Análisis de la incidencia del White Paper, como herramienta de Política Exterior China, en las relaciones económicas y comerciales Sino-colombianas. Periodo 2008–2012

El propósito de este trabajo es analizar cuál ha sido la incidencia del White Paper, como herramienta de política exterior china, en las relaciones económicas y comerciales sino-colombianas entre los años 2008 y 2012. La mayoría del análisis se enfoca en los intercambios comerciales reflejados en la balanza comercial de ambos países y la incidencia que ha tenido el White Paper para la estabilización de una relación de acuerdo a los principios de su política exterior. Este trabajo busca describir los orígenes y la evolución de la relación económica y comercial bilateral y otros aspectos como los sectores que dinamizan tal relación de acuerdo a los intereses de China. Este trabajo describe las razones por las que, aunque la relación se ha fortalecido, hecho evidenciado en el incremento del flujo comercial, ésta sigue siendo desequilibrada y de dependencia.

La constitución y la protección del patrimonio eclesiástico en la legislación de Constancio II (337-361)

A partir de Constantino I, cuando el cristianismo fue reconocido y apoyado por los emperadores romanos, se dotó a la Iglesia de terrenos destinados a su mantenimiento. En poco tiempo, este patrimonio fundiario se acrecentó notablemente gracias a las donaciones de privados y a que, en la medida en que la situación lo permitió, los obispos se apropiaron de las dotaciones de los templos paganos de sus comunidades. Por otro lado, este aumento patrimonial suscitó problemas legales relacionados con los impuestos que debían pagarse por estas tierras.

Investigation of Rapid Thermal Analysis Procedures for Prediction of the Service Life of PCCP Carbonate Coarse Aggregate, HR-337, 1993

The major objective of this research project was to use thermal analysis techniques in conjunction with x-ray analysis methods to identify and explain chemical reactions that promote aggregate related deterioration in portland cement concrete. Twenty-two different carbonate aggregate samples were subjected to a chemical testing scheme that included: • bulk chemistry (major, minor and selected trace elements) • bulk mineralogy (minor phases concentrated by acid extraction) • solid-solution in the major carbonate phases • crystallite size determinations for the major carbonate phases • a salt treatment study to evaluate the impact of deicer salts Test results from these different studies were then compared to information that had been obtained using thermogravimetric analysis techniques. Since many of the limestones and dolomites that were used in the study had extensive field service records it was possible to correlate many of the variables with service life. The results of this study have indicated that thermogravimetric analysis can play an important role in categorizing carbonate aggregates. In fact, with modern automated thermal analysis systems it should be possible to utilize such methods on a quality control basis. Strong correlations were found between several of the variables that were monitored in this study. In fact, several of the variables exhibited significant correlations to concrete service life. When the full data set was utilized (n = 18), the significant correlations to service life can be summarized as follows ( a = 5% level): • Correlation coefficient, r, = -0.73 for premature TG loss versus service life. • Correlation coefficient, r, = 0.74 for relative crystallite size versus service life. • Correlation coefficient, r, = 0.53 for ASTM C666 durability factor versus service life. • Correlation coefficient, r, = -0.52 for acid-insoluble residue versus service life. Separation of the carbonate aggregates into their mineralogical categories (i.e., calcites and dolomites) tended to increase the correlation coefficients for some specific variables (r sometimes approached 0.90); however, the reliability of such correlations was questionable because of the small number of samples that were present in this study.

Investigation of Rapid Thermal Analysis Procedures for Prediction of the Service Life of PCCP Carbonate Coarse Aggregate: Phase I, Progress Report, HR-337, 1992

The major objective of this research project is to utilize thermal analysis techniques in conjunction with x-ray analysis methods to identify and explain chemical reactions that promote aggregate related deterioration in Portland cement concrete. The first year of this project has been spent obtaining and analyzing limestone and dolomite samples that exhibit a wide range of field service performance. Most of the samples chosen for the study also had laboratory durability test information (ASTM C 666, method B) that was readily available. Preliminary test results indicate that a strong relationship exists between the average crystallite size of the limestone (calcite) specimens and their apparent decomposition temperatures as measured by thermogravimetric analysis. Also, premature weight loss in the thermogravimetric analysis tests appeared to be related to the apparent decomposition temperature of the various calcite test specimens.
