Optical system for automatic color monitoring in heterogeneous media during vinification processes
2019
Abstract Wine is one of the most important food products worldwide. However, the application of technologies to the winemaking process can improve. An RGBC optical sensor, used to measure color intensity and shade, was developed and tested in real environments. It is able to measure samples without filtering by offering the color intensity and shade of a filtered sample. Color intensity can be measured within the range of 1.5 and 9.5 color points with an approximate 3% error. The model for shade can be applied to red wines with an approximate 1% error. It can operate directly in cellars under real operating conditions. It avoids collecting samples, and filtering and measuring in a spectroph…
The body talks: Sensorimotor communication and its brain and kinematic signatures
2019
Human communication is a traditional topic of research in many disciplines such as psychology, linguistics and philosophy, all of which mainly focused on language, gestures and deictics. However, these do not constitute the sole channels of communication, especially during online social interaction, where instead an additional critical role may be played by sensorimotor communication (SMC). SMC refers here to (often subtle) communicative signals embedded within pragmatic actions - for example, a soccer player carving his body movements in ways that inform a partner about his intention, or to feint an adversary; or the many ways we offer a glass of wine, rudely or politely. SMC is a natural …
Propaganda y mitografía en el cine de la guerra civil española (1936-1939)
2007
La guerra civil española puso en marcha la maquinaria de propaganda más audaz conocida hasta ese momento. Fue decisiva la tensión dramática de los totalitarismos entre sí y del nazismo y fascismo respecto a las democracias occidentales, mas también influyó el estado de desarrollo de los medios de comunicación y representación (revistas ilustradas, nuevas técnicas fotográficas, circulación de imágenes en movimiento a través de los noticiarios¿). El presente artículo fija su atención en dos aspectos principales: en primer lugar, el papel de que la cinematografía nacional e internacional sobre la guerra civil desempeñó en fijar algunos géneros y motivos de la representación de la guerra en Occ…
Spectral WENO schemes with Adaptive Mesh Refinement for models of polydisperse sedimentation
2012
The sedimentation of a polydisperse suspension with particles belonging to N size classes (species) can be described by a system of N nonlinear, strongly coupled scalar first-order conservation laws. Its solutions usually exhibit kinematic shocks separating areas of different composition. Based on the so-called secular equation [J. Anderson, Lin. Alg. Appl. 246, 49–70 (1996)], which provides access to the spectral decomposition of the Jacobian of the flux vector for this class of models, Burger et al. [J. Comput. Phys. 230, 2322–2344 (2011)] proposed a spectral weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) scheme for the numerical solution of the model. It is demonstrated that the efficiency …
Elementary Newtonian Mechanics
2010
This chapter deals with the kinematics and the dynamics of a finite number of mass points that are subject to internal, and possibly external, forces, but whose motions are not further constrained by additional conditions on the coordinates. Constraints such as requiring some mass points to follow given curves in space, to keep their relative distance fixed, or the like, are introduced in Chap. 2. Unconstrained mechanical systems can be studied directly by means of Newton’s equations and do not require the introduction of new, generalized coordinates that incorporate the constraints and are dynamically independent. This is what is meant by “elementary” in the heading of this chapter — thoug…
Kinematic splitting algorithm for fluid–structure interaction in hemodynamics
2013
Abstract In this paper we study a kinematic splitting algorithm for fluid–structure interaction problems. This algorithm belongs to the class of loosely-coupled fluid–structure interaction schemes. We will present stability analysis for a coupled problem of non-Newtonian shear-dependent fluids in moving domains with viscoelastic boundaries. Fluid flow is described by the conservation laws with nonlinearities in convective and diffusive terms. For simplicity of presentation the structure is modelled by the generalized string equation, but the results presented in the paper may be generalized to more complex structure models. The arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian approach is used in order to take…

Structural highs formation and their relationship to sedimentary basins in the north Sicily continental margin (southern Tyrrhenian Sea): implication…
2005
Two high-penetration seismic profiles across the continental margin of north Sicily (southern Tyrrhenian Sea) have been interpreted to construct a crustal section across the margin and to provide a three-dimensional perspective on the upper crustal setting of the Solunto High and its structural relationships with the adjacent Cefalù Basin. Crystalline rocks of the Kabilian-Calabrian Units (KCU) are recognized in the Solunto High region and farther to the north. The KCU body is tectonically superimposed onto sedimentary rocks pertaining to the Sicilian-Maghrebian Units (SMU) and the Solunto High corresponds to the thrust sheet culmination. Its occurrence in the Solunto High demonstrates that…
El sistema de continuidad como proceso unificador
2007
El sistema de continuidad es un procedimiento de construcción de relatos audiovisuales que tiene como fundamento la causalidad narrativa y un conjunto de normas de elaboración, especialmente en el montaje, cuya finalidad es mostrar al espectador un desarrollo argumental lógico que se desarrolla en un espacio-tiempo diegético coherente. La continuidad, está sometida a un modelo ideológico de representación que condiciona la percepción. La continuidad no es, por lo tanto, un concepto absoluto, sino que evoluciona a lo largo del tiempo. Sin embargo, el sistema de continuidad permanece vigente porque garantiza el predominio de la cadena causal y la inmersión del espectador en el universo diegét…
