Modelling the squeeze flow in a deformed rectangular microchannel
Universidad de Málaga. Campus de Excelencia Internacional Andalucía Tech.Rheinforce cork composites, previously named elsewhere as CorkSTFluidics [1], are sandwiches consis?ng of two microagglomerated cork pads embedding microfluidic
paCerns that are filled with a shear thickening fluid (see Figure 1 (a)), whose mechanical performance under impact loads is determined by the microfluidic paCern and the
rheological proper?es of the fluid [2]. From the experimental results it is impossible to decouple the fluid contribu?on from the solid contribu?on to the force?me response
of the composite. In this work, we have developed a simple model of the fluid-flow dynamics that it is able to predict the fluid contribu?on in the energy dissipa?on of the
Rheinforce cork composites under impact loads. To that end, we model the viscous flow inside a microchannel for a known displacement of the upper lid h(t, x), calcula?ng
as a result the needed force to create that movement
Automating the Horae: boundary-work in the age of computers
This paper describes the intense software filtering that has allowed the arXiv e-print repository to sort and process large numbers of submissions with minimal human intervention, making it one of the most important and influential cases of open access repositories to date. The paper narrates arXiv’s transformation, using sophisticated sorting/filtering algorithms to decrease human workload, from a small mailing list used by a few hundred researchers to a site that processes thousands of papers per month. However there are significant negative consequences for authors who have been filtered out of arXiv’s main categories. There is thus a continued need to check and balance arXiv’s boundaries, based in the essential tension between stability and innovation
Molecular detector (non)technology in Mexico
This paper discusses the introduction of fraudulent “molecular detector” (non)technology into Mexico. The case is used to argue that contemporary science and technology studies’ approaches to scientific policy-making make basic assumptions about the societies they operate in that are inconsistent with the Mexican context. This paper also argues that contrary to what happens in the so-called Global North, the relative power of Mexican science in government and policy circles is as much limited by its relatively weak position as much as it is by self-censorship and unrealized impact in the country’s fragile democracy. The case is also used to highlight the necessity for more politically involved scientific institutions in Mexico, as these become critical safeguards against incoming destabilizing technologies from more powerful nations into the local “peripheral” context

Retórica, poética y poesía en Antonio Llull: La elegía por Philibert de Rye
El 13 de julio de 1556 moría Philibert de Rye, obispo de Ginebra. Un grupo de eruditos relacionados con la Univer sidad de Dola, le tributó un homenaje literario, entre cuyos textos destacamos una elegía dialogada, desarrolla da en dísticos elegiacos, obra del humanista Antonio Llull, texto que no recoge ninguno de los repertorios de la producción de este tratadista mallorquín. En este artí culo, estudiaremos este poema por primera vez, tanto en lo referente a sus fuentes y sus antecedentes literarios, como a la luz de los tratados de Llull Progymnasmata Re torica (1550/1551/1572) y De oratione libri septem (1558
El consumo de energía y la economía mexicana. un análisis empírico con VAR
The main objective of this study is to analyze the relationships between consumption of energy, output, relative prices of energy and employment in Mexico over the period 1965-2001. The main results indicate that there is at least one cointegrating vector implying one longterm stable relationship between energy consumption, output, relative prices and employment. This cointegrating vector, which was obtained by the Johansen (1988) procedure and corrected for possible structural changes using the method proposed by Hansen and Johansen (1993), has coefficients that can be interpreted according to the economic theory as a demand function and that suggest energy and employment are substitute goods. The weak exogeneity tests show the existence of a close relationship between consumption of energy and output, meanwhile the relative prices and employment are weak exogenous. The Granger non-causality tests indicate a bi-directional relationship between the changes of output and energy consumption and the presence of a complex feedback process between all the variables included in the analysis that must be considered in order to design an energy control public policy. In this sense, the simultaneous movements among energy, income and employment suggest that any energy control policy might also influence the trajectory of output and employment.energy, output, employment, causality
Autocontrol: factor clave de éxito organizacional subutilizado
Para mantener el control en una organización no es necesario implementar modelos que exijan cumplir las normas, procedimientos, políticas de manera externa, se requiere la educación de las personas en autocontrol, ya que en ellas es donde nace la acción. A través de un recorrido por las teorías organizacionales, un modelo de control y la experiencia del autor, se deja abierta la posibilidad de crear una cultura organizacional mejor y más productivaTo maintain control in an organization is not required to implement models that meet required standards, procedures, policies externally, requires educating people in self-control, because in them is where the action arises. Through a tour of organizational theories, a model of control and experience of the author, leaving open the possibility of creating an organizational culture better and more productiv
Postpartum Relapse in Patients with Bipolar Disorder
Pregnancy and postpartum are vital times of greater vulnerability to suffer a decompensation
of bipolar disorder (BD). Methods: A systematic literature search was performed on public
electronic medical databases, following PRISMA guidelines. Studies were included if they reported
postpartum relapse in patients diagnosed with BD according to Diagnosis Statistical Manual (DSM) or
International Classification Disease (ICD) criteria. Results: Sixteen articles describing 6064 deliveries
of 3977 women were included in the quantitative analyses. The overall risk of postpartum relapse
was 36.77%. The methodology of the studies, the diagnostic criteria, the discrimination between
BD type I and II, and the origin of the sample were very heterogeneous. Conclusions: the rate of
postpartum bipolar relapse is very high, as it is considered to be a critical period. It is especially
important to detect decompensation in this period and to evaluate mood-stabilizing treatment, given
the high risk of relapse concentrated in a short period.Spanish Ministry of Health through the Carlos III Health Institute (Health Research Projects of the Strategic Action in Health) PI21/0125
