Dynamic Discontinuous Control for Active Control of Mechanical Vibrations by Orestes Llanes Santiago, Alberto Prieto Moreno

“…This article shows the use of the discontinuous control using dynamic sliding modes for the active isolation of vibrations in mechanical systems. This type of control law constitutes a robust feedback control policy due to its insensitivity to external disturbance inputs, certain immunity to model parameter variations, within known bounds, and to the ever present modelling errors.  …”

ENERGIES AND VIBRATIONAL MODES OF SPECIES FORMED BYDEHYDROGENATION OF CH4IN PRESENCE OF O2OVER Cr2O3(0001) by S. N. Hernández Guiance, I. D. Coria, I. M. Irurzun

“…Also formaldehyde was formed by the reaction of CH2with molecular O2(Eads=−6.09 eV)and dioxymethylene by the reaction of CH2with O2 previously adsorbed in dissociative state on Cr2O3(0001), withEads=−8.17 eV. Finally, the vibrational modes found by DFT for each of the species were compared, which are ingood agreement with those of reference bibliography. …”

An experimental study on footsteps sound recognition as biometric under noisy conditions by Marisol Zeledón-Córdoba, Carolina Paniagua Peñaranda, Marvin Coto-Jiménez

“…The process of identification of a person is based on the study of footstep signals captured when walking over a sensing area, and the registering of sounds, pressure, vibration, or a combination of these measures. Application of this biometric can emerge in security systems, that identify persons who enter or leave a space, and in providing help to elderly and disabled persons. …”

Un collectionneur dans le siècle : entretien avec Hervé Fischer by Jorge Helft

“…Émigré à New York, puis à Buenos Aires, il y a quand même suivi la tradition familiale, incluant cette différence radicale que faisait son père entre la valeur de l’art et son commerce. C’est la vibration de l’œil qui compte. Et il est resté fidèle à cette idée que l’art, comme la musique, se juge à l’écho esthétique que l’on ressent, comme le lui disait aussi Marcel Duchamp. …”

Comparative Analysis between Singular Spectral Analysis and Empirical Mode Decomposition for Structural Damage Detection by Elisa C. González, Gladys E. Salcedo, Leonardo Cano

“…Context: In recent years, thanks to technological advances in instrumentation and digital signal processing, noninvasive methods to detect structural damage have become increasingly important. Vibration-based structural health monitoring (SHM) techniques allow detecting the presence and location of damage from permanent changes in the fundamental frequencies of signals. …”

PEDAGOGY OF THE HAPPENING: A NON-FORMAL EDUCATIONAL EXPERIENCE FOR REGIONALMUSIC. by Jorge Sossa Santos

“…It talks about hidden (rhizomatic) curriculum and flexible planning, open to the unexpected -so as not to be captured amidst the rigid segmentation of the pedagogical mechanism in music-, and also talks about the appropriation of a body-music, a body-sensitivity and movement, a body-pleasure always ready to enjoy the vibrations of the sonorous, and the aesthetic as a true experience.…”

Wireless Real-Time Data Acquisition System for Aerodynamic Characterization of a Wind Turbine by Jhoan S. Casallas, Hector Guillermo Parra-Peñuela, Elvis E. Gaona

“…Method: Data acquisition is performed by using Wind Sensor Rev.P sensors to measure wind velocity, and MMA7361 accelerometer to measure the vibrations generated by the wind in the turbine. Additionally, an ESP32 is required to process and transmit the data via Bluetooth, thus facilitating the installation of the real-time monitoring module inside the wind tunnel. …”

Ideas para el camino: Un apunte pedagógico by José A. Villarreal

“…Together with our inhabitable niches, there is a duality of delicate relations that we need to harmonize, insofar as vibrations, reverberations and resonances we occur dichotomously again and again: producers/ products, observers/observed, from/in this vast process: world/reality that ultimately is our decisions, uncertainties, actions and negligence.  …”
