Se realizó un análisis comparativo de materiales en un diseño de hormigón, usando  agregado  grueso  procedentes de la Cantera Megarok y San Agustín perteneciente a la Parroquia  Picoaza, con el uso de agregado fino de  dos sectores del rio Portoviejo. El otro agregado grueso que se utilizo fue de la Cantera la Chicha y para agregado  fino del rio Chone. En donde se compararon sus propiedades físicas mecánicas  de los materiales. Se plantearon tres alternativas de diseños para saber cuál aporta mayores resistencias es decir  las arenas de los ríos Portoviejo del Sector el Cady hasta el Puente San Ignacio, el rio   Lodana hasta el Pollo   y en Chone el sector Puente Olimpo hasta el sector Las Banderas, adicionalmente se comparó el agregado grueso entre las canteras Picoaza y la Chicha. Se tomaron muestras  de arena de tres meandros en cada rio, y con cada diseño se elaboraron 6 cilindros de hormigón para cada meandro probándolos a los 7, 14, y 28 días. Al analizar los resultados se concluye que las arenas finas de los dos sectores del   río Portoviejo  y el rio Chone no cumplen para su   utilización como agregado fino para hormigones de resistencias superiores a  F’c 240 kg/cm2 y al realizar el ensayo de resistividad superficial, se obtuvo valores no favorables.   Palabras claves - Resistencia de Compresión, Resistividad Superficial, Modulo de Finura. Hormigones, Arenas, Meandros.   Abstract A comparative analysis of materials was carried out in a concrete design, using coarse aggregate from the Megarok and San agustin Quarry belonging to Picoazá Parish, with the use of fine aggregate from two sectors of Portoviejo’s River. The other coarse aggregate that was used is from the La Chicha Quarry, and for fine aggregate  from  Chone’s  River.  Where  their physical mechanical properties of the materials were compared. Three design alternatives were proposed to know which one contributes the greatest resistance, that is, the sands of Portoviejo’s rivers, from the El Cady sector to the San Ignacio Bridge, the Lodana River to the Pollo, and in Chone, from the Olimpo Bridge to the Las Banderas sector, additionally the coarse aggregate between the quarries Picoazá and La Chicha where compared. Sand samples were taken from three meanders in each river, and with each design 6 concrete cylinders were made for each meander, testing them at 7, 14, and 28 days. When analyzing the results, it is concluded that the fine sands of the two sectors of Portoviejo’s River, and the Chone’s River; do not comply for their use as a fine aggregate for concretes with resistance  greater  than  F’c  240  kg/cm2  and when the surface resistivity test where made, unfavorable values were obtained. Index Terms - Compression Resistance, Surface Resistivity, Fineness Module, Concrete, Sands, Meander.

Despite a number of efforts to evaluate the utility of water-diesel emulsions (WED) in CI engine to improve its performance and reduce its emissions in search of alternative fuels to combat the higher prices and depleting resources of fossil fuels, no consistent results are available. Additionally, the noise emissions in the case of WED are not thoroughly discussed which motivated this research to analyze the performance and emission characteristics of WED. Brake thermal efficiency (BTE) and brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) were calculated at 1600 rpm within 15%–75% of the load range. Similarly, the contents of NOx, CO, and HC, and level of noise and smoke were measured varying the percentage of water from 2% to 10% gradually for all values of loads. BTE in the case of water emulsified diesel was decreased gradually as the percentage of water increased accompanied by a gradual increase in BSFC. Thus, WED10 showed a maximum 13.08% lower value of BTE while BSFC was increased by 32.28%. However, NOx emissions (21.8%) and smoke (48%) were also reduced significantly in the case of WED10 along with an increase in the emissions of HC and CO and noise. The comparative analysis showed that the emulsified diesel can significantly reduce the emission of NOx and smoke, but it has a negative impact on the performance characteristics and HC, CO, and noise emissions which can be mitigated by trying more fuels variations such as biodiesel and using different water injection methods to decrease dependency on fossil fuels and improve the environmental impacts of CI engines.

<p>A pesar de la cantidad de ríos que tiene Costa Rica, la mayoría muestra algún grado de contaminación. Por lo tanto, resultan de particular interés aquellos que forman parte de la Gran Área Metropolitana, en donde se concentra el 70% de la población del país.</p> <p>Si bien la calidad del agua se puede determinar por medio del análisis de distintos indicadores, es ventajosa su simplificación por medio del uso de índices de calidad del agua. Uno de los índices adoptados en Costa Rica es el “Índice holandés de valoración de la calidad del agua” (ICA holandés), el cual se basa en el uso de tres indicadores: la demanda bioquímica de oxígeno, el nitrógeno amoniacal y el oxígeno disuelto, este último expresado como porcentaje de saturación de oxígeno.</p> <p>En el presente estudio se analizaron estos indicadores en diez ríos localizados en las provincias de San José, Alajuela, Heredia y Cartago, así como en la Península de Osa. Además, para correlacionar el ICA holandés con la densidad poblacional, se muestrearon tres puntos en cada río: la zona alta cercana a la naciente del río, la zona media y la zona baja, ubicada cerca de la desembocadura del río.</p> <p>Se encontró que los ríos que atraviesan las ciudades altamente densas, las cuales poseen densidades poblacionales superiores a los 8000 habitantes por kilómetro cuadrado (hab/km<span>2</span>), muestran niveles de contaminación en los ríos de “severa” a “muy severa”; por otra parte, lugares con densidades poblacionales entre los 3000-8000 hab/km<span>2</span>, en general, muestran niveles de contaminación de “moderada” a “severa”; mientras que los poblados con menos de 1000 hab/ km<span>2 </span>causan que la calidad de las aguas presente un nivel de contaminación de “incipiente” a “no contaminada”. Estos resultados pueden variar dependiendo del caudal de los ríos, su recorrido total y el uso que se le dé a la tierra.</p> <p>El análisis de Regresión Lineal Univariable mostró una correlación positiva entre el ICA holandés y la densidad poblacional, y utiliza un nivel de probabilidad del 95%.</p>

The aim of this study is to realize an analysis of public-private partnerships (PPPs) in Albania. Our focus will mainly be the PPPs in the energy sector. Public-private partnerships contracts have experienced a significant increase in the last decades in Albania. They have had a great impact on public finances of the country, this is why they have often been “attacked” for the negative impact that they might have on the actual and especially the future of the country. We will work to make a comparative analysis of the cost and benefits that Albania has had from signing these contracts. We will also work to analyze the management of these public-private partnerships during the pandemics, which will be helpful to reveal the possible difficulties that the government might have in managing them. Something that has inspired us to make a deeper analysis of them is related to the energy crises that the country has experienced in the last years. We want to “dig” deeper in order to see if these PPPs are really worth it or not. Is it worth or it brings a burden for the actual and future generations of Albania?

The purpose of this chapter is to examine the drivers of secondary bond market and stock market liquidity for investment analysis after global financial crisis in Turkey. The literature in Turkey mainly focuses only on the volatility of return for driving liquidity in both bond and stock markets. However, it is argued that other types of volatilities including domestic and international volatilities have also a deteriorating impact on secondary market liquidity in Turkey. In this context, it is empirically tested whether the volatility and/or uncertainty that stem from the FED and ECB policies within the last 10 years had a negative impact on liquidity both in government bond and stock markets. Moreover, the impact of non-residents in bond and stock markets on secondary market liquidity is examined by including their holdings in stock and bond market.

Intimate partner violence (IPV) routine screening is widely implemented, yet the evidence for pathways to impact remains unclear. Of the 32 abused women interviewed 16 weeks after antenatal IPV screening, 24 reported positive impact, six reported nil positive impact, and two reported negative impact. Using qualitative comparative analysis (QCA), key conditions for positive impact were care in asking, and support and validation from the midwife. Lack of these and lack of continuity of care were relevant to nil positive impact. Benefits included naming the abuse, connection, unburdening, taking steps to safety, and enabling informed care. Disclosure was not required for positive impact.
