Sistemas de generación de energía eléctrica basados en biogás
La biomasa residual es un recurso renovable con la capacidad de proporcionar soluciones energéticas a nivel local y regional. De hecho, este recurso es una muy buena alternativa para proporcionar energía eléctrica en zonas rurales o no interconectadas, en las que los sectores pecuario y agrícola son los más representativos. Este libro presenta una revisión enfocada en el estudio del proceso bioquímico de la digestión anaerobia (DA), su modelado matemático y su respectiva implementación computacional, incluyendo el desarrollo de una herramienta software que facilita su cálculo y aplicación. De esta forma, el lector contará con una herramienta de apoyo que le permita evaluar el potencial eléctrico de una región o un lugar específico, establecer las tecnologías de conversión biogás-electricidad más apropiadas y determinar la eficiencia de conversión de un sistema de generación de energía eléctrica basado en biodigestores (SGEB).
Prácticas de laboratorios de picosatélites
El libro Prácticas de Laboratorios de Picosatélites es otro de los resultados del trabajo experimental del grupo de investigación Gitem++ para el desarrollo autónomo de un picosatélite. Esta publicación contiene detalles sobre los insumos, requerimientos y montajes para la realización de las prácticas en el camino de formación de expertos para el desarrollo de pequeños satélites; sintetiza los experimentos llevados a cabo para el diseño preliminar y el diseño crítico de los módulos que conforman un picosatélite. Estas prácticas corresponden a los laboratorios, y se entienden como el soporte experimental de las especificaciones para la composición de los módulos de potencia y comunicaciones; también se abordan los detalles de la sala de mando y la estación terrena, así como una completa descripción para la construcción del módulo de datos y el control del satélite y la sala limpia. Varias de las temáticas incluidas aquí se complementan en el libro de Laboratorio de Picosatélites de la Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas, publicado por esta editorial.
Prolog: The Next 50 Years
This volume was motivated by the Year of Prolog initiative, launched to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the emergence of Prolog through the work of Alain Colmerauer’s team in Marseille. The volume editors, authors, and scientific advisors and reviewers have been the leading researchers and programmers in this field over decades, and the book represents an excellent overview of the field, its successes, and its future. After a first chapter that gently introduces the Prolog programming language using examples, the next 7 papers discuss general views of the language, possible extensions for the future, and how Prolog can generally be used to solve problems; the next 5 papers explore ideas and experiences of teaching Prolog programming and then 2 papers discuss technology that has been developed for help in that teaching; the next 3 papers describe new languages based on Prolog which show future directions for logic programming; the next 5 chapters explain the applications that were the finalists for the 2022 Alain Colmerauer Prize; and the final 8 papers describe applications developed using the Prolog language, demonstrating the language’s range.
Alter-Globalization
Contrary to the common view that globalization undermines social agency, ‘alter-globalization activists', that is, those who contest globalization in its neo-liberal form, have developed new ways to become actors in the global age. They propose alternatives to Washington Consensus policies, implement horizontal and participatory organization models and promote a nascent global public space. Rather than being anti-globalization, these activists have built a truly global movement that has gathered citizens, committed intellectuals, indigenous, farmers, dalits and NGOs against neoliberal policies in street demonstrations and Social Forums all over the world, from Bangalore to Seattle and from Porto Alegre to Nairobi. This book analyses this worldwide movement on the bases of extensive field research conducted since 1999. Alter-Globalization provides a comprehensive account of these critical global forces and their attempts to answer one of the major challenges of our time: How can citizens and civil society contribute to the building of a fairer, sustainable and more democratic co-existence of human beings in a global world?
Chess International Titleholders, 1950-2016
The International Chess Federation or FIDE (from the French Federation Internationale des Echecs) was founded in Paris in 1924 but only from 1950 began to award international titles. This book lists more than 18,000 players who received titles from 1950 through 2016. Entries include (where available) the player's full name, federation, date of birth, place of birth, date of death, place of death, title and year of award and peak rating (month and year), with references provided.
Hyperborder
Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
Economy, Gender and Academy
Relying on a variety of examples from Latin America and the Caribbean, this book counteracts the gender gap by focusing on what you need to know to analyze the modernization of business management and economic growth as well as design effective public policies that allow for greater participation of women in society.
VIII Latin American Conference on Biomedical Engineering and XLII National Conference on Biomedical Engineering
This book gathers the joint proceedings of the VIII Latin American Conference on Biomedical Engineering (CLAIB 2019) and the XLII National Conference on Biomedical Engineering (CNIB 2019). It reports on the latest findings and technological outcomes in the biomedical engineering field. Topics include: biomedical signal and image processing; biosensors, bioinstrumentation and micro-nanotechnologies; biomaterials and tissue engineering. Advances in biomechanics, biorobotics, neurorehabilitation, medical physics and clinical engineering are also discussed. A special emphasis is given to practice-oriented research and to the implementation of new technologies in clinical settings. The book provides academics and professionals with extensive knowledge on and a timely snapshot of cutting-edge research and developments in the field of biomedical engineering.
Discursive Approaches to Sociopolitical Polarization and Conflict
This collection explores the discursive strategies and linguistic resources underpinning conflict and polarization, taking a multidisciplinary approach to examine the ways in which conflict is constructed across a diverse range of contexts. The volume is divided into two sections as a means of identifying two different dimensions to conflict construction and bridging the gap between different perspectives through a constructivist framework. The first part comprises chapters looking at sociopolitical conflicts across specific geographic contexts across the US, Europe and Latin America. The second half of the book unpacks sociocultural conflicts, those not defined by physical borders but shape...
