    Los pavimentos de hormigón son estructuras propensas a la fisuración. El uso de fibras aparece como una de las mejores alternativas técnico-económicas para mejorar el comportamiento del hormigón. Una de las aplicaciones del Hormigón Reforzado con Fibras (HRF) es la reparación o refuerzo (“overlays”) de antiguos pavimentos. En la actualidad se dispone de macrofi bras sintéticas que pueden utilizarse en este tipo de aplicaciones en lugar de las tradicionales fi bras de acero. Este trabajo transmite la experiencia adquirida durante la ejecución de la rehabilitación de la Ruta 24 en Uruguay empleando un “whitetopping” delgado (adherido) de HRF. Se describen los resultados obtenidos durante el control de calidad en obra y se discuten los principales desafíos durante la ejecución como el uso de un aditivo reductor de agua de alto rango, el empleo de tecnología de alto rendimiento y el logro de una adecuada adherencia HRF – sustrato asfáltico.Fil: Miguez Pessada, D..

    SIX: The Musical by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss: A Pop Revision of the Lives of Henry VIII’s Six Wives as a Critique of the Representation of the Female Experience through Diachronic Parallels

    openFrom the early 1960s on, feminist historians set out to recover women's participation in and exclusion from processes of social transformations and political change. Moreover, these historians have focused on the marginalisation of women and their experiences in history, where most women’s achievements have been recorded as linked to those of men—if ever recorded. One consequence has been the loss of women’s perspective on several historical events, whether social, economic, political, or cultural. Historians are not the only ones trying to recover women’s contributions and experiences, as the growing number of films, books, and theatre performances on historical retellings of women’s stories demonstrate. The aim of this thesis is to argue how fictional work, specifically musical theatre, can enhance the revision of history in order to highlight the marginalisation and misrepresentation of women. Through an analysis of the musical SIX by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss, the dissertation will show how the authors have been able to criticise the mistreatment of the female experience by revising the lives of the six wives of Henry VIII. Presenting them as a female pop group, the authors draw diachronic parallels between the queens’ experiences as women at court in sixteenth-century England and the experience of women nowadays to show how the female experience in a male-centred and male-dominated society has not substantially changed.From the early 1960s on, feminist historians set out to recover women's participation in and exclusion from processes of social transformations and political change.

    Relative Energy Method For Weak-Strong Uniqueness Of The Inhomogeneous Navier-Stokes Equations

    We present a weak-strong uniqueness result for the inhomogeneous Navier-Stokes (INS) equations in Rd\mathbb{R}^d (d=2,3d=2,3) for bounded initial densities that are far from vacuum. Given a strong solution within the class employed in Paicu, Zhang and Zhang (2013) and Chen, Zhang and Zhao (2016), and a Leray-Hopf weak solution, we establish that they coincide if the initial data agree. The strategy of our proof is based on the relative energy method and new W1,pW^{-1,p}-type stability estimates for the density. A key point lies in proving that every Leray-Hopf weak solution originating from initial densities far from vacuum remains distant from vacuum at all times
