No full textAnalysis of Mathieu Equation Stable Solutions in the First Zone of Stability
No full textAbstractThe paper presents the results of a homogeneous Mathieu equation studies. Mathieu equation solutions are oscillations, modulated in amplitude and frequency. In the computational experiments we found dependences of the given oscillations on the ratio of the coefficients. These dependences are shown in graphs that can be used for an approximate estimation of the Mathieu equation solutions without integration
Pensar las escalas para pensar las luchas: Autor: Mathieu UHEL
No full textA través de un título sugerente, “pensar las escalas para pensar las luchas”, Mathieu Uhel entreteje la construcción teórico-crítica del concepto escala, generada por la geografía radical anglosajona de finales del siglo XX, con la necesidad/utilidad práctica de la escala para concienciar las luchas sociales. El artículo cumple un doble propósito: por un lado, delinear los elementos de lectura sobre el concepto escala; y, con ello, promover la atención de esta problemática en las luchas contemporáneas. En un primer apartado, Uhel ubica las discusiones académicas en torno a la escala, como herramienta metodológica útil para comprender la complejidad de las sociedades capitalistas; en el segundo apartado, el autor avanza la exposición en torno al contexto de la dimensión escalar del imperialismo capitalista; finalmente, el autor se centra en el rol de la actividad política a escala nacional en la tensa relación entre las imposiciones del capital y la lucha social.Por meio de um título sugestivo, “pensando escalas para pensar lutas”, Mathieu Uhel entrelaça a construção teórico-crítica do conceito de escala, gerado pela geografia radical anglo-saxônica do final do século XX, com a necessidade / utilidade prática escala para aumentar a consciência das lutas sociais. O artigo tem um duplo propósito: por um lado, delinear os elementos de leitura sobre o conceito de escala; e, com isso, promover atenção a esse problema nas lutas contemporâneas. Na primeira seção, Uhel localiza as discussões acadêmicas em torno da escala, como uma ferramenta metodológica útil para compreender a complexidade das sociedades capitalistas; na segunda seção, o autor avança a exposição em torno do contexto da dimensão escalar do imperialismo capitalista; por fim, o autor enfoca o papel da atividade política em escala nacional na tensa relação entre as imposições do capital e a luta social.Mathieu Uhel\u27s suggestive title, “Thinking about scales to think about struggles”, he interweaves the theoretical-critical construction of concept scale, generated by radical Anglo-Saxon geography in the late 20th century, with it´s practical utility to social struggles. The article serves two purposes: on the one hand, Uhel locates academic discussion around scale; and, with this, he promotes attention to this problem in contemporary struggles. In the first section, Uhel locates academic discussions around scale, as a useful methodological tool to understand the complexity of capitalist societies; in the second section, the author advances the argument around the context of the scalar dimension of capitalist imperialism; finally, the author focuses on the role of political activity on a national scale in the tense relationship between the impositions of capital and the social movement
Mathieu Ichou, Les Enfants d’immigrés à l’école
No full textIt is common to hear in the fields of educational and immigration sociology that on average, the children of immigrants do not perform as well in school as children of native-born parents. Mathieu Ichou offers an innovative sociological analysis on a topic that is heavily exploited by political and media discourse, and subject to much scientific controversy. The author takes distance from the homogenized vision of a “second generation” of students who have totally failed academically, and rep..
L'impatto dell'attività tintoria sull'ambiente. Firenze alla fine del Medioevo
No full textThe author aims to examine and categorize the range of dyeings materials used in the Florentine wool and silk textile industries in the late Middle Ages, focusing mainly on those produced within the regional space in order to evaluate the impact of the Florentine dyeing activity on the natural environment and the productive landscape of the Tuscan countryside. In particular, the author establishes a line of demarcation between cultivated and uncultivated resources in order to verify which constitutes an indication of the level of industrial development of medieval textile production. This further focuses on how the transition from the exploitation of wild resources to the exploitation of cultivated resources could reflect a greater degree of economic integration between the countryside and the city and contribute to the formation of a regional economic space
Mathieu de Fossey: su visión del mundo indígena mexicano
No full textThroughout these pages the author shows how Mathieu de Fossey perceived that it was not easy to make indigenous communities fit within the mould of the nation-state which, being based on the liberal and egualitarian ideology, was against the recognition of special regimes, such as those that created a peculiar status for the native population of the American territory during the period of Spanish colonial domination
Mathieu de Fossey: su visión del mundo indígena mexicano
No full textÀ travers ces pages, l’auteur montre comment Mathieu de Fossey avait perçu la difficulté d’insérer le monde des communautés indigènes dans le moule d’un État national qui, accroché à une idéologie libérale égalitaire, refusait d’établir des régimes spéciaux comparables à ceux qui, durant la domination espagnole, avaient reconnu un statut particulier aux populations natives du continent américain.A través de estas páginas se muestra cómo Mathieu de Fossey percibió el difícil acoplamiento del mundo de las comunidades indígenas en el molde de un Estado nacional que, por estar sustentado en la ideología liberal igualitaria, era contrario al reconocimiento de regímenes especiales como los que, durante la dominación española, habían establecido un status peculiar para los aborígenes del territorio americano.Throughout these pages the author shows how Mathieu de Fossey perceived that it was not easy to make indigenous communities fit within the mould of the nation-state which, being based on the liberal and egualitarian ideology, was against the recognition of special regimes, such as those that created a peculiar status for the native population of the American territory during the period of Spanish colonial domination
A comparison of primary oesophageal squamous epithelial cells with HET-1A in organotypic culture
No full textBackground Information: Carcinoma of the oesophagus is the 6th leading cause of cancer death in the western world and is associated with a 5-year survival of less than 15%. Recent evidence suggests that stromal-epithelial interactions are fundamental in carcinogenesis. The advent of co-culture techniques permits the investigation of cross-talk between the stroma and epithelium in a physiological setting. We have characterised a histologically representative oesophageal organotypic model, and used it to compare the most commonly used squamous oesophageal cell line, HET-1A, with primary oesophageal squamous cells for use in studies of the oesophageal epithelium in vitro. Results: When grown in an organotypic culture with normal fibroblasts the oesophageal carcinoma cell lines OE21 (squamous) and OE19 (adenocarcinoma) morphologically resembled the tumour of origin with evidence of stromal invasion and mucus production respectively. However, HET-1A cells, which were derived from normal squamous oesophageal cells, appeared dysplastic and failed to display evidence of squamous differentiation. By comparison with primary oesophageal epithelial cells the HET-1A cells were highly proliferative and did not express the epithelial markers E-cadherin or CK5/6, or the stratified epithelial marker ?Np63, but did express the mesenchymal markers vimentin and N-cadherin. Conclusion: Studies of epithelial carcinogenesis will benefit from culture systems which allow the manipulation of the stromal and epithelial layers independently. We have developed an organotypic culture using primary oesophageal squamous cells and fibroblasts in which a stratified epithelium with a proliferative basal layer that stains strongly for ?Np63 develops. This model will be suitable for the study of the molecular events in the development of Barrett's oesophagus. The most commonly used normal oesophageal squamous cell line, HET-1A, does not have the characteristics of normal oesophageal squamous cells, and should not be used in models of the normal oesophageal epithelium. Until more representative cell lines are available, future studies in oesophageal cancer will be reliant on the availability and manipulation of primary tissue
