Riming of Graupel: Wind Tunnel Investigations of Collection Kernels and Growth Regimes
2009
Abstract Laboratory experiments were carried out in the vertical wind tunnel in Mainz, Germany, to study the collision coalescence growth of single spherical ice particles having initial radii between 290 and 380 μm while they were freely floated in a laminar flow containing a cloud of supercooled droplets with radii between 10 and 20 μm. The experiments were performed in a temperature range between −8 and −12°C, where riming proceeds in the atmosphere, and with cloud liquid water contents lying between 0.9 and 1.6 g m−3 (i.e., values typically found in mixed-phase clouds). The collection kernels were calculated from the mass increase of the rimed ice particles and the average liquid water …
Cloud Particle Interactions
2010
In Chapter 10, we discussed the behavior of isolated cloud particles in sorne detai1. Now we shall consider their hydrodynamic interactions, with a view to providing a quantitative assessment of the processes of particle growth by collision and coalescence, and of collisional breakup. We shall first treat the collision problem for drops of radii less than about 500 μm which, in accordance with our previous description of drop distortion in Section 10.3.2, may be regarded as rigid spheres (at least when falling in isolation). This will be followed by a discussion of the phenomena of drop coalescence and breakup. Finally, we shall consider water drop-ice crystal and ice crystal-ice crystal in…
Taxonomic Study of Linaria depauperata and L. supina Complexes in Eastern Spain
2001
Abstract Morphological characteristics were studied in two groups of closely related taxa of section Supinae , Linaria depauperata and L. supina , from eastern Spain. Vegetative, floral and seed characteristics were of little use in distinguishing between these taxa as the ranges for all the taxa studied overlapped. Flower colour could be used as a diagnostic character for some but not all of these taxa. Seed coat characters were of high taxonomic value, both when trying to distinguish among these two groups, and the taxa included within them, and also when establishing relationships among the taxa studied. Some differences were found in the indumentum distribution and density. Three types …
Investigación en el aula: evaluación de la metodología de aprendizaje basado en problemas en la asignatura de Corrosión
2020
[ES] La metodología de Aprendizaje Basado en Problemas (ABP) se introdujo por primera vez en un curso de Corrosión del Master de Ingeniería Química de la Universitat Politècnica de València, durante el curso 2018-2019. Se diseñaron y presentaron diferentes problemas relacionados con todos estos conceptos como metodología de aprendizaje basado en problemas. Para evaluar el empleo de este tipo de metodología activa se plantea la elaboración de una encuesta a los estudiantes de manera anónima e individual y la realización de una matriz de escenarios presentes y futuros para la asignatura de forma grupal. Es importante señalar que a pesar de que para muchos de los estudiantes (67%) esta era la …
Panel Summary Perceptual Learning and Discovering
1994
The problem of learning and discovering in perception is addressed and discussed with particular reference to present machine learning paradigms. These paradigms are briefly introduced by S. Gaglio. The subsymbolic approach is addressed by S. Nolfi, and the role of symbolic learning is analysed by F. Esposito. Many of the open problems, that are evidentiated in the course of the panel, show how this is an important field of research that still needs a lot of investigation. In particular, as a result of the whole discussion, it seems that a suitable integration of different approaches must be accurately investigated. It is observed, in fact, that the weakness of the most part of the existing…
The Prefrontal Cortex and Neurological Impairments of Active Thought
2018
This article reviews the effects of lesions to the frontal cortex on the ability to carry out active thought, namely, to reason, think flexibly, produce strategies, and formulate and realize plans. We discuss how and why relevant neuropsychological studies should be carried out. The relationships between active thought and both intelligence and language are considered. The following basic processes necessary for effective active thought are reviewed: concentration, set switching, inhibiting potentiated responses, and monitoring and checking. Different forms of active thought are then addressed: abstraction, deduction, reasoning in well-structured and ill-structured problem spaces, novel st…
Varieties of algebras with pseudoinvolution: Codimensions, cocharacters and colengths
2022
Abstract Let A be a finitely generated superalgebra with pseudoinvolution ⁎ over an algebraically closed field F of characteristic zero. In this paper we develop a theory of polynomial identities for this kind of algebras . In particular, we shall consider three sequences that can be attached to Id ⁎ ( A ) , the T 2 ⁎ -ideal of identities of A: the sequence of ⁎-codimensions c n ⁎ ( A ) , the sequence of ⁎-cocharacter χ 〈 n 〉 ⁎ ( A ) and the ⁎-colength sequence l n ⁎ ( A ) . Our purpose is threefold. First we shall prove that the ⁎-codimension sequence is eventually non-decreasing, i.e., c n ⁎ ( A ) ≤ c n + 1 ⁎ ( A ) , for n large enough. Secondly, we study superalgebras with pseudoinvoluti…
La voz del estudiante en la evaluación del aprendizaje: un camino por recorrer en la universidad
2012
During 2009/2010, the current research was conducted with the aim of analysing student and teaching staff on regarding student participation in assessment. A content analysis of 76 subject outlines was carried out, and then 40 member of the teaching staff and 614 university students were surveyed. The results of the content analysis prove there is a shortage of information about and programming for student participation in assessment. Durante el curso 2009/2010 se llevó a cabo esta investigación con el objetivo de analizar la opinión y perspectiva que profesores y estudiantes universitarios tienen sobre la participación de estos últimos en el proceso de evaluación. Se realizó un análisis de…
¿Una orientación marcada por el género? El caso de la Formación Profesional Básica valenciana.
2020
In this article we present part of the results in the analysis of the Basic Vocational Education and Training from a gender perspective. A new training cycle included in the compulsory stage of the Spanish educational system in order to avoid early educational abandonment. To this end, adaptation and curricular diversification are combined since the academic curriculum is narrowed in favor of a greater professional content according to the branches offered. Gender clearly emerges as a fundamental variable to understand the small number of women enrolled, as well as their concentration in branches specially connoted in terms of gender. The interviews carried out with the coordination and ori…
Search for supersymmetry in events with large missing transverse momentum, jets, and at least one tau lepton in 7 TeV proton-proton collision data wi…
2012
A search for supersymmetry (SUSY) in events with large missing transverse momentum, jets, and at least one hadronically decaying τ lepton, with zero or one additional light lepton (e/μ), has been performed using 4.7 fb[superscript −1] of proton-proton collision data at √s = 7 TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. No excess above the Standard Model background expectation is observed and a 95 % confidence level visible cross-sectionupper limit for new phenomena is set. In the framework of gauge-mediated SUSY-breaking models, lower limits on the mass scale Λ are set at 54 TeV in the regions where the [bar over τ]1 is the next-to-lightest SUSY particle (tanβ > 20). …
