered a candidate mechanism, as it can develop transverse gradient where magnetic energy can be converted into thermal energy. However, phase-mixing is a process that crucially depends on the amplitude and period of the transverse oscillations, and only recently have we obtained a complete measurement of the power spectrum for transverse oscillations in the corona. Aims. We aim to investig…
Las penúltimas razones de la moralidad en Tugendhat
2017
RESUMEN. El trabajo explora críticamente la idea de una justificación débil o penúltima de la moral enmarcándola en el conjunto de la filosofía de Tugendhat, reordenan do sus escritos éticos y discriminando los diversos aspectos que incluye dicha idea. Entre ellos, revisa el concepto formal de moral, ligado a los sentimientos, antes de centrarse en el punto crucial: la fundamentación de la ética moderna. Aquí se distingue, por un lado, la justificación comparativa de un contractualismo igualitario frente a otras alternativas teóricas y, por otro, los motivos que pueden llevar (more heideggeriano, en realidad) a un individuo autónomo a entenderse en términos morales. ABSTRACT. This paper exp…
Nozīmes veidošana attēlos: lingvistiskā un paralingvistiskā perspektīva
2021
Darba mērķis ir izpētīt, kā attēlu nozīmi iespējams interpretēt noteiktā kontekstā. Pētījums reaģē uz galējās interpretācijas problemātiku un ierosina skatīt Čārlza Pīrsa zīmju teoriju kā instrumentu, kas ļauj analizēt nozīmes radīšanas un interpretācijas procesualitāti noteiktas situācijas un kultūras kontekstā. Tiek pētīti četri atšķirīgi attēlu gadījumi (Hilma af Klinta, Sajs Tvomblijs, Gerhards Rihters un Vija Celmiņa), piemērojot mainīgos konteksta lielumus un Pīrsa zīmju klasifikācijas. Vijas Celmiņas intervijas fonētiskā un runātā diskursa analīze liecina, ka mākslinieces runātais teksts var attīstīt uztvērēja priekšzinās…
Facilitators of and Barriers to Sustainable Development in Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises: A Descriptive Exploratory Study in Romania
2021
In the context of growing concerns regarding the deterioration of the environment and the increase in social inequalities, the concept of sustainability emerged as a response of companies, in order to contribute to community goodwill. The drivers and obstacles for the businesses engaging in sustainable policies have been explored at large by scientific literature. However, research gaps were observed, namely regarding SMEs, that tend to have a less formal and more fragmented approach to sustainability. The goal of our study is to determine the main barriers and facilitators for sustainability that Romanian SMEs face, and the connections between them and with the firms’ characteristics. Our …
Copulation duration, but not paternity share, potentially mediates inbreeding avoidance in Drosophila montana
2014
Studying the incidence of inbreeding avoidance is important for understanding the evolution of mating systems, especially in the context of mate choice for genetic compatibility. We investigated whether inbreeding avoidance mechanisms have evolved in the malt fly, Drosophila montana, by measuring mating latency (a measure of male attractiveness), copulation duration, days to remating, offspring production, and the proportion of offspring sired by the first (P1) and second (P2) male to mate in full-sibling and unrelated pairs. SNP markers were used for paternity analysis and for calculating pairwise relatedness values (genotype sharing) between mating pairs. We found 18 % inbreeding depressi…
Le cheminement des étudiantsdans les écoles supérieures d’art
2003
International audience; L’article porte sur le cheminement des étudiants des écoles supérieures d’art (autrefois écoles des beaux-arts).Il s’agit tout d’abord de présenter les singularités de l’enseignement supérieur artistique par rapport aux autressecteurs de l’enseignement supérieur. Dans un deuxième temps, le recensement du recrutement social etscolaire des écoles révèle une forte hétérogénéité des établissements. Enfin, l’analyse longitudinale desparcours de 1 570 étudiants inscrits en première année montre que la réussite des études artistiques dépenddavantage du contexte d’étude que de l’héritage culturel.
Alumnado femenino en las enseñanzas de artes plásticas y diseño en el sistema educativo público español 1940-2015
2018
Resumen: El presente artículo se encarga de analizar la incorporación del alumnado femenino a la enseñanza de Artes Plásticas y Diseño dentro de un marco temporal referenciado que abarca desde el final de la Guerra Civil española hasta la actualidad. El propósito es examinar la escasa evolución de la mujer dentro del sistema educativo en una etapa marcada por la adquisición de derechos. Se pretende analizar social y cualitativamente el lugar que la mujer ocupaba y ocupa en la configuración de un sistema educativo complejo, en nuestra historia reciente. En este contexto se analizan las especialidades artísticas más demandadas por el sexo femenino en las enseñanzas de bachillerato, formación …
A Comparative Analysis of the Social Performance of Global and Local Berry Supply Chains
2016
The goal of this paper is twofold: to comparatively analyze the social performance of global and local berry supply chains and to explore the ways in which the social dimension is embedded in the overall performance of food supply chains. To achieve this goal, the social performance of five global and local food supply chains in two countries are analyzed: wild blueberry supply chains in Latvia and cultivated raspberry supply chains in Serbia. The study addresses two research questions: (1) What is the social performance of the local and global supply chains? (2) How can references to context help improve understanding of the social dimension and social performance of food supply chains? To…
A Social Epistemological Inquiry into Biases in Journal Peer Review
2017
In this paper, I examine journal peer review by focusing on factors that potentially hamper its sound functioning. I argue that scientific literature is not only skewed by the individual level biases of reviewers acting as gatekeepers, but also by the institutional context in which peer review operates. I show that peer review and its efficacy in improving the quality of published work should not be evaluated without heeding the different forms of academic publishing and the role that publishing plays in academic career development.
Inflammatory Biomarkers in Febrile Seizure: A Comprehensive Bibliometric, Review and Visualization Analysis.
2021
Background: Inflammatory markers association with many diseases is the subject of many articles and reviews. This study presents a comprehensive bibliometric review and visualization analysis of inflammatory biomarkers (IB) in the context of febrile seizure (FS) patients. Methods: The study focused on IB in FS using (1) bibliometric analysis specific indicators and maps in order to analyze and present the network of authors, journals, universities, and countries, and (2) automated literature screening and unsupervised clustering approach for filtering and topic cluster identification. Results: We conducted a literature mining search on FS research, specifically IB in the context of FS, usin…
