The study of liquid metallic alloys using first principles Molecular Dynamic (MD) requires the knowledge of the liquid phase density that is not easy to obtain experimentally. In this work we calculate the densities for the liquid phase of eutectic…

P>1. A key aspect of the ecology and evolution of adaptive prey responses to predator risk is the timing by which the former develop a defensive trait in response to inducing signals released by the latter. This property, called reactivity,…

Purpose – This research deals with a new kind of nanopigment, obtained from the combination of organic dyes and layered nanoclays, that the authors call nanoclay-colorant pigment (NCP). Whilst they have already been employed in inks and coatings, to date…

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…

We updated the floristic checklist of the Nizanda region, Isthmus of Tehuantepec (southern Mexico), characterized the occurring plant communities based on dominant species, and described the region's flora according to life form, growth form, growth type, and growth habit spectra.…

The aim of this article is to investigate and bring
to light the constructive impact of Knowledge
Creation and Technology Education on the
process of New Product Development. This is
done under the competence-based perspective
of the organization, where knowledge…

Knobler (1971) notes that within society at least three
communities are affected by intellectual property rights and
these include; the stakeholders who produce and distribute
the new knowledge such as Microsoft or Disney, individual
generators of new knowledge such as…

This paper presents a proposal for an architecture that integrates knowledge discovery systems (automatic acquisition) and knowledge based systems (experts systems). This work formulates considerations over the viability of the implementation of this architecture according to the advance of the…

The paper analyzes how the traditional variables that define a firm’s organizational structure (formalization, complexity, and centralization) influence knowledge performance (the degree to which a firm generates knowledge and uses it to reach a competitive advantage). Three hypotheses are tested…

E-cognocracy [Moreno-Jiménez, 2003, 2006; Moreno-Jiménez and Polasek, 2003, 2005] is a new democratic system conceived for the purpose of extracting and diffusing the knowledge derived from the scientific resolution of complex problems that arise in the field of public decision…
