[Es]Las guías de resucitación recomiendan el uso de dispositivos de feedback para mejorar la calidad de las compresiones torácicas. Estos sistemas calculan la profundidad y frecuencia de las compresiones torácicas e informan al rescatador para que, si es necesario, éste corrija su maniobra para ajustarse a los valores recomendados por las guías. La mayoría de estos dispositivos integran la aceleración dos veces para estimar la profundidad de compresión. Sin embargo, cuando la reanimación cardiopulmonar se realiza en vehículos en movimiento, como por ejemplo un tren de larga distancia, los sistemas que utilizan la señal de aceleración pueden verse afectados por las aceleraciones generadas por el propio tren. En este trabajo se estudia la precisión en el cálculo de la profundidad del pecho, a partir de la señal de aceleración, cuando la reanimación cardiopulmonar es realizada en un tren en movimiento. Este análisis permitirá determinar si los sistemas de feedback basados en la aceleración son aptos para ser utilizados en un tren de larga distancia.

E-poltergeist takes over the user’s internet browser, automatically initiating Web searches without their permission. Web-based artwork which explores issues of user control when confronted with complex technological systems, questioning the limits of digital interactive arts as consensual reciprocal systems. e-poltergeist was a major web commission that marked an early stage of research in a larger enquiry by Craighead and Thomson into the relationship between live virtual data, global communications networks and instruction-based art, exploring how such systems can be re-contextualised within gallery environments. e-poltergeist presented the 'viewer' with a singular narrative by using live internet search-engine data that aimed to create a perpetual and virtually unstoppable cycle of search engine results, banner ads and moving windows as an interruption into the normal use of an internet browser. The work also addressed the ‘de-personalisation’ of internet use by sending a series of messages from the live search engine data that seemed to address the user directly: 'Is anyone there?'; 'Can anyone hear me?', 'Please help me!'; 'Nobody cares!' e-poltergeist makes a significant contribution to the taxonomy of new media art by dealing with the way that new media art can re-address notions of existing traditions in art such as appropriation and manipulation, instruction-based art and conceptual art. e-poltergeist was commissioned ($12,000) for 010101: Art in Technological Times, a landmark international exhibition presented by the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, which bought together leading international practitioners working with emergent technologies, including Tatsuo Miyajima, Janet Cardiff, Brian Eno. Peer recognition of the project in the form of reviews include: Curating New Media. Gateshead: Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art.

Este trabajo examina la teoría sobre guerras civiles y resolución de conflictos con el fin de contestar la pregunta: ¿por qué fracasan o progresan los procesos de paz? Se miraron los procesos de paz en Colombia en los últimos cinco años cuando comenzó y fracasó el proceso de paz con las Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia, FARC y comenzaron con las Autodefensas Unidas de Colombia, AUC. La teoría revela la relevancia de factores económicos, políticos, participación externa y militares para explicar por que fallan o prosperan los procesos de paz. Por su parte, el fracaso de las negociaciones con las FARC puede explicarse por razones de estrategia militar, el rol de la violencia durante la negociación y la falta de participación internacional. De otro lado, evitando todos los puntos sensibles de la negociación inicial, las AUC ganaron apoyo de la opinión publica y la confianza del gobierno para iniciar los diálogos. De esta forma, tenemos dos procesos recientes en Colombia para analizar: uno que fallo y el otro que esta progresando. El análisis de estos procesos puede ayudarnos a contestar la pregunta inicial de este trabajo.

The objective of this work was to investigate the factors that inhibit the use of Environmental Techniques in the Gas Station of the city of Natal/RN. For this, a survey with the aid of a questionnaire was used like research instrument. It s used a sample for convenience, not probabilistic. For collection of the data, it was used directly application of the questionnaire to the Managers or Assistant managers of the gas station, in accordance with its availability or presence. The data was collected in all the regions of Natal (North, South, East and West). The population in accordance with the data of the ANP of September 2005 is of 111 ranks and the collected sample was of 86. To carry through the analysis of the data of this research had been used softwares Excel and Statistic version 5.0, for Windows. The analysis of data is divided in two parts; descriptive analysis and analysis of groupings (clusters). The results showed that bigger part of the interviewed ones has between 30 and 39 years of age; they have second grade completed; they had declared to have little between and reasonable knowledge how much to the use of Clean Technology (CT) in gas station; and a small part of the interviewed ones had informed to have much knowledge how much the resolutions of the CONAMA established for the Gas Station. Of the searched ranks, the majority is national(76.7%); the most accurate practice environmental used in the gas station are: it collects selective of oil used or contaminated and ecological tanks - coated with strengthened fibre glass; great part of the interviewed ones (33.8%) informed that never the TL makes planning of referring future action; about of the half of the interviewed ones (84.9%) they had more declared that its employees have of none to a reasonable level of training for deal with problems that compromise the environment; the majority of the ranks (72.1%) functions has for more then six years. It is observed that almost all the interviewed ones (96.5%) evaluate as being important or very important the implantation of CT in Gas Station and the great majority (82.1%) evaluates the difficulty in if implanting these technologies in Gas Station as being easy or very easy. In the analysis of cluster, it was verified existence of two groupings (as much in the variable of the barriers and benefits), being that inside of each clusters exists homogeneity and between clusters exists heterogeneity. In reality, everything is important or very important in the opinion of the interviewed ones. There only exists a small significant difference that separates them in clusters

Apresentamos dois métodos de interpretação de dados de campos potenciais, aplicados à prospecção de hidrocarbonetos. O primeiro emprega dados aeromagnéticos para estimar o limite, no plano horizontal, entre a crosta continental e a crosta oceânica. Este método baseia-se na existência de feições geológicas magnéticas exclusivas da crosta continental, de modo que as estimativas das extremidades destas feições são usadas como estimativas dos limites da crosta continental. Para tanto, o sinal da anomalia aeromagnética na região da plataforma, do talude e da elevação continental é amplificado através do operador de continuação analítica para baixo usando duas implementações: o princípio da camada equivalente e a condição de fronteira de Dirichlet. A maior carga computacional no cálculo do campo continuado para baixo reside na resolução de um sistema de equações lineares de grande porte. Este esforço computacional é minimizado através do processamento por janelas e do emprego do método do gradiente conjugado na resolução do sistema de equações. Como a operação de continuação para baixo é instável, estabilizamos a solução através do funcional estabilizador de primeira ordem de Tikhonov. Testes em dados aeromagnéticos sintéticos contaminados com ruído pseudo-aleatório Gaussiano mostraram a eficiência de ambas as implementações para realçar os finais das feições magnéticas exclusivas da crosta continental, permitindo o delineamento do limite desta com a crosta oceânica. Aplicamos a metodologia em suas duas implementações a dados aeromagnéticos reais de duas regiões da costa brasileira: Foz do Amazonas e Bacia do Jequitinhonha. O segundo método delineia, simultaneamente, a topografia do embasamento de uma bacia sedimentar e a geometria de estruturas salinas contidas no pacote sedimentar. Os modelos interpretativos consistem de um conjunto de prismas bidimensionais verticais justapostos, para o pacote sedimentar e de prismas bidimensionais com seções verticais poligonais para as estruturas salinas. Estabilizamos a solução, incorporando características geométricas do relevo do embasamento e das estruturas salinas compatíveis com o ambiente geológico através dos estabilizadores da suavidade global, suavidade ponderada e da concentração de massa ao longo de direções preferenciais, além de vínculos de desigualdade nos parâmetros. Aplicamos o método a dados gravimétricos sintéticos produzidos por fontes 2D simulando bacias sedimentares intracratônicas e marginais apresentando densidade do pacote sedimentar variando com a profundidade segundo uma lei hiperbólica e abrigando domos e almofadas salinas. Os resultados mostraram que o método apresenta potencial para delinear, simultaneamente, as geometrias tanto de almofadas e domos salinos, como de relevos descontínuos do embasamento. Aplicamos o método, também, a dados reais ao longo de dois perfis gravimétricos sobre as Bacias de Campos e do Jequitinhonha e obtivemos interpretações compatíveis com a geologia da área.

“Difetto di Informazione e danno da prodotto” è un tema di grande interesse ed attualità, in un momento storico in cui si è riacceso il dibattito sulla disciplina della responsabilità per danni da prodotto difettoso. Complice è “il difetto di informazione”, da sempre rimasto ai margini della casistica giurisprudenziale, ma che improvvisamente “ruba la scena” imponendosi all'attenzione della Cassazione (nn. 6007/2007 e 20985/2007) e rivelando nodi interpretativi di forte impatto pratico nelle cause di responsabilità del produttore. Di qui l’esigenza di approfondire la complessa tematica degli information defects, sotto il profilo della nozione di “difetto” e della sua prova, nonché dell’incidenza di eventuali carenze informative sulla responsabilità del produttore. Muovendo dall’analisi della Direttiva e della sua attuazione italiana, il lavoro individua i punti nodali di tale disciplina ed i vari limiti posti – sia a livello interpretativo che applicativo - alla tutela del danneggiato, suscettibili di renderla meno “appetibile” di quanto potrebbe sembrare. Affronta, quindi, criticamente le questioni trattate nelle due sentenze di legittimità del 2007 in ordine sia alla distribuzione tra le parti dell'onere probatorio, sia alla rilevanza delle informazioni fornite dal produttore. Peculiare interrogativo cui si cerca di dare risposta è se, ed in che misura, l’“informazione” consenta al produttore di andare esente da responsabilità. Il lavoro passa ad esplorare i nuovi scenari offerti dalla interazione tra la disciplina della responsabilità del produttore e quella sulla sicurezza generale dei prodotti, la cui coesistenza all’interno del medesimo corpo di norme pone nuovi interrogativi, quali la sussistenza della responsabilità del produttore di un bene “conforme” ed il ruolo dell’informazione nell’ipotesi di prodotti non difettosi e/o “conformi”. La ricerca affronta tali interrogativi con sguardo critico e provocatorio sollevando il dubbio se la “conformità alle norme armonizzate” non rischi di diventare una “nuova” clausola di esonero della responsabilità del produttore.

Extending phenological records into the past is essential for the understanding of past ecological change and evaluating the effects of climate change on ecosystems. A growing body of historical phenological information is now available for Europe, North America, and Asia. In East Asia, long-term phenological series are still relatively scarce. This study extracted plant phenological observations from old diaries in the period 1834–1962. A spring phenology index (SPI) for the modern period (1963–2009) was defined as the mean flowering time of three shrubs (first flowering of Amygdalus davidiana and Cercis chinensis, 50% of full flowering of Paeonia suffruticosa) according to the data availability. Applying calibrated transfer functions from the modern period to the historical data, we reconstructed a continuous SPI time series across eastern China from 1834 to 2009. In the recent 30 years, the SPI is 2.1–6.3 days earlier than during any other consecutive 30 year period before 1970. A moving linear trend analysis shows that the advancing trend of SPI over the past three decades reaches upward of 4.1 d/decade, which exceeds all previously observed trends in the past 30 year period. In addition, the SPI series correlates significantly with spring (February to April) temperatures in the study area, with an increase in spring temperature of 1°C inducing an earlier SPI by 3.1 days. These shifts of SPI provide important information regarding regional vegetation-climate relationships, and they are helpful to assess long term of climate change impacts on biophysical systems and biodiversity.

Ice cores from outside the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets are difficult to date because of seasonal melting and multiple sources (terrestrial, marine, biogenic and anthropogenic) of sulfates deposited onto the ice. Here we present a method of volcanic sulfate extraction that relies on fitting sulfate profiles to other ion species measured along the cores in moving windows in log space. We verify the method with a well dated section of the Belukha ice core from central Eurasia. There are excellent matches to volcanoes in the preindustrial, and clear extraction of volcanic peaks in the post-1940 period when a simple method based on calcium as a proxy for terrestrial sulfate fails due to anthropogenic sulfate deposition. We then attempt to use the same statistical scheme to locate volcanic sulfate horizons within three ice cores from Svalbard and a core from Mount Everest. Volcanic sulfate is <5% of the sulfate budget in every core, and differences in eruption signals extracted reflect the large differences in environment between western, northern and central regions of Svalbard. The Lomonosovfonna and Vestfonna cores span about the last 1000 years, with good extraction of volcanic signals, while Holtedahlfonna which extends to about AD1700 appears to lack a clear record. The Mount Everest core allows clean volcanic signal extraction and the core extends back to about AD700, slightly older than a previous flow model has suggested. The method may thus be used to extract historical volcanic records from a more diverse geographical range than hitherto.

Inspired by Kenneth Burke's dramatism, this thesis examined the viability of social movements rhetorical theory in its application to literature by focusing on the 19th century abolitionist movement in the United States and moving from the analysis of public speeches to fictional works. ^ Chapter one applied the rhetorical analysis of social movements to noteworthy speeches by William Lloyd Garrison and Francis Maria W. Stewart. Chapter two examined social movements rhetoric in The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass. Chapter three considered Uncle Tom's Cabin and determined whether social movements rhetorical theory could illuminate this persuasive work of fiction. ^ Dramatistically speaking, each of these works attempted to persuade the reader or auditor to join the abolitionist cause through symbolic action in their rhetoric. This thesis concluded that the social movements approach derived from Burkean dramatism is indeed powerful in its application to literature as it unpacks the rhetoric of abolition. ^
