Development of a Five-Degree-of-Freedom Seated Human Model and Parametric Studies for Its Vibrational Characteristics by Jong-Jin Bae, Namcheol Kang

“…Five-degree-of-freedom nonlinear equations of motion for a human model were derived, and human parameters such as spring constants and damping coefficients were extracted using a three-step optimization processes that applied the experimental data to the mathematical human model. The natural frequencies and mode shapes of the linearized model were also calculated. …”

LA INVESTIGACIÓN CIENTÍFICA Y EL PROBLEMA DE SU JUSTIFICACIÓN EN LA DISCUSIÓN BOYLE / SPINOZA by José Luis Cárdenas

“…El propósito de este artículo es mostrar el conflicto de carácter epistémico y metodológico que está en juego en la discusión Boyle/Spinoza, y que permite apreciar cómo, en la naciente ciencia natural del siglo XVII, habría que revaluar al menos dos aspectos: i) la preferencia por un conocimiento hipotético y práctico, en lugar de la mera pretensión de una certeza absoluta del conocimiento científico; y ii) que la investigación de la naturaleza exige una experimentación cuidadosa, que demanda el desarrollo de criterios epistemológicos y de método distintos a los que acostumbraban emplear muchos filósofos modernos.…”

Transparency, Translucency, and Obscurity in the Victorian Monologue by Jean-Charles Perquin

“…In other words, the reader reconstructs the speech in the back of the voiceless listener’s mind, thus adding to the natural difficulty of poetic language. If poetry rests on the maximal use of the possibilities of language, the genre of the dramatic monologue adds to that condition the indirection of speech, i.e. the fact that the addressee has to miss the message the reader has to understand in order to build an intricate mesh of misunderstandings. …”

ANÁLISIS FUNCIONALES Y EXPLICACIONES SELECCIONALES EN BIOLOGÍA. UNA CRÍTICA DE LA CONCEPCIÓN ETIOLÓGICA DEL CONCEPTO DE FUNCIÓN by Gustavo Caponi

“…Contrariando la concepción etiológica de las funciones biológicas, se pretende mostrar que las explicaciones por selección natural, lejos de justificar atribuciones funcionales, las presuponen; y que estas atribuciones pueden ser entendidas apelando a una especificación particular de la concepción sistémica de función: concepción biológica de función. …”
