El Nacionalismo y las representaciones del pasado argentino en la construcción de la identidad política peronista. Una aproximación desde la provincia de Corrientes (1943 - 1949)

Resumen La irrupcion del peronismo provoco una ruptura en la historia politica argentina pero, su surgimiento no fue una creacion desde la nada sino que se nutrio de las tradiciones politicas e ideologicas que lo precedieron. El nacionalismo constituyo una de esas vertientes, que tuvo especial incidencia en los anos de formacion del nuevo movimiento. A traves del nacionalismo, el primer peronismo no solo incorporo simpatizantes y lideres sino que, al mismo tiempo, contribuyo en la construccion de un discurso politico e ideologico alternativo al liberalismo que incluia una nueva representacion del pasado y la inauguracion de nuevos “itinerarios de memoria”. En este trabajo se busca reconstruir ese proceso, identificar los actores intervinientes, sus discursos, las voces opositoras y los alcances de las medidas adoptadas con el objeto de evaluar tanto su impacto en la sociedad y politica local como en la configuracion ideologica del peronismo como fenomeno nacional. Palabras claves: Historia y memoria, Historia politica, peronismo, nacionalismo, Corrientes, Argentina Abstract The emergence of the peronism caused a rupture in the political history of Argentina. Its rise was not built from scratch, it was drew on political and ideological traditions that preceded it. Nationalism was one of these strands, which had a particular impact on the formative years of the new movement. Through nationalism, not only the first Peronist incorporated supporters and leaders, but at the same time, it helped build a political speech and ideological alternative to liberalism. This included a reenactment of the past and the opening of new “memory itineraries”. This paper aims to reconstruct the phenomenon of the peronism, identifying the actors involved, their speeches, oppositional voices and the scope of measures taken. In sum, this paper aims to evaluate the local peronism, both its impact on the society and politics in Corrientes, and in shaping the peronism at the national scale. Keywords: history and memory, Political history, Peronism, Nationalism, Corrientes, Argentina.
RNA Structural Elements of Hepatitis C Virus Controlling Viral RNA Translation and the Implications for Viral Pathogenesis

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) genome multiplication requires the concerted action of the viral RNA, host factors and viral proteins. Recent studies have provided information about the requirement of specific viral RNA motifs that play an active role in the viral life cycle. RNA regulatory motifs controlling translation and replication of the viral RNA are mostly found at the 5' and 3' untranslated regions (UTRs). In particular, viral protein synthesis is under the control of the internal ribosome entry site (IRES) element, a complex RNA structure located at the 5'UTR that recruits the ribosomal subunits to the initiator codon. Accordingly, interfering with this RNA structural motif causes the abrogation of the viral cycle. In addition, RNA translation initiation is modulated by cellular factors, including miRNAs and RNA-binding proteins. Interestingly, a RNA structural motif located at the 3'end controls viral replication and establishes long-range RNA-RNA interactions with the 5'UTR, generating functional bridges between both ends on the viral genome. In this article, we review recent advances on virus-host interaction and translation control modulating viral gene expression in infected cells.
Raman Spectroscopy of Optically Trapped Single Biological Micro-Particles

The combination of optical trapping with Raman spectroscopy provides a powerful method for the study, characterization, and identification of biological micro-particles. In essence, optical trapping helps to overcome the limitation imposed by the relative inefficiency of the Raman scattering process. This allows Raman spectroscopy to be applied to individual biological particles in air and in liquid, providing the potential for particle identification with high specificity, longitudinal studies of changes in particle composition, and characterization of the heterogeneity of individual particles in a population. In this review, we introduce the techniques used to integrate Raman spectroscopy with optical trapping in order to study individual biological particles in liquid and air. We then provide an overview of some of the most promising applications of this technique, highlighting the unique types of measurements enabled by the combination of Raman spectroscopy with optical trapping. Finally, we present a brief discussion of future research directions in the field.
Classical theory of homogeneous nucleation in superheated liquids and its experimental verification

This work summarizes the cycle of investigations devoted to determination of the character of superheated liquid boiling-up in a glass capillary at the boundary of the attainable superheating. The brief history of studies is followed by a brief introduction into the theory of homogeneous nucleation. The result of the targeted experiments determining stationarity of a random process of a supercritical embryo generation is considered. From the experiments it may be concluded that the process is unsteady. Based on a large selection of life spans of superheated liquids, the authors have made parametric and nonparametric evaluations of the functions of distribution and dependence of boiling-up frequency on time. The comparison of the obtained results with exponential distribution shows significant differences that also prove the nonstationarity of the studied random process. Special experiments and calculations for evaluation of homogeneity of the superheated liquid boilingup at the boundary of attainable superheating are considered. It is shown that in the experiments with glass capillary, the boiling-up occurs on the wall. As the most convincing evidence of heterogeneity of the superheated liquid boiling-up in a glass capillary the authors provide the results of high-speed video filming in a silylated and clean capillaries.
A donor–acceptor pair for the real time study of vibrational energy transfer in proteins

Vibrational energy transfer (VET) is believed to play an important role in protein function. Theoretical studies predict highly directional, anisotropic VET in proteins. Distinct energy transfer pathways which connect distant functional sites in proteins have been proposed by simulations, indicating a function in allosteric communication. Experimental evidence for such pathways, however, is lacking. In small molecules, ultrafast vibrational pump-probe spectroscopy has been used to investigate VET between different parts of a molecule in great detail. Here, we address the requirements for extending this powerful approach to proteins and present a protein-compatible donor-acceptor pair for the real time investigation of VET. This VET pair consists of two non-native amino acids, β-(1-azulenyl)-alanine and azidohomoalanine, which can be positioned site-specifically and are found to be very well suited for spectroscopic studies of VET. Important for the study of proteins, co-translational incorporation of each of the amino acids has been demonstrated before using mutually independent approaches of protein engineering. We investigated the performance of the proposed VET pair in a model peptide which is designed to contain additional characteristic vibrational modes frequently used in infrared spectroscopy of proteins. Despite a larger inter-residue distance, we find that our VET acceptor generates a major signal that is easily observed compared to the other vibrational modes in the congested parts of the spectrum. We find sufficient signal size at concentrations compatible with proteins and over distances that will allow tracking of energy flow along predicted transfer pathways.

Computation of compound rotorcraft lateral rotor noise

The main objective of the CONCERTO project is to provide the topic leader (Airbus Helicopters) of the Clean Sky 2 IADP Fast Rotorcraft with a new computational tool enabling the noise modelling and prediction of lateral rotors installed on the future LifeRCraft demonstrator. This tool, enabling both fast prediction and high fidelity approaches, will include 3 modules: aerodynamics, free field acoustic and scattering effects. All three will be, implemented in a chaining process, based on a seamless workflow and software environment that will be created during the project.  While aerodynamics module relies on PUMA code (Free Wake) as Fast aerodynamic solver and TAU code (CFD) as High fidelity solver, free field acoustic solver will use the KIM code (FW-H). KIM code will also be implemented for fast scattered acoustic prediction, while BEMUSE code (BEM) will be implemented for high fidelity scattered prediction. The overall tool will be validated and applied to a subset of the LifeRCraft flight domain.  The project will be implemented through 6 WPs: WP1 Workflow definition and implementation; WP2 Aerodynamics module; WP3 Free-field acoustic module; WP4 Scattered field acoustic module; WP5 Validation; WP6 Project Management, dissemination and exploitation.  CONCERTO consortium, ONERA and DLR, will deliver and install the necessary tools at the topic leader location including documentation, support and possible updates during the 3 years of the project. With a total budget of about € 635,000, the project will go beyond the state of the art (investigating unsteady flight cases, capturing quadripole noise sources, solving efficiently the multi-frequency problem of combined main rotor and lateral rotors, etc.), and will fully address user needs, contribute to the maturation and future commercialization of a new aircraft vehicle satisfying new mobility roles, thus contributing to the competitiveness of the European aeronautics sector.
End-to-end text-dependent speaker verification

In this paper we present a data-driven, integrated approach to speaker verification, which maps a test utterance and a few reference utterances directly to a single score for verification and jointly optimizes the system's components using the same evaluation protocol and metric as at test time. Such an approach will result in simple and efficient systems, requiring little domain-specific knowledge and making few model assumptions. We implement the idea by formulating the problem as a single neural network architecture, including the estimation of a speaker model on only a few utterances, and evaluate it on our internal Ok Google benchmark for text-dependent speaker verification. The proposed approach appears to be very effective for big data applications Like ours that require highly accurate, easy-to-maintain systems with a small footprint.
Fibonacci driven novel test generation strategy for constrained testing

The complex software systems consist of a number of input parameters that interact with each other. As the number of input parameters in the system increases, the trade off that the system tester faces is the thoroughness of test cases coverage, versus limited resources of time and expense that are available. An approach to resolving this trade off is to constrain the set of available test cases such that each pair-wise combination of input parameters is covered. This goal gives a well-defined level of test coverage, with a reduced number of test cases. But the problem becomes severe if the domains of input parameters are large and therefore the number of generated test cases is huge. To deal with the problem a novel constrain strategy has been introduced based on the Pairwise testing for selecting a set of test cases in the software systems having the input parameters with large domains. The strategy uses the Fibonacci series driven testcase generation approach to generate the set of intelligent testcases which are as effective as conventional testcases but in total are less in number. In the end paper also presents the experimental results which prove the effectiveness of proposed strategy in terms of number of testcases generated and issues uncovered by these testcases.

Energy and environmentally efficient cooling system for maritime use

The maritime industry has in the recent years changed their strategy. Before the global financial crisis, the shipowners had only the temporal aspect in mind. From A to B as quickly as possible was most important, whatever the cost. However, this has changed significantly. Rising oil prices and a much greater focus on the environmental impacts, have led to higher operating costs. The industry is now searching for every opportunity to reduce these operating costs. Today, traditional compressor driven A/C units is used for cooling the ships. The electrical energy that drives the cooling systems, is produced by combustion of fossil fuels. COOL4SEA’s new cooling technology changes all of this. Onboard ships of all types and cargos, the need of cooling is always present. In order to generate cooling, energy is required. This energy is supplied by combustion of oil. However, large amounts of unused energy in the form of heat, exist on every ship. This heat is extremely difficult to utilize. COOL4SEA has developed a cooling technology, that can harness the energy from this heat and use it for A/C. This saves the oil that otherwise should have been used — with environmental and economic benefits as a result.
Speed-measuring and statistical research of vehicles on two intercity highways in Jiaxing

Taking two sections of highway within the borders of Jiaxing from G15w Changzhou-Taizhou Highway and G60 Shanghai-Kunming Highway respectively as subjects, this article researches into the traffic flow on double-lane and multi-lane by field shooting, speed data collecting and statistical analysis. It is discovered that the traffic flow of intercity highway with higher proportion of freight vehicle is different from that of urban expressway. There is obvious difference between the velocity distribution of passenger car and freight vehicle, and the general vehicle velocity distribution reveals the feature of double peak. Based on these discoveries, it is proposed in this article that a five-parameter probability density function which can depict the double peak feature of vehicle velocity distribution. All the parameters have clear physical meaning and can be adjusted according to different position, height and variance of peak value in concrete problems. According to the result of fitting and optimizing three measured samples, distance between two peak values of multi-lane section is larger than that of double-lane section, while the concentrative degree of speed data(especially speed of freight vehicle) in weekend is higher than that of working day.
Teneurin interactions in the neuronal synapse

Synapses, connections between neurons, are critical to the formation of neural circuits. Functional neural circuits control intricate processes such as learning and memory, whereas failure in neural circuitry formation can lead to developmental disorders including autism.

At the molecular level, synapse formation is enabled by cell-adhesion molecules that interact across the synapse.  At present, many individual proteins have been identified that contribute to synaptic cell adhesion, but it is unclear how these individual proteins team up in macro-molecular complexes.  I will focus on synaptic cell-adhesion complexes containing Teneurins, a protein family whose essential role in synapse formation has only recently been characterized.

To understand how Teneurin complexes promote synapse formation, I aim to determine the molecular mechanisms that underlie Teneurin1 and Teneurin2 dimerization, including complex formation with their recently identified binding partner Latrophilin.  To achieve this goal, I will determine the structure of Teneurin protein complexes using single particle electron cryo-microscopy.  In parallel, I will study the function of Teneurin complexes in synapse formation using primary hippocampal neurons. Dissecting the molecular mechanisms that underlie Teneurin functions might ultimately advance small molecule therapeutics to treat developmental diseases, including autism.

The work I propose here, draws upon my background in the field of developmental neurobiology, but complements that background with new knowledge and skill sets in structural biology to set me off conducting my own line of research as an independent scientist.

Industrial decision-making on complex production technologies supported by simulation-based engineering

Simulation-based engineering (SBE), in which traditional R&D, design and production technologies are complemented with computer simulations, has revolutionized the industrial sector. Computer simulations are critical for control of manufacturing processes, non-destructive-testing and decision-making at production phases, and shorten the lead-time of design and development processes, thus reducing both costs and time-to-market. 

The overarching objective of ProTechTion is to harness the full potential of multi-disciplinary SBE technology in industrial environments concerned with complex production processes. To this purpose, ProTechTion will form a multi-disciplinary research and education network that unites relevant disciplines and stakeholders to (i) develop new computational paradigms, (ii) train a generation of ESRs in state-of-the-art SBE technologies and cross-disciplinary skills, and (iii) bridge the knowledge transfer gap in multi-disciplinary SBE.

The main objective of ProTechTion translates into the following research and training objectives:
• To train and empower a generation of ESRs in developing, together with the industrial researchers, innovative solutions for pressing Industrial Problems (IPs). These solutions will be based on industry-driven tailor-made computational simulation tools.
• To position European industry in the vanguard of SBE, and reinforce and consolidate Europe’s worldwide leadership.
• To contribute with original research and innovations in SBE in order to solve multidisciplinary problems with interdisciplinary tools arising from the proposed IPs for fast decision making.
• To cultivate the entrepreneurial spirit of the ESRs and integrate transverse research skills with demonstrators (codes).
Evolutionary dissection of the neck musculoskeletal system in dinosaurs

In contrast to the clawed forelimbs of their dinosaurian ancestors, the highly specialized forelimbs of birds are exclusively adapted for flight which constrains their functional versatility. It is assumed that consequently the avian neck became the functional equivalent to an arm and great divergence is evident in number, form and function of the cervical vertebrae. Owing to methodological advances such as imaging techniques and computer technology, we only recently started deciphering the complex biomechanical adaptations of the neck in birds and the results serve as basis for bioinspired design including an arm for robots. The classic avian body plan was pieced together gradually over tens of millions of years of evolution rather than in one burst of innovation. Traits such as feathers, the furcula, and wings first evolved in the dinosaurian ancestors of birds, whereas other traits such as the pygostyle and a keeled sternum evolved in more derived birds during the Cretaceous. This raises the question of when and how has the highly versatile avian neck evolved? The EDDI team will address this issue by investigating the evolutionary mechanisms responsible for the diversification of the neck in archosaurs, the group of fossil and extinct vertebrates that includes dinosaurs, birds, and crocodilians. To do so, homologies of the skeletal and muscular system of the neck will be established using developmental and morphological data. This will serve as basis for the investigation of changes in the musculoskeletal system of the neck across phylogenetically diverse living and fossil taxa. Reconstructing these patterns among dinosaurs will provide new insights into how evolution drove major morphofunctional changes that underpinned their spectacular evolutionary success, in particular that of their avian descendants. This research will define a new paradigm for inferring patterns of the interconnected evolution of bone and muscle from the fossil record.
