Análisis de usos normativos y su vinculación con áreas en riesgo de inundación. El caso de 23 partidos del litoral bonaerense

El presente trabajo se basa en un análisis de la normativa dispuesta en materia de ordenamiento territorial y usos de suelo de los 23 partidos de la cuenca Parano- Platense que conforman el área de estudio del proyecto en el cual se encuadra el mismo1, considerando el tratamiento específico de áreas afectadas y prevención de las inundaciones. Para ello se ha tenido en cuenta: a) el análisis de la evolución de la regulación del Estado en la ocupación del suelo para el Gran Buenos Aires; b) el registro actualizado de ordenanzas en materia de ordenamiento territorial y Usos del Suelo convalidadas por Poder Ejecutivo (PE) (Nº de ordenanza y el Nº de Decreto del Poder Ejecutivo de convalidación; c) la norma específica (Nº de ordenanza / Nº de decreto del PE) por municipio / por contenido. Los datos para llevar a cabo el estudio de usos de suelo normativos se obtuvieron del nuevo Mapa Interactivo de Ordenamiento Territorial de la Provincia de Buenos Aires, que fue generado por el Ministerio de Gobierno de la Provincia de Buenos Aires, Subsecretaría de Asuntos Municipales. El análisis de la normativa vigente de cada uno de los 23 partidos que abarcan el ámbito de estudio nos permitirá definir estrategias futuras de intervención, las cuales actuarán como instrumento en materia de ordenamiento territorial desde la gestión de cada municipio.

Stress tests of ODP Site 131-808 sediments

Sediments undergoing accretion in trench-forearc systems are subjected to conditions of large lateral thrusting. This stress regime controls the mechanism of faulting as well as the yield and strength properties of the sediment. Understanding them is therefore crucial for the construction of quantitative models of sediment dynamics in convergent margin settings. For this purpose triaxial and oedometer tests were performed on six whole-round core samples recovered from Site 808 from depths between 173 and 705 mbsf. Samples from five depth intervals were subjected to a triaxial test program that was primarily designed to define yield and strength behavior. Test specimens were cut parallel and normal to the core axis. Additional five oedometer tests with similarly prepared specimens were performed on samples from four depth intervals to evaluate the directional state and degree of sediment compaction. Test results show that the degree of sediment compaction is higher than expected from overburden. This overcompaction increases with depth. A well-developed mechanical anisotropy is evident in all samples tested, regardless of their depth and lithology. Values of yield limit, stiffness, and shear strength are up to 40% higher in the horizontal direction compared to the vertical direction. In addition the test data demonstrate that the axis of the volumetric yield loci have rotated into extensional stress field. This verifies that the mechanical state of sediment in the accretionary wedge is controlled by in-situ stress conditions of extensional nature. The coefficients of lateral stress inferred suggest that the extensional stress regime becomes increasingly effective with depth.

Solving complex problems with a bioinspired model

Membrane systems are parallel and bioinspired systems which simulate membranes behavior when processing information. As a part of unconventional computing, P-systems are proven to be effective in solvingcomplexproblems. A software technique is presented here that obtain good results when dealing with such problems. The rules application phase is studied and updated accordingly to obtain the desired results. Certain rules are candidate to be eliminated which can make the model improving in terms of time.
