    Alma Biehoff-Buscher: Color i forma a la Bauhaus, un nou món per als infants.

    No full text
    [ES] La Bauhaus se caracterizó por un enfoque revolucionario en el uso del color y la forma en el diseño. Estos aspectos jugaron un papel esencial en el desarrollo del estilo y la estética. Debido a ello, la escuela multidisciplinar tuvo una influencia fundamental en el desarrollo del diseño moderno y ha dejado una marca duradera en múltiples campos creativos. En este trabajo se estudia la figura de Alma Buscher, cómo alumna de la Bauhaus, centrándose en su significativa contribución en el ámbito del diseño y la pedagogía, así como en su enfoque innovador y experimental. Alma fue la primera alumna en crear propuestas centradas en el diseño infantil. Interesada profundamente por los nuevos principios pedagógicos, diseñaba juguetes modernos que fueran adecuados para los niños. Apuesta por la producción de juguetes que fueran claros, y de proporciones lo más armónicas posible, contando siempre con el uso de colores primarios, “para realzar la alegría del color y el contento del niño”. Con este escrito se pretende evidenciar cómo la teoría de la Gestalt influyó en la obra de Alma Siedhoff-Buscher debido principalmente a su paso por la Escuela de la Bauhaus, y cómo esto contribuye a su obra con la aplicación del color, la forma y el diseño de espacios centrados para los niños.[EN] The Bauhaus was characterized by a revolutionary approach to the use of color and form in design. These aspects played an essential role in the development of style and aesthetics. Because of this, the multidisciplinary school had a fundamental influence on the development of modern design and has left a lasting mark on multiple creative fields. This work studies the figure of Alma Buscher, as a Bauhaus student, focusing on her significant contribution in the field of design and pedagogy, as well as her innovative and experimental approach. Alma was the first student to create proposals focused on children's design. Deeply interested in new pedagogical principles, she designed modern toys that were suitable for children. She opted for the production of toys that were clear, and with proportions that were as harmonious as possible, always counting on the use of primary colors, “to enhance the joy of the color and the contentment of the child.” This paper aims to show how Gestalt theory influenced the work of Alma Siedhoff-Buscher mainly due to her time at the Bauhaus School, and how this contributes to her work with the application of color, shape and design of spaces centered for children.Ortiz Giménez, M.

    Pressure signal transmission of five commercially available oesophageal balloon catheters

    Objective: Five commercially available oesophageal balloon catheters (OBCs) were tested to evaluate the accuracy in transmitting fast-changing pressure signals which can be observed, for example, during phrenic nerve stimulation. Setting: Research laboratory of a university hospital. Method: The OBCs tested varied in length (900-1390 mm) and inner diameter (0.9-1.5 mm) as well as in balloon material [latex or polyvinylchloride (PVC)]. A 180-cm tube served as a control. A sudden pressure drop was generated by the explosion of a pressurized latex balloon. The time between the pressure drop and 75, 50, 25 and 10% of the maximal pressure was measured. Results: The time intervals required to transduce a pressure drop of 90 % varied between the different OBCs from 85 to 476 ms(control 32 ms). Transmission time was lower in OBCs with a larger inner diameter. Shortening the OBCs resulted in a further decrease in transmission time. Conclusion: The type of OBC used has an impact on signal processing. An OBCs with a short transmission time should be chosen, especially if fast pressure changes are to be evaluated such as during phrenic nerve stimulation

    Decoding the role of tectonics, incision and lithology on drainage divide migration in the Mt. Alpi region, southern Apennines, Italy

    The proclivity of river networks to progressively carve mountain surfaces and preserve markers of landscape adjustments has made analyses of fluvial systems fundamental for understanding the topographic development of orogens. However, the transient nature of uplift and erosion has posed a challenge for inferring the roles that tectonics and/or climate have played on generating topographic relief. The Mt. Alpi region in the southern Apennines has a heterogeneous distribution of elevated topography, erosionally-resistant lithology and uplift, making the area optimal for conducting topographic and river analyses to better understand the landscape development of a transient orogen. Stream length-gradient, normalized channel steepness, stream convexity and first-order channel gradient indices from 10 m digital elevation data from the region exhibit stream profile inconsistencies along the current drainage divide and a dominance of high values subparallel but inboard of the primary chain axis irrespective of known transient landscape factors, suggesting that the current river network may be in a state of transition. The location of these stream profile anomalies both near the modern drainage divide and subparallel to an isolated swath of high topography away from catchment boundaries is thought to be the topographic expression of an imminent drainage divide migration driven primarily by the ~ northeast-vergent extension of the western chain axis

    Moving towards a new view of diagnostic work : some implications

    No full text
    The diverse studies of diagnostic work in this book give shape to a new view of diagnostic work. They highlight just how much more than individual cognitive capability is needed, the close relationship between analysis and intervention, the often implicit nature of diagnosis, and the fact that there are several degrees or levels of diagnostic work. Different knowledges, motivations, skills and forms of expertise are mobilised in often collaborative and embodied encounters between people and objects. Matter and matters are made to speak in many ways through social, material and embodied practices. We would like to argue that this ʼnew view’ of diagnostic work does not just ‘explain’ diagnosis in a more precise and sensitive manner. Indeed, in light of the rich descriptions in this book, the attempt to summarise the new view above exposes explanation as an unsatisfactorily abstract endeavour. The studies in this book, importantly, provide much more than explanation. They exhibit the specificities of diagnostic practices in different settings, some important intended and unintended consequences, moral and political implications, as well as opportunities for change

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    No full text
    We 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
