"A x A", the cultural dimension of Arquitectura journal. 1977-1980
No full textEl artículo examina la evolución de la revista Arquitectura,
del Colegio Oficial de Arquitectos de Madrid, bajo la
dirección de Jerónimo Junquera, Estanislao Pérez Pita
entre 1977-1980. Durante su liderazgo, la revista
experimentó una transformación significativa al
convertirse en un espacio interdisciplinar que abrazó la
diversidad de conceptos y perspectivas. La innovación
más destacada radicó en su concepción de la arquitectura
como un "fenómeno cultural" que desembocó en la
creación, junto a Gabriel Allende, de la primera galería
consagrada a la arquitectura en España," A x A". La revista
adoptó una estructura fragmentada y desafiante, ligada al
pastiche, promoviendo un enfoque descentrado que
fomentó la diversidad de marcos teóricos y
colaboradores. Esta mirada reconoció elementos
minoritarios en la cultura española apoyándose en un
consejo de redacción que introdujo temas relacionados
con el arte y la cultura.
Arquitectura introdujo una perspectiva posmoderna en la
arquitectura española, contraviniendo las narrativas
hegemónicas, promoviendo la pluralidad de formatos y
generando nuevas perspectivas. En resumen, el artículo
destaca cómo Arquitectura se convirtió en un foro de
innovación y cambio en la cultura arquitectónica española.This article examines the evolution of Arquitectura, the
journal of the Colegio Oficial de Arquitectos de Madrid,

pastiche, promoting a decentred approach that
encouraged a diversity of theoretical frameworks and
collaborators. This approach recognised minority
elements in Spanish culture, supported by an editorial
board that introduced themes related to art and culture.
Arquitectura introduced a postmodern perspective on

Evaluation of a proposal to improve the thermal characteristics of a vulnerable dwelling in Ushuaia, Patagonia Argentina, using indigenous natural materials
No full textEl presente trabajo narra el estudio realizado sobre una
vivienda ubicada en la ciudad de Ushuaia, Patagonia,
Argentina, construida en un contexto social vulnerable.
Dadas las características climáticas de la zona, el gas
propano se encuentra subsidiado en un 99,5%. El consumo
energético anual es de 712,4 kWh/m2 para calefactar una
vivienda de 43,6 m2
. El objetivo principal del estudio se
centra en evaluar una propuesta para mejorar la resistencia
térmica de la envolvente. Para ello se han realizado
ensayos de conductividad térmica a cuatro muestras con
diferentes dosificaciones de arcilla y virutas de madera y,
posteriormente, se ha modificado la transmitancia térmica
de la envolvente mediante la aplicación el material
ensayado. Por último, se han desarrollado una serie de
simulaciones energéticas cuantificando la reducción de la
demanda de calefacción, obteniendo un ahorro del 28%
mediante la aplicación del material ensayado.This paper describes the study of a house in the city of
Ushuaia, Patagonia, Argentina, built in a vulnerable social
context. Given the climatic characteristics of the a rea,
propane gas is 99.5% subsidised. Annual energy
consumption is 712.4 kWh/m2 to heat a 43.6 m2 house.
The study's main objective is to evaluate a proposal to
improve the thermal resistance of the envelope. For this
purpose, thermal conductivity tests were carried out on
four samples with different clay and wood chip dosages
and, subsequently, the thermal transmittance of the
envelope was modified by applying the tested material.
Finally, a series of energy simulations were developed to
quantify heating demand reduction, obtaining a saving of
28% by applying the tested material.

Water edges. The productive as a project technique in mediation with the limit of the sea
No full textEste articulo traza una trayectoria de aprendizaje del patrimonio cultural y arquitectónico estableciendo una narrativa entorno a los inicios de la constitución productiva de los bordes de agua en el territorio litoral atlántico. Se centra en los intercambios y transferencias entre acuicultura y arquitectura, mediante unas construcciones planteadas a partir de procedimientos anónimos constituidas como infraestructuras productivas, casi ocultas y apenas estudiadas, que yacen dispersas articulando el espacio batiente de la costa peninsular atlántica.
Se pone de manifiesto que, en la contemporaneidad, las estrategias de producción industriales han colonizado gran parte de nuestro planeta, instaurando nuevas identidades antropológicas, paisajísticas y culturales. De esta forma, las distintas sociedades asumen "lo artificial" como hábitat, siendo una vía para la transformación de las diferentes dinámicas vitales en la búsqueda del sustento y creando un territorio orientado al trabajo.
Esta situación, pone en valor el acercamiento hacia aquellos vestigios o construcciones preindustriales que trataron de trabajar con las sinergias naturales y el territorio. Así, se establece una oportunidad para recorrer las huellas de la domesticación del hábitat en los bordes de agua, donde la sociedad establecía enlaces a través de las ecologías artificiales en la explotación de los recursos naturales cercanos.This article traces a learning trajectory of cultural and architectural heritage, establishing a narrative around the beginning of the productive constitution of water edges in the Atlantic coastal territory. lt focuses on the exchanges and transfers between aquaculture and architecture, through constructions raised from anonymous procedures constituted as productive infrastructures, almost hidden and barely studied, which lie dispersed articulating the swinging space of the Atlantic peninsular coast.
lt shows that in contemporary times, post-ecological ar industrial production strategies have colonized a large part of our planet, establishing new anthropological, landscape and cultural identities. Where, the different societies assume "the artificial" as a habitat, being a way far the transformation of the different vital dynamics in the search far sustenance, creating a work-oriented territory.
This situation values the approach to those vestiges ar pre-industrial constructions that tried to work with natural synergies and the territory, which call into question many of the current problems. Thus, an opportunity is established to explore the traces of the domestication of the habitat at the edges of the water, where society established links through artificial ecologies in the exploitation of nearby natural resources.Sin FinanciaciónNo data JCR 2023; No data SJR 2023; 0,02 C4 IDR 202

Breast cancer survivors suffering from lymphoedema. What really do affect to corporeality/body image? A qualitative study
No full textBreast cancer-related lymphedema is currently one of the most serious complications that most affect the quality of life of women undergoing breast cancer. The aim of this study was to explore in-depth the experience of women who suffer from lymphoedema after breast cancer and how does this condition affect corporeality, with no judgements. For this purpose, a qualitative methodology was followed. In-depth interviews, interviewer's field notes and participants' letters were used for data collection. The participants were twenty Spanish women with lymphoedema after overcome a breast cancer in the past. Healthcare specialists with experience in the topic were also included. Results showed 2 main categories: “From cancer to lymphedema, another disease another disease” and “Potential for transition and transformation towards a new way of life”. As a conclusion, the difficulty in accessing adequate treatment, the need for greater awareness of lymphedema and the importance of the emotional and psychological dimension of this chronic disease. Highlighting the attitudes that these women develop for self-care and the concept of new corporeality. After breast cancer, women with lymphedema experience a drastic change that affects all areas of their lives. The adaptation process, and the search for resources and aid, play a fundamental role in overcoming this process.Sin Financiación6.1 Q1 JCR 2023; 2.578 Q1 SJR 2023; No data IDR 2023UE
Comparative analysis of patellar tendon, achilles tendon and plantar fascia structure in indoor and outdoor football players: a novel cross-sectional study
No full textDifferent sport modalities were associate with tendon adaptation or even tendon disturbances, such as volleyball, soccer or basketball. Purpose: the aim of the present study was to determine de difference between indoor and outdoor football players on patellar tendon (PT), Achilles tendon (AT), plantar fascia (FP) and Hoffa’s fat pad thickness assessed with ultrasound imaging (USI). A cross-sectional study was developed with a total sample of 30 soccer players divided in two groups: outdoor group (n = 15) and indoor group (n = 15). The thickness of PT, AT, PF and Hoffa’s fat pad has been assessed with USI. Hoffa’s fat pad reported significant differences for the left side between groups (P = 0.026). The rest of variables did not show any significant difference (P < 0.05). The ultrasonography assessment of the thickness of the PT, AT and PF did not show differences between outdoor and indoor football players. Hoffa’s fat pad resulted showed a significant decrease for outdoor soccer players with respect futsal players. Thus, it can be considered that the load stimuli received in both soccer players were not enough to produce structural adaptations in PT, AT and PF tissues.Sin Financiación3.8 Q1 JCR 20230.9 Q1 SJR 2023No data IDR 2023UE
(Re)construcción de identidades de género en jóvenes en comunidades de videojuegos
No full textEntre las diferentes plataformas de ocio digital, los videojuegos des-tacan por ser uno de los principales entornos de entretenimientopara jóvenes. Estos generan nuevas formas de socializar en comuni-dades virtuales, en las que es viable (re)construir identidades de gé-nero. Presentamos en este artículo los resultados obtenidos del es-tudio cualitativo basado en grupos de discusión con jóvenes univer-sitarios españoles de la generación Z. Los datos analizados identifi-can distintas formas de socializar entre géneros en las comunidadesde videojuegos, y muestran cómo quienes juegan escogen persona-jes/skins construyendo identidades distintas a las de su género, obien, reproduciéndolas. Constatamos la persistencia de estereotiposreflejados en los personajes femeninos, visible en los discursos reco-gidos. Finalmente, vislumbramos la posibilidad de que estas plata-formas se conviertan en nuevos espacios de sociabilidad más plurales e inclusivos.2021/UEM36No data 2024UE
Anting Behaviour in Wild Strigiformes? A Video-Case in the Little Owl Athene noctua
No full textAnting (using ants for grooming) is a rare behaviour pattern observed in birds. It is more common in Passeriformes than in other avian orders. Anting behaviour has been reported in only a few non-passerine species, or only doubtful observations have been reported, such as in the Strigiformes. Using a trail camera, we recorded a potential example of passive anting behaviour of a nocturnal raptor (Little Owl Athene noctua) in eastern Spain. This circumstantial record of apparent anting behaviour could be of significance, as it appears that Little Owl sometimes exhibits anting behaviour, which has not been previously documented. We think that some avian spreadeagled postures might have previously been misclassified as sunbathing because this behaviour has been poorly studied, whereas they may have actually involved anting behaviour.Sin Financiación0.5 Q4 JCR 20230.223 Q4 SJR 2023No data IDR 2023UE
The Advertising of Scale Models as Educational Technical Toys: Case study of Revell´s Marketing Strategy (1957-2023)
No full textThis chapter analyzes the advertising strategy of a brand that produce, distribute, and sell scale models (technical toys sector) all over the world. The firm analyzed is Revell, an international model-making company founded in North America in 1943, whose promotional strategy, since the mid-20th century, includes educational and didactic messages aimed at children and young people of different ages. The objective of this research is to present a new vision on the historical evolution of the advertising communication of Revell. It is the first time that a rigorous analysis of the advertising messages of scale modeling brand has been carried out, taking into account that the publications on this sector deal more with commercial, industrial or business aspects, and have focused mainly on the evolution of brands from the perspective of changes and transformations of their own products, not from the analysis of advertising communication.Sin financiaciónSPI 2022UE
