Facultad de Ciencias Jurídicas y Sociales; Argentina.La presente investigación tiene como objetivo analizar el modo en que el Estado argentino intervino en la arena de la innovación productiva durante el período 2002-2011, dando cuenta de las principales características del diseño institucional de los instrumentos de las políticas de esta arena, y el impacto que tuvieron sobre la población objetivo ubicada en la provincia de Santa Fe (PSF). En tal sentido, el trabajo se ubica en la tradición de estudios y análisis de políticas públicas, parte desde una perspectiva institucionalista, y presta especial atención a: i) los momentos de cambios en una arena de política determinada (en este caso, de innovación productiva), ii) los diseños institucionales que adquieren los nuevos instrumentos de políticas, y iii) a la modalidad en que efectivamente se distribuyen los beneficios asignados por los instrumentos entre los actores de la población objetivo fijada por el propio diseño institucional.
La hipótesis de la que parte el trabajo es que en la arena de las políticas de innovación productiva, para el caso del diseño institucional de instrumentos orientados a la demanda, cuanto más libre sea la modalidad de aplicación, más horizontal y competitiva la distribución de los beneficios y si predomina una definición homogénea de la población objetivo, la distribución de beneficios se concentrará en pocos actores, ubicados en los centros económicos más dinámicos y con un predominio de actores con muchos años de antigüedad.This research aims to analyze how the Argentine State intervened in arena production innovation during the period 2002-2011, giving an account of the main features of the institutional design of policy instruments in this arena, and impact they had on the target population located in the province of Santa Fe (PSF). In this sense, the work is in the tradition of studies and policy analysis, part from an institutional perspective and devote special attention to: i) the moments of changes in a given policy arena (in this case, innovation production), ii) institutional designs that acquire new policy instruments and iii) the mode in which they actually benefits assigned by the instruments among the actors of the target population set by the institutional design itself distributed.
The working hypothesis is that in the arena of productive innovation policies, in the case of institutional design demand-driven, the freer mode of application, more horizontal and competitive benefit sharing instruments and if predominates a uniform definition of the target population, the distribution of benefits will be concentrated in a few actors, located in the most dynamic economic centers and with a predominance of actors with many years

New Stationary Frame Control Scheme for Three Phase PWM Rectifiers Under Unbalanced Voltage Dips Conditions
No full textA new stationary frame control scheme for three-phase pulsewidth-modulation (PWM) rectifiers operating under unbalanced voltage dips conditions is proposed in this paper. The proposed control scheme regulates the instantaneous active power at the converter poles to minimize the harmonics of the input currents and the output voltage ripple. This paper's novelty is the development of a new current-reference generator implemented directly in stationary reference frame. This allows using proportional sinusoidal signal integrator (P-SSI) controllers for simultaneous compensation of both positive and negative current sequence components. No phase-locked loop (PLL) strategies and coordinate transformations are needed for the proposed current-reference generator. Experimental results are presented for a 20-kV A alternative current (ac)/direct current (dc) converter prototype to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme. A comparison with two other existing control techniques is also performed. Fast dynamic performance with small dc-link voltage ripple and input sinusoidal currents are obtained with this control scheme, even under severe voltage dips operating condition

Modeling and simulation of dissolution and erosion of porous solids
No full textTablet dissolution modeling has seen multiple eff orts from both empirical and physical approaches. We present an expandable 3-D Cartesian framework for modeling many of the physical processes involved in tablet dissolution, which allows for powerful model manipulation. The primary focus of this framework is the way in which the moving boundaries are handled, while the internal mechanisms represent one possible set of physical process interaction. The effects of external fluid shear and internal density profiles are compared for several cases including active and inactive internal processes.M.S.Includes bibliographical referencesIncludes vitaby Daniel Braid
Characterization and modeling the dissolution performance of tablets focusing on powder processing effects
No full textTablet dissolution modeling has seen many efforts from both empirical and physical approaches. We present an expandable 3-D Cartesian framework for modeling multiple physical processes involved in tablet dissolution, which allows for a more straightforward generation of models while maintaining powerful model manipulation. Also presented is an experimental technique for quantifying solvent penetration and dynamic surface erosion. Two types of solid oral dosage forms are experimentally characterized and then modeled. One system is governed by drug particle dissolution, the other by surface erosion.Ph. D.Includes bibliographical referencesIncludes vitaby Daniel Braid
Algunas reflexiones sobre el libro Orden y violencia, de Daniel Pécaut
No full textFirstly, the article consists of a general presentation of the book Orden and Violence: Colombia 1930-1953 by Daniel Pécaut, in all relevant aspects. Secondly, it offers an exegetical work to define the interlocutors of the work and the main theoretical referents the author brings to bear. Thirdly, it seeks to demonstrate the distinction between the real, the symbolic, and the imaginary of Jacques Lacan, and, above all, how this distinction is elaborated by philosopher Claude Lefort, who has a central presence in the book. Fourthly, the article presents a synthesis of the book to illustrate the premises discussed throughout the text.El trabajo consiste, en primer lugar, en hacer una presentación general de la obra Orden y violencia: Colombia 1930-1953 de Daniel Pécaut, en todos los aspectos pertinentes. En segundo lugar, se trata de llevar a cabo un trabajo exegético para definir los interlocutores de la obra y los principales referentes teóricos que el autor trae a cuento. En tercer lugar, se trata de mostrar la distinción entre lo real, lo simbólico y lo imaginario de Jacques Lacan, y, sobre todo, la manera como esta distinción es elaborada por el filósofo Claude Lefort, quien tiene una presencia central en el libro. En cuarto lugar, se hace una síntesis del libro para ilustrar los planteamientos elaborados a lo largo del texto
The transhumanism of Paul B. Preciado: on the antirealist fictions of contrasexual Manifiesto
No full textEn este artículo se propone un análisis crítico de algunos de los principales relatos que sostienen la narrativa postqueer de Paul-Beatriz Preciado, partiendo del supuesto de que toda identidad sexual es una ficción y toda realidad, una construcción psico-social. Mostraremos el modo en que la ficcionalidad biopo- lítica y el constructivismo trans-humanista del autor borran la consistencia ontológica de lo real, lo irreductible de la diferencia sexual, a la mujer como sujeto político del feminismo y, en última instancia, al feminismo como proyecto po- lítico emancipatorio.The current article aims at a critical analysis of some of the main tales around which Paul B. Preciado develops his post-queer political narrative, based on the assumption that all sexual identity is fiction and all reality a psycho-social construction. We will try to show the way in which the bio-political fiction and trans-humanist constructivism of the author erase the ontological consistency of the real, the irreducibility of sexual difference, the woman as the political subject of feminism, and ultimately feminism itself as an emancipatory political project.Fil: Binetti, María José.

Does"grease money"speed up the wheels of commerce?
No full textIf bureaucratic burden and delay are exogenous, a firm may find bribes a helpful way to cut through red tape. According to the"efficient grease"hypothesis, corruption can improve economic efficiency, and,fighting bribery can be counterproductive. This need not be the case. In a general equilibrium in which regulatory burden and delay can be endogenously chosen by rent-seeking bureaucrats, the effective (not just nominal) red tape and bribery may be positively correlated across firms. Using data from three worldwide firm-level surveys, the authors examine the relationship between bribe and payments, management time wasted with bureaucrats, and cost of capital. They find that firms that pay more in bribes are also likely to spend more, not less, management time with bureaucrats, negotiating regulations. They also face a higher, not lower, cost of capital.Public Sector Corruption&Anticorruption Measures,Decentralization,Pharmaceuticals&Pharmacoeconomics,Social Policy,Corruption&Anitcorruption Law,Governance Indicators,Public Sector Corruption&Anticorruption Measures,Corruption&Anitcorruption Law,TF054599-PHRD-KYRGYZ REPUBLIC: WATER MANAGEMENT IMPROVEMENT PROJECT,Pharmaceuticals&Pharmacoeconomics
