Analysis 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.

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..
Dépendance à l’oxyde nitrique inhalé en postopératoire immédiat de transplantation pulmonaire
No full textIntroduction : bien que l’utilisation de l'oxyde nitrique inhalé au cours de la transplantation pulmonaire soit toujours débattue, son administration est systématique à l’hôpital Foch. Ceci nous a conduit à constater qu’un groupe de patients ne peut être sevré de l’oxyde nitrique inhalé en fin d’intervention. L'objectif de ce travail est d’identifier les causes de la dépendance à l’oxyde nitrique inhalé en fin d’intervention et de rechercher si celle-ci est un marqueur pronostic. Matériels et méthodes : l’étude porte sur la période comprise entre le 1er janvier 2012 et le 1er Janvier 2016. Tous les patients transplantés ont reçu de l’oxyde nitrique inhalé à la concentration de 20 ppm après l’induction anesthésique ou au plus tard au déclampage du premier poumon. Cette concentration a été adaptée au cours de l’intervention pour atteindre la concentration minimale efficace. Un test de sevrage de l’oxyde nitrique inhalé a été réalisé en fin d’intervention. La dépendance à l’oxyde nitrique inhalé a été définie par la survenue d’une hypertension artérielle pulmonaire, d’une dégradation franche de l’hématose ou par l’association de ces deux complications. Résultats : au total, 173 patients ont été inclus dans l’analyse. La dépendance à l’oxyde nitrique inhalé a concerné 10 % des patients. L’index de masse corporelle (OR 1,2; IC 95 1,06-1,38; p = 0,01) et l’utilisation d’une oxygénation par membrane extracorporelle en peropératoire (OR 3,64; IC95 1,25-11,48; p = 0,02) sont des facteurs prédictifs de dépendance à l’oxyde nitrique inhalé. La dépendance à l’oxyde nitrique inhalé (OR 5,15; IC 95 1,37-18,91; p = 0,01) ainsi que la fibrose pulmonaire (OR 6,24; IC 1,62-26,20; p = 0,01), comme indication à la transplantation pulmonaire, sont des facteurs de risque de dysfonction primaire du greffon de grade III. La dépendance à l’oxyde nitrique n’influe pas la mortalité à un an (HR 3,64; IC 95 0,96-13,77; p = 0,06). Conclusion : la dépendance à l’oxyde nitrique inhalé en fin de transplantation pulmonaire est un phénomène constaté dans près de 10 % des cas. Elle prédit de la survenue d’une dysfonction primaire du greffon de grade III, ce qui pourrait inciter à modifier la prise en charge postopératoire
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
