    El presente trabajo de titulación presentara el diseño y simulación estructural frontal del bus alfa 700 en la empresa Metálicas Pillapa para transporte interprovincial en el campo no-lineal mediante ANSYS. Se manipulara una metodología cuantitativa que se basa en la realización de encuestas y entrevista, en las cuales se aclarara las dudas referentes al problema principal. Se obtendrá una simulación y análisis mediante software, para determinar el comportamiento de la estructura frontal de una carrocería sometida a una condición de impacto frontal según la normativa internacional, así como también a los elementos más críticos de la carrocería. Para el proceso de simulación se utilizó el software ANSYS con su módulo LS-DYNA, con el que se aplica la dinámica explicita que ofrece el programa, en virtud de las características dinámicas del fenómeno de impacto, donde se producen elevadas deformaciones en periodos de tiempo muy pequeños, primero se construye el modelo de la carrocería en 3D utilizando SpaceClaim, luego aplicando las condiciones de frontera; velocidad, cargas, restricciones de movimiento y por ultimo tenemos la obtención de los resultados para su respectiva interpretación. El proceso de validación de los resultados obtenidos en los estudios, están en relación al parámetro del reloj de arena Hourglass y al método de comprobación para estructuras seleccionado “Flanagan-Belytschko Stiffness”, que permitió validar el estudio. Con esto se puede llegar a señalar que la estructura de la zona frontal de la puerta de ingreso de pasajeros es el lugar con mayor falla, también se debe tomar en cuenta la estructura que se encuentra después de la llanta porque existe un desplazamiento grande. Debería existir algún tipo de normativa con la que se pueda salvaguardar la vida de los ocupantes de las carrocerías que circulan en el país, y que tienen la posibilidad de sufrir un accidente frontal.The present Word of qualification shall submit the design and front structural simulation of the Alpha bus 700 in the Company Metal Pillapa for interprovincial transport non-linear field using ANSYS. A quantitative methodology will be handed which is based on the conduct of surveys and interview, in the which clarify the doubts concerning to the main problem, It will get a simulation and analysis through software, to determine the behavior of the front structure of a subject to a condition of frontal impact according to international standars. As well as the most critical elements of the coachwork. For the simulation process was used the ANSYS software with its module LS-DYNA, with what applies the dynamic explicit that offers the program, by virtue of the dynamics characteristics of the phenomenon of impact, where high deformation are produced in very small periods of time, first, it is built the model of the coachwork in three dimensional drawing (3D) using SpaceClaim, then applying the boundary condition; speed, loads, restriction of movement, and finally, we obtain the results for its respective interpretation. The process of validation of the results obtained in studies are in relation of the parameter of the Hourglass and the method of checking for structures selected “Flanagan-Belytschko Stiffness” that allowed to validate the study. With this you can get to point out that the structure of the area in front of the entrance gate of passengers is the place with the greatest fails. Also, must take into account the structure that is located after the tire because there is a large displacement. There should be some kind of regulation with which you can safeguard the lives of the occupants of the bodywork of the vehicle that circulate in the country and that they have the possibility of suffering a frontal accident

    ARIA 2016 : Care pathways implementing emerging technologies for predictive medicine in rhinitis and asthma across the life cycle

    Get PDF
    The Allergic Rhinitis and its Impact on Asthma (ARIA) initiative commenced during a World Health Organization workshop in 1999. The initial goals were (1) to propose a new allergic rhinitis classification, (2) to promote the concept of multi-morbidity in asthma and rhinitis and (3) to develop guidelines with all stakeholders that could be used globally for all countries and populations. ARIA-disseminated and implemented in over 70 countries globally-is now focusing on the implementation of emerging technologies for individualized and predictive medicine. MASK [MACVIA (Contre les Maladies Chroniques pour un Vieillissement Actif)-ARIA Sentinel NetworK] uses mobile technology to develop care pathways for the management of rhinitis and asthma by a multi-disciplinary group and by patients themselves. An app (Android and iOS) is available in 20 countries and 15 languages. It uses a visual analogue scale to assess symptom control and work productivity as well as a clinical decision support system. It is associated with an inter-operable tablet for physicians and other health care professionals. The scaling up strategy uses the recommendations of the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing. The aim of the novel ARIA approach is to provide an active and healthy life to rhinitis sufferers, whatever their age, sex or socio-economic status, in order to reduce health and social inequalities incurred by the disease.Peer reviewe

    Differential cross section measurements for the production of a W boson in association with jets in proton–proton collisions at √s = 7 TeV

    Get PDF
    Measurements are reported of differential cross sections for the production of a W boson, which decays into a muon and a neutrino, in association with jets, as a function of several variables, including the transverse momenta (pT) and pseudorapidities of the four leading jets, the scalar sum of jet transverse momenta (HT), and the difference in azimuthal angle between the directions of each jet and the muon. The data sample of pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV was collected with the CMS detector at the LHC and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 fb[superscript −1]. The measured cross sections are compared to predictions from Monte Carlo generators, MadGraph + pythia and sherpa, and to next-to-leading-order calculations from BlackHat + sherpa. The differential cross sections are found to be in agreement with the predictions, apart from the pT distributions of the leading jets at high pT values, the distributions of the HT at high-HT and low jet multiplicity, and the distribution of the difference in azimuthal angle between the leading jet and the muon at low values.United States.

    Juxtaposing BTE and ATE – on the role of the European insurance industry in funding civil litigation

    Get PDF
    One of the ways in which legal services are financed, and indeed shaped, is through private insurance arrangement. Two contrasting types of legal expenses insurance contracts (LEI) seem to dominate in Europe: before the event (BTE) and after the event (ATE) legal expenses insurance. Notwithstanding institutional differences between different legal systems, BTE and ATE insurance arrangements may be instrumental if government policy is geared towards strengthening a market-oriented system of financing access to justice for individuals and business. At the same time, emphasizing the role of a private industry as a keeper of the gates to justice raises issues of accountability and transparency, not readily reconcilable with demands of competition. Moreover, multiple actors (clients, lawyers, courts, insurers) are involved, causing behavioural dynamics which are not easily predicted or influenced. Against this background, this paper looks into BTE and ATE arrangements by analysing the particularities of BTE and ATE arrangements currently available in some European jurisdictions and by painting a picture of their respective markets and legal contexts. This allows for some reflection on the performance of BTE and ATE providers as both financiers and keepers. Two issues emerge from the analysis that are worthy of some further reflection. Firstly, there is the problematic long-term sustainability of some ATE products. Secondly, the challenges faced by policymakers that would like to nudge consumers into voluntarily taking out BTE LEI

    Search for stop and higgsino production using diphoton Higgs boson decays

    Get PDF
    Results are presented of a search for a "natural" supersymmetry scenario with gauge mediated symmetry breaking. It is assumed that only the supersymmetric partners of the top-quark (stop) and the Higgs boson (higgsino) are accessible. Events are examined in which there are two photons forming a Higgs boson candidate, and at least two b-quark jets. In 19.7 inverse femtobarns of proton-proton collision data at sqrt(s) = 8 TeV, recorded in the CMS experiment, no evidence of a signal is found and lower limits at the 95% confidence level are set, excluding the stop mass below 360 to 410 GeV, depending on the higgsino mass

    Impacts of the Tropical Pacific/Indian Oceans on the Seasonal Cycle of the West African Monsoon

    The current consensus is that drought has developed in the Sahel during the second half of the twentieth century as a result of remote effects of oceanic anomalies amplified by local land–atmosphere interactions. This paper focuses on the impacts of oceanic anomalies upon West African climate and specifically aims to identify those from SST anomalies in the Pacific/Indian Oceans during spring and summer seasons, when they were significant. Idealized sensitivity experiments are performed with four atmospheric general circulation models (AGCMs). The prescribed SST patterns used in the AGCMs are based on the leading mode of covariability between SST anomalies over the Pacific/Indian Oceans and summer rainfall over West Africa. The results show that such oceanic anomalies in the Pacific/Indian Ocean lead to a northward shift of an anomalous dry belt from the Gulf of Guinea to the Sahel as the season advances. In the Sahel, the magnitude of rainfall anomalies is comparable to that obtained by other authors using SST anomalies confined to the proximity of the Atlantic Ocean. The mechanism connecting the Pacific/Indian SST anomalies with West African rainfall has a strong seasonal cycle. In spring (May and June), anomalous subsidence develops over both the Maritime Continent and the equatorial Atlantic in response to the enhanced equatorial heating. Precipitation increases over continental West Africa in association with stronger zonal convergence of moisture. In addition, precipitation decreases over the Gulf of Guinea. During the monsoon peak (July and August), the SST anomalies move westward over the equatorial Pacific and the two regions where subsidence occurred earlier in the seasons merge over West Africa. The monsoon weakens and rainfall decreases over the Sahel, especially in August.Peer reviewe
