Limiting Weapons: Crafting International Nuclear Nonproliferation Standards from Latin America

Foro Internacional, 2019
After the nuclear bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and the Cuban Missile Crisis, the countries in Latin America created a communal framework for nuclear security and a nuclear-free zone through the Tlatelolco Treaty. Mexico, a middle power, emerged as

Improving the Structural Reliability of Steel Frames Using Posttensioned Connections

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
In this paper, various moment‐resisting steel frames (MRSFs) are subjected to 30 narrow‐band motions scaled at different ground motion intensity levels in terms of spectral acceleration at first mode of vibration Sa(T1) in order to perform incremental dynamic analysis for peak and residual interstory drift demands.

A comparison of contributions from the Aztec cities of Tlatelolco and Tenochtitlan to the bird chapter of the Florentine Codex

Huitzil, 2017
The Florentine Codex is a Renaissance-era illuminated manuscript that contains the earliest-known regional work on the birds of México. Its Nahuatl language texts and scholia (the latter later incorporated into its Spanish texts) were written in the ...

Sino‐Mexican Encounters Before the ‘Diplomatic Opening’: Exhibition Diplomacy and Grassroots Friendship in the 1960s

History, EarlyView.
Abstract During the 1960s, Mexico's Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) embraced Chinese overtures for a commercial opening as consistent with its anti‐imperialist posture, thereby foreshadowing the diplomatic opening to China in 1972. Yet this professed ideological pluralism was eclipsed by an underlying allegiance to the United States' anti ...

Evaluation of the Response of Posttensioned Steel Frames with Energy Dissipators Using Equivalent Single‐Degree‐of‐Freedom Systems

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
The hysteretic energy (EH) dissipated in posttensioned steel frames (PTSF) with hysteretic dampers is calculated by using equivalent single‐degree‐of‐freedom systems (ESDOFS), where the nonlinearity of both the steel bars (beam and columns) and the connections of the structural frame is separately considered.

Humanism at the Council of Constance. Diego de Anaya, Classical Manuscripts and Education in Salamanca

Renaissance Studies, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 469-488, June 2026.
Abstract Due to their prolonged and multicultural nature, councils functioned historically as hubs for the exchange of ideas, discourse, diplomacy and rhetoric, reflecting broader cultural trends. In the Middle Ages, no international forums were comparable to ecumenical councils, where diverse and influential groups from various regions convened to ...

The Discolouration of Human Teeth from Archaeological Contexts: Elemental Analysis of a Black Tooth from a Roman Cranium Recovered from the River Witham, Lincoln, UK

Journal of Anthropology, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
A human cranium was recovered from the River Witham, Lincoln, UK, at Stamp End Lock during a police operation in 2002. Although extensive trauma was noted, the skull was not of forensic interest since radiocarbon dating revealed that the individual had lived during the Roman occupation of Lincoln, almost 2,000 years ago.

Reduction of Maximum and Residual Drifts on Posttensioned Steel Frames with Semirigid Connections

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
The aim of this paper is to study the seismic performance of self‐centering moment‐resisting steel frames with posttensioned connections taking into account nonlinear material behavior, for better understanding of the advantages of this type of structural system.
