The aim of this work was to propose a methodology for quantifying the environmental compensation through the spatial analysis of vulnerability indicators. A case study was applied for the analysis of sand extraction enterprises, in the region of Descalvado and…

Last year, Stewart Brower, co-editor of the open access journal Communications in Information Literacy, defended the peer review process. He argued that despite its flaws, peer review helps librarians’ careers. “Peer-reviewed articles get librarians promoted. Peer-reviewed articles get librarians tenured.”…

An analytical approximate procedure for a class of conservative single degree-of-freedom nonlinear oscillators with odd non-linearity is proposed. This technique is based on the generalized harmonic balance method in which analytical approximate solutions have rational forms. Unlike the classical harmonic…

The analytical approximate technique developed by Wu et al for conservative oscillators with odd nonlinearity is used to construct approximate frequency-amplitude relations and periodic solutions to the dynamically shifted oscillator. This nonlinear oscillator is described by an equation of motion…

A second-order modified rational harmonic balance method is used for approximately solve the nonlinear differential equation that governs the oscillations of a system typified as a mass attached to a stretched elastic wire for which the restoring force for this…

With the current issue of Evidence Based Libraryand Information Practice (EBLIP), we will havepublished over 250 evidence summaries.That’s an average of 8 per issue, or 32 per year.When the journal was created, the goal ofpublishing these summaries was to provideconcise…
