Discussion of "Design Footing Area with Biaxial Bending" by Ramon Jarquio and Victor Jarquio (October, 1983)

The authors present a very interesting criterion for choosing a rectangular foundation.The writers should like to point out that the obtention of minimum area can be reduced to the problem of finding the minimum of x*+y*, subjected to the condition x*.y*=k2 whose solution is evidently x*=y*=k

Entrevista a Enrique Alarcón Álvarez

Enrique Alarcón Álvarez responde a diversas preguntas sobre su vocación técnica y sus comienzos en el ejercicio de su profesión, su percepción de la Real Academia de Ingeniería y su papel en la misma, así como otros aspectos relativos a los Colegios Profesionales, el Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior y la situación de la ingeniería en España. Ya que en los momentos en que se realiza la entrevista es el Presidente de la Real Academia de Ingeniería muchas preguntas giran respecto a esta institución: las iniciativas surgidas en la década de los 90 que culminaron con su creación, los fines fundamentales a partir de los cuáles se crea y se estructura, sus relaciones con el ámbito docente, colegial, empresarial y con otras instituciones similares a nivel internacional.

Intelligent Therapy Assistant (ITA) for cognitive rehabilitation in patients with Acquired Brain Injury

This paper presents the design, development and first evaluation of an algorithm, named Intelligent Therapy Assistant (ITA), which automatically selects, configures and schedules rehabilitation tasks for patients with cognitive impairments after an episode of Acquired Brain Injury. The ITA is integrated in "Guttmann, Neuro Personal Trainer" (GNPT), a cognitive tele-rehabilitation platform that provides neuropsychological services.

Combining Text and Graphics for Interactive Exploration of Behavior Datasets

Modern sensor technologies and simulators applied to large and complex dynamic systems (such as road traffic networks, sets of river channels, etc.) produce large amounts of behavior data that are difficult for users to interpret and analyze. Software tools that generate presentations combining text and graphics can help users understand this data. In this paper we describe the results of our research on automatic multimedia presentation generation (including text, graphics, maps, images, etc.) for interactive exploration of behavior datasets. We designed a novel user interface that combines automatically generated text and graphical resources. We describe the general knowledge-based design of our presentation generation tool. We also present applications that we developed to validate the method, and a comparison with related work.

Improving brain injury cognitive rehabilitation by personalized telerehabilitation services: Guttmann neuropersonal trainer

Cognitive rehabilitation aims to remediate or alleviate the cognitive deficits appearing after an episode of acquired brain injury (ABI). The purpose of this work is to describe the telerehabilitation platform called Guttmann Neuropersonal Trainer (GNPT) which provides new strategies for cognitive rehabilitation, improving efficiency and access to treatments, and to increase knowledge generation from the process. A cognitive rehabilitation process has been modeled to design and develop the system, which allows neuropsychologists to configure and schedule rehabilitation sessions, consisting of set of personalized computerized cognitive exercises grounded on neuroscience and plasticity principles. It provides remote continuous monitoring of patient's performance, by an asynchronous communication strategy. An automatic knowledge extraction method has been used to implement a decision support system, improving treatment customization. GNPT has been implemented in 27 rehabilitation centers and in 83 patients' homes, facilitating the access to the treatment. In total, 1660 patients have been treated. Usability and cost analysis methodologies have been applied to measure the efficiency in real clinical environments. The usability evaluation reveals a system usability score higher than 70 for all target users. The cost efficiency study results show a relation of 1-20 compared to face-to-face rehabilitation. GNPT enables brain-damaged patients to continue and further extend rehabilitation beyond the hospital, improving the efficiency of the rehabilitation process. It allows customized therapeutic plans, providing information to further development of clinical practice guidelines.
