Implications of a constitutional procedural codification in Colombia [Implicaciones de una codificación procesal constitucional para Colombia]
This paper analyses constitutional procedural law in Colombia. The existing debate regarding the codification of constitutional procedural law, along with its arguments for and against, is explained. It also studies the ... -
Homologation of accounting policies for consolidation of financial statements of the public sector [Homologación de políticas contables para consolidación de estados financieros del sector público]
In the process of preparing the consolidated financial statements for the Public Sector, the approval of accounting policies between the controlling entity and its subsidiaries is required. Therefore, the objective of this ... -
Ground-coupled natural circulating devices (Thermosiphons): A review of modeling, experimental and development studies
Compared to conventional ground heat exchangers that require a separate pump or other mechanical devices to circulate the heat transfer fluid, ground coupled thermosiphons or naturally circulating ground heat exchangers ... -
Gutiérrez Girardot: The turn to Marxisms [Rafael gutiérrez girardot: El giro hacia los marxismos]
The article focuses on eight essays about Marxisms, some of which are yet unpublished, written by Rafael Gutiérrez Girardot between 1970 and 1990. The contents of these materials are related to his critical reception of ... -
Genetic Algorithms for the Picker Routing Problem in Multi-block Warehouses
This article presents a genetic algorithm (GA) to solve the picker routing problem in multiple-block warehouses in order to minimize the traveled distance. The GA uses survival, crossover, immigration, and mutation operators, ... -
Gamification strategies for the purpose of improving software processes in project management [Estrategias de gamificación con fines de mejora de procesos software en la gestión de proyectos]
In the context of Software Engineering, where there are difficulties related to the software project management, gamification is constituted as a support tool for the improvement of its processes. In this way, through ... -
Gamification for improving software project management processes: A systematic literature review
This systematic literature review aims to (a) understand the current state of gamification as a strategy for improving processes associated with software project management and (b) define future gamification in the context ... -
Flexural behavior of ungrouted post-tensioned concrete masonry beams with unbonded bars
Precast and post-tensioned systems increase the efficiency of masonry beams in terms of labor and time of construction. This study is aimed at evaluating the flexural behavior of ungrouted post-tensioned concrete masonry ... -
First principles calculations of opto-electronic properties of doped blue phosphorene nanoribbons
Using first principles calculation the opto-electronic properties of blue phosphorene nanoribbons doped with carbon, silicon and sulfur atoms are studied. Zigzag and armchair edges configurations and several ribbon widths ... -
Fibrillatory conduction in a simulated two-dimensional model of human atrial tissue: effect of the interaction of two ectopic foci
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common tachyarrhythmia. It has been demonstrated that extra-stimuli could act as triggers for AF. In many patients it is possible that multiple ectopic foci co-exist, and their interactions ... -
Evaluation of sustainable development in the sub-regions of Antioquia (Colombia) using multi-criteria composite indices: A tool for prioritizing public investment at the subnational level
This article comparatively evaluates sustainable development levels in the nine sub-regions of the department of Antioquia (Colombia), using composite indices. Given the complexity and the diversity of sustainable development ... -
Evaluation of 3B42V7 and IMERG daily-precipitation products for a very high-precipitation region in northwestern South America
The availability of water is critical in determining the distribution of species by favoring or limiting their development, and leading to the formation of different ecosystems. Thus, analyzing the trends and fluctuations ... -
Evaluation of fly ash reactivity from incineration of hazardous waste in lime pastes
The annual global production of fly ash is estimated at about 780 million tons per year and has been used successfully in the cement industry for more than 50 years, mainly as a mineral additive in Portland cement and also ... -
Entropy mapping approach for functional reentry detection in atrial fibrillation: An in-silico study
Catheter ablation of critical electrical propagation sites is a promising tool for reducing the recurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF). The spatial identification of the arrhythmogenic mechanisms sustaining AF requires the ... -
Effect of the concentration ratio on energetic and exergetic performance of concentrating solar collectors with integrated transparent insulation materials
The effect of the concentration ratio on the performance of parabolic trough and central receiver collectors with integrated transparent insulation materials (TIMs) is analyzed in this work. A model based on optical, energy, ... -
Emotional states detection approaches based on physiological signals for healthcare applications: A review
Mood disorders, anxiety, depression, and stress affect people’s quality of life and increase the vulnerability to diseases and infections. Depression, e.g., can carry undesirable consequences such as death. Hence, emotional ... -
Electronic properties and optical response of triangular and hexagonal MoS2 quantum dots. A DFT approach
The energy states of triangular and hexagonal MoS2 quantum dots are studies with the use of density functional theory, varying the dot size. The system edges are assumed to be passivated with sulfur-hydrogen atoms. In each ... -
Effect of Heat Treatment on Tribological Properties of Ni-B Coatings on Low Carbon Steel: Wear Maps and Wear Mechanisms
Among the alternatives for using low-carbon steel in parts with heavy wear, as gears and bearing surfaces, Ni-B electroless coatings deposited on these steels are considered due to their wear resistance. Wear maps, elaborated ... -
Dry-co-grinding of doped TiO2 with nitrogen, silicon or selenium for enhanced photocatalytic activity under UV/visible and visible light irradiation for environmental applications
TiO2 doped with nitrogen (N), silicon (Si), or selenium (Se) (N-TiO2, Si-TiO2, and Se-TiO2) were obtained by the integrated sol-gel and solvothermal method with short time of crystallization and low temperature. The ... -
Does a life cycle assessment remain valid after 20 years? Scenario analysis with a bus stop study
Purpose: The goal of this article is to find out if an old Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) study remains valid or not after a period of time. To answer this we re-perform an LCA of a bus stop in the city of Barcelona that was ...
