On some measures of non-compactness associated to Banach operator ideals
No full textWe study two variants of measures of non-compactness of operators associated to a Banach operator ideal in the sense of Pietsch. These measures are motivated by the notions of surjective-ideal-compactness and injective-ideal-compactness, defined respectively by Carl and Stephani and by Stephani. Interpolation results on these measures in the cases of Banach couples generated by a single Banach space are given. As an application, we obtain interpolation theorems on p-compact operators and quasi p-nuclear operators.The first named author was supported by the Ministerio de Economía, Industria y Competitividad and FEDER under project MTM2017-84058-P.

Teleworking in Manufacturing: Dealing with the Post-Pandemic COVID-19 Challenge
No full textThe quantity of teleworkers had already been rising in various work fields even prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, it was not until the pandemic that it spread to other sectors such as the industrial sector. There are still few studies looking at telework’s impact on this important sector. This article is intended to discuss: (1) the extent of teleworking in manufacturing, (2) its adjustment to the industrial sector (challenges and benefits), and (3) its prospects for the future. To this end, 31 in-depth interviews have been conducted with four Plant Managers and seven Human Resource Directors of 11 industrial companies in Burgos (Spain) and surroundings, as well as 20 of their workers. Pre-pandemic teleworking was only active in one of the enterprises and now there are workers that work remotely in 9 out of 11. All interviewees agreed that teleworking will gradually expand. The study shows concerns and challenges when it comes to communication, trust, control, and productivity. It highlights the importance of establishing clear policies on teleworking and how to deal with remuneration, expense reimbursements, and equity between teleworkers and on-site workers. Overall, industrial-sector teleworking has brought positive results in terms of productivity and job satisfaction levels, but it has also resulted in new demands on aspects such as ergonomics, negative habits (food and physical inactivity), communication, and work–life balance.This research was funded by Junta de Castilla y León through the call “Subsidies aimed at carrying out research projects in occupational risk prevention by the public universities of Castilla y León (2022)”, of the Order of 30 December 2021, by the Ministry of Employment and Industry within the project “Tele risks: Teleworking in the industrial sector, opportunities and threats in Occupational Risk Prevention.

Depopulation, territory and community. Experiences of social participation in the province of Burgos
No full textEste artículo indaga sobre los procesos de dinamización colectiva en territorios rurales de la denominada “España vaciada”. Frente a planteamientos que asumen el debilitamiento del capital social que genera la pérdida de población, el artículo analiza la irrupción de asociaciones con capacidad de movilización a partir de un fuerte sentimiento de arraigo y comunidad. Se trata de un estudio exploratorio cuya mirada teórica resulta de aspectos vinculados con los conceptos de participación e innovación social y comunidad. La propuesta de análisis es cualitativa, y se trabaja a partir del caso de cinco experiencias localizadas en el sureste de la provincia de Burgos. Los resultados muestran el peso del arraigo sobre la acción movilizadora. A pesar de la complejidad de la despoblación, se sostiene que este tipo de entidades pueden resultar recursos sugerentes para la construcción de lazos comunitarios en el territorio.This paper explores the processes of collective dynamization that are recently emerging in rural territories of the so-called "Empty Spain". In response to the perspectives that assume the weakening of social capital produced by population decline, the study analyzes the emergence of associations which are being able to mobilize based on great local rooting and community. This is an exploratory study whose theoretical framework derive from issues related to the notion of participation and social innovation, and community. The analitical approach is qualitative, and it is carried out on the case of five experiences placed in the Southeast of the province of Burgos. The results demonstrate the weight of rootedness on mobilizing action. Despite the complexity of depopulation, the paper higlights that these entities could be considered stimulating tools for community building at territorial level
25 Years Working with Green Steel Slag Concrete
No full textComunicación oral presentada en: Building for the Future: Durable, Sustainable, Resilient (fib symposium) 2023, celebrado en Estambul (Turquía) durante los días 5-7 de junio.Industrial production of iron and steel within Spain has historically
been situated in the north area of Spain. Although a major economic activity for
the region, the industry also generates large volumes of waste that have hitherto
been dumped in unsightly landfill sites. Over 25 years ago, a group of engineers
and researchers from the same area set themselves the challenge of regenerating this waste. In this study, the advances developed in the technology of green
slag concrete are reviewed, focusing on the expertise that the research group has
accumulated over the past 25 years. Electric arc furnace slag is a stony material
that is now often used as aggregate in hydraulic and bituminous mixes. Its use
in hydraulic cement-based materials and the important properties of slag aggregates for mix workability are analyzed. Likewise, the mechanical behavior and
the durability of slag concrete specimens is presented, paying special attention
to expansive compounds and to the performance of electric arc furnace concrete
in marine environments. In addition, real scale elements manufactured with slag
concrete and their behavior are analyzed, as well as the advantages of applying
current standards to their design. Finally, new lines of research are discussed for
the use of electric arc furnace slag in cement-based materials.This research work was supported by the Spanish Ministry of Universities, MICINN, AEI, EU, ERDF and NextGenerationEU [grant numbers PID2020-113837RB-I00; 10.13039/501100011033; TED2021-129715B-I00]; the Junta de Castilla y León (Regional Government) and ERDF [grant number UIC-231]; and the University of Burgos [grant number SUCONS, Y135.GI]
Uso de anestesia local sin torniquete Walant en tendinitis de Quervain: una revisión sistemática
No full textPóster presentado en: IX Congreso Internacional en Contextos Clínicos y de la Salud. Murcia, 5-6 de julio de 2023INTRODUCCIÓN: La mano es una de las estructuras anatómicas más complejas del cuerpo humano. En la mayoría de las actividades, es responsable tanto de los movimientos de prensión gruesos como de los movimientos de prensión diestros y finos. El método WALANT ha cambiado radicalmente la práctica de la cirugía de la mano en general, considerándose seguro, económico y con un alto grado de satisfacción de los pacientes. ¿Cuáles son los beneficios de la aplicación de la técnica Walant en la cirugía de las lesiones de la tendinitis De Quervain? ¿Cuáles son los resultados con respecto al dolor y otras variables? OBJETIVO: Esta revisión sistemática investigó los resultados en pacientes adultos sometidos a cirugía de la mano con Walant en tendinitis De Quervain. METODOLOGÍA: Se realizó una búsqueda exhaustiva en las bases de datos Pubmed/Medline, EBSCOhost, Web of Science, Scopus, ScienceDirect y Google Scholar de todos los ensayos clínicos aleatorizados que informaban de los resultados clínicos de la tendinitis De Quervain en comparación con otras anestesias. Se utilizó el método PRISMA como base metodológica, y los estudios fueron analizados con la escala CASP. RESULTADOS: De un total de 106 artículos encontrados en las distintas bases de datos, solo 2 cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión y se seleccionaron para la revisión sistemática. DISCUSIÓN: La inyección de anestesia local fue significativamente más dolorosa que el uso de torniquetes (técnica WALANT). La puntuación de ansiedad fue menor en el grupo WALANT. Las incidencias de parestesias y de dolor fueron similares. Los pacientes de WALANT tuvieron menor duración de la estancia. CONCLUSIÓN: La presente revisión demostró que WALANT se asoció con un alto nivel de satisfacción de los pacientes. Por lo tanto, debido a su relevancia clínica y calidad asistencial, WALANT debería proponerse en primera línea para la cirugía de extremidades distales
