Spatially-localized time dependent solutions including turbulence and their interactions in 2D Kolmogorov flow
In 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
Characteristics of overlap region in high-Reynolds number turbulent channel flow
Direct 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
La 'circunstancia' de 'Herederos y Pretendientes
In June 2010, the Ortega y Gasset Foundation hosted a Conference about the “Spanish Philosophical Transition” in order to debate the book of Francisco Vázquez, La filosofía española. Herederos y Pretendientes. Una lectura sociológica (1963-1990), recently published. This paper is the author’s response to criticism raised in the Conference and to published reviews received by this book. First, the author summarized the argument of Herederos y pretendientes. Secondly he responds and takes into account the most important objections against the book’s hypothesis and methodology. Finally the author evaluates the favorable judgments received by the book and suggests the limits of the historian’s task.Fundación Ortega y Gasset-Marañó
Author self-citation in orthodontics is associated with author origin and gender.
BACKGROUND
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
In 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)
Semana Santa y su simbología. 5 Segunda época Año 3 (2019) enero-junio. Rutas de Campo. Trabajo de Campo: Iztapalapa: memoria y cultura
Los dos grandes momentos en torno a los cuales gira la cosmovisión católica, el nacimiento de Jesús y su muerte, han dado lugar, el primero, a la celebración de la Navidad, y el segundo, a la conmemoración de Semana Santa. En este texto nos ocuparemos de los años finales de la vida de Jesús, pues es precisamente Semana Santa la celebración litúrgica con que se recuerda su Pasión y su muerte. Recordemos que, en este contexto, el término “pasión” hace referencia al sufrimiento y a la serie de tormentos a que fue sometido Jesús poco antes de su muerte en la cruz, que todos conocemos.Altamirano, Ignacio Manuel (1974).

The Viral Author
La idea moderna de la "figura de autor" debe mucho, de manera irreversible, a los dos ensayos de Roland Barthes y Michel Foucault, "La muerte del autor" y "¿Qué es un autor?". Ellos proporcionan un marco útil para una investigación sobre la aparente ausencia del autor en el mundo del web, nos permite preguntarnos si la autoría es congruente con los nuevos medios de comunicación, y si algún modelo puede ser establecido por su presencia. Se argumenta que el autor es de hecho presente, pero con su presencia y modalidades de actividad desplazadas a la figura del usuario.The modern idea of the author-figure owes much, irreversibly, to the two essays of Roland Barthes and Michel Foucault, “The Death of the Author” and “What is an Author?”. They provide a useful framework for an investigation into the apparent absence of the author-figure in the online world, allow us to ask whether authorship is congruent with online media, and whether some model may be established for his presence. It is argued that the author is indeed present, but with his presence and modes of activities displaced, perhaps counter-intuitively, to the figure of the user
Skin friction factor and mean velocity profile measured in high-reynolds-number turbulent pipe flow
A friction factor in a fully developed pipe flow is measured very accurately over wide range Reynolds number from 103 to 107 at the high Reynolds number facility in AIST,NMIJ. Also a velocity profile is measured by using a LDV up to 106. From the comparison between a velocity profile and the friction factor, we found that a log-law profile is well observed and Kármán constant is estimated to be 0.385. Based on the measurements, we present a new functional form of the friction factor which is consistent with mean velocity profile
Miguel Fisac: De arte y parte
An excerpt from this conversation, held twenty-five years ago, was published on the occasion of the centenary of the interviewee\u27s birth in issue number 4 of the journal Boletín Acadómico (BAC). Now the rest of the conversation sees the light, which addresses issues of notable interest: the particular way of approaching his first professional steps as an architect in post-war Spain, Fisac\u27s very personal vision regarding the architects of the Modern Movement with particular attention to work of Le Corbusier, or his position regarding turn-of-the-century architecture when the interview took place. To finish, the author from La Mancha makes a critical approach to the sacred architecture of the 20th century - of which Fisac himself was the main protagonist, at least in our country - and an interesting approach to the plastic artists with whom he had the opportunity to work, from Capuz or Stolz to Susana Polac and Jorge Oteiza.Un extracto de esta conversación, celebrada hace ahora veinticinco años, fue publicado con motivo del centenario del nacimiento del entrevistado en la entrega número 4 de la revista Boletín Académico (BAC). Ahora ve la luz el resto de la conversación que aborda cuestiones de notable interés: la particular forma de abordar sus primeros pasos profesionales como arquitecto en la España de la posguerra, la personalísima visión de Fisac respecto a los arquitectos del Movimiento Moderno con particular atención al trabajo de Le Corbusier, o su toma de postura respecto a la arquitectura finisecular cuando la entrevista tuvo lugar. Para terminar el autor manchego hace una aproximación crítica a la arquitectura sacra del siglo XX —de la que el propio Fisac fue protagonista principal, como mínimo en nuestro país— y una interesante aproximación a los artistas plásticos con los que tuvo la ocasión de trabajar, desde Capuz o Stolz a Susana Polac y Jorge Oteiza
