      Of all the characteristics of a violin, those that concern its shape are probably the most important ones, as the violin maker has complete control over them. Contemporary violin making, however, is still based more on ...
    • Meruane Naranjo, Viviana; Aichele Figueroa, Diego; Ruiz García, Rafael; López Droguett, Enrique (Hindawi, 2021)
      The vibrational behavior of composite structures has been demonstrated as a useful feature for identifying debonding damage. The precision of the damage localization can be greatly improved by the addition of more measuring ...
    • Castañeda González, Álvaro Patricio; González, Pablo; Robledo Veloso, Gonzalo Ricardo (Amer Inst Mathematical Sciences-AIMS, 2021)
      A linear system of di erence equations and a nonlinear perturbation are considered, we obtain su cient conditions to ensure the topological equivalence between them, namely, the linear part satis es a property of ...
    • Sologuren Insúa, Enrique (Ediciones Universidad de Murcia, España, 2021)
      Genres written by students have received significant attention due to its diversity of functions in subject learning. Thus, the present article is framed within the study field of academic genres in Spanish. The aim of ...
    • Jara, Francisco; Lagos Zúñiga, Miguel; Fuster Gómez, Rodrigo; Mattar Bader, Cristian; McPhee Torres, James Peter (MDPI, 2021)
      Seasonal snow and glaciers in arid mountain regions are essential in sustaining human populations, economic activity, and ecosystems, especially in their role as reservoirs. However, they are threatened by global atmospheric ...
    • Ojeda, Javier; Ruiz Tapia, Sergio (Copernicus Gesellschaft MBH, 2021)
      On 3 March 2020, the first case of COVID-19 was confirmed in Chile. Since then, the Ministry of Health has imposed mobility restrictions, a global policy implemented to mitigate the propagation of the virus. The national ...
    • Moffat, Ricardo; Cáceres, Cristian; Tapia, Eugenia (MDPI, 2021)
      In underground mining, the design of rock pillars is of crucial importance as these are structures that allow safe mining by maintaining the stability of the surrounding excavations. Pillar design is often a complex task, ...
    • Goic Figueroa, Marcel; Bozanic Leal, Mirko Slovan; Badal, Magdalena; Basso Sotz, Leonardo (Public Library Science, 2021)
      By early May 2020, the number of new COVID-19 infections started to increase rapidly in Chile, threatening the ability of health services to accommodate all incoming cases. Suddenly, ICU capacity planning became a first-order ...
    • Arenas, Claudio; Herrera Huerta, Guillermo; Muñoz, Enrique; Muñoz Alvarado, Raúl (IOP, 2021)
      We report the resistivity measured at temperatures between 5 K and 300 K of a Cu film 63 nm thick with grains that have a diameter d = 10.5 nm on the average. The resistivity of this film is described by the first quantum ...
    • Vásquez R., Pía; Devoto, Ignacia; Ferrada, Pablo; Taquichiri, Abel; Portillo, Carlos; Palma Behnke, Rodrigo (MDPI, 2021)
      The Atacama Desert receives the highest levels of solar irradiance in the world with an annual average of 2500 kWh/m(2) for the global horizontal irradiance and 3500 kWh/m(2) for the direct normal irradiance. One of the ...
