<p>Este artículo presenta una evaluación experimental de cargas en casas ecoamigables hechas con botellas de plástico (pet) rellenas con arena y reforzadas con acero corrugado en marco del proyecto “Diseño y modelación de muros formados por botellas de tereftalato de polietileno rellenas de arena y reforzadas con acero corrugado” desarrollado en la Universidad Santo Tomas, Villavicencio – Colombia, en el año 2022.</p> <p><em>Introducción:</em> el pet es un material pobremente biodegradable que se ha tornado un problema de contaminación medioambiental. Los sistemas de construcciones alternativas con botellas pet recicladas pueden suplir funciones de construcción, tomando ventaja de sus características mecánicas; también ayudan a reducir la contaminación medioambiental a través del reciclaje y reducen costos de construcción.</p> <p><em>Metodología:</em> las botellas fueron colocadas verticalmente y no horizontalmente como se hace generalmente, además, estas botellas fueron reforzadas de acero corrugado para proveer estabilidad lateral al sistema propuesto. Para evaluar el sistema frente a diferentes escenarios de carga, se realizó una caracterización de las propiedades mecánicas de los elementos propuestos y se construyó un modelo de elementos finitos con el objetivo de representar una aproximación del comportamiento real de la casa que cumple los requerimientos de la nsr-10.</p> <p><em>Resultados:</em> se determinó que la estructura soportará las cargas impuestas, presentando un ise de 0,8 para muros de carga y esta no presentará deformaciones excesivas de acuerdo a un ifl de 0,9.</p> <p><em>Conclusiones:</em> debido a que el modelo a escala soportó las cargas verticales, se demuestra que el sistema provee seguridad a sus ocupantes y que el sistema de construcción propuesto genera reducción en los costos.</p> <p><em>Originalidad:</em> aunque podemos encontrar casas construidas con botellas llenas con arena, estas son generalmente construidas con las botellas colocadas horizontalmente. Este proyecto propone el estudio de casas hechas con botellas configuradas verticalmente, con el fin de reducir su espacio constructivo.</p> <p><em>Limitaciones:</em> en la práctica la caracterización de los atributos mecánicos del conjunto de materiales es naturaleza heterogénea, lo cual dificulta la alimentación de dichos atributos en los modelos de simulación. Por esto se propuso evaluar los atributos mecánicos del conjunto de materiales y asumirlos como homogéneos en el modelo.</p>

<p>Introduction: Walden, Capella, and the University of Phoenix universities generate many African-American doctoral graduates, according to Diverse Problems in Higher Education.</p> <p>Problem: While these universities graduate many minority students with doctoral degrees, they contribute significantly to student loan debt. These universities are for-profit, on-line, or owned by for-profits. Because of that classification, these universities and their doctoral degrees have stigmas in higher education that may hinder African American and other minority faculty chances at elite, state flagship, and prestigious research universities.</p> <p>Objective: The research aims to formulate strategies to help African-Americans be more knowledgeable about non-traditional doctoral program selection and the current stigmas of graduating with a doctorate from a totally online or for-profit university. The purpose is not to diminish the accomplishment of anyone with the intellect, courage, and talent to get a regionally accredited doctoral degree. This research intends to educate and empower African-American and other students of color in their doctoral decision-making and discuss the stigmas against doctorates from for-profit universities and totally on-line universities in the U.S.</p> <p>Methodology: The approach used was a content analysis of the literature and qualitative interviews using a phenomenological research approach. The purpose is not to diminish or demonize graduates and degrees from regionally accredited on-line doctorate programs offered by for-profit universities, because they have provided opportunities and access to doctoral education. The goal is to share the realities of the current stigmas of those degrees from those universities in academic communities at the most highly ranked universities. The ultimate aim would be to educate them on the importance of school choice, even if the only viable option for doctoral completion is an on-line or hybrid doctoral program.</p> <p>Results: Academic careers often depend on having a doctorate and the university that awards that doctorate. So, African-Americans and other students of color should investigate and choose brick-and-mortar universities with online and hybrid doctoral programs, which are often viewed more favorably. This study offers an accurate world understanding of the challenges and stigmas of African American doctoral graduates driven by where they pursue their doctorate degrees.</p> <p>Conclusion: This project seeks to change the behavior of doctoral program selection and modification practices that would make graduates more successful and favorable for full-time faculty jobs after graduation.</p> <p>Originality: The gap in the literature explored is the limited academic discussion about how attending and completing a doctorate from one of these universities can be detrimental to African-Americans, especially if they are interested in full-time tenure-track faculty careers at non profit research universities.</p> <p>Limitations: More current research is needed on the stigmas and challenges of getting a doctorate from a for profit or totally online university. More scholarly dialogues from the literature could have enriched the study.</p>

<p>Introduction: This article, developed between 2022 and 2023 within the framework of Applied Stochastic Processes by the SciBas group at the Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas, focuses on the role of Hidden Markov Models (HMM) in predicting cardiovascular diseases.</p> <p>Problem: The addressed issue is the need to enhance the early detection of heart diseases, emphasizing how HMM can address uncertainty in clinical data and detect complex patterns.</p> <p>Objective: To evaluate the use of Hidden Markov Models (HMM) in the analysis of electrocardiograms (ECG) for the early detection of cardiovascular diseases.</p> <p>Methodology: The methodology comprises a literature review concerning the relationship between HMM and cardiovascular diseases, followed by the application of HMM to prevent heart attacks and address uncertainty in clinical data.</p> <p>Results: The findings indicate that HMM is effective in preventing heart diseases, yet its effectiveness is contingent upon data quality. These results are promising but not universally applicable.</p> <p>Conclusions: In summary, this study underscores the utility of HMM in early infarction detection and its statistical approach in medicine. It is emphasized that HMM is not infallible and should be complemented with other clinical options and assessment methods in real-world situations.</p> <p>Originality: This work stands out for its statistical and probabilistic approach in the application of Hidden Markov Models (HMM) in medical analysis, offering an innovative perspective and enhancing the understanding of their utility in the field of medicine.</p> <p>Limitations: It is recognized that there are limitations, such as dependence on data quality and variable applicability in clinical cases. These limitations should be considered in the context of their implementation in medical practice.</p>
