ETA Del cese del terrorismo a la disolucin Mayor Spanish Edition
El 20 de octubre de 2011, ETA anunció el cese definitivo de la violencia. Fue realmente su final. En aquel momento, el Gobierno socialista de Rodríguez Zapatero no descartaba una escisión debida a las disidencias en el mundo abertzale; su sucesor un mes después, Mariano Rajoy, desoyó los consejos que abogaban por el diálogo y por una flexibilización de la política penitenciaria. Era obvio que ETA pretendía por esta vía difuminar su derrota, pues el terrorismo había cesado sin lograr ninguno de sus objetivos políticos. Afortunadamente, el 3 de mayo de 2018 tuvo lugar su disolución unilateral. En ese periodo de siete años, los cambios sociales y políticos en Euskadi, tras casi cinco décadas de terrorismo con 854 víctimas mortales (más de un millar si se añaden los de la guerra sucia y las extralimitaciones policiales) transformaron Euskadi subordinando la cuestión identitaria a los problemas reales de la ciudadanía. Este libro pasa revista al proceso de disolución de ETA profundizando ta

Springer Nature Switzerland AG A New Meta-heuristic Optimization Algorithm Based on the String Theory Paradigm from Physics
This book focuses on the fields of nature-inspired algorithms, optimization problems and fuzzy logic. In this book, a new metaheuristic based on String Theory from Physics is proposed. It is important to mention that we have proposed the new algorithm to generate new potential solutions in optimization problems in order to find new ways that could improve the results in solving these problems. We are presenting the results for the proposed method in different cases of study. The first case, is optimization of traditional benchmark mathematical functions. The second case, is the optimization of benchmark functions of the CEC 2015 Competition and we are also presenting results of the CEC 2017 Competition on Constrained Real-Parameter Optimization that are problems that contain the presence of constraints that alter the shape of the search space making them more difficult to solve. Finally, in the third case, we are presenting the optimization of a fuzzy inference system, specifically for finding the optimal design of a fuzzy controller for an autonomous mobile robot. It is important to mention that in all study cases we are presenting statistical tests in or-der to validate the performance of proposed method. In summary, we believe that this book will be of great interest to a wide audience, ranging from engineering and science graduate students, to researchers and professors in computational intelligence, metaheuristics, optimization, robotics and control.

World Scientific Europe Ltd Wear In Advanced Engineering Applications And Materials
Wear is one of the main reasons mechanical components and materials become inoperable, rendering enormous costs to society over time. Estimating wear allows engineers to predict the useful life of modern mechanical elements, reduce the costs of inoperability, or obtain optimal designs (i.e. selecting proper materials, shapes, and surface finishing according to mechanical conditions and durability) to reduce the impact of wear.Wear in Advanced Engineering Applications and Materials presents recent computational and practical research studying damage and wear in advanced engineering applications and materials. As such, this book covers numerical formulations based on the finite element method (FEM) — and the boundary element method (BEM) — as well as theoretical and experimental research to predict the wear response or life-limiting failure of engineering applications.

Editorial Universidad Francisco de Vitoria Planeamiento y diseo urbano
La ciudad actual es el resultado de una larga sucesión de situaciones vividas por grupos humanos (generaciones) que se han desarrollado sobre un mismo espacio a lo largo del tiempo configurando aquella. Diversas actividades humanas, como las religiosas, las políticas y las económicas, han ido contribuyendo a esa configuración, que se ha ido realizando por añadidos sucesivos de elementos materiales persistentes, especialmente edificios y calles.Por ello la ciudad actual presenta una serie de fragmentos que, a pesar de las transformaciones que han sufrido, conservan claramente los rasgos propios de las formas de hacer ciudad en distintas épocas anteriores, a veces incluso muy remotas, adoptando el plano de aquella el aspecto de un mosaico de piezas heterogéneas ensambladas o simplemente yuxtapuestas.
