Desire satisfaction and its discontents
(Servicio Editorial de la Universidad del País Vasco/Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatearen Argitalpen Zerbitzua, 2023)
According to a well-established view of desire satisfaction, a desire that p is satisfied iff p obtains. Call this the ‘standard view’. The standard view is purely semantic, which means the satisfaction condition of desires ...
The normative role of logic for reasoning
(Servicio Editorial de la Universidad del País Vasco/Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatearen Argitalpen Zerbitzua, 2023)
This paper advocates for the normative role of logic in reasoning. I offer a response, an-chored in an externalist perspective, to two fronts of attack against the normativity thesis, namely Har-man’s sceptical challenge ...
Present’s actualizing and future’s becoming possible
(Servicio Editorial de la Universidad del País Vasco/Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatearen Argitalpen Zerbitzua, 2023)
The paper spells out the thesis that the crucial, substantial move of presentism should be to temporalize modality. The present is not simply actual, and the future not simply possible, but the present is becoming actual, ...
Monitoring and averting secondary collapse mechanisms in already ruined historic bridges by means of metric values obtained from archival photographs and the geometric analysis of the intrados
(CSIC, 2021-04)
[EN] This text describes a methodology for the geometric monitoring of abandoned bridges. In order to define the actual state and to monitor the evolution over time it is proposed the use of digital elevation models of the ...
Gender pairings in EFL child task-based interaction
(Universidad de Vigo, 2022-01-21)
Few studies have tackled gender differences in second language (L2) interaction,
and particularly, the effect of gender pairings on learning opportunities operationalized
as Language Related Episodes (LREs) has been ...
Assessing the energy trap of industrial agriculture in North America and Europe: 82 balances from 1830 to 2012
(Agronomy for Sustainable Development, 2023)
Early energy analyses of agriculture revealed that behind higher labor and land productivity of industrial farming, there was a decrease in energy returns on energy (EROI) invested, in comparison to more traditional organic ...
Physicochemical and Sensory Evaluation Data to Drive the Development of a Green Chili Pepper Hot Sauce from Unexploited Raw Materials
(Foods, 2023)
The present study shows the set of analyses conducted during the development of a hot chili pepper sauce to valorize green peppers usually discarded in the Espelette region (France). A traditional production process was ...
Convective storms in closed cyclones in Jupiter's South Temperate Belt: (I) observations
(Elsevier, 2022-07-01)
On May 31, 2020 a short-lived convective storm appeared in one of the small cyclones of Jupiter's South Temperate Belt (STB) at planetographic latitude 30.8S. The outbreak was captured by amateur astronomer Clyde Foster ...
The influence of cutting edge microgeometry on the broaching of Inconel 718 slots
(Elsevier, 2023-12)
In aero-engine production, the dovetails (firtrees) of turbine discs are manufactured by broaching. Introducing innovative micro-geometry modifications to broaching tools can significantly influence cutting force, energy ...
Experimental energy performance assessment of a bifacial photovoltaic system and effect of cool roof coating
(Elsevier, 2023-12)
In the quest for high albedo materials that boost the energy production of bifacial photovoltaic systems, a range of material already exists for reducing building roof surface temperatures, called cool roof materials. ...
