Aplicaciones del coaching al deporte: adaptación al pádel

En el presente trabajo pretendemos aportar una visión profunda en la aplicación del coaching al deporte y cómo puede ser usado por directivos, entrenadores o jugadores de una organización deportiva o club, en el pádel de manera concreta. Conoceremos las distintas fases que se deben dar para una correcta intervención, además de los acuerdos entre el coach y el deportista. En el contexto actual, las empresas y entidades deportivas se ven obligadas a adaptarse a la nueva realidad económica. Se considera fundamental sacar el máximo provecho a los recursos de los que disponemos. Las empresas, organizaciones o clubes deportivos, deben de buscar un valor añadido, marcar la diferencia con el menor coste posible. Alfonso Alonso (2011) define el coaching como un conjunto de entrevistas individuales entre un profesional (coach) y su cliente para ayudar a dicha persona a conseguir sus metas y objetivos, los cuales pueden ser personales o profesionales. El Coaching deportivo es un proceso de entrenamiento-aprendizaje, que consiste en despertar el talento y los recursos del deportista, entrenador y directivo para incrementar al máximo su rendimiento deportivo y personal, y eliminar los obstáculos internos a través del establecimiento de un plan de acción (cambio) con metas u objetivos (Useche, 2004; García-Naveira, 2011; Whitmore, 2011). El coach deportivo debe guiar al coachee por el siguiente recorrido: Tomar conciencia-Querer-Saber hacer-Hacer.Universidad de Málaga. Campus de Excelencia Internacional Andalucía Tech

Porous Titanium for Biomedical Applications: Evaluation of the Conventional Powder Metallurgy Frontier and Space-Holder Technique

Titanium and its alloys are reference materials in biomedical applications because of their desirable properties. However, one of the most important concerns in long-term prostheses is bone resorption as a result of the stress-shielding phenomena. Development of porous titanium for implants with a low Young’s modulus has accomplished increasing scientific and technological attention. The aim of this study is to evaluate the viability, industrial implementation and potential technology transfer of different powder-metallurgy techniques to obtain porous titanium with stiffness values similar to that exhibited by cortical bone. Porous samples of commercial pure titanium grade-4 were obtained by following both conventional powder metallurgy (PM) and space-holder technique. The conventional PM frontier (Loose-Sintering) was evaluated. Additionally, the technical feasibility of two different space holders (NH4HCO3 and NaCl) was investigated. The microstructural and mechanical properties were assessed. Furthermore, the mechanical properties of titanium porous structures with porosities of 40% were studied by Finite Element Method (FEM) and compared with the experimental results. Some important findings are: (i) the optimal parameters for processing routes used to obtain low Young’s modulus values, retaining suitable mechanical strength; (ii) better mechanical response was obtained by using NH4HCO3 as space holder; and (iii) Ti matrix hardening when the interconnected porosity was 36–45% of total porosity. Finally, the advantages and limitations of the PM techniques employed, towards an industrial implementation, were discussed.Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness of Spain Grant MAT2015-71284-PJunta de Andalucía Grant P12-TEP-1401Comisión Nacional de Investigación, Científica y Tecnológica (CONICYT) of the Chilean government project FONDECYT 1116086

Foeniculum sanguineum Triano y A. Pujadas (Apiaceae) nueva especie del suroeste de la Región Mediterránea

Foeniculum sanguineum Triano & A. Pujadas, sp. nov., from the south western Mediterranean Region (Spain & Morocco) is described. Its characterization and a comparative study with the related species Foeniculum vulgare Mill., has been carried out through morphological, cytological, chemical and molecular analysis. F. sanguineum is distinguished primarily for its red petals, pink pollen in fresh, and red stylopod. It is a diploid species (2n= 22). A high proportion of limonene and piperitenone oxide (absent in F. vulgare) has been found in the essential oil composition of the dry fruits of F. sanguineum and a high amount (about 50 %) of α-phellandrene in its roots and stems. Phylogenetic analyses were performed using the internal transcribed spacer sequences of nuclear ribosomal DNA (ITS) and the chloroplast rbcL gene sequences. ITS analysis supports the existence of the new species, while revealing sequence divergence both at the intraspecific and at the interspecific levels. A Single-nucleotide-polymorphism (SNP) sequence divergence found in the slow evolving chloroplast gene provided additional support for the novel species characterization, for which the name Foeniculum sanguineum is proposed

Programa de salud bucodental en 1º de primaria

El presente programa pretende disminuir la prevalencia de la caries en los niños de 1er. curso de Primaria. Los últimos datos obtenidos son alarmantes, aproximadamente uno de cada tres alumnos de entre 5 y 6 años ha tenido o tiene caries en dientes temporales. Datos que señalan la importancia de comenzar las medidas preventivas desde una edad temprana en el ámbito escolar, lugar en el que la eficacia de la educación se incrementa considerablemente. Para conseguirlo, la educación sanitaria se convierte en la herramienta fundamental de prevención y promoción de la salud bucodental. Una labor de todos, por ello participarán alumnos, profesores y padres. El programa consta de tres talleres y una jornada familiar. Cada uno de ellos cumplirá un objetivo (conocer los aspectos básicos de los dientes, aprender el cepillado dental correcto, diferenciar los alimentos cariogénicos de los no cariogénicos e informar a los padres). En un breve tiempo y a un coste mínimo los resultados que se obtienen son buenos, debido al método educativo y a la integración familiar que contempla el programa

El impacto del turismo de masas en las Islas Canarias en el contexto de las reservas mundiales de la biosfera

Canarias es uno de los destinos turísticos principales de Europa. El Archipiélago recibió en 2015 más de 13 millones de turistas y todo ello en un territorio muy limitado (7.4 mil km2 y una población de 2.1 millones). Las dimensiones de estas cifras adquieren relevancia en un contexto donde el 63 % de la superficie de las Islas ha sido declarada Reserva Mundial de la Biosfera. Se estudia aquí pues, el impacto del turismo –así como algunas alternativas en aras de paliar dicho impacto–, en las cinco islas que han sido declaradas en su integridad como tales, partiendo de sus particularidades

A visual analytics architecture for the analysis and understanding of software systems

Visual analytics facilitates the creation of knowledge to interpret trends and relationships for better decision making. However, it has not being used widely for the understanding of software systems and the change process that takes place during their development and maintenance. This occurs despite the need of project managers and developers to analyze their systems to calculate the complexity, cohesion, direct, indirect and logical coupling, detect clones, defects and bad smells, and the comparison of individual revisions. This research considers the design of an extensible and scalable architecture to incorporate new and existing methods to retrieve source code from different versioning systems, to carry out the analysis of programs in different languages, to perform the calculation of software metrics and to present the results using visual representations, incorporated as Eclipse and Visual Studio extensions. Consequently, the aim of this work is to design a visual analytics architecture for the analysis and understanding of systems in different languages and its main contributions are the specification of the design and requirements of such architecture, taking as base the lessons learned in Maleku (A. González-Torres et al., 2016)

Generalizability Theory Applied to Olympic Male Taekwondo Combats

Generalizability theory (GT) postulates that there are infinite sources of error variation in any measurement. Generalizability analysis is used to reduce and control this measurement error. To date, there has been no study employing GT in analysing taekwondo, despite the increase of observational studies in combat sports. Through applying GT to six random combat bouts within the Olympic Games in London 2012, the aims of this study are: (a) to determine whether the bouts selected are representative enough for their behaviour to be generalizable; (b) to determine the intra and interobserver agreement and reliability; and (c) to assess the accuracy of the exhaustive and mutual exclusion of each category included in each criterion of the categorical system. Method: Six taekwondo bouts were randomly selected in order to analyse the athletes' technical/tactical behaviour. Three observers were responsible for viewing and analysing the videos using a consensual concordance strategy. Results and discussion: High values for intra and interobserver agreement were found in Kendall's tau and Cohen's kappa indexes, in addition to the GT. The results showed that the categorical system was composed of exhaustive and mutually exclusive (E/ME) categories and that the sample was representative enough to generalize the behaviour shown
