Centro de I+D+I en Crèmor (Castelló de la Plana)
Get PDF[ES] Situándonos en el borde del Riu Sec perteneciente al barrio Crèmor de la ciudad de Castelló de la Plana, se plantea un centro de Investigación, Desarrollo e Innovación que no interfiera en el paisaje si no que se adapte a él. De esta manera, surge el interés y la necesidad de trabajar íntimamente con el espacio.
Así, se llega a la solución de un gran volumen semienterrado, donde se suceden los espacios de startups y spin offs, en el que se macla un eje compositivo de gran carácter formado por cilindros de diferentes diámetros y alturas en los que aparecen aquellos equipamientos más públicos.Aranda Miragall, M.

Aproximación arquitectónica y diseño estructural del aeropuerto de Stansted de Norman Foster
Get PDFLa nueva terminal del Aeropuerto de Stansted, proyectada por Foster Associates en 1981, es considerada una de las mejores obras de Sir Norman Foster en la década de los ochenta. Dicha terminal, con un arquitecto apasionado de la aviación, se llevó a cabo con el pretexto de devolver al transporte aéreo la emoción de la que gozaban sus pasajeros antes de subir al avión en los años veinte. De la misma manera, sentó las bases de cómo serían las terminales de las grandes estaciones de transporte venideras.
El esquema proyectual de la terminal es claro y completamente representativo de Sir Norman Foster: la separación por niveles de las distintas funciones que puedan desarrollarse en un edificio, la piel transparente que ofrece la relación directa del interior y exterior, la grandiosa importancia con la que mima a la estructura y por la cual Foster apuesta en cada proyecto por superarse en lo que a tecnología se refiere y por último la relación constante con la naturaleza y el entorno que Foster siempre trabaja con detalle.
El proyecto presenta una dualidad estructural y constructiva la cual, íntimamente ligada con la separación por niveles, da como resultado una estructura metálica formada por árboles estructurales que sustentan una cubierta de cúpulas trianguladas ligeras y una estructura de hormigón formada por el forjado reticular aligerado y los soportes de hormigón, los cuales trabajan independientemente entre ellas.
Tras el estudio del edificio se propone un modelo estructural simplificado para posteriormente conocer las solicitaciones y deformaciones del edificio mediante el análisis y el cálculo proporcionado por el software informático Architrave y pudiendo finalmente elaborar una serie de conclusiones verídicas y razonadas con las que determinar el dimensionamiento más adecuado para el conjunto de la estructura.The new Stansted Airport terminal, designed by Foster Associates in 1981, is considered one of the Norman Foster¿s best projects in the eighties. This terminal, with a passionate aviation architect, was carried out under the pretext of returning to air transport the emotion enjoyed by its passengers before boarding the plane in the 1920s. In the same way, it laid the foundations of how would be the terminals of great transport stations to come.
The design of the terminal is clearly and completely representative of Sir Norman foster: the separation by levels of the different functions that can be developed in a building, the transparent skin that offers the direct relation between the interior and the exterior, the great importance with which pamper to the structure and by which Foster bets on every project to be overcome in terms of technology and finally the constant relationship with nature and the environment that Foster always works in detail.
The project presents a structural and constructive duality which, intimately linked with the separation by levels, results in a metallic structure formed by structural trees than support a roof of light triangular domes and a concrete structure formed by the concrete waffle slab and de concrete pillars, which work independently between them.
After the study of the building a simplified structural model is proposed to later know the requests and deformations of the buildings through the analysis and calculation provided by the computer software called Architrave and can finally elaborate a series of veridical and reasoned conclusions with which to determine the most dimensioned suitable for the whole structure.Aranda Miragall, M.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
