El derecho humano al agua en El Salvador: reflexión jurídica sobre su reconocimiento, la situación del recurso hídrico y la efectividad de su protección
Authors: Gómez Aguilar Ingrid Evangelina , Candray Medina Héctor Orlando
Published: July 2024

This article offers an approach and discussion on the effective protection of the human right to water in El Salvador. In this sense, the purpose of the article is twofold: to discuss the situation of the human right to water from a legal point of view and to analyze whether people have effective ways to claim that right.
To achieve these purposes and to reflect on the effectiveness of the protection of the right to water in the country, a technical legal approach has been used. First, considering the legal-subjective faculties that make up the right to water, according to national and international norms, and reviewing the Salvadoran situation of water resources. This was done in order to establish conceptual bases and clarify, to a certain extent, the situation in the country. Second, the various constitutional, international, legal and jurisprudential norms that apply to the right to water were identified. Third, the administrative and judicial practice, in application of the identified norms were reviewed, with the purpose of protecting the right to water, in order to finally determine if an effective protection of the right to water can be predicated in the country.
As a result, we have identified eight administrative as well as four judicial avenues through which the conservation and protection of the right to water can be requested in one or more of its faculties. However, we have identified and discussed challenges to their effectiveness, considering their simplicity of access, speed of the competent entities to resolve and, importantly, their suitability for the defense of the human right to water.

Bariatrik cerrahi sonrası stenoz, birçok önemli kliniğe sebep olabilen oldukça önemli bir komplikasyondur. Sleeve gastrektomi sonrası stenoz, nadir olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır ancak erken tanı ve tedavi gerektirmektedir. Sleeve gastrektomi sonrası stenozların ilk basamak tedavisini endoskopik dilatasyonlar oluşturmaktadır. Dirençli olgularda ise Roux-en-y gastrik bypassa revizyon uygun cerrahi yöntemdir. Gastrik bypass cerrahileri sonrasında da gastrojejunal anastomozda stenoz nadir olarak meydana gelebilmektedir. Bu durumda da öncelikli tedavi seçeneğini endokopik dilatasyonlar oluştururken anastomoza yönelik restoratif cerrahi müdahale gereksinimi çok nadirdir.

Authors: Adetola Adewale Akinsulire  , Courage Idemudia  , Azubuike Chukwudi Okwandu  , Obinna Iwuanyanwu
Published: July 2024

The escalating demand for affordable housing necessitates innovative approaches to financial modeling and feasibility analysis to ensure the success and sustainability of housing policies. This abstract presents a conceptual synthesis of dynamic financial modeling and feasibility studies, exploring their pivotal role in shaping effective affordable housing policies. Dynamic financial modeling involves creating flexible and adaptive financial models that account for varying economic conditions, policy changes, and market fluctuations. These models are essential for predicting financial outcomes, assessing the viability of housing projects, and guiding investment decisions. By incorporating real-time data and scenario analysis, dynamic financial models help stakeholders understand potential risks and opportunities, enabling more informed decision-making. Key components of dynamic financial modeling include cash flow analysis, sensitivity testing, and scenario planning, which together provide a comprehensive view of a project's financial viability over time. Feasibility studies complement financial modeling by evaluating the practical aspects of affordable housing projects, such as site selection, regulatory compliance, and market demand. These studies assess the alignment of housing projects with community needs and regulatory requirements, ensuring that proposed developments are both feasible and beneficial. Feasibility studies often include market analysis, cost estimates, and risk assessments, providing a detailed understanding of project constraints and opportunities. The synthesis of dynamic financial modeling and feasibility studies offers a robust framework for evaluating affordable housing policies. It allows for the integration of financial projections with practical considerations, ensuring that policies are not only economically viable but also aligned with social and regulatory objectives. Case studies from various regions demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach in identifying successful strategies and addressing common challenges. In conclusion, dynamic financial modeling and feasibility studies are crucial tools for developing and implementing effective affordable housing policies. They provide a comprehensive understanding of financial and practical dimensions, facilitating informed decision-making and enhancing the sustainability and impact of affordable housing initiatives. This conceptual synthesis underscores the importance of integrating these methodologies to achieve long-term success in addressing housing affordability challenges.

Notas a partir del Fausto de Goethe y de algunos casos clínicos de Oliver Sacks sobre la relación entre poiesis y ceguera
Authors: Bartoli Fabio
Published: July 2024

El texto pretende analizar la relación entre la condición de ceguera que puede afectar a un sujeto y sus implicaciones en la actividad poiética del mismo. Para ello, acudimos a la reflexión heideggeriana sobre la poiesis como raíz común de los actuales conceptos de técnica y arte, ilustrando cómo la situación de ceguera puede ser favorable (o no) para las prácticas poiéticas. El análisis se desarrollará considerando, inicialmente, uno de los primeros ejemplos literarios de la Modernidad en plantear la relación entre la ceguera y la poiesis: la última escena del Fausto de Goethe, en donde el protagonista, luego de haber quedado ciego, decide construir un dique para contener la fuerza del mar. En una segunda parte, se complementarán nuestras observaciones con el estudio de algunos casos clínicos que Oliver Sacks expone en sus obras para destacar otras facetas de la relación entre ceguera y poiesis en un contexto de no ficción literaria. Con este análisis, se explicita de una manera clara que existe una relación entre poiesis y ceguera en el Fausto de Goethe y se identifican los rasgos de dicha correlación, destacando también su relevancia en el ámbito terapéutico y existencial de los estudios sobre ceguera.
Construire des cabanes narratives, faire lire au lycée à la voix active
Authors: Roux Évelyne
Published: July 2024

In her book Croire aux fauves, Nastassja Martin recounts her encounter with the wild world. This initiatory tale is part of what Jean-Christophe Cavallin, in his climatic map of literature, has called the pole of otherness. There are a number of advantages to offering it as a cursive reading to secondary school pupils, since as well as being an autobiographical story, a genre favoured by teenagers, it can help to transform their representations. In this article, we will first show that the reader is confronted with a narrative that imposes a triple displacement: geographical, anthropological and ontological. We will then consider the ways in which readers can become part of an ecocritical literary transmission. Finally, we will look at the possibility of constructing narrative huts, textual shelters as well as places capable of housing the beginnings of a new literary and ecological paradigm.

Abstract. Climatologies, which depict mean fields of oceanographic variables on a regular geographic grid, and atlases, which provide graphical depictions of specific areas, play pivotal roles in comprehending the societal vulnerabilities linked to ocean acidification (OA). This significance is particularly pronounced in coastal regions where most economic activities, such as commercial and recreational fisheries and aquaculture industries, occur. In this paper, we unveil a comprehensive data product featuring coastal ocean acidification climatologies and atlases, encompassing the fugacity of carbon dioxide, pH on the total scale, total hydrogen ion content, free hydrogen ion content, carbonate ion content, aragonite saturation state, calcite saturation state, Revelle factor, total dissolved inorganic carbon content, and total alkalinity content. These variables are provided on 1° × 1° spatial grids at 14 standardized depth levels, ranging from the surface to a depth of 500 m, along the North American ocean margins, defined as the region between the coastline and a distance of 200 nautical miles (∼370 km) offshore. The climatologies and atlases were developed using the World Ocean Atlas (WOA) gridding methods of the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) based on the recently released Coastal Ocean Data Analysis Product in North America (CODAP-NA), along with the 2021 update to the Global Ocean Data Analysis Project version 2 (GLODAPv2.2021) data product. The relevant variables were adjusted to the index year of 2010. The data product is available in NetCDF (https://doi.org/10.25921/g8pb-zy76, Jiang et al., 2022b) on the NOAA Ocean Carbon and Acidification Data System: https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/data/oceans/ncei/ocads/metadata/0270962.html (last access: 15 July 2024). It is recommended to use the objectively analyzed mean fields (with “_an” suffix) for each variable.

Abstract. Active faults serve as potential sources of destructive earthquakes. Studies and investigations of active faults are necessary for earthquake disaster prevention. This study presents a nation-scale database of active faults in China and its adjacent regions, in tandem with an associated web-based query system. This database is an updated version of the active faults data included in the Seismotectonic Map of China and its Adjacent Regions (1:4 000 000), which is one of the four essential maps of the mandatory Chinese standard GB 18306-2015 Seismic Ground Motion Parameter Zonation Maps of China. The data update and integration stem from regional-scale studies and surveys conducted over the past 2 decades (at reference scales from 1:250 000 to 1:50 000). The information amassed from these regional-scale studies and surveys encompasses geophysical probing, drill logging, measurement of offset landforms, sample dating, as well as geometric and kinematic parameters of exposed and blind faults, paleo-earthquake sequences, and recurrence intervals. These data have been acquired and analyzed utilizing a uniform technical standard framework and reviewed by expert panels in both field and laboratory settings. Our system hosts this nation-scale database accessible through a Web Geographic Information System (GIS) application, enabling browsing, querying, and downloading functionalities via a web browser. The system we built also publishes the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) Web Feature Service and the OGC Web Map Service of active faults data. Users can incorporate map layers and obtain fault data in OGC-compliant GIS software for further analysis through these services. The Chinese government, research institutions, and companies have widely used the active faults data from the previous versions of the database. The database is available at https://doi.org/10.12031/activefault.china.400.2023.db (Xu, 2023) and via the web system (https://data.activetectonics.cn/arcportal/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=684737e8849c4170bbca14447608c451, CEFIS, 2023; http://data.activetectonics.cn/arcserver/services/Hosted/CAFD400_2022_WFS/MapServer/WFSServer, CAFD WFS, 2024).
From rockfall source areas identification to susceptibility zonation: a proposed workflow tested in El Hierro (Canary Islands, Spain)
Authors: Sarro Roberto , Rossi Mauro , Reichenbach Paola , Mateos Rosa María
Published: July 2024

Abstract. Accurate rockfall modeling is crucial for evaluating rockfall hazards and requires consideration of several inputs data, including parameters that control boulder trajectories and source areas. Inaccurate definitions of source areas can lead to unrealistic representations of the rockfall process. In this study, we analyze how different approaches used to define source areas can affect the accuracy of rockfall modeling. The island of El Hierro (Canary Islands, Spain) is selected due to its geological and geomorphological characteristics, as well as the socio-economic importance of rockfalls on the island. To assess rockfall source areas, three different approaches were considered, ranging from situations with limited data availability to scenarios with many topographic, geological and geomorphological information. A morphometric firstly approach establishes a slope angle threshold above which block detachment zones are considered. For the second approach, we have employed a statistical method to identify rockfall source areas, using Empirical Cumulative Distribution Functions (ECDF) of slope angle values. The third method was a probabilistic modeling framework that applies a combination of multiple multivariate statistical classification models. These models use the mapped source areas as a dependent variable, as well as a set of thematic information as independent variables. The source area maps obtained from the three methods were used as inputs for a rockfall runout model, to establish a classification of rockfall susceptibility areas. One of the main outcome of the rockfall modeling simulations on El Hierro is the rockfall trajectory counts maps, showing areas prone to rockfalls. These maps indicate the probability of a given pixel being affected by a rockfall event. Two classification approaches were applied to generate the probabilistic susceptibility maps: unsupervised and supervised statistical methods by using distribution functions. The unsupervised classification only employs as input the raster map of the rockfall trajectory counts. In contrast, the supervised classification requires additional data on the areas already affected by rockfalls. Finally, six susceptibility maps are developed and compared to highlight the influence of source areas definition on the distribution of rockfall trajectories.
The role of construction consultants in disaster recovery

Published: July 2024

Abstract. Disaster recovery requires speed above all, and the public and private sectors need to work together. In the event of a disaster, the activities of the construction industry play a crucial role. Construction consultants, surveying companies, and geological survey companies play an important role. Construction consultants oversee the entire process of disaster recovery, from assessing the damage immediately after the disaster to managing the restoration work. In some cases, local governments order construction management services to supervise the entire disaster recovery work, and in such cases, construction consultants are even responsible for part of placing construction procurements. In this way, construction consultants have become an indispensable part of the disaster recovery process. This report is an introduction to the activities of construction consultants in times of disaster, using the heavy rains situations as examples, and presents of challenges and recommendations.
Greenland's firn responds more to warming than to cooling
Authors: Thompson-Munson Megan , Kay Jennifer E. , Markle Bradley R.
Published: July 2024

Abstract. The porous layer of snow and firn on the Greenland Ice Sheet stores meltwater and limits the rate at which the ice sheet contributes to sea level rise. This buffer is threatened in a warming climate. To better understand the nature and timescales of firn's response to air temperature change on the Greenland Ice Sheet, we use a physics-based model to assess the effects of atmospheric warming and cooling on Greenland's firn air content in idealized climate experiments. We identify an asymmetric response of Greenland's firn to air temperature: firn loses more air content due to warming compared to the amount gained from commensurate cooling. 100 years after a 1 °C temperature perturbation, warming decreases the spatially integrated air content by 9.7 %, and cooling increases it by 8.3 %. In dry firn, this asymmetry is driven by the highly nonlinear relationship between temperature and firn compaction, as well as the dependence of thermal conductivity on the composition of the firn. The influence of liquid water accentuates this asymmetry. In wet firn areas, melt increases nonlinearly with atmospheric warming, thus enhancing firn refreezing and further warming the snowpack through increased latent heat release. Our results highlight the vulnerability of Greenland firn to temperature change and demonstrate that firn air content is more efficiently depleted than generated. This asymmetry in the temperature–firn relationship may contribute to the overall temporally asymmetric mass change of the Greenland Ice Sheet in a changing climate across many timescales.

Abstract. Wake steering is a technique that optimizes the energy production of a wind farm by employing yaw control to misalign upstream turbines with the incoming wind direction. This work highlights the important dependence between wind direction variations and wake steering optimization. The problem is formalized over time as the succession of multiple steady-state yaw control problems interconnected by the rotational constraints of the turbines and the evolution of the wind. Then, this work proposes a reformulation of the yaw optimization problem of each time step by augmenting the objective function by a new heuristic based on a wind prediction. The heuristic acts as a penalization for the optimization, encouraging solutions that will guarantee future energy production. Finally, a synthetic sensitivity analysis of the wind direction variations and wake steering optimization is conducted. Because of the rotational constraints of the turbines, as the magnitude of the wind direction fluctuations increases, the importance of considering wind prediction in a steady-state optimization is empirically demonstrated. The heuristic proposed in this work greatly improves the performance of controllers and significantly reduces the complexity of the original sequential decision problem by decreasing the number of decision variables.

Authors: S. K. Das  , H. Zhang
Published: July 2024

A Matlab-Simulink based mathematical model and simulation method is developed by applying appropriate physics and electro-chemistry that adequately describes a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) system. The mathematical model is then simulated for a single low temperature PEMFC with a large, 350cm2, active area. The single cell’s performance was evaluated using different operating conditions and varying values of various crucial system parameters. The Matlab-Simulink model presented in this investigation is used to study various parameters’ effect such as the cell temperature from 50℃ to 90℃, inlet pressure, relative humidity (RH) from 70% to 90%, and the reactant stoichiometry ratio, on the cell performance. Comparison of polarization and power density curves were conducted between the model simulation and experimental data at 60℃ and at 65℃. Except for the higher current densities range (≥1.6 A/cm2), the simulation results match with the experimental results very well. The parametric study was used to determine the optimum value of various parameters. The fuel cell performance with the optimized parameter values show a good improvement using the developed MatLab-Simulink model.

Published: July 2024

This paper presents the analysis of the differential evolution (DE) metaheuristic method, which is used to estimate some parameters employed in the equivalent electrical circuit that represents the photovoltaic (PV) cell model. The DE algorithm is an evolutionary algorithm that can be designed to search global optimal points with fast convergence time and present accurate results, requiring few control variables to be set. The accuracy of reproducing the characteristics of the PV module depends on the knowledge of some PV cell model parameters, such as series and shunt resistances, diode ideality factor, and diode reverse saturation current. Once the referred parameters are not usually given in the manufacturers' datasheet, their determination can be achieved by the DE algorithm, employing data and the current-voltage (I-V) characteristic curve provided by the PV module manufacturers. The technique is designed to minimize the error between the reference I-V curve and the I-V curve reproduced by the DE algorithm. Through simulation results, the feasibility of the DE algorithm to estimate the desired parameters of a PV cell is validated, and the algorithm's performance to reach the best solution with fast convergence and a small iteration number is evaluated.

Published: July 2024

Currently, distribution system planning is crucial to meet both the present and future electricity needs of customers with minimal investments. This paper introduces a novel methodology to solve the distribution expansion planning problem by employing a heuristic based on genetic algorithms (GA). The proposed GA aims to minimize investment costs, electrical losses, and financial losses due to voltage sags and power interruptions. This GA is applied in the 18-busbar network with three planning stages. The results show that the GA deals with efficiency with the multi-objective problem obtaining solutions with reduced iterations and with minimum investments considering electrical losses, and financial losses.

The current direction of development predicts that Reinforcement Learning based data driven control methods can become a next generation technology to control electrical drives instead of the classical model-based techniques. The paper aims to evaluate toolboxes that can be used to train agents for control approaches. The paper helps lay the theoretical bases and provides guidelines for using these toolboxes via a case study. This is done to highlight each toolbox’s key aspects and workflow patterns, shifting the comparison to useability and peak-performance.
Comparison between FLL and PLL in frequency estimation to supply distributed virtual inertia
Authors: Erland Novoa  , Julio C. Tafur  , Damian Sal y Rosas
Published: July 2024

To connect renewable energy sources (e.g. solar or wind) on the grid, an inverter or electronic converter is used. However, a traditional inverter has no inertia in the face of frequency changes. Unlike the inertia of the rotor of a synchronous generator. Frequency variations are a product of the imbalance between the energy generated and the grid loads. If the frequency is too far from its nominal value or if the rate of change of frequency (RoCoF) is high, it can affect the synchronism of the generators that feed the grid. Therefore, power cuts are made in sectors on the grid, thus preventing instability from spreading to other sectors on the grid, which translates into large economic losses. Solutions such as inverters with virtual inertia (or emulated inertia) are a good alternative due to their structural simplicity and low cost, compared to other solutions such as synchronous condensers, for example. For the virtual inertial control strategy, the grid frequency needs to be measured. This article compares the use of a phase-locked loop (PLL) or a frequency-locked loop (FLL) for frequency estimation and its effect on inertia emulation. The proposed control designs are validated through simulations.

Authors: Peglow de Carvalho Higor , Spironello Rosangela Lurdes
Published: July 2024

O presente artigo teve por objetivo apresentar os principais resultados da investigação realizada a respeito de como a temática da Educação Ambiental vem sendo trabalhada nos cursos de formação de professores em Geografia, das Universidades Federais da metade Sul do Rio Grande do Sul. Nessa perspectiva, tem-se como enfoque nesta proposta, a defesa da Ambientalização Curricular (AC) como estratégia de ensino. A metodologia foi organizada em três etapas: a) Levantamento bibliográfico; b) Pesquisa documental; e c) Análise de Conteúdo de Bardin (2011), para coleta e interpretação dos dados. Dentre os instrumentos disponíveis, utilizou-se de questionário online para colher os dados dos respondentes. Como resultados, constatamos que as resoluções normativas que orientam a formação de professores, no ensino de Geografia e na Educação Ambiental, apresentam avanços e retrocessos nas versões lançadas. Em relação às respostas dos questionários, percebemos que coordenadores de curso e professores que trabalham com Educação Ambiental no mesmo curso ostentam opiniões distintas sobre a temática. A maioria absoluta dos respondentes associa os estudos sobre sociedade e natureza à Educação Ambiental. Ademais, os Quadros de Sequência Lógica (QSL) dos cursos analisados disponibilizam poucas disciplinas obrigatórias com enfoque em Educação Ambiental, mas, em contrapartida, oferecem optativas durante a sequência dos cursos. Por fim, acreditamos que a Ambientalização Curricular, baseada em Behrend (2020), Mota (2020) e Rodrigues (2022), se coloca como estratégia de abordagem como forma de transversalizar a Educação Ambiental na formação de professores de Geografia.
