Cristo, misterio de la alianza, en la teología de Jean Daniélou

La presente investigación se centra en los escritos de Jean Daniélou sobre Jesucristo. En ella se analizan categorías centrales que Daniélou tomó de los Padres, como economía de la salvación (Justino), recapitulación de todas las cosas en Cristo (Ireneo de Lyon) y concatenación (akoulouthía) de todo hacia y desde Jesucristo (Gregorio de Nisa). La perspectiva bíblica de Daniélou, siendo patrística, es esencialmente tipológica. Los estudios de exégesis tipológica conducen a una idea central en la Sagrada Escritura, la noción de alianza, que es la que domina nuestra investigación. La reflexión de Daniélou sobre Jesucristo presenta una cristología de la alianza, y el misterio de la unión hipostática como el momento en el que se consuman todas las alianzas de Dios. En esta línea, llaman la atención algunas peculiaridades en la presentación que el teólogo francés hace de la Pascua de Cristo: la salvación vista desde su universalidad; la contemplación del misterio pascual, y muy especialmente de la pasión y de la muerte de Jesús, desde la perspectiva de su ministerio profético; las consideraciones en torno a la cólera de Dios como manifestación de la vida intensa que hay en Dios y que justamente en el Calvario se abraza con el amor; la solución para el drama de la existencia humana vista como liberación; la donación del Espíritu Santo al Cristo resucitado en cuanto Cabeza de la Iglesia; el tiempo de la Iglesia como continuación de la historia de la salvación guiada por el Kyrios resucitado y sentado a la derecha del Padre

IEEE Access Special Section Editorial: Energy Management in Buildings

Energy usage in buildings has become a critical concern globally, and with that, the concept of energy management in buildings has emerged to help tackle these challenges. The energy management system provides a new opportunity for the building's energy requirements, and is an essential method for energy service, i.e., energy saving, consumption,

Cerebrovascular Variants and the Role of the Selfish Brain in Young-Onset Hypertension

Background: Variants in the posterior anatomy of the cerebral circulation are associated with hypertension and lower cerebral blood flow in midlife (age ≈55 years); however, whether these variants are a result of aging or long-term exposure to high blood pressure is unclear. Additionally, the role these variants play in early onset of hypertension (<40 years) and poor cerebral perfusion in this population is unknown. Methods: We retrospectively examined whether specific cerebrovascular variants (vertebral artery hypoplasia and absent/hypoplastic posterior communicating arteries (an incomplete posterior circle of Willis) measured via magnetic resonance angiography) were associated with a diagnosis of hypertension in 220 young adults (<40 years; n=164 primary hypertensive [mean age±SD, 32±6 years] and n=56 [30±6 years] normotensive adults). Whether cerebrovascular variants were associated with lower cerebral blood flow (phase-contrast angiography) was measured in the hypertensive group only (n=146). Results: Binary logistic regression (adjusted for age, sex, and body mass index) showed that vertebral artery hypoplasia with an incomplete posterior circle of Willis was associated with hypertension diagnosis (P<0.001, odds ratio; 11.79 [95% CI, 3.34–41.58]). Vertebral artery hypoplasia plus an incomplete circle of Willis was associated with lower cerebral blood flow in young adults with hypertension (P=0.0172). Conclusions: Vertebral artery hypoplasia plus an incomplete posterior circle of Willis independently predicts hypertension in young adults suggesting that this variant is not acquired with aging into midlife. Importantly this variant combination was associated with lower cerebral perfusion, which may have long-term consequences on cerebrovascular health in young adults with hypertension

Hubble expansion and structure formation in the "running FLRW model" of the cosmic evolution

A new class of FLRW cosmological models with time-evolving fundamental parameters should emerge naturally from a description of the expansion of the universe based on the first principles of quantum field theory and string theory. Within this general paradigm, one expects that both the gravitational Newton's coupling, G, and the cosmological term, Lambda, should not be strictly constant but appear rather as smooth functions of the Hubble rate. This scenario ("running FLRW model") predicts, in a natural way, the existence of dynamical dark energy without invoking the participation of extraneous scalar fields. In this paper, we perform a detailed study of these models in the light of the latest cosmological data, which serves to illustrate the phenomenological viability of the new dark energy paradigm as a serious alternative to the traditional scalar field approaches. By performing a joint likelihood analysis of the recent SNIa data, the CMB shift parameter, and the BAOs traced by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, we put tight constraints on the main cosmological parameters. Furthermore, we derive the theoretically predicted dark-matter halo mass function and the corresponding redshift distribution of cluster-size halos for the "running" models studied. Despite the fact that these models closely reproduce the standard LCDM Hubble expansion, their normalization of the perturbation's power-spectrum varies, imposing, in many cases, a significantly different cluster-size halo redshift distribution. This fact indicates that it should be relatively easy to distinguish between the "running" models and the LCDM cosmology using realistic future X-ray and Sunyaev-Zeldovich cluster surveys.Comment: Version published in JCAP 08 (2011) 007: 1+41 pages, 6 Figures, 1 Table.

Unlocking the potential of big data to support tactical performance analysis in professional soccer: A systematic review

In professional soccer, increasing amounts of data are collected that harness great potential when it comes to analysing tactical behaviour. Unlocking this potential is difficult as big data challenges the data management and analytics methods commonly employed in sports. By joining forces with computer science, solutions to these challenges could be achieved, helping sports science to find new insights, as is happening in other scientific domains. We aim to bring multiple domains together in the context of analysing tactical behaviour in soccer using position tracking data. A systematic literature search for studies employing position tracking data to study tactical behaviour in soccer was conducted in seven electronic databases, resulting in 2338 identified studies and finally the inclusion of 73 papers. Each domain clearly contributes to the analysis of tactical behaviour, albeit in - sometimes radically - different ways. Accordingly, we present a multidisciplinary framework where each domain's contributions to feature construction, modelling and interpretation can be situated. We discuss a set of key challenges concerning the data analytics process, specifically feature construction, spatial and temporal aggregation. Moreover, we discuss how these challenges could be resolved through multidisciplinary collaboration, which is pivotal in unlocking the potential of position tracking data in sports analytics.Algorithms and the Foundations of Software technolog
