Pseudo-static slope stability procedures are often employed to evaluate the seismic performance of geotechnical slope systems, at least in the initial evaluation stages. To yield meaningful results, these methods should rely on parameters that are representative of the existing seismic demand and...

Multimat es una empresa de carácter familiar. Partió como una ferretería, es por esto que su nombre “Multimat” hace referencia a multi materiales. Con el pasar de los años, los dueños se dieron cuenta que la sección de menaje despertaba mayor interés en sus clientes, por lo tanto, decidieron tras...

Para ayudar a dar el puntapié inicial en esta importante tarea se elaboró este manual, material pedagógico del Curso Análisis Crítico de Medios de Periodismo de la Universidad del Desarrollo, que tiene como prop...

The correlation between spectral accelerations is key in the construction of conditional mean spectra, the computation of vector-valued seismic hazard, and the assessment of seismic risk of spatially distributed systems, among other applications. Spectral correlations are highly dependent on the ...

The purpose of this paper is twofold: first, it analyses the relationship between optimism about the emergence of future entrepreneurial opportunities and the length of the entrepreneurial experience; second, it aims to identify the external factors that can moderate this relationship. Our empiri...

With the aim of promoting knowledge of geomorphology through a tool that can be used by society as a whole, in a geomorphology course of geological degree project-based learning (PBL) and gamification were incorporated as an innovative teaching-learning methodology. The implementation of the proj...

We argue that visual representations of design processes contribute toward social and material practices of design(ing). They are used as didactic devices. We will discuss them using metaphors to illustrate that they are active material devices of which circulation, production and consumption are...

Argumentamos que representações visuais de processos de design contribuem para práticas sociais e materiais de design(ing). Eles são usados como dispositivos didáticos. Vamos discuti-los usando metáforas para ilustrar que são dispositivos para materiais ativos, dos quais a circulação, a produção ...

This study aimed to test the impact of play on the development of executive functions (EFs) in preschoolers. Thirty-two games were designed to be collectively played in groups by 70 children, in their regular classes. The games were specifically designed to promote the development of the three co...

En este trabajo se diseñó una intervención para contribuir a la formación de científicos, a través de rediseñar la evaluación de una tarea de desempeño auténtica. Para ello, se creó y validó una rúbrica analítica para evaluar un informe de laboratorio en formato publicación científica en la asign...
