Wage rigidities in Colombia: Measurement, causes, and policy implications
This paper evaluates the extent of wage rigidities in Colombia over a period, 2002–2014, in which the fall in unemployment was relatively slow with respect to sustained economic growth. Following Holden and Wulfsberg (2009), ...
Dofetilide effect on human atrial action potential under normal and atrial fibrillation conditions. In silico study
Atrial fibrillation is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia. Dofetilide is an antiarrhythmic drug for the treatment of chronic AF that specifically blocks the rapid component of the delayed rectifier potassium ...
Technical and environmental assessment of an alternative binder for low traffic roads with LCA methodology
Currently, low traffic roads in most countries are made up of unpaved roads; therefore, to increase the bearing capacity and durability of soils, using stabilizers such as lime and portland cement is required. In this ...
A novel ubiquitous system to monitor medicinal cold chains in transportation
Cold chain is a term related to the equipment and processes used to keep the correct temperature, in which the products, such as food, vaccines, blood, tissues, amongst others, should be stable to be preserved. Any change ...
Theoretical study of phosphate adsorption from wastewater using Al-(hydr)oxide
The overabundance of phosphorus in water causes eutrophication of aquatic environments. As a consequence, developing an adsorbent and understanding the adsorption process to remove phosphate is vital for the prevention of ...
Manager characteristics and top management team in antioquia's manufacturing SMES [Características gerenciales y del equipo de alta gerencia en las PYMES antioqueñas del macrosector de manufacturas]
This paper presents a description of the main features of managers and the Top Management Team (TMT) of small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) belonging to the manufacturing sector that develop activities of internationalization ...
Redox Potentials from Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics and Explicit Entropy Calculations: Application to Transition Metals in Aqueous Solution
We present a complete methodology to consistently estimate redox potentials strictly from first-principles, without any experimental input. The methodology is based on (i) ab initio molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, ...
Donor impurity states in semiconductor zincblende nitride quantum systems as a source of nonlinear optical response
The optical absorption and the optical rectification coefficients associated to hydrogenic impurity interstate transitions in zincblende GaN-based nanostructures of the quantum wire type are investigated. The system is ...
