Simple finite field nuclear relaxation method for calculating vibrational contribution to degenerate four-wave mixing

A simple extended finite field nuclear relaxation procedure for calculating vibrational contributions to degenerate four-wave mixing (also known as the intensity-dependent refractive index) is presented. As a by-product one also obtains the static vibrationally averaged linear polarizability, as well as the first and second hyperpolarizability. The methodology is validated by illustrative calculations on the water molecule. Further possible extensions are suggested

Simple finite field method for calculation of static and dynamic vibrational hyperpolarizabilities: curvature contributions

In the static field limit, the vibrational hyperpolarizability consists of two contributions due to: (1) the shift in the equilibrium geometry (known as nuclear relaxation), and (2) the change in the shape of the potential energy surface (known as curvature). Simple finite field methods have previously been developed for evaluating these static field contributions and also for determining the effect of nuclear relaxation on dynamic vibrational hyperpolarizabilities in the infinite frequency approximation. In this paper the finite field approach is extended to include, within the infinite frequency approximation, the effect of curvature on the major dynamic nonlinear optical processes

OpenSearch-geo: the simple standard for geographic web search engines

When publishing information on the web, one expects it to reach all the people that could be interested in. This is mainly achieved with general purpose indexing and search engines like Google which is the most used today. In the particular case of geographic information (GI) domain, exposing content to mainstream search engines is a complex task that needs specific actions. In many occasions it is convenient to provide a web site with a specially tailored search engine. Such is the case for on-line dictionaries (wikipedia, wordreference), stores (amazon, ebay), and generally all those holding thematic databases. Due to proliferation of these engines, A9.com proposed a standard interface called OpenSearch, used by modern web browsers to manage custom search engines. Geographic information can also benefit from the use of specific search engines. We can distinguish between two main approaches in GI retrieval information efforts: Classical OGC standardization on one hand (CSW, WFS filters), which are very complex for the mainstream user, and on the other hand the neogeographer’s approach, usually in the form of specific APIs lacking a common query interface and standard geographic formats. A draft ‘geo’ extension for OpenSearch has been proposed. It adds geographic filtering for queries and recommends a set of simple standard response geographic formats, such as KML, Atom and GeoRSS. This proposal enables standardization while keeping simplicity, thus covering a wide range of use cases, in both OGC and the neogeography paradigms. In this article we will analyze the OpenSearch geo extension in detail and its use cases, demonstrating its applicability to both the SDI and the geoweb. Open source implementations will be presented as well

Cómo un simple blog resucitó unas clases de diseño periodístico

A lo largo del curso pasado varios profesores de la licenciatura de Periodismo en la Universidad del País Vasco pusimos en marcha un Proyecto de Innovación Educativa consistente en coordinar la docencia de la asignatura 'Tecnología de los medios impresos' con otras de curso superior. La idea principal que a la hora de realizar sus ejercicios prácticos, en lugar de seleccionar material gráfico caduco y anónimo a través de internet, los alumnos de tecnología se sintiesen más motivados al utilizar para sus diseños y maquetaciones de página aquellos otros elaborados por sus propios compañeros en otra asignatura durante el cuatrimestre previo. En esta comunicación se recopila la experiencia obtenida en la docencia del diseño periodístico coordinada con otras asignaturas mediante herramientas de interconexión on line

La relació entre el valor N30 de L'SPT i la resistència a la compressió simple

The unconfined compression strength is a geotechnical parameter frequently used to determine the bearing capacity of foundations on clayey soils. Its value can be obtained from the unconfined compression test and, among several in situ tests, the standard penetration test (SPT). However, a comparison between the values of such a strength determined by both tests in CL, CL-ML and CH soils shows that it does not exist an approximate relationship. In any case it is remarkable that values of the test conducted in the laboratory fit between the lower and the higher ones calculated from the standard penetration number. This is very important for those geotechnical reports in which the unconfined compression strength is only based on the SPT. In this way, if the lower value is taken to evaluate the ultimate soilbearing capacity the result will not be very accurate but it will probably be by the side of safety

Development of a simple index to predict benefit and satisfaction from amplification

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the use of non-audiological patient-based variables; amount of bother, importance of improved hearing, and expectations, as reliable predictors of benefit and satisfaction from amplification. Study findings were then used to develop two initial prognostic indices.

Naturaleza jurídica de la negativa pura y simple de los fundamentos de hecho y de derecho de la demanda en el proceso civil

Por años hemos sido testigos por mor de la costumbre y sin detenernos a pensar mucho en ello, los abogados litigantes al contestar una demanda propuesta en contra de nuestros clientes, colocamos como primera -y a veces hasta única- “excepción” a la negativa simple y llana de los fundamentos de hecho y de derecho de la demanda, ya que ha sido corriente considerar que esta aseveración engloba a todas las posibles excepciones o defensas que un caso pueda tener. Se ha considerado entonces y se sigue haciéndolo actualmente, que la negativa simple y llana de los fundamentos de hecho y de derecho de la demanda constituye una “excepción madre” que engloba a todas las demás excepciones. Tanto es así que consignarla en el libelo de contestación a la demanda implica que el juzgador tenga presente que el demandado niega las pretensiones de la demanda y que al actor le corresponde justificarla en todos sus aspectos. En base a este criterio, bastaría con incluir únicamente dicha única “excepción” para que el juzgador pueda revisar todas los posibles argumentos o pruebas que se presenten en un caso concreto con las que se pudiera desvirtuar la demanda, aunque el demandado no los hubiere consignado e incluso supuesto o siquiera advertido. Sin embargo, tendencias procesalistas contemporáneas propugnan precisamente todo lo contrario, esto es, determinan que la naturaleza jurídica de la simple negativa no corresponde a una excepción y, más bien, consiste en un mero enunciado que -para los más extremos- ni siquiera debería existir, ya que no incluye ninguna defensa jurídicamente apropiada. En tal virtud, el hecho de que la litis se haya trabado con la negativa simple de los fundamentos de la demanda no podría obligar al juzgador, bajo pena de que su fallo sea considerado incongruente, a revisar todos los “argumentos” de las posibles defensas. Antes, contra todo anterior presupuesto, se determina que si sólo se hace tal negación, la defensa será estéril. Incluso, el Proyecto de Código de Procedimiento Civil ecuatoriano adopta este criterio, con el que concordamos, y equipara el guardar silencio o consignar excepciones ambiguas o evasivas a un tácito allanamiento a las pretensiones del actor. El presente trabajo logra especificar el alcance procesal que la negativa simple y llana de los fundamentos de hecho y de derecho de la demanda debería tener y, de la consecuencia lógica que su aplicación debería conferir, de modo que los profesionales del derecho conozcamos los parámetros específicos de su enunciado, contestado la demanda con una estrategia defensiva que realmente favorezca al cliente, tendiendo, en último término, a brindar la seguridad jurídica anhelada que busca la uniformidad de los fallos que los jueces pronuncien respecto de su consideración.
