Crystal structure of trans-dichlorido(4-nitroaniline-κN 1)(piperidine-κN)platinum(II)
2015
The packing of the title compound features N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking interactions, which form one-dimensional chains of molecules parallel to [001] further linked via N—H⋯O interactions.
Educación XX1 : revista de la Facultad de Educación
2016
Resumen basado en el de la publicación Título, resumen y palabras clave también en inglés Se indaga sobre las evidencias en torno a cómo se reciben en los centros escolares los equipamientos tecnológicos (el KidSmart en este caso). Se asume, a modo de hipótesis, que el grado de asimilación por parte de los miembros de la organización de la tecnología transferida, es un factor determinante del grado de uso. El trabajo de campo se realiza en los centros de educación infantil que participan en el proyecto «El Rincón del Ratón». Mediante grabaciones de clase, encuestas y observaciones se ha tratado de obtener evidencias sobre el problema de investigación. Los primeros resultados ponen de manifi…
Konfigurowanie granic gatunkowych a problem polityczności. Przypadek posthumanizmu i transhumanizmu
2017
Przedmiotem artykułu są teoriopolityczne rozważania na temat posthumanizmu. Jest to podejście, które zrywa z humanistycznym dogmatem, że człowiek jest bytem najważniejszym w rzeczywistości. Zamiast tego posthumanizm dowartościowuje byty pozaludzkie (naturalne, sztuczne, rzeczy), z którymi ludzie wchodzą w rozmaite interakcje. Autor uznał, że problematyka posthumanistyczna może być rozpatrywana w perspektywie biopolityki, która zajmuje się relacjami między polityką a życiem. Jednakże w odróżnieniu od wcześniejszych ujęć wiążących biopolitykę z kontrolą populacji posthumanizm stawia na szali żywotność gatunkową. W artykule przedstawiono konsekwencje takiego myślenia dla problemu polityczności…
Project-Based Learning: A Case for Situated Translation
2006
The author proposes replacing the folk theoretical ‘conduit’ view of learning that still predominates in Translator Education with a principled understanding of cognitive and learning processes for the design of learning events in Translator Education. A collaborative, project-based educational experience is presented by way of illustration. In conclusion, an argument is made for studying collaborative learning events to gain insight into the multi-facetted nature of the learning process as well as of the translation process itself.
Michelin : du culte du secret à la transparence?
2015
Transparency the ultimate virtue of society, the guarantee of truth (?), between right and duty, is often expressed in opposition to secret or even lie. Organizations are faced with and often trapped between these extremes. The Michelin Corporation that will serve as the basis for our analysis is often presented as the Corporation of secrecy. As a real myth in our collective consciousness, it illustrates the dual relationship between transparency and secrecy, which appeared to have been successful given its longevity and ranking among the largest French leading companies in terms of CSR. From the materiality of objects and spaces to intangible rhetoric, the Group comprehensive communication…
Optimisation through offshore – between reality and legality
2021
The study highlights the complete image of the characteristics regarding offshore areas, by taking into account the perspective to deploy new measures of fiscal transparency. The importance of such areas stems from the fact that world economies lose important sums of money, every year by default of taxes. This happens as a consequence of corporative international abuse of fiscal evasion and the relocation of the profit made by big companies. The sums resulted from erosion of national taxation bases, from fiscal evasion and fraud and other infringements connected with fiscal evasion (are often being transferred to offshore companies so that their illegal characteristics gets lost and after t…
Search for photonic signatures of gauge-mediated supersymmetry in 8TeV pp collisions with the ATLAS detector
2015
A search is presented for photonic signatures motivated by generalized models of gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking. This search makes use of 20.3 fb[superscript −1] of proton-proton collision data at √s = 8 TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector at the LHC, and explores models dominated by both strong and electroweak production of supersymmetric partner states. Four experimental signatures incorporating an isolated photon and significant missing transverse momentum are explored. These signatures include events with an additional photon, lepton, b-quark jet, or jet activity not associated with any specific underlying quark flavor. No significant excess of events is observed above the Stand…
Spatial and temporal variability of rainfall over the Republic of Djibouti from 1946 to 2017.
2021
20 pages; International audience; For the first time, the spatial and temporal variability of rainfall in the Republic of Djibouti is investigated using data from 14 weather stations over the period 1946–2017. Due to limited data availability, high-resolution long-term satellite rainfall products (CHIRPS, PERSIANN-CDR, TAMSATv3, ARC2) and ERA5 reanalysis also contribute to document time–space rainfall variability at monthly, seasonal and annual scales. Principal component analysis identifies two spatially coherent regions of rainfall variability in the east (coastal zone) and the west (inland zone) of the country. Annual rainfall amounts are everywhere very low (60–300 mm), but with contras…
New Marketing Tendencies in the Romanian Wine Industry
2020
Abstract In the last decade or so, the Romanian wine industry has changed and developed greatly, by the increase of wine producers, especially the niche producers, alongside the traditional, big, producers. The paper aims to understand the new tendencies in the field of marketing, that occur on the wine industry of Romania, as well as the changes that take place in the minds and lives of the consumers in the context of the online world, combined with new trends and technologies that can be used by the consumers. Secondly, the paper represents a secondary data analysis of the International and Romanian Wine Industry, in terms of production and consumption, we also presented a short profile o…
Stationary, Second Use Battery Energy Storage Systems and Their Applications: A Research Review
2021
The global demand for electricity is rising due to the increased electrification of multiple sectors of economic activity and an increased focus on sustainable consumption. Simultaneously, the share of cleaner electricity generated by transient, renewable sources such as wind and solar energy is increasing. This has made additional buffer capacities for electrical grids necessary. Battery energy storage systems have been investigated as storage solutions due to their responsiveness, efficiency, and scalability. Storage systems based on the second use of discarded electric vehicle batteries have been identified as cost-efficient and sustainable alternatives to first use battery storage syste…
