The elaboration of typologies is a previous step to improve the analysis of occupation
of leisure-time and the establishment of collective measures that they affect in the
development of healthy lifestyle among the young people. The sample of this study

The aim of this study was to analyse the evolution of critical velocity and critical
stroke rate during 12 weeks of training in age group swimmers. Fourteen age group
male swimmers took part in this investigation. The evaluation took place…

Very few studies exist on biomechanics of rhythmic gymnastic. Four leaps of an experienced high
level (national competition) rhythmic gymnast athlete (16yo, 175 cm height, 50 kg weight) were analyzed
in order to provide firsts descriptive data of these movements,…

Water polo is a collective sport and efforts of high intensity are made in less duration, where
the players must swim, jump, and send the ball with moments of rest or low intensity. The
necessity of greater, stronger, and faster…

This paper stresses the importance of self-evaluation in the second language class today, and in particular, the advantages of having students keep a regular journal. Taking the methodological framework offered by the Communicative Approach to Language Teaching as a starting…

Rhythmites in pelagic sediments can include information on paleoclimate and with orbital cycles. This paper documents and interprets an unusual rhythmic succession from a cool-water shallow-marine shelf that includes features of Mediterranean-type ramps and open-ocean-type ramps. In the subsiding southwestern…

Study objectives: (1) To describe the union and life cycle of family rituals, such as specific habits of sharing daily meals, special events or other family activities, and (2) to analyse the relation between the practice of family rituals and…

We propose a two step method which enables us to obtain transmission Holographic Optical Elements of high diffraction efficiency as well as a good signal-to-noise relation. By means of a device using partially coherent light, a master Holographic Optical Element…

In this paper we present a novel approach to assigning roles to robots in a team of physical heterogeneous robots. Its members compete for these roles and get rewards for them. The rewards are used to determine each agent’s preferences…

We examine the evolution of the refractive index modulation when recording gratings in an acrylamide based photopolymer. A nonlocal diffusion model is used to predict theoretically the grating evolution. The model has been developed to account for both nonlocal spatial…
