- Metodología para el análisis espacial. Una aproximación hacia las investigaciones de diseño(Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana (México). Unidad Azcapotzalco., 2019-12-10) Sánchez Carmona, María LucíaCuando se lleva a cabo el análisis espacial para un proyecto específico, el investigador se enfrenta a varios retos; entre ellos: la delimitación del objeto o área de estudios, la elección de la metodología, el uso de algún(os) software para el procesamiento de datos y la representación de los resultados. El análisis espacial tiene como objetivo generar un vínculo entre el análisis de datos con una referencia geográfica; es decir, con una localización exacta en el territorio. Para el caso particular de la representación de datos, los mapas son una herramienta fundamental para la presentación de resultados sobre todo en los proyectos urbanos porque combinan diversos datos espaciales con múltiples datos a través de una representación gráfica. Los mapas temáticos son los más utilizados porque son representaciones gráficas de la realidad y además permiten localizar características de un objeto o fenómeno.
- Visualización de información para generar una cultura sísmica en la ciudad de México(Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana (México). Unidad Azcapotzalco. Coordinación de Servicios de Información., 2018) Espinoza De Los Monteros Espinoza, Victor ManuelLa presente investigación busca favorecer la creación de una cultura de prevención de desastres sísmicos considerando la amenaza inminente que representa la Brecha Sísmica de Guerrero para nuestro país, la cual es monitoreada por el Sistema de Alerta Sísmica (S.A.S.), si bien existen más amenazas de este tipo solo esta es monitoreada por este innovador sistema mexicano, lo cual se expone en el primer capítulo de este trabajo. En el segundo capítulo se exponen aquellas maniobras que pueden favorecer a que las personas salven la vida en caso de padecer los afectos del impacto de un sismo de gran escala, para tales efectos se analiza la corporeidad, la motricidad y la inteligencia como punto de partida para definir cómo es que las personas asimilan y asumen este tipo de conocimientos para poder definir aquellas estrategias que pueden coadyuvar a que la creación de una cultura sísmica sea viable, considerando todos los factores relevantes que pueden influir en el diseño de las estrategias aquí planteadas para logar estos objetivos. En la tercera parte de este escrito se estudia la tecnología educativa, la teoría de la comunicación, tres tipos de aprendizaje y la teoría de la información para poder definir cómo es que el uso de las Tecnologías de la Información y la Comunicación pueden favorecer a que nuevos cuerpos de conocimiento sean adquiridos y tomar las mejores decisiones en caso de padecer un desastre que ponga en riesgo la vida. Por último, se expone la propuesta de diseño desarrollada para poder generar una cultura de prevención de desastres sísmicos a partir de las herramientas gráficas planteadas para llevar a cabo una estrategia que favorezca a generar una comunidad de voluntarios que difundan las maniobras básicas para salvar la vida en caso de sismos y que aspiren a ser rescatistas certificados en un futuro.
- Confort respiratorio en zonas de altura(Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana (México). Unidad Azcapotzalco. Coordinación de Servicios de Información., 2012-12) JORDAN URIOSTE, MARIA DEL CARMEN VALENTINAIndoor air quality is associated with the purity of exterior air, which may be contaminated to various degrees depending on the environment and other local factors such as wind or other possible sources of pollution. In cities or settlements at high altitudes, the quality of exterior air is further compounded by the relative lack of oxygen; therefore the air quality in high altitude may not be limited to the degree of pollution of the atmosphere but should relate it to the amount of oxygen therein. Because the atmospheric pressure decreases with altitude increase, the amount of oxygen at high altitude is significantly lower than at sea level and this means that the human body faces a certain degree of metabolic stress in order to maintain its normal functions. Recent studies have shown important physiological differences between i) indigenous populations, that have lived in these conditions for generations, ii) lifelong highland residents (only first generation) and iii) acclimatized newcomers. In all these groups, the organisms are exposed to a similar degree of hypoxygenation (reduced oxygen concentration), and for all these individuals exposure to an indoor atmosphere enriched with oxygen can improve comfort and even prevent diseases that occur as a consequence of living in these habitats. In nature, all oxygen in the atmosphere is constantly being produced through the process of plant photosynthesis and algae are a very important part of the oxygen-generating ecosystem. These organisms are currently being studied for their efficiency in the production of biomass, which can be used as a possible source of renewable energy, nutritional source or medical products. In addition, they are increasingly seen as environmental purification agents because they are able to use the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and they also can grow and develop in human or industrial waste. Taking into account the fact that at high altitude vegetation is sparse, this project studies the possibility of improving indoor air quality through enriching it by biogenic oxygen production by microalgae. The project also assesses the possible uses of biomass and the potential resulting environmental benefit. To provide perspective and detailed information about the current level of knowledge about this topic, an extensive literature review was performed both on the different aspects relating to the cultivation of microalgae and on defining various aspects describing the comfort and welfare of human beings in high altitude areas. Assuming the percentage of oxygen required for an oxygen enrichment of the air, based on calculations of air renewal, we have determined the amount of oxygen needed to enrich the indoor air of a school in the city of La Paz, Bolivia. From these data and correlating with the information found in the specialized literature, it was calculated the culture volume of microalgae that would be required to produce, through photosynthetic activity, the necessary amount of oxygen to replenish and maintain the increased the enriched environment. Although the resulting volume of photobioreactors is too large to implement it, there is little doubt that the proposed system can help alleviate at least some of the shortcomings that people at high altitude suffer, shortcomings that are likely to escalate with the increase in number and density of these populations. The approach described in this study could also be developed in alternative ways, through the use of the system in an integrated manner, such that a certain level of oxygen enrichment results from the repeated recirculation of air across the microalgae culture. The system described here could also benefit from an increase in the scale of implementation though its use in an industrial environment that produces higher levels of atmospheric pollution. Such industries would benefit from providing the means to absorb the excess carbon dioxide while producing increased levels of oxygen. One potential advantage of an industrial setup is the possibility of constructing and using the large bioreactors required by these processes. One of the highlights of this project is the realization that the microalgae are extremely versatile and their cultivation can offer certain clear benefits to several types of human populations, but especially to those living in high altitude areas as microalgae can not only improve the quality of air and reduce pollution, but can also provide nutritional support and even used as biofuels.
- Caracterización bioclimática de la vivienda tradicional de la sierra Otomí-Tepehua(Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana (México). Unidad Azcapotzalco. Coordinación de Servicios de Información., 2013-08) GONZALEZ ROSALES, ADRIANThis work registers the history and traditional architecture of the so known Sierra Otomí.-Tepehua region. Also, there is a record of the environment, analyzing the weather conditions in order to determine two issues: first, locate the classification of the mesoclimate which correspond to this mountain range; besides of the particular bio-weathers, based on the parameters of the KöppenGarcía modified system used for Mexico. And in second place, confront one by one the characteristic features of each meso-weather, in order to find out the main climatologic parameters. With that fundament, an explanation of the relation between the architecture and the natural environment is given, relating specific adaptations in rain water control and to thermal control. For the first case, the list of control elements are detailed, such as decks, eaves, drains, and corridors; and for the second case, a thermal analysis was done, in order to find the thermic properties of building materials and systems used, resulting in isolation as an essential strategy for the thermal comfort.
