Polymer Synthesis in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide

2003

It is current opinion of most of the people involved in supercritical fluids (SCFs) technology that as the end of the twentieth century has been devoted to enlarge exploitation of compressed gases in separation processes the beginning of the twenty-first will be mainly aimed to improve their utilisation as solvents for reactions.

Potential implementation of reservoir computing models based on magnetic skyrmions

2018

Reservoir Computing is a type of recursive neural network commonly used for recognizing and predicting spatio-temporal events relying on a complex hierarchy of nested feedback loops to generate a memory functionality. The Reservoir Computing paradigm does not require any knowledge of the reservoir topology or node weights for training purposes and can therefore utilize naturally existing networks formed by a wide variety of physical processes. Most efforts prior to this have focused on utilizing memristor techniques to implement recursive neural networks. This paper examines the potential of skyrmion fabrics formed in magnets with broken inversion symmetry that may provide an attractive phy…

Dolor abdominal crónico en la edad pediátrica: implicación de factores clínicos, ambientales y psicosociales. Desarrollo de un programa informático e…

2015

El dolor abdominal crónico (orgánico o funcional) es una causa frecuente de dolor en la infancia, suponiendo hasta el 25% de las derivaciones desde atención primaria a gastroenterología. Es un fenómeno complejo en el que intervienen factores biológicos, psicológicos y sociales en su cronificación. Por ello, el objetivo de este trabajo fue analizar los principales factores clínicos, ambientales y psicosociales relacionados con el DAC (dolor abdominal crónico) en escolares y adolescentes, en la consulta de gastroenterología infantil del Hospital Clínico Universitario de Valencia, así como, desarrollar un programa informático específico útil para el manejo de estos pacientes. Se diseñó un estu…

A distributed dynamic load balancer and its implementation on multi-transputer systems for molecular dynamics simulation

1990

Abstract A new and efficient approach is described to the dynamic load-balancing problem which is central in concurrent computing. A transputer-based implementation is tested on a molecular dynamics simulation of spinodal phase separation.

Testing for external sustainability under a monetary integration process. Does the Lawson doctrine apply to Europe?

2015

Monetary integration, and more specifically, the creation of a monetary union in Europe, raises new economic questions concerning its functioning and governance. In particular, we focus on the implications of high and persistent current account deficits for the economic performance of monetary union members in the medium term. Recent literature has argued that conventional measures of external sustainability are misleading because they omit the effects of capital variations on net foreign asset positions due to, among others, stock or debt market crises. In this paper we revisit external sustainability making use of the database developed by Lane and Milesi-Ferretti (2007) that includes the…

The Current State of Phyto-Coenological Research in the “Iron Gates” Danube Gorge (Banat, Romania)

2014

Abstract The author of the study writes a concise history of the phyto-coenological research conducted previously in the Danube Gorge; he notes the papers and the respective publishing years for the botanists who contributed with research to the knowledge of the cormophyte vegetation along the aforementioned sector of the Danube River. 55 important papers are highlighted, authored by fifty-four specialists in the years 1931-2006.

Repercussions of Economic and Social Factors on Pension Systems

2013

Abstract Economic and social developments in recent years have left serious marks on pension systems. As forecasts for the following period are bleak, the need for uniting the efforts of public authorities with those of the business environment, research institutes and the academic community in order to identify viable solutions for both the present and the future, becomes increasingly obvious. Together they can identify remedies and contribute to the popularization of a problem whose consequences, once known, can be counteracted. The paper drafted, by studying the literature, confronts a number of common issues faced by pension systems in the current period and emphasizes the possibility o…

THE INTEGRATION OF THIRD-COUNTRY NATIONALS IN THE LATVIAN EDUCATION ENVIRONMENT: THE CURRENT SITUATION AND KEY ISSUES

2018

Due to the European migrant crisis, the issue concerning the integration of refugees, third-country nationals, into Latvia’s society has become increasingly topical in the last years. Since a lot of refugees are under 18, schools also must be ready to accept learners of other nationalities and cultures and help them integrate into the community of the host country. According to studies conducted in Latvia, the system of education needs to change the attitude towards the integration of immigrants in the school environment. Therefore, the incorporation of inter-cultural experience in the curricula of teacher-training institutions is a significant factor that could enable pre-service teachers …
