Published: October 2023

Bajo un Título que conjuga los de obras señeras de la crítica y la historiografía literarias de la segunda mitad del siglo pasado, los estudios aquí reunidos revisan algunas nociones hoy al uso en los abordajes de la narrativa moderna del subcontinente americano. La cuestión medular de la forma artística y de su historicidad propia, soslayada por la crítica actual, es considerada desde perspectivas históricas a la par de interdisciplinarias, y el examen crítico propuesto parte de los modos en que los autores y las obras considerados procuran, organizan y comparten sus saberes.
La mirada caníbal. Testimonios del Nuevo Mundo (1492-1512)
Authors: Reding Blase Sofía
Published: October 2023

En este libro se estudian los primeros testimonios sobre el Caribe y cómo se construyó en el Viejo y luego en el Nuevo Mundo la inquietante representación del caníbal. No obstante que ninguno de los exploradores presenció actos de antropofagia, sino que se hicieron eco de rumores, dieron continuidad a un imaginario que robusteció la idea sobre la hostilidad y rusticidad del americano. Los efectos de la mirada europea fueron desastrosos para el continente; por eso es ineludible analizar cómo se construye discursivamente al Otro desde una mirada colonizadora, y cuáles son las lecciones que se desprenden de esa experiencia para la filosofía y la antropología latinoamericanas.
Indirect Determination of the Internal Diameter of Glass Conical Volumetric Instruments
Authors: Purata Sifuentes Omar Jair
Published: October 2023

Purpose: To determine the values of the internal diameter in conical-shaped glass volumetric instruments using height measurements, without needing to measure the wall thickness of the volumetric container, which will allow calculating the contribution to the uncertainty of volume measurement due to the adjustment of the meniscus.
Methodological design: The proposed method approximates volume by a series of truncated cones bounded by instrument graduation lines. The series of truncated cones thus defined is subject to comply with a geometric restriction. Then, for the graduation lines of the volumetric instrument that did not adhere to the constraint, a power regression model allows approximation of the value of the internal diameter.
Results: The proposed approach could be used as an alternative method to determine the internal diameter of glass conical volumetric instruments in cases where using a vernier caliper or optical comparator is not an option, either because the geometry of the conical instrument does not allow it or because higher cost instruments are not available.
Research limitations: Only two types of conical volumetric instruments were tested: an Imhoff cone and a centrifuge tube, with scopes of 1 L and 100 mL, respectively, from only two commercial brands of laboratory glassware. The volume of the tip of the instrument was modeled up to the first graduation mark, always as a semi-ellipsoid of revolution.
Findings: Comparing the direct measurement of the internal diameter of the volumetric instruments with an optical comparator, there is an average relative error below 10 %, with a maximum value below 20 % for the two different conical glass instruments studied.

Rabies is a viral, lethal, and zoonotic disease with worldwide distribution, primarily transmitted through bites from infected dogs and bats. The Biosafety Laboratory (LSE-LANASEVE) of the Animal Health Service of Costa Rica (SENASA) serves as the national reference laboratory for diagnosing rabies in humans and animals. Since regional laboratories lack the equipment for the direct fluorescent antibody test (FAT), we evaluated the rapid immunochromatographic diagnostic test (RIDT) from BioNote, employing FAT as a reference, to improve rabies diagnosis. We analyzed 193 brain tissue samples between 2014 and 2019. Out of these, 174 came from species that RIDT has been validated for: bovines (162), dogs (10), and raccoons (2). The rest were from unvalidated species, including horses (7), humans (1), and others. Among the 174 validated samples, 26 bovine samples were positive for both RIDT and FAT. Reviewing all 193 samples, 28 were positive and 165 negative using both methods. Two horse samples presented inconsistencies, being positive on FAT but negative on RIDT; these were subsequently verified as false negatives by RT-PCR. RIDT exhibited a sensitivity of 94 % (CI95, 83.9-102.3), specificity of 100 %, positive predictive value (PPV) of 100 %, and negative predictive value (NPV) of 99 % (CI95, 97.1-100.5). RIDT has demonstrated reliability in quickly diagnosing rabies for validated species. We advise its application in SENASA's regional laboratories for those particular species. If there's uncertainty, samples should be sent to LSE-LANASEVE for FAT or RT-PCR confirmation.
Measurement of Non-Linear Optical Absorption of PVC/TiO2 Nanocomposite via Z-Scan Technique for Optical Limiting
Authors: Jalil Muhammad Arif Bin
Published: October 2023

Abstract: This research focuses on PVC/TiO2 nanocomposites in the form of thin films in order to expand our understanding of photonics technology. For fabrication of the thin films, the casting method was used with nanocomposites composite were developed by mixing TiO2 nanoparticles with Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) as the polymer matrix. The absorbance parameters were determined using spectral analysis, and the linear absorption coefficient was computed. A single beam Z-scan technique was used to evaluate the nonlinear refractive index and nonlinear absorption coefficient via a CW diode pumped solid state (DPSS) laser (Coherent Verdi-V5, 532 nm) was employed as the excitation laser at 50mW. Peak absorption was detected at 280 nm with increasing absorption observed as the proportion of TiO2 nanoparticles increased. The nonlinear absorption coefficient was found at (0.5342, 1.3585,1.5999, and 0.0253) 1ݔ 10−5 cm/W. All of the sample morphology resulting poor structure which then affect the NLO absorption of the materials. However, with the positive value of NLO absorption, they appear to be promising candidates for optical limiting applications.
A ATUAÇÃO DA PSICOLOGIA NO CONTEXTO HOSPITALAR EM TEMPOS DE PANDEMIA: possibilidades e limitações
Authors: Broering Camilla Volpato , Maria Caroline Santa
Published: October 2023

Since the beginning of the current coronavirus outbreak (SARS-CoV-2), which caused Covid-19, there has been concern over a disease that has spread rapidly in several regions of the world. The hospital reality changed with the pandemic: visits were interrupted, or started to occur virtually. Information is transmitted by telephone or online meetings, and physical contact and even farewell rituals have been rendered unfeasible, which asks the psychologist for emergency assistance to family members. It is known that psychology is gaining more space in the hospital, however, it is clear that these professionals have been finding challenges to exercise their function. Faced with a situation like the pandemic of the new coronavirus, psychologists did not have time to be trained for such a situation, which led them to seek quick answers, precautions in handling care and assistance to suspected cases. The direct exposure to the possibility of contagion, the little evidence about the best behaviors to be adopted, brought the objective of this article to systematize the practice of hospital psychology in times of pandemic with its possibilities and limitations, since the constant contact with suffering, pain and death can cause these professionals constant suffering.
Genetic, virological, infectious, and pharmacological risk factors for CD4+ T-cell regeneration failure in HIV-infected subjects receiving ART
Authors: Saidakova E. V.
Published: October 2023

In 10 to 40% of HIV-infected patients being adherent to highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), viral load suppression is not accompanied by a significant increase in the number of CD4+ T-lymphocytes. This phenomenon, known as immunological non-response to treatment, is associated with a high risk of developing AIDS-associated and non-AIDS-associated diseases, as well as premature death. The bases of immunological non-response to HAART are poorly understood, while information on the risk factors for its development is scattered.

The aim of the present review is to organize data on non-immune-system risk factors for the development of immunological nonresponse to HAART.

Materials and methods. Electronic searching using PubMed, Science Direct, and Scopus were conducted.

Results and discussion. The database search delivered information on genetic, virological, infectious, and pharmacological risk factors for the development of immunological non-response to HAART. Each factor contribution might be substantially different. Still, none of them can be considered a trigger mechanism for this phenomenon.

Conclusion. Immunological non-response to HAART is a polyetiological condition. Apparently, this phenomenon is based on normally imperceptible immune system features or defects, which manifest during the CD4+ T-cell regeneration.

Published: October 2023

For two years, we experienced traumatic moments due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and several psycho-emotional symptoms, such as anxiety, stress and depression, intensified during this period, especially due to the social isolation established by the higher authorities for control and disease prevention. However, seeking forms of intervention to help in the decline of these cases was a major challenge for the Unified Health System (SUS), and the Integrative and Complementary Practices in Health (PICS) were an excellent health promotion and education strategy to alleviate these symptoms. Therefore, this article aimed to describe all the operational planning for the elaboration of educational videos on the adapted mindfulness meditation as an educational practice to improve the quality of life and health of community leaders (CL), partners of the Plataforma project of Knowledge (PPS), and their peers, during the period of the new coronavirus pandemic.

A globalizáció és a technológiai fejlődés következtében a digitális infrastruktúra amellett, hogy jelentős hatással van a szervezetek teljesítőképességére, növeli azok sebezhetőségét. A kutatás célja annak feltárása, hogy az információbiztonsággal kapcsolatos kockázatok hogyan értelmezhetők, illetve mérsékelhetők, kezelhetők a tranzakciós költség elméletet meghatározó opportunizmus, illetve a tranzakciós elmélet keretrendszerében értelmezhető stressz, valamint technostressz megközelítést alkalmazva, továbbá ezek hatásainak egyfajta csökkentésére irányuló bizalom szerepét elemezve. A tanulmány rámutat, hogy az IKT-eszközök (információs és kommunikációs technológia) használata, illetve azok folyamatos fejlődése a munkavállalók részéről nem csak végeláthatatlan tanulást igényel, hanem ebből fakadóan nyomást helyez az egyénre, állandó versenyhelyzetet teremtve, melynek következtében kontraproduktivitás jelenik meg, azaz csökken a biztonságtudatosságuk. Ebből következően nemcsak az IKT-eszközök alkalmazása, hanem az információbiztonsági intézkedések és folyamatok tervezése és implementálása során is elengedhetetlen az információs aszimmetria és az opportunista viselkedés csökkentése, melynek révén várhatóan növekszik a bizalom és a szervezeti reziliencia, teljesítmény.

Among-individual behavioural variation in the ornamental red cherry shrimp, Neocaridina heteropoda
Authors: Rickward Rosie , Santostefano Francesca , Wilson Alastair
Published: October 2023

Personality variation, defined as among-individual differences in
behaviour that are repeatable across time and context, is widely
reported across animal taxa. From an evolutionary perspective,
characterising the amount and structure of this variation is useful
since differences among individuals are the raw material for adaptive
behavioural evolution. However, behavioural variation among-individuals
also has implications for more applied areas of evolution and ecology –
from invasion biology, to ecotoxicology, and selective breeding in
captive systems. Here, we investigate the structure of personality
variation in the red cherry shrimp, Neocaridina heteropoda, a popular
ornamental species that is readily kept and bred under lab conditions
and is emerging as a decapod crustacean model across these fields, but
for which basic biological, ecological, and behavioural data is limited.
Using two assays and a repeated measures approach, we quantify
behaviours putatively indicative of shy-bold variation and test for
sexual dimorphism and/or size-dependent behaviours (as predicted by some
state-dependent models of personality). We find moderate to high
behavioural repeatabilities across traits. Although strong
individual-level correlations across behaviours are consistent with a
major personality axis underlying these observed traits, the
multivariate structure of personality variation does not fully match a
priori expectations of a shy-bold axis. This may reflect our ecological
naivety with respect to what really constitutes bolder, more risk prone,
behaviour in this species. We find no evidence for sexual dimorphism and
only weak support size-dependent behaviour. Our study contributes to the
growing literature describing behavioural variation in aquatic
invertebrates. Furthermore, it lays a foundation for further studies
harnessing the potential of this emerging model system. In particular,
this existing behavioural variation could be functionally linked to
life-history traits, invasive success, and serve as target of artificial
selection or bioassays. It thus holds significant promise in applied
research across ecotoxicology, aquaculture, and invasion biology.

Epidemiology and prognostic factors of bloodstream infections among adolescents and young adults with acute lymphoblastic leukemia: an 11-years of retrospective cohort study
Authors: xue longlong , Tang Yishu , Wang Liwen , Xu Cong , Cheng Qian , Li Xin
Published: October 2023

Adolescent and young adults (AYAs) belong to a unique category of
patients diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who have
better outcomes when treated with pediatric-inspired regimens.
Bloodstream infections (BSIs) is a leading cause of treatment-related
mortality in ALL patients. However, the epidemiology and prognostic
characteristics of BSIs in ALL patients with AYAs remain unclear. In
this study, we analyzed the epidemiology and prognostic factors of AYAs
and compared the similarities and differences between younger and older
adult patients with BSIs. We analyzed the clinical data of three
comprehensive hospitals in Hunan Province, China, from January 2010 to
August 2021. In this study, the clinical characteristics and pathogen
distributions of AYAs patients were similar to those of adult ALL
patients. Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase(ESBL)-producing bacteria were
more commonly found in AYAs than in children (32.8% vs. 16.4%,
P=0.09). Regarding prognostic factors, the length of hospitalization
(>14 days) and renal inadequacy (creatinine≥177μmoI/L) were
risk factors for 30-day mortality in AYAs with BSIs. In our study, AYAs
patients with BSIs showed clinical characteristics and pathogen
distributions similar to those of adult patients, but were quite
different from those of children.
Observer-Based Adaptive Neural Networks Optimal Control for Spacecraft Proximity Maneuver with State Constraints
Authors: Meng Zhongjie , Li Qinwen
Published: October 2023

This paper proposes an adaptive neural network (NN) optimal control
approach for autonomous relative motion control of non-cooperative
spacecraft in proximity. The proposed method aims to minimize fuel
consumption under various challenges including model uncertainty, state
constraints, external disturbances, and input saturation. To account for
uncertain parameters of non-cooperative target and external
disturbances, we start by designing a NN disturbance observer.
Subsequently, a novel optimal control index function is presented. An
adaptive NN based on the actor-critic (A-C) framework and backstepping
theory is then utilized to approximate the solution of
Hamilton-Jacobi–Bellman (HJB) equation and obtain an optimal control
law. The Lyapunov framework is leveraged to establish the stability of
the closed-loop control system. Finally, numerical simulations are
conducted to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed
control scheme in comparison with an existing approach.

Published: October 2023

Almond (Prunus dulcis Miller [D. A. Webb] or Prunus amygdalus L.) is
a major tree nut species and consumed worldwide. Morocco maintains a
long-standing presence of domesticated almonds, hosting a secondary
genetic diversity hotspot that demands safeguarding as an important
resource for future almond breeding. However, detailed information on
genetic diversity is lacking, particularly for the traditional (Beldi)
almonds propagated for centuries from seeds, representing the original
cultivar pool. Here, we assessed the pomological diversity of local
Beldi almond ecotypes to detect elite trees based on nuts and kernels
characteristics. A high degree of variability was obtained. A
significant correlation was found among some studied variables.
Principal Component Analysis (PCA) for quantitative traits showed that
two components explained 78.91% of the total variation and revealed
that traits related to fruits contribute to a large proportion of the
observed variability. Then, a comprehensive genetic study of 98 almond
accession including 93 of the Beldi ecotype and five non-Moroccan
cultivars by analyzing 12 Simple Sequence Repeats (SSRs) markers with
high Polymorphism Information Content (PIC). We used population
structure and Principal Coordinates Analyses (PCoA) to analyze the
molecular variance and described the genetic diversity of the identified
subpopulations. We identified five subpopulations with little genetic
differentiation between the populations, but two subpopulations have
high genetic diversity. These subpopulations represent promising genetic
pools that necessitate full protection. They are a significant resource
for developing novel almond varieties that offer high yields in adverse
conditions, fostering profitable Moroccan breeding programs for
sustainable almond agriculture.

Biodiversity drives stability in communities, allowing it to withstand
environmental fluctuations without changes in aggregate properties like
total abundance or biomass. We investigated biodiversity’s influence on
two crucial population-level mechanisms governing abundance stability in
mesopredatory coral reef fishes: ‘community asynchrony,’ where species
populations fluctuate inversely over time, and ‘dominant stability,’
where highly abundant species with significant community contributions
display minimal population fluctuations. Analyzing data from 83 reef
fish communities across the Indian and Pacific Oceans over a decade, we
found that community asynchrony, rather than dominant stability,
primarily predicts community stability. Functional diversity, not
taxonomic diversity, regulates this stability, emphasizing the role of
niche differences in stabilizing communities. We highlight that
community attributes that promote asynchronous population fluctuations,
enhancing response diversity and tempering strong trophic interactions
are vital for stabilizing mesopredatory reef fish communities in the
face of global change.

Objective: To explore the relationship between tumor budding and
clinical pathological characteristics and prognosis of cervical cancer;
Methods: By searching Pubmed, Embase, Cochren, CNKI and CBM databases,
the research studies on the relationship between tumor budding and
prognosis or clinic-pathological characteristics of cervical cancer were
included. The quality of researches included was evaluated according the
Castle Ottawa Scale (NOS) and statistically analyzed by Stata 12.0.
Result: A total of 10 studies were included, including 11 cohorts.
Including 2017 patients, the NOS score of these studies is more than 6
points. Tumor budding is related to age and tumor size of cervical
cancer. In part of pathological characteristics, squamous cell
carcinoma, higher stage, lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis, high
WHO grade, deep interstitial invasion, Lymphatic vessel vascular space
invasion, nerve invasion and para uterine invasion are more likely to
occur tumor budding, occurrence of tumor sprouting in C-type cervical
adenocarcinoma is higher than that in A/B type; In univariate analysis,
there was a significant correlation between cervical cancer tumor
sprouting and disease-free survival in patients (RR=6.511,P=0.000), in
multivariate analysis, there was also a significant correlation between
those (HR=3.358,P=0.001); Subgroup analysis of univariate analysis
showed that Asian (RR=1.879, P=0.000), sample size ≤ 300 (RR=1.875,
P=0.000), inclusion of squamous cell carcinoma (RR=1.884, P=0.000),
staging criteria (FIGO and TNM), and tumor staging (I-II and mixed
staging) all had an impact on DFS.Conclusion: The clinical application
of tumor budding as a prognostic factor of cervical cancer can be
considered.

Published: October 2023

Since the invention of cloud computing technologies, the term
“cloud-native” has been used. In recent years, research into
cloud-native technology has grown along with the development of cloud
computing technology. One of the most popular software architectures of
our time, cloud-native architecture integrates cloud-native technology
to conventional distributed architectures and aligns with the
characteristics of modern cloud usage. This article examines the history
of cloud-native technologies, warehouse information systems, and
pertinent literature. It suggests a three-tier design for a Cloud-Native
Warehouse Management and Control Platform (CWMCP), combining the traits
of automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS). The study examines
the functioning of the data layer, service layer, and application layer
as well as their logical relationships and discusses each layer’s
specific design, deployment, and features in detail. Based on
operational requirements of AS/RS warehouses, we developed a business
analysis framework integrating algorithms, and created a prototype
cloud-native warehouse management system (CWMS). We then analyzed the
platform’s advanced architecture and verified its effectiveness. CWMCP
is in high demand and a promising trend for enabling digital and
intelligent transformation of AS/RS systems.

Published: October 2023

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a microvascular complication of type 2 diabetes and the leading cause of blindness globally. Although diabetes-related eye exams are widely recognized as an effective method for early detection of DR, which can help to prevent eventual vision loss, adherence to screening exams in the United States is suboptimal. This article describes a quality improvement project to increase DR screening rates and increase knowledge and awareness of DR in adults with type 2 diabetes in a primary care setting using mobile DR screening units. This project addressed gaps of care and demonstrated that primary care settings can increase access to DR screening through a patient-centered process and thereby help to prevent irreversible outcomes of DR and improve quality of life.

Dette belyses gjennom en internasjonal spørreundersøkelse til IT-direktører i store selskaper i Asia, Nord-Amerika, Europa, Sverige og Norge. Dataene viser at det er store forskjeller mellom bedrifter i hver region, men også at skandinaviske bedrifter i gjennomsnitt er på etterskudd. I artikkelen bruker vi forskjellene i gjennomsnittstall som basis for en generell diskusjon om forskjellen på digitale mestre og sinker. Norske bedrifter er i varierende grad truffet av dette, men alle bedrifter som ikke er digitale mestre, vil ha nytte av drøftingen i artikkelen.
Desarrollo de un proceso de capacitación por aplicación mediante el aprendizaje mixto para mipymes en México
Authors: Benítez Guadarrama Juan Pedro
Published: October 2023

En la actualidad el uso de aplicaciones móviles y simuladores juegan un papel muy importante en el proceso educativo, pues permiten desarrollar estrategias, habilidades y actitudes en las personas que lo utilizan y dan oportunidad de mejora para el proceso de capacitación. Por ello, el objetivo de esta investigación fue desarrollar un proceso de capacitación para mipymes que implemente el uso de aplicaciones móviles en entornos virtuales para fortalecer su estructura administrativa y financiera. Para el estudio se aplicó la metodología DCIERC, y se realizó un estudio cualitativo, descriptivo, de corte transversal. Los resultados muestran que el proceso de capacitación y el uso de la tecnología móvil con escenarios virtuales preconfigurados pueden mejorar el desempeño de las mipymes durante sus operaciones reales.

Se infiere, además, que la metodología DCIERC durante la capacitación es un recurso viable, ya que se observa que al contener la teoría y legalidad sobre las actividades o funciones preconfiguradas desarrolladas antes y durante la práctica real fortalecen el aprendizaje y contribuyen al proceso efectivo de capacitación. Esto se debe a que el emprendedor puede aplicar sus conocimientos empíricos o previos relacionándolos con lo aprendido y lo transpone en un conocimiento efectivo. De esta manera evita incurrir en errores, pues puede evaluar el desempeño de los emprendedores para conocer las discrepancias teóricas y prácticas en el momento de la aplicación de sus conocimientos en las actividades. Además, al hacer una retroalimentación del análisis de la evaluación en su integración promueve la mejora continua y los objetivos empresariales.
Consideraciones sobre la trascendencia y la muerte siguiendo el pensamiento de Edith Stein
Authors: Lambert Ortiz César Andrés
Published: October 2023

Recibido: 05/04/2018Aceptado: 08/08/2018El artículo señala que la muerte es un tópico que nos atañe a todos. Pero, en los tiempos actuales, la comprensión de la muerte ha cambiado. Se tiende a negar su realidad, al punto que algunos autores sostienen que ella no existe. Por su parte, Edith Stein propone una comprensión del alma humana como una entidad que, pese a estar unida por naturaleza al cuerpo, puede continuar existiendo separada de él. Esto se debe, según Stein, a la fuerza espiritual que fluye al alma y la nutre para vivir sin unión con el cuerpo. Esta doctrina filosófica hace posible una comprensión de la muerte no como un fin total, sino como un paso hacia una forma de existencia más alta, a saber, la existencia puramente espiritual. A su vez, esta visión permite entrar en diálogo con la interpretación actual de la muerte.
La naturaleza en el pensamiento de los antiguos: La hermenéutica del homo mensura y perspectivas ambientales de lo inmensurable
Authors: Baquedano Jer Sandra
Published: October 2023

La naturaleza en el universo antiguo se manifiesta a través de distintas razones epocales, entre ellas, mediante una particular hermenéutica del homo mensura. Desde un pensar rememorante acerca de la naturaleza en el mundo helénico, se sondean los orígenes e implicancias del enfoque interpretativo del homo mensura, cuyo curso desembocará en la posteridad en una visión instrumental de la naturaleza que oculta su ser. Por contraste, se mostrará de qué modo la apertura a una dimensión ambiental de la inconmensurabilidad posibilita comprender con mayor profundidad la naturaleza, más allá de las razones suficientes con las que pueda medírsela o calcularla.
Realidad y Representación en Habermas y Rorty
Authors: Galán Vélez Francisco Vicente
Published: October 2023

El artículo analiza la postura que Habermas llamó realismo sin representacionismo, cuyo fundamento es el pragmatismo kantiano y el naturalismo débil. Habermas otorga a la acción cotidiana el papel que Kant asigna a las condiciones trascendentales. Asume el giro lingüístico, pero evita una interpretación contextualista de la razón como Rorty, para quien el anti-representacionalismo es necesariamente anti-realista. Para Habermas nuestros aprendizajes continúan el proceso evolutivo, y suponen una realidad independiente y común a todas las formas de vida, aunque no debemos identificar esta realidad con ninguna conceptualización de ella. El artículo cuestiona si este realismo ofrece una diferencia significativa con el pragmatismo de Rorty.
Teleology in Living Beings: A Phenomenological Approach to Intentionality and Intentional Actions
Authors: Villamil Lozano Andrés Felipe , Garavito María Clara , Villamil Lozano Harol David
Published: October 2023

This paper makes a phenomenological distinction between constitutive intentional movements and intentional actions. A phenomenological understanding of embodied and situated relations between living beings and their worlds shows that intentional movements do not imply an implicit or explicit experienced “what for” that organizes and directs what an organism does. We question the immanent teleology of autopoietic enactivism and the agentive semiotics theory. This discussion allows us to separate the idea of intentionality from objectives, goals, and agendas. This yields a different way of understanding the behavior of living beings based on the phenomenological notions of intentional body, intentional movement, animation, and the time-consciousness structure.
Miguel de Unamuno y la novela como filosofía
Authors: Ángeles Cerón Francisco de Jesús
Published: October 2023

Después de alejarse del positivismo que practicó en su juventud, Unamuno encontró en la ficción narrativa el medio para formular y exponer su propio estilo de pensamiento. Este artículo examina y precisa en qué momentos de su obra literaria explora algunos de los tópicos que serán centrales en su filosofía de la madurez (interioridad, individualidad, contradicción). Analizamos su evolución como escritor de ficción desde sus Cuadernos de juventud y hasta sus últimos textos publicados. Mostramos cómo se concentra en la escritura de novelas rompiendo modelos estéticos del realismo naturalista y acercándose al paradigma modernista. Y exponemos cómo la utilización de recursos literarios propios del modernismo es lo que permite a Unamuno profundizar en los problemas epistémicos que más le preocupan: el conocimiento de sí mismo, el encuentro con la realidad exterior y con la posibilidad de exponer lingüísticamente nuestro particular modo de experimentar la contradicción entre la individualidad y el mundo de los otros. Finalmente, explicitamos el concepto de novela que formula Unamuno a partir de su práctica escritural y revisamos ejemplos que permiten identificar por qué la estética de su escritura de ficción es un claro intento por hacer de la novela (nivola) una forma de conocimiento.
Futuro y transhumanismo: la culminación del proyecto moderno de control racional o el fin de la educación

Published: October 2023

La creencia absoluta en el progreso del ser humano por medio de la ciencia y la tecnología no solamente afecta a la manera en que concebimos la naturaleza del hombre, sino que también influye en la construcción del futuro que deseamos para las nuevas generaciones. En ese sentido, una crítica al proyecto moderno ayuda a dar luz a las posibles consecuencias que una visión cientificista y tecnocrática de la educación podría provocar en los jóvenes. Sobre todo, revisando las premisas principales del transhumanismo es posible dilucidar el criterio capacitista e instrumental que busca imponerse como el paradigma último de la educación. Por ello, es importante destacar cómo los transhumanistas proponen un modelo educativo que, más que promover el crecimiento cultural e integral de los niños, proclama un reduccionismo antropológico, el cual exige únicamente un desenvolvimiento funcional y exitista de los miembros de las sociedades contemporáneas. Por tanto, el objetivo de este artículo consiste, por un lado, en denunciar el rechazo de los transhumanistas a la educación, a partir de una defensa de capacidades instrumentales, y, por otro lado, destacar la relevancia que una educación humanista provee al enriquecer el valor de la naturaleza humana. Este texto radica, entonces, en una revaloración de la contemplación de la belleza y la búsqueda de la verdad como finalidad última del hombre.
“La realidad habla por sí sola”. Cuando exhibir fuertes convicciones no es propiamente una virtud

El artículo introduce al análisis de las creencias conspirativas y considera la literatura más relevante sobre el tema. El objetivo del escrito es fenomenológico: entender las creencias conspirativas colocándolas en un género más amplio, las creencias conceptuales generales (o, simplemente, creencias generales), cuyas características esenciales son: grandes temas, falacias lógico-conceptuales, pseudo-racionalidad, mala fe y tendencia monológica. Las creencias generales son funcionales a una comunicación sesgada y tendencialmente deshonesta, la misma que las historias conspirativas comparten con extremismos políticos, fundamentalismos religiosos y otros sistemas de creencias excéntricos, cuya finalidad es eminentemente práctica y auto-representativa (no teorética). El artículo se opone a la mera estigmatización del fenómeno y trata más bien de comprenderlo observando una región más amplia y turbia de la experiencia humana, de la que todos somos responsables de alguna manera.

When maging is used to detect the crushing effect of rock particles, the selected characterization parameters are important factors affecting the results. The image-based detection system is composed of three parts: an image acquisition system, a storage platform, and a digital image processing system.The influence of loading mode and feeding particle size on rock crushing degree and rock morphology characteristics after crushing are analyzed respectively; The crushing ratio and sand-forming ratio of limestone, limestone and granite under shear and extrusion loads are analyzed. The experimental results show that the crushing ratio and sand formation rate play a key role in the crushing of rocks composed of different materials under shear compression loading. The effect analysis of crushing under the feed particle size of 9.5 mm to 16mm shows that there is a great correlation between edges and corners, roundness and overall contour. It provides a basis for the follow-up research on intelligent mine construction and equipment optimization, and is worthy of further popularization and application.

Abstract. Application of Augmented reality Based on Minimax-Alpha Beta Pruning Algorithm on Smart Board Games. Augmented reality technology is growing very rapidly making game production more innovative and attractive. The implementation of this technology also has the potential for traditional board games which are starting to be replaced by computer-based digital games. The method used in the digital board is Minimax which is zero-sum based where one point of the opponent's victory will reduce the player's one point. This method underlies the way of thinking to get critical steps in several types of games being played. Minimax will result in a lower probability of defeat and increase the probability of winning. The results obtained are that Minimax which was developed with Alpha Beta Pruning to make opponents think like humans so that artificial intelligence in it is suitable to be applied. The test results also give a 63% win for the AI (Artificial Intelligence) used, so the game becomes challenging.Keywords: Game, augmented reality, Minimax, Board

Published: October 2023

Aplikasi Fiber Reinforcement Polimer (FRP) sebagai tulangan menjadi salah satu inovasi baru untuk sistem beton bertulang. FRP atau serat berpolimer merupakan material dengan sifat elastis dan mempunyai kuat tarik yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan baja. Selain mempunyai kelebihan sifat mekanika, FRP juga memiliki sifat tahan korosi, dan sifat non-magnetik, yang dapat memperlambat deteriorasi material akibat lingkungan. Pemodelan balok bertulangan FRP secara numeris dengan finite element perlu dibuat untuk menggantikan pengujian ekseperimental. Dalam penelitian ini dilakukan pemodelan elemen balok lentur dengan perangkat lunak ABAQUS CAE. Dimensi balok 150 mm x 100 mm, panjang 2400 mm dengan tulangan memanjang jenis glass fiber reinforcement polimer (GFRP) tekan dan tarik masing - masing 2D10 dan sengkang D4-100 dengan pembebanan statik  four point loading.  Dalam pemodelan digunakan interaksi perfect bond antara GFRP dan beton sekelilingnya. Untuk validasi pemodelan, kurva beban - defleksi hasil pemodelan dibandingkan dengan kurva beban – defleksi hasil pengujian eksperimental sebelumnya. Hasil model tervalidasi relatif baik dibandingkan hasil eksperimental. Dengan hasil pemodelan yang sudah tervalidasi, beban maksimum model numerik dibandingkan dengan analisis kapasitas lentur nominal SNI 8970 : 2021 sehingga didapatkan rasio perbandingan kapasitas nominal dan beban maksimum model numerik. Diagram beban-defleksi di awal sangat dekat, dengan selisih beban ultimit pada model dengan hasil pengujian lentur balok 12,1%. Perbandingan kapasitas lentur nominal bertulangan GFRP berdasarkan SNI 8970:2021 dan beban maksimum model numerik diperoleh 0,5, aman digunakan sebagai acuan perencanaan balok beton bertulangan.
NON-ENGLISH MAJOR UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS’ DIFFICULTIES IN ARGUMENTATIVE WRITING AT MAE FAH LUANG UNIVERSITY THAILAND
Authors: Arihasta Dian
Published: October 2023

Argumentative writing has always been challenging for the majority of EFL learners across the globe. Many researchers have investigated English major students’ difficulties in argumentative writing. However, little did we know about the difficulties non-English major students experienced. Thus, this qualitative study aimed to discover the difficulties faced by non-English major EFL learners taking the English for Communication 2 course at Mae Fah Luang University, Thailand, in argumentative writing and its contributing factors. There were 201 students from 10 different majors from Thailand and Myanmar who were purposely selected as the participants of this study. A closed-ended questionnaire and semi-structured interview were used as the data collection instruments. The data analysis indicates that the majority of the students experienced difficulties in content (generating and developing ideas), grammar (using correct tenses and various sentence structures), organization (creating a claim, convincing evidence, a concluding sentence, etc.), vocabulary (lack of vocabulary and difficulty in using academic vocabulary), and mechanics (spelling, punctuation, and capitalization). Limited practice time, topic unfamiliarity, and pre-university writing class experience are among the contributing factors to these difficulties. This finding demands further research dealing with the recommended strategies to improve argumentative writing instruction in the future.
