La Gramática del Papel y la Referencia es una teoría funcional del lenguaje que permite la representación de un texto de entrada en términos de su estructura lógica. Con el fin de ir más allá de la gramática nuclear, el…

The analysis of noisy consensus dynamics in networks is of great interest to both
advance the fundamental understanding of multi-agent systems in nature as well as
create robust decentralized engineering systems. We develop a protocol that heuristically attempts to optimize…

Current global health interventions tend to focus on the “big 3” diseases:
malaria, AIDS, and tuberculosis. This focus has led to a dearth of funding for and
research into diseases that are also endemic in areas where the big 3…

This research explored the role of extra-therapeutic variables contributing to recovery
from chronic Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Within the context of dramatherapy
treatment, those variables were identified as three crucial concepts: 'Client, Post
Traumatic' (C.PT), ‘Imaginary Existence Zone’ (IEZ)…

Nutrigenomics covers disparate fields of nutrition science and has been defined in many different ways. In fact, this emerging field of science has multiple facets, many of which do not generate the same ethical issues. In particular, different ethical issues…

In this work, non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations are used to generate the flow of linear polymer chains (monomer-springs with FENE potential) and a Lennard-Jones fluid (Newtonian fluid) through a con traction-expansion (4:1:4) geometry. An external force field simulating a constant…
