Contemplación y santidad : trabajos, quietud y quietismo en la " Subida del Monte " by Pedro Vilas-Boas Tavares

“…En évoquant alors les faits marquants du développement du molinosisme lusitanien, nous terminerons en illustrant de manière graphique - et en recourant à une autre gravure du Mont de la Perfection - des expressions significatives de la réhabilitation à l’époque des Lumières de la divulgation de la théologie mystique, expressions présentes dans un abrégé pour directeurs spirituels, imprimé à Coïmbre, en 1779, sous l’égide du Docteur en théologie Francisco da Conceição (O.F.M.Cap.). Dans cet abrégé, le renforcement des exigences ascétiques imposées aux Fidèles dévots, l’insistance mise sur les efforts et les travaux personnels, la peur de la facilité et des erreurs passées, apparaissent de façon clairement marquée.…”

A Brain-Computer Interface for Teleoperation of a Semiautonomous Mobile Robotic Assistive System Using SLAM by Vidya Nandikolla, Bryan Ghoslin, Kevin Matsuno, Daniel A. Medina Portilla

“…The proposed assistive hybrid brain-computer interface (BCI) semiautonomous mobile robotic arm demonstrates a design that is (1) adaptable by observing environmental changes with sensors and deploying alternate solutions and (2) versatile by receiving commands from the user’s brainwave signals through a noninvasive electroencephalogram cap. Composed of three integrated subsystems, a hybrid BCI controller, an omnidirectional mobile base, and a robotic arm, the proposed robot has commands mapped to the user’s brainwaves related to a set of specific physical or mental tasks. …”

Methods to Test the Compressive Strength of Earth Blocks by Guanqi Lan, Sisi Chao, Yihong Wang, Ying Cui

“…To solve the problem of measuring the compressive strength of the earth block, the cube specimen, the half-block stacked specimen, and the full-size block specimen are used to measure the compressive strength of the molded adobe and rammed adobe, respectively, considering the influence of the specimen preparation process, loading direction, capping, and other factors. By comparing and analyzing the stress state, failure mode, and compressive strength of the specimen under various test methods, a compressive strength test method of earth blocks is determined, which is simple to operate, easy to standardize, and as close as possible to the actual strength of the blocks. …”
