Tractament de dades i geolocalització: proper bus Barcelona

Desenvolupament d'una aplicació per a mòbils Android que permeti conèixer les parades de bus més properes i el temps que falta perquè arribi cada línia de bus, mitjançant la geolocalització de l'usuari, un mapa de parades o un codi QR. Obtenció i tractament de les dades de parades i línies, així com obtenció en temps real de les properes arribades mitjançant "web scraping" (simulació de navegació d'un usuari per extreure dades dels webs) de les pàgines dels operadors.

Experimental investigation of the initial regime in fingering electrodeposition: Dispersion relation and velocity measurements.

Recently a fingering morphology, resembling the hydrodynamic Saffman-Taylor instability, was identified in the quasi-two-dimensional electrodeposition of copper. We present here measurements of the dispersion relation of the growing front. The instability is accompanied by gravity-driven convection rolls at the electrodes, which are examined using particle image velocimetry. While at the anode the theory presented by Chazalviel et al. [J. Electroanal. Chem. 407, 61 (1996)] describes the convection roll, the flow field at the cathode is more complicated because of the growing deposit. In particular, the analysis of the orientation of the velocity vectors reveals some lag of the development of the convection roll compared to the finger envelope.

Planning under partial observability by classical replanning: theory and experiments

Planning with partial observability can be formulated as a non-deterministic search problem in belief space. The problem is harder than classical planning as keeping track of beliefs is harder than keeping track of states, and searching for action policies is harder than searching for action sequences. In this work, we develop a framework for partial observability that avoids these limitations and leads to a planner that scales up to larger problems. For this, the class of problems is restricted to those in which 1) the non-unary clauses representing the uncertainty about the initial situation are nvariant, and 2) variables that are hidden in the initial situation do not appear in the body of conditional effects, which are all assumed to be deterministic. We show that such problems can be translated in linear time into equivalent fully observable non-deterministic planning problems, and that an slight extension of this translation renders the problem solvable by means of classical planners. The whole approach is sound and complete provided that in addition, the state-space is connected. Experiments are also reported.

Fósforo no solo e desenvolvimento de soja influenciados pela adubação fosfatada e cobertura vegetal

A eficiência agronômica dos adubos fosfatados pode ser afetada pelas fontes de fosfato, propriedades do solo, modos de aplicação e espécies vegetais. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito de doses de fósforo e resíduos de plantas de cobertura na dinâmica do fósforo no solo e no desenvolvimento inicial da soja. O experimento foi realizado em casa de vegetação, em vasos com material de um Latossolo Vermelho distrófico. Os tratamentos constituíram-se de três palhadas, milheto, aveia e sorgo-de-guiné, simulando a cobertura do solo, na quantidade de 8 t ha-1 de massa de matéria seca, interagindo com 0, 50, 100 e 150 kg ha-1 de P, aplicados sobre a palhada, na forma de superfosfato simples. As doses de P e os diferentes tipos de palha influenciaram a dinâmica do P no solo. A cobertura com milheto foi mais eficiente na lixiviação do P disponível, enquanto as coberturas com aveia e sorgo-de-guiné foram mais eficientes em lixiviar o P orgânico.

Relació de la flexibilitat i la força en la prevenció de lesions

El futbol és un esport amb una elevada incidència de lesions. L’estudi pretén comprovar si l’augment de la flexibilitat i la força de les extremitats inferiors redueix aquesta incidència. S’ha dut a terme una recerca sobre les parts del sistema musculesqueletic més afectades per les lesions i els mecanismes corresponents en l’esport del futbol. L’equip juvenil “D” de l’A.E.C.Manlleu ha estat la població de l’estudi. S’ha dividit l’equip en un grup control i un grup d’intervenció, en el qual s’ha dut a terme un entrenament específic durant 3 mesos per tal d’augmentar la flexibilitat i la força de les extremitats inferiors i del tronc. A través de la realització del test Sit & Reach i de l’1RM en sentadeta s’ha comprovat si aquest augment ha estat efectiu i la relació amb el nombre de lesions.

La Vil·la romana del Mas d'en Gras (Vila-seca, Tarragonès)

La vil·la romana del Mas d’en Gras és una de les vil·les més interessants de l’ager de Tàrraco, ja que ens ha permès documentar un important conjunt hidràulic d’època romana republicana (segles II-I aC) que podria correspondre ja en aquells moments a una vil·la romana que seria una de les més antigues del país. Els seus banys, datats entre finals del segle I i principis del segle II dC, molt ben conservats, són un magnífic exemple d’aquest tipus d’estructures a casa nostra. Aquest llibre és la monografia de les excavacions d’urgència del 1994. Els autors són Ramon Járrega (investigador de l’ICAC) i Eduard Sánchez (Arqueociència Serveis Culturals, SL).

The psychosocial difficulties in brain disorders that explain short term changes in health outcomes.

BACKGROUND: This study identifies a set of psychosocial difficulties that are associated with short term changes in health outcomes across a heterogeneous set of brain disorders, neurological and psychiatric. METHODS: Longitudinal observational study over approximately 12 weeks with three time points of assessment and 741 patients with depression, bipolar disorders, multiple sclerosis, parkinson's disease, migraine, traumatic brain injury and stroke. The data on disability was collected with the checklist of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health. The selected health outcomes were the Short Form 36 and the World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule. Multilevel models for change were applied controlling for age, gender and disease severity. RESULTS: The psychosocial difficulties that explain the variability and change over time of the selected health outcomes were energy and drive, sleep, and emotional functions, and a broad range of activities and participation domains, such as solving problems, conversation, areas of mobility and self-care, relationships, community life and recreation and leisure. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings are of interest to researchers and clinicians for interventions and health systems planning as they show that in addition to difficulties that are diagnostic criteria of these disorders, there are other difficulties that explain small changes in health outcomes over short periods of time.

Functional remediation for bipolar disorder

Neurocognitive impairment constitutes a core feature of bipolar illness. The main domains affected are verbal memory, attention, and executive functions. Deficits in these areas as well as difficulties to get functional remission seem to be increased associated with illness progression. Several studies have found a strong relationship between neurocognitive impairment and low functioning in bipolar disorder, as previously reported in other illnesses such as schizophrenia. Cognitive remediation strategies, adapted from work conducted with traumatic brain injury patients and applied to patients with schizophrenia, also need to be adapted to individuals with bipolar disorders. Early intervention using functional remediation, involves neurocognitive techniques and training, but also psychoeducation on cognition-related issues and problem-solving within an ecological framework.
