Symmetry for the duration of entropy-consuming intervals
No full textWe introduce the violation fraction υ as the cumulative fraction of time that a mesoscopic system spendsconsuming entropy at a single trajectory in phase space.We showthat the fluctuations of this quantity are describedin terms of a symmetry relation reminiscent of fluctuation theorems, which involve a function , which can beinterpreted as an entropy associated with the fluctuations of the violation fraction. The function, when evaluatedfor arbitrary stochastic realizations of the violation fraction, is odd upon the symmetry transformations that arerelevant for the associated stochastic entropy production. This fact leads to a detailed fluctuation theorem for theprobability density function of . We study the steady-state limit of this symmetry in the paradigmatic case of acolloidal particle dragged by optical tweezers through an aqueous solution. Finally, we briefly discuss possibleapplications of our results for the estimation of free-energy differences from single-molecule experiments.Fil: Garcia Garcia, Reinaldo.

Duration of local violations of the second law of thermodynamics along single trajectories in phase space
No full textWe define the violation fraction ν as the cumulative fraction of time that the entropy change is negative during single realizations of processes in phase space. This quantity depends on both the number of degrees of freedom N and the duration of the time interval τ. In the large-τ and large-N limit we show that, for ergodic and microreversible systems, the mean value of ν scales as ⟨ν(N,τ)⟩∼(τN11+α)−1. The exponent α is positive and generally depends on the protocol for the external driving forces, being α=1 for a constant drive. As an example, we study a nontrivial model where the fluctuations of the entropy production are non-Gaussian: an elastic line driven at a constant rate by an anharmonic trap. In this case we show that the scaling of ⟨ν⟩ with N and τ agrees with our result. Finally, we discuss how this scaling law may break down in the vicinity of a continuous phase transition.Fil: Garcia Garcia, Reinaldo. Comisión Nacional de Energía Atómica.

Alfonso Garcia Valdecasas Garcia Valdecasas - vita e opera
No full textLa presente tesis doctoral tiene por objetivo analizar la obra y el pensamiento de Alfonso Garcia Valdecasas y Garcia Valdecasas. El estudio se encuadra en el área del derecho romano puesto que él comenzó su carrera como iusromanista, doctorándose en Bolonia como colegial del Real Colegio de España con una tesis dirigida por Emilio Costa. Aquel trabajo recibió el premio Vittorio Emanuele Secondo y, tal y como se demostrará, fue el primer trabajo estrictamente científico de la romanística hispana moderna. Otras publicaciones del autor que se incluyen en el presente trabajo permitirán trazar las líneas del pensamiento jurídico, filosófico y –en parte- político de Alfonso Garcia Valdecasas y Garcia Valdecasas.This PhD thesis aims at analyzing both the work and the thought of Alfonso Garcia-Valdecasas Garcia-Valdecasas. The study is in the field of roman law due to the fact that he started his career as a iusromanist, receiving his PhD in Bologna as a collegiate of the Royal Spanish College with a thesis under the supervision of Professor Emilio Costa. That piece received the Vittorio Emanuele II price and, as it will be demonstrated, it represents the first purely scientific work in the modern hispanic roman law science. Other publications by the author included in this very work will allow to outline the traits of the legal, philosophical and -partly- political thought of Alfonso Garcia-Valdecasas Garcia-Valdecasas.Questa tesi di dottorato ha per obbiettivo analizzare l’opera e il pensiero di Alfonso Garcia-Valdecasas y Garcia-Valdecasas.

A Framework for Assessing Public Private Partnerships
No full textThis paper examines in detail Public Private Partnerships (PPPs), discussing their main objectives, implementations and challenges. The possible joint venture between the government and private companies when establishing a PPP is addressed, and an analytical approach to evaluate a PPP measure of success (M) is proposed. Applications of PPP are described, giving special attention to American and European experiences. It concludes by examining future extensions of the analytical Measure of Success of a PPP and what lies ahead for future PPP implementations.NECTARLevinson, David M; Garcia, Reinaldo C.; Carlson, Kathy.

Marina Martín Garcia
No full textIsla Martín Garcia is founded on a rock outcrop in the Río de la Plata which is a natural protected area between Argentina and Uruguay. Due to the extension of the runway at the local airport, wetlands between Isla Timoteo Domínguez and Isla Martín Garcia developed during the last decades. The bay, where the old port was located, was loaded with sediment. After the waters between the two islands sedimented, Isla Hércules is formed and a channel is created. For the location of the marina, three possible options are selected: at the pier, south of Isla Hércules and in the sedimented bay north of Isla Martín Garcia. By using a multi criteria analysis, a marina at the pier is chosen as the best option because of its small dredging area and minor environmental impact. In consultation with the consultative authorities, a marina at the bay is chosen as the elaborated alternative. The recovery of the old situation in which the marina is located in the bay is the main reason for this choice.Implementation of the marina at Isla Martín Garcia involves cooperation between two parties: the government and a second investor. The government is responsible for the island, and a certain amount of liquidity is required to boost tourism on the island. A second party, like a private investor, is introduced for the maintenance and exploration of the project. This cooperation needs to invest 22.9 million dollars; this includes the 16.4 million dollars for the government and 6.5 million dollars for the second party. Without involving an external investor the internal rate of return (IRR) is 1.77% which is very low. When involving a private investor the IRR increases, the external investor receives an IRR of 7.71 % over the entire lifetime of the marina.Hydraulic EngineeringCivil Engineering and Geoscience
