    No full text
    [ES] RIAD (2010) es un equipo de innovación docente, de carácter interdisciplinar, cuyo objetivo es trabajar competencias transversales entre distintas titulaciones a partir de un modelo de enseñanza-aprendizaje basado en proyectos, favorecido por el contexto de una U.P. que favorece el intercambio entre profesores y alumnos de distintas disciplinas con objetivos comunes. Desarrollado mediante una metodología de aprendizaje basado en proyectos en equipo, propicia la aparición de sinergias y una formación universitaria próxima a la práctica profesional. Se diseñó un proyecto que aglutinara las peculiaridades de las distintas disciplinas: el diseño de una bodega, con posibilidades de realización. Se implementaron sucesivos proyectos de innovación y mejora educativa (PIME) como estrategia docente. (2010/2011): “desarrollo de una metodología de enseñanza-aprendizaje orientada hacia la adquisición de competencias mediante el desarrollo de proyectos multidisciplinares”. (2011/2012):“desarrollo y evaluación de competencias transversales mediante metodologías de enseñanza-aprendizaje interdisciplinares”. Las tareas derivadas de dicho PIME promovieron la aparición de un blog como foro de interacción entre profesores y alumnos, siendo el germen para el que se realizó durante el curso PIME 2012/2013 “El blog como portafolio virtual de un proyecto interdisciplinar”.Palomares Figueres, MT.; Portalés Mañanós, AM.; Esteve Sendra, MC.; Vargas Colás, MD.; Sebastiá Frasquet, MT.; Babiloni Griñón, ME.; Babiloni Griñón, M....

    Adapting the Rhetoric of Authentication of Riad Sattouf’s La Vie secrète des jeunes

    No full text
    The comic book series La Vie secrète des jeunes is a sardonic account of French young people’s behaviours witnessed from the voyeuristic viewpoint of its author-illustrator, Riad Sattouf. Despite its caricatural and non-photorealistic visual style, the work conveys a strong sense of authenticity, mixing truth claims borrowed from established non-fiction traditions (journalism, autobiography and documentary). It is also a rare example of a non-fiction comic turned into live action. This article considers the comic and its TV adaptation, and discusses film’s ability to adapt an account of truth rooted in comics ontology. The article first provides a theoretical structure that details the intricacy of repeating the truth from comic to film. Second, it highlights the way in which the comic develops its authenticity by constantly reaffirming Sattouf’s presence and subjectivity. The article aims to show that the adaptation anonymises this viewpoint in order to re-construct the authenticity of its reality.</jats:p

    Construction et déconstruction de la masculinité hégémonique dans L’Arabe du futur 1 : Une jeunesse au Moyen-Orient (1978-1984) de Riad Sattouf

    No full text
    Through the analysis of the graphic novel L'Arabe du future 1. Une jeunesse au Moyen-Orient (1978-1985) by the Franco-Syrian cartoonist Riad Sattouf, this contribution aims to investigate the construction of hegemonic masculinity in Gaddafi's post-colonial Libya and Hafez al Assad's Syria. First, this study intends to track the stages of Riad's journey towards the achievement of hegemonic masculinity. In this context, a special focus will be laid on the construction of the mother's character through that of the father, thereby showing how the female character takes shape from the male perspective. Second and finally, it attempts to analyse how the author implements a deconstruction path of hegemonic masculinity by using certain rhetorical devices, namely irony, stereotype repetition and the adoption of his own perspective as a child

    Radio frequency rectifiers for direct current-direct current power conversion

    Thesis (M. Eng.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2004.Includes bibliographical references (p. 75-78).This electronic version was submitted by the student author. The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.A significant factor driving the development of power conversion technology is the need to increase performance while reducing size and improving efficiency. In addition, there is a desire to increase the level of integration of DC-DC converters in order to take advantage of the cost and other benefits of batch fabrication techniques. While advances in the power density and integration of DC-DC converters have been realized through development of better active device technologies, much room for improvement remains in the size and fabrication of passive components. To achieve these improvements, a substantial increase in operating frequency is needed, since intermediate energy storage requirements are inversely proportional to frequency. Unfortunately, traditional power conversion techniques are ill-suited to handle this dramatic escalation of switching frequency. New architectures have been proposed which promise to deliver radical performance improvements while potentially reaching microwave frequencies. These new architectures promise to enable substantial miniaturization of DC-DC converters and to permit much a higher degree of integration. The principal effort of this thesis is the development of design and characterization methods for rectifier topologies amenable to use in the new architectures. A computational design approach allowing fast and accurate circuit analysis and synthesis is developed and applied, along with traditional analysis, to two demonstrative rectifier topologies. In addition, the application of coupled magnetic structures for parasitic mitigation is considered. Experimental implementations are investigated to verify analytic and computational results.by Riad Samir Wahby.M.Eng

    Analytical and experimental study of bed load distribution at alluvial diversions

    No full text
    It has long been observed that at most canal bifurcations the water diverted to the branch does not carry sediment in direct proportion to the rate of flow. Usually, the major part of sediment reaching a bifurcation is diverted into the small branches. This phenomenon has always bothered engineers responsible for the maintenance of irrigation and navigation canals which branch off relatively large alluvial streams. Experimental studies of this problem have usually been limited to the use of fixed bed flumes in which the velocity of flow was measured at different sections in the vicinity of the bifurcation. The distribution of the velocity both vertically and horizontally were then determined and considered as the basis of comparison between different cases. Some investigators studied the pattern of flow near the bed either by the introduction of sediment particles or pottasium permanganate crystals. In the present experimental study, sand was used as bed material and measurements in any run were only taken after the sand movement had reached equilibrium, when the rate of sediment feeding was equal to the sum of the rates of sediment being trapped at the end of main and branch channels. The experimental set-up consisted of a straight flume 20 m long and 0.80 m wide which represented the main canal and a lO m. X 0.50 m flume which branched off the main flume at 45 degrees, 8.20 m. from the upstream end and which represented the branch canal. At first a series of tests was carried out without a sand bed in order to study the wall roughness. Then the sand bed was introduced and a series of tests was carried out to determine the effect of the ratio between branch and main canal discharges upon the sediment behaviour at the bifurcation. In order to control the rate of sediment diversion into a branch, some artificial means have to be applied. In this respect the writer has experimented with the application of dividing walls which direct the bottom flow and guide vanes which direct the surface flow. In general and within the scope of the experiments, the guide vanes gave the better results. Hence, tests were concentrated on the determination of the best location and direction for such vanes, and the results of these experiments led to the recommendations described on fig. 50.Hydraulic EngineeringCivil Engineering and Geoscience

    Mucocutaneous Pseudoepitheliomatous Hyperplasia

    No full text
    ABSTRACT: Pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia, also called pseudocarcinomatous hyperplasia because of its resemblance to well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma, is a reactive epithelial proliferation that is characterized by prominent irregular hyperplasia of the epithelium with tongue-like epithelial projections into the dermis. This reactive pattern may involve cutaneous or mucosal surfaces and has been described in association with a wide variety of stimuli including infectious, neoplastic, inflammatory, and traumatic among others. In this review, we will discuss the pathophysiology of pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia, the histopathological findings that are helpful in its differentiation from squamous cell carcinoma, and the spectrum of conditions that may show this unique feature on microscopic examination. © 2012 Lippincott Williams and Wilkins, Inc.Abbas O, 2010, J CUTAN PATHOL, V37, P1032, DOI 10.1111-j.1600-0560.2010.01575.x;
