Abstract Damped vibration absorbers can significantly reduce the amplitude of resonant motion. Normally, these devices are used on machinery that is non-rotating (stationary). However, as this paper demonstrates both analytically and experimentally, a damped absorber can be successfully applied on rotating equipment, particularly on vertical machines, to attenuate lateral resonances. To illustrate this application, a detailed analysis of the damped absorber is presented, focusing on mass ratio, tuning frequency, amount of damping, and speed effects. It is shown that an optimum design can be obtained for use on a rotating machine that parametrically differs from a non-rotating application. Test data is also given illustrating the effectiveness of the concept and design methodology on an actual machine. Recommendations are provided to guide the application of this technology on other rotating machines.

This paper deals with the optimum design of vibration absorbers utilized to reduce undesirable random vibrational effects that are originated in linear structures. Analytical expressions, for the case of nonstationary white-noise accelerations, are derived. The criterion is different from most conventional optimum design criteria, since it is based on minimizing the displacement or the acceleration variance of the main structure responses, without considering performances required against failure. In this study, in order to control the structural vibrations induced on a mechanical structure excited by nonstationary based acceleration random process, the MOO (multi-objective optimum) design of a vibration absorber has been developed in a typical seismic design problem. This has been performed using the modern imperialist competitive optimization algorithm for multi-objective optimization. Results demonstrate the importance of this method and show that the multi-objective design methodology provides a significant improvement in performance stability, giving a better control of the design solution choice. A numerical example of a vibration absorber for a multi degree of freedom (DOF) system is developed and the results are generated and compared for higher (DOF) systems using two types of modeling. Finally, the results of each of the two types are discussed.

Abstract A new methodology is presented for the design of planar vibration absorbers. For the most part, previous methods have dealt with systems constrained to a single degree-of-freedom and require the absorber to be along the line of the exciting force. The presented methodology is more versatile and allows the placement of the absorber as a design freedom. Three specific design techniques for force and couple excitations are detailed along with numerical examples illustrating the results.

Objective: Tourism has become the main engine of economic, social and environmental development in several countries, so promoting tourism awareness among tourists and the local population should be a priority. The present study aims to suggest a status of the research carried out on the topic of tourism awareness. Design / methodology / approach: The type of analysis is through a retrospective and exploratory bibliometric study. The analysis materials were scientific articles and a training manual published between 2000 and 2020, registered by Scopus, Emerald insight and Dialnet, using “tourism awareness” as the keyword. Results: When considering the three senses in which tourism awareness ought to operate, it is concluded that studies are more focused on the relationship and contact of the host community with the tourist. It is observed that four out of six articles in this sense consider that education, training, and government policies around tourism awareness should be developed in a better way in the destinations, in order to be an element that contributes to the development of communities and reduces poverty in developing countries. Study limitations / implications: It is considered a limitation not to include thesis dissertations. Findings / conclusions: It is necessary to make visible the importance of tourism awareness as a local development strategy for communities, in addition to including tourism awareness on the part of tourists.

Objective: This article describes and analyzes the main concepts of coastal ecosystems, these as a result of research concerning land-use change assessments in coastal areas. Design/Methodology/Approach: Scientific articles were searched using keywords in English and Spanish. Articles regarding land-use change assessment in coastal areas were selected, discarding those that although being on coastal zones and geographic and soil identification did not use Geographic Information System (GIS). Results: A GIS is a computer-based tool for evaluating the land-use change in coastal areas by quantifying variations. It is analyzed through GIS and its contributions; highlighting its importance and constant monitoring. Limitations of the study/Implications: This research analyzes national and international scientific information, published from 2007 to 2019, regarding the land-use change in coastal areas quantified with the digital GIS tool. Findings/Conclusions: GIS are useful tools in the identification and quantitative evaluation of changes in land-use in coastal ecosystems; which require constant evaluation due to their high dynamism.

Objective: to determine the distribution of D. viscosa in the vicinity of the Guadalupe Victoria Dam in Durango, Mexico, for the years 1990, 2010 and 2017.Design/Methodology/Approach: Landsat satellite images were processed in order to carry out supervised classifications using an artificial neural network. Images from the years 1990, 2010 and 2017 were used to estimate ground cover of D. viscosa, pastures, crops, shrubs, and oak forest. This data was used to calculate the expansion of D. viscosa in the study area.Results/Study Limitations/Implications: the supervised classification with the artificial neural network was optimal after 400 iterations, obtaining the best overall precision of 84.5 % for 2017. This contrasted with the year 1990, when overall accuracy was low at 45 % due to less training sites (fewer than 100) recorded for each of the land cover classes.Findings/Conclusions: in 1990, D. viscosa was found on only five hectares, while by 2017 it had increased to 147 hectares. If the disturbance caused by overgrazing continues, and based on the distribution of D. viscosa, it is likely that in a few years it will have the ability to invade half the study area, occupying agricultural, forested, and shrub areas
