In Situ Measurement of Local Hydrogen Production Rate by Bubble-Evolved Recording by Xiaowei Hu, Liejin Guo, Yechun Wang

“…By analyzing change of hydrogen bubble size as a function of time, we understood that hydrogen bubble growth experienced two periods, which were inertia effect dominated period and diffusion effect dominated period, respectively. The tendency of hydrogen bubble growth was similar to that of the gas bubble in boiling, while the difference in bubble diameter and growth time magnitude was great. …”

El barroco y Bolívar Echeverría : encuentros y desencuentros by Carlos Espinosa

“…Aparte de realizar una exegesis del concepto del barroco de Echeverría, problematiza las categorías centrales que Echeverría moviliza en su discusión sobre el barroco. Este texto propone que la distinción valor de uso y valor de cambio es poco fructífera para comprender el barroco como lo es también la idea del barroco como estetización de la vida. …”
