• El método Statis como alternativa para detectar "response shift" en estudios de calidad de vida relacionada con la salud 

      Vicente Galindo, María Purificación; Galindo Villardón, María Purificación (2009-02-27)
      After evaluating problems in conceptualisation of Quality of Life outcomes andestablishing an operational definition of HRQoL, we focus the attention on the different dimensions of Response Shift and the theoretical Models ...
    • Evaluación de un algoritmo de recocido simulado con superficies de respuestas 

      Loranca, Maria Beatriz Bernábe; Espinosa Rosales, José E.; Ramírez Rodríguez, Javier (2009-02-27)
      The solution of the geographical clustering problem includes a combinatorial classificationof the geographical units. The aggregation proposed in this work requiresan objective function that minimizes the distance between ...
    • Indices of regularity and indices of randomness for m-ary strings 

      Skliar, Osvaldo; Monge, Ricardo E.; Oviedo Blanco, Guillermo; Medina, Víctor (2009-02-27)
      The notions “regularity index” and “randomness index” previously introduced forbinary strings (2-ary) have been modified slightly and generalized for m-ary strings(m = 2, 3, 4, . . .). These notions are complementary and ...
    • Las ecuaciones de Reynolds y la relación de clausura 

      Mercado Escalante, José Roberto (2009-02-27)
      We posed the problem to obtain the closure relation for the Reynolds equations.And like secondary target, to obtain analytical expressions for the Reynolds stress.Showing its jump of discontinuity like expression of the ...
    • Minimization of the first eigenvalue in problems involving the bi-laplacian 

      Anedda, Claudia; Cuccu, Fabrizio; Porru, Giovanni (2009-02-27)
      This paper concerns the minimization of the first eigenvalue in problems involvingthe bi-Laplacian under either homogeneous Navier boundary conditions or homogeneousDirichlet boundary conditions. Physically, in case of N ...
    • Predicción estacional del clima en Centroamérica mediante la reducción de escala dinámica. Parte II: aplicación del modelo MM5V3 

      Rivera Fernández, Erick; Amador Astúa, Jorge Alberto (2009-02-27)
      In the first part of this work it was determined that general circulation model(GCM) ECHAM4.5 shows more ability than CCM3.6 to simulate key climate featuresof Central America. For such reason, output from ECHAM4.5 was ...
    • Shipment consolidation by terminals and vehicles 

      González Ramírez, Rosa G.; Askin, Ronald G.; Smith, Neale R.; Villalobos, René (2009-02-27)
      This project designs and implements a new module in a logistics analysis tool called”Logistika” that was developed by some graduate students in ASU. Initially, Logistikaonly had available a “Plant location module”, but ...
    • The BPS preconditioner on Beowulf cluster 

      Salas Huertas, Oscar; Marazzina, Daniele; Rovida, Sergio; Sacchi, Giovanni; Scacchi, Simone (2009-02-27)
      This work presents the implementation on a Linux Cluster of a parallel preconditionerfor the solution of the linear system resulting from the finite element discretizationof a 2D second order elliptic boundary value problem. ...
    • Un procedimiento de fuerte reducción de las dimensiones del RCPS/Pi 

      Álvarez Valdés Olaguíbel, Ramón; Crespo, Enric; Tamarit Goerlich, José Manuel; Villa Juliá, M. Fulgencia (2009-02-27)
      Recently, in the field of project scheduling problems the concept of partially renewableresources has been introduced. Theoretically, it is a generalization of both renewable and non-renewable resources. From an applied ...
