This book presents a coherent framework for understanding the
dynamics of piecewise-smooth and hybrid systems. An informal
introduction expounds the ubiquity of such models via numerous. The
results are presented in an informal style, and illustrated with
many examples. The book is aimed at a wide audience of applied
mathematicians, engineers and scientists at the beginning
postgraduate level. Almost no mathematical background is assumed
other than basic calculus and algebra.
Whole Body Vibrations: Physical and Biological Effects on the Human
Body allows an understanding about the qualities and disadvantages
of vibration exposure on the human body with a biomechanical and
medical perspective. It offers a comprehensive range of principles,
methods, techniques and tools to provide the reader with a clear
knowledge of the impact of vibration on human tissues and
physiological processes. The text considers physical, mechanical
and biomechanical aspects and it is illustrated by key application
domains such as sports and medicine. Consisting of 11 chapters in
total, the first three chapters provide useful tools for measuring,
generating, simulating and processing vibration signals. The
following seven chapters are applications in different fields of
expertise, from performance to health, with localized or global
effects. Since unfortunately there are undesirable effects from the
exposure to mechanical vibrations, a final chapter is dedicated to
this issue. Engineers, researchers and students from biomedical
engineering and health sciences, as well as industrial
professionals can profit from this compendium of knowledge about
mechanical vibration applied to the human body. Provides
biomechanical and medical perspectives to understanding the
qualities and disadvantages of vibration exposure on the human body
Offers a range of principles, methods, techniques, and tools to
evaluate the impact of vibration on human tissues and physiological
processes Explores mechanical vibration techniques used to improve
human performance Discusses the strong association between health
and human well-being Explores physical, mechanical, and
biomechanical aspects of vibration exposure in domains such as
sports and medicine

Analiza la crisis del modelo civilizatorio occidental, y como, este
modelo implementado desde las politicas republicanas han permeado
en los pueblos indigenas. Plantea la vision del buen vivir de los
pueblos y nacionalidades originarias de tierras altas de Bolivia,
desde las cuatro dimensiones de la chakana, Ajayu-Ser,
Yatina-Saber, Lurana-Hacer, Atina-Poder, que expresan la
Cosmovision Aymara. Finalmente propone el camino que nos llevara a
implementar el buen vivir comunitario en nuestros Pueblos, mediante
el modelo comunitario de planificacion participativa en base a
metodologias de los pueblos indigenas, respetando las
particularidades de cada pueblo para lo cual plantea la chakana
como instrumento de operativizacion del buen vivir comunitario."
