Studies on the universal parameters and onset of chaos in dissipative systems

It has become clear over the last few years that many deterministic dynamical systems described by simple but nonlinear equations with only a few variables can behave in an irregular or random fashion. This phenomenon, commonly called deterministic chaos, is essentially due to the fact that we cannot deal with infinitely precise numbers. In these systems trajectories emerging from nearby initial conditions diverge exponentially as time evolves)and therefore)any small error in the initial measurement spreads with time considerably, leading to unpredictable and chaotic behaviour The thesis work is mainly centered on the asymptotic behaviour of nonlinear and nonintegrable dissipative dynamical systems. It is found that completely deterministic nonlinear differential equations describing such systems can exhibit random or chaotic behaviour. Theoretical studies on this chaotic behaviour can enhance our understanding of various phenomena such as turbulence, nonlinear electronic circuits, erratic behaviour of heart and brain, fundamental molecular reactions involving DNA, meteorological phenomena, fluctuations in the cost of materials and so on. Chaos is studied mainly under two different approaches - the nature of the onset of chaos and the statistical description of the chaotic state.

Automated synthesis of delay-reduced Reed-Muller universal logic module networks

This paper presents a new approach to implement Reed-Muller Universal Logic Module (RM-ULM) networks with reduced delay and hardware for synthesizing logic functions given in Reed-Muller (RM) form. Replication of single control line RM-ULM is used as the only design unit for defining any logic function. An algorithm is proposed that does exhaustive branching to reduce the number of levels and modules required to implement any logic function in RM form. This approach attains a reduction in delay, and power over other implementations of functions having large number of variables.

Granada y García Lorca : un marco local para una poesía universal.

Se trata de una propuesta didáctica dirigida a los alumnos de sexto de Primaria y que tiene como principales objetivos que los escolares se familiaricen con la obra de García Lorca, se aproximen a su dimensión humana, así como a la cultura de su tiempo. Para hacer un recorrido por la obra de García Lorca se emplea como recurso didáctico una entrevista ficticia que es contestada con opiniones recogidas a través de entrevistas, conferencias y recitales del escritor granadino. Como anexo a la unidad didáctica aparece el periódico del CP El Parque en el que se publica un artículo biográfico sobre el poeta.

Miguel Servet : ¿te atreves?: el humanista aragonés más universal.

Portal de materiales educativos relacionados con Miguel Servet. Su principal objetivo es ofrecer un repositorio de materiales pedagógicos para el profesorado y actividades para el alumnado dedicados al humanista aragonés y acercar así a las aulas el perfil del pensador, que ofrece múltiples facetas. Los contenidos están basados en su vida y obra e incluyen datos como: biografía, artículos relacionados, actividades dirigidas, enlaces, etc. Las actividades están señaladas por colores según el nivel.
