Use of explicit criteria for total hip joint replacement fixation techniques
Authors: Ramón Tobio,Jose M Aranburu,J. Ignacio Goenaga,Inmaculada Arostegui,José M. Quintana,Jesús Azkarate,Begoña Goikoetxea
We developed a tool to judge the appropriateness of indications and fixation mechanisms for total hip joint replacement (THJR) and applied it to a sample of patients. Criteria were developed using a modified Delphi panel judgment process, following the RAND methodology (RAM). We recruited, during 1… Elsevier BV

On the effective thermal diffusivity of fiber-reinforced composites
Authors: Agustín Sánchez-Lavega,J. M. Terrón,R. Celorrio,Agustín Salazar
Modulated photothermal techniques provide useful methods based on linear relations between measurable quantities to obtain the thermal diffusivity of homogeneous materials. In this letter the applicability of such linear relations in the case of unidirectional fiber-reinforced composites (UFRC) is… AIP Publishing

General solution for the thermal wave scattering in fiber composites

Photoelastic effect and mirage deflection in anisotropic materials
Authors: Agustín Sánchez-Lavega,Gerardo Gutiérrez-Juárez,Whye-Teong Ang,Agustín Salazar,M. Gateshki
The collinear mirage technique is widely used to measure the thermal diffusivity of semi-transparent materials. However, in a recent paper [A. Salazar, M. Gateshki and A. Sanchez-Lavega: Appl. Phys. Lett. 76, 2665 (2000)], it was shown that for isotropic materials, because of the influence of… Springer Science and Business Media LLC

Global wellposedness for 1D non-linear Schrödinger equation for data with an infinite L2 norm
Authors: Ana Vargas,Luis Vega
AbstractWe prove global wellposedness for the one-dimensional cubic non-linear Schrödinger equation in a space of distributions which is invariant under Galilean transformations and includes L2. This space arises naturally in the study of the restriction properties of the Fourier transform to… Elsevier BV

A similarity approach to the atmospheric dynamics of giant extrasolar planets and brown dwarfs

The Merger of Two Giant Anticyclones in the Atmosphere of Jupiter
Authors: Sánchez-Lavega, Agustín,Orton, Glenn S.,Morales, Rafael,Lecacheux, Jean,Colas, François,Fisher, B.,Fukumura-Sawada, P.,Golisch, W.,Griep, D.,Kaminski, C.,Baines, Kevin H.,Rages, K. A.,West, R.
Abstract Two giant ovals in Jupiter's southern atmosphere, vortices of counterclockwise-rotating winds, merged in a 3-week period, starting in March 2000. One of the ovals called FA was more than 60 years old; the other called BE was the product of two 60-year-old ovals (BC and DE) that merged in… Elsevier BV

A NOTE ON THE NONLINEAR SCHRÖDINGER EQUATION IN WEAK LpSPACES
Authors: Cazenave, Thierry,Vega, Luis,Vilela, Mari Cruz
We study the global Cauchy problem for the equation iut+Δu+λ|u|αu=0 in ℝN. Using generalized Strichartz' inequalities we show that, under some restrictions on α, if the initial value is sufficiently small in some weak Lpspace then there exists a global solution. This result provides a common… World Scientific Pub Co Pte Lt

Knowledge Sources for Word Sense Disambiguation
Authors: David Martinez,Eneko Agirre
Two kinds of systems have been defined during the long history of WSD: principled systems that define which knowledge types are useful for WSD, and robust systems that use the information sources at hand, such as, dictionaries, light-weight ontologies or hand-tagged corpora.
