Iconographie: Dirsh, 1965: 444; Mestre, 1988: 201. Espèce bien représentée au Nimba, où elle a déjà été citée par Chopard (1958: 148) et par Dirsh (1963: 218). De nombreuses nouvelles captures ont été faites depuis. Elle est surtout présente dans les milieux herbacés bas tels que ceux que l’on trouve au bord des routes (Gopoupleu, Nimpleu, Yéalé, Bossou, Ziéla) ou les prairies sur cuirasse (Niomouya), les pelouses (Ziéla) et aussi les prairies inondables (Gbakoré). La brousse secondaire basse est aussi bien fréquentée (Gopoupleu, Nimpleu), de même que les cultures (champs de riz, de café) et les défrichements; on la trouve encore assez fréquemment au bord des sentiers en forêt primaire ou secondaire (Nimba N. E., Tiapleu, Yéalé, Bié, galerie forestière du Zougué), moins en savane (Ziéla, Kéoulenta, plateau de Zouguépo), et très peu en prairie d’altitude (1 mâle à 1300 m entre le Zougué et le Gouan, 6.III.1981, Girard et Lamotte); 1 femelle du mont Tô, Camp 1, II-VI.1942, M. Lamotte). Milieux non précisés pour Nzo, Nion, Thio, Yalanzou. Des adultes ont été trouvés de septembre à mai, des jeunes de septembre à février. Il pourrait y avoir 2 ou 3 générations par an, avec reproduction plus ou moins continue, comme cela a été signalé dans d’autres régions.Published as part of Roy, Roger, 2003, Les Acridiens du Nimba et de sa région, pp. 311-392 in Mémoires du Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle 190 on page 36
Spatially-localized time dependent solutions including turbulence and their interactions in 2D Kolmogorov flow
No full textIn 2D Kolmogorov flow in small aspect ratio domains, spatially-localized solutions such as kink, traveling or time-dependent kink-antikink pars coexist. However, the conservation of the flow rate in the y direction strongly restrict combination of localized solutions and their positioning. We find that by adding a homogeneous flow U y their positioning is controlled and each of localized solutions including a spatially-localized chaos is isolated. Numerical results suggest that these isolated solutions can be elements constructing a whole flow

El dietario proporcionará una dieta dependiendo de las necesidades del usuario, que incluirá detalles de cada alimento, y el cómputo total de la comida, con un desglose de los macronutrientes, para que el usuario pueda adquirir conocimientos y comprender las diferencias entre las diversas ingestas.
Este trabajo se va a centrar más en la parte de entrenamiento que permite al usuario registrado confeccionar planes de entrenamientos personalizados. El usuario podrá realizar tantos planes como necesite ya que sus objetivos pueden evolucionar o sus condiciones cambiar a lo largo del tiempo. Por lo tanto, podrá llevar un seguimiento de su actividad física viendo los distintos entrenamientos generados y realizados.
La aplicación desarrollada utiliza algoritmos para generar planes de entrenamiento detallados, incluyendo imágenes descriptivas, número de repeticiones y descansos entre series. Para ello tiene en cuenta variables como la cantidad de días, el tiempo disponible o el material del que se dispone.
Las tecnologías utilizadas en las diferentes capas de la aplicación son Angular y Bootstrap para el frontend, con algunas implementaciones en Typescript. El backend se ha desarrollado en Python y se comunica con la base de datos implementada en Firebase y con un api externo que proporciona información sobre los diferentes ejercicios que se pueden realizar.[EN] This Final Degree Project focuses on the development of an online fitness platform that includes the dietary and training modules.
The dietary will provide a diet depending on the user's needs, which will include details of each food, and the total meal count, with a breakdown of the macronutrients, so that the user can acquire knowledge and understand the differences between the various intakes.
This work is going to focus more on the training part which allows the registered user to make personalised training plans. The user will be able to make as many plans as he/she needs as his/her objectives may evolve or conditions may change over time. Therefore, they will be able to keep track of their physical activity by viewing the different workouts generated and carried out.
The developed application uses algorithms to generate detailed training plans, including descriptive images, number of repetitions and rests between sets. It considers variables such as the number of days, the time available and the material available.
The technologies used in the different layers of the application are Angular and Bootstrap for the frontend, with some Typescript implementations. The backend has been developed in Python and communicates with the database implemented in Firebase and with an external API that provides information on the different exercises that can be carried out.Rozalén Maiques, C.

Characteristics of overlap region in high-Reynolds number turbulent channel flow
No full textDirect numerical simulation of the fully developed turbulent channel flows have been carried out at the Reynolds number based on the friction velocity and the channel half width, 2000, 4000 and 8000. A hybrid 10th order accurate finite difference scheme in the stream and spanwise directions, and a second-order scheme in the wall-normal direction is adapted as the spatial discretization method. We observed the plateau profiles in the indicator function corresponded to the von Karman constant. Furthermore, second peak of streamwise pre-multiplied spectra were appeared in the same wall normal height, 300 < y+ < 600, in case of Re = 4000. Nevertheless, the effects of the lager than the channel half height scale on the streamwise turbulent intensity are fixed contributions without dependence on Reynolds number. These results suggested that the new streamwise vortexes are formed between buffer layer and outer layer with increasing of Reynolds number

Zuanon. Diagnosis. Peckoltia compta can be distinguished from all of its congeners by presenting a clear stripe inside the dark brown bars running from snout tip to anterior margin of eyes (vs. absence of the clear stripe and a mottled appearance in P. vittata, and a mix of vermiculations and spots on the head of the other congeners). It can be further distinguished from its congeners (except from P. b a c h i) by the presence of small dark brown spots only on fin rays, rarely reaching the interradial membranes (vs. dark spots on interradial membranes or dark stripes covering the whole fin or plain). It can be distinguished from P. b a c h i by the interorbital distance, 31.1-32.9 (vs. 51.5 –71.0% HL). Peckoltia compta can be distinguished from all its congeners except P. bachi, P. braueri, P. brevis, P. cavatica, P. lineola and P. vittata by its larger cleithral width 32.3–34.6 (vs. 20.8–32.4 % SL). It can be distinguished from all its congeners except P. cavatica, P. s nethlageae and P. sabaji by its smaller head depth 57.8–62.2 (vs. 63.5–87.7 % HL). Description.

Author self-citation in orthodontics is associated with author origin and gender.
No full textBACKGROUND
The aims of this bibliometric study were to determine author self-citation trends in high-impact orthodontic literature and to investigate possible association between self-citation and publication characteristics.
METHODS
Six orthodontic journals with the highest impact factor as ranked by 2017 Journal Citation Reports were screened for a full publication year (2018) for original research articles, reviews, and case reports. Eligible articles were scrutinized for article and author characteristics and citation metrics. Univariable and multivariable negative binomial regression was used to examine associations between self-citation incidence and publication characteristics.
RESULTS
Medians for author self-citation rate of the most self-citing authors and self-citations were 3.03% (range 0-50) and 1 (range 0-19), respectively. In the univariable analysis, there was no association between self-citation counts and study type (P = 0.41), article topic (P = 0.61), number of authors (P = 0.62), and rank of authors (P = 0.56). Author origin (P = 0.001), gender (P = 0.001) and journal (P = 0.05) were associated with self-citation counts and in the multivariable analysis only origin and gender remained strong self-citation predictors. Asian authors and females self-cited significantly less often than all other regions and male authors.
CONCLUSIONS
Authors in orthodontics do not self-cite at a frequency that suggests potential citation manipulation. Author origin and gender were the only variables associated with citations counts. More bibliometric research is necessary to draw solid conclusions about author self-citation trends in orthodontic literature

Author Co-Citation Analysis (ACA): a powerful tool for representing implicit knowledge of scholar knowledge workers
No full textIn the last decade, knowledge has emerged as one of the most important and valuable organizational assets. Gradually this importance caused to emergence of new discipline entitled ―knowledge management‖. However one of the major challenges of knowledge management is conversion implicit or tacit knowledge to explicit knowledge. Thus Making knowledge visible so that it can be better accessed, discussed, valued or generally managed is a long-standing objective in knowledge management. Accordingly in this paper author co- citation analysis (ACA) will be proposed as an efficient technique of knowledge visualization in academia (Scholar knowledge workers)
