Assessing the cross-scale impact of 50 years of agricultural transformation in Argentina
(Elsevier Science, 2011-11)
Given the increasing number of actors related to farming that make decisions at different scales (plot, farm, region, etc.), knowledge about patterns and processes that behave hierarchically is increasingly needed. This ...
An objective multi-scale model with hybrid injection
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018-02)
This paper presents a new semi-concurrent multi-scale model to study the behaviour of composite materials in softening regime. A mixed formulation is used to simulate discontinuities in both scales. The traction over the ...
Water use in rain-fed farming at different scales in the Pampas of Argentina
(Elsevier, 2012-06)
Water use in farming will be an issue of increasing global concern since competition for freshwater among sectors will grow, especially in a water-scarce scenario. Understanding how farming system configurations at different ...
Scale dependency of Liolaemus lizards' home range in response to different environmental variables
(Oxford University Press, 2016-12-01)
Animal habitat-use patterns cannot be isolated from scale issues. Consequently, multi-scale studies provide a complete characterization of ecological patterns that can further explain the observed variation. Liolaemus ...
A FE 2 multi-scale implementation for modeling composite materials on distributed architectures
(Techno-Press, 2019-04)
This work investigates the accuracy and performance of a FE2 multi-scale implementation used to predict the behavior of composite materials. The equations are formulated assuming the small deformations solid mechanics ...
Economies of scale in Peru’s water and sanitation sector
(Springer New York LLC, 2016-04)
This paper quantifies economies of scale in Peru’s water and sanitation (W&S) sector based on a five-year panel (2006–2010) that examines 39 water services providers. Our findings highlight the lack of economies of scale ...
Validation of the Low Self-Control Scale Spanish Version: a bifactor model approach
(Taylor & Francis Online, 2020-06-30)
General Theory of Crime has considered low self-control as the main cause of crime, and the Low Self-Control Scale (LSCS) is the tool derived from this theory to measure it. However, a debate exists about self-control ...

Scales, inequalities, and elites in Latin America
(International Sociological Association, 2021-04)
No scholarly innovations in the study of elites have accompanied this wave of criticism. In his review of the state-of-the-art literature, Shamus Khan warns of the "faddish" nature of these debates. The first obstacle to ...
