It is also essential to contribute to their improvement and social relevancy; nevertheless, the existent theoretical and methodological foundations for its development are insufficient. In this article it is presented a methodology for the management of scientific events in these institutions, which improve significantly the indicators of this process. The methodology has been applied and validated in a Cuban university, and its effectiveness was verified through the main theoretical and empiric methods of investigation used. The methodology consists of three recurrent work phases, which are: i) conception and design, ii) development iii) evaluation and feedback. In each one of them is executed several stages. It is important to specify that in each step it is necessary to use multiple management tools. The methodology improves significantly the indicators of this process, and based on the results it contributes to significant improvement of indicators related with the management of scientific events and, consequently, the social relevancy of university increases. The originality and essential values proposed are sustained in its four qualities: systemic, flexible, participation and pro-active character.

La simulacion hoy en dia es utilizada para analizar el comportamiento de los sistemas, investigando el rol de los parametros de diseno en las prestaciones del sistema. El programa de simulacion HOPSAN ha sido desarrollado en la division de hidraulica y sistemas mecanicos de la Universidad de Linkoping, Suecia desde 1977. Ha sido desde el principio un sistema para la modelacion, simulacion y analisis de sistemas hidraulicos. Los algoritmos de optimizacion que han sido implementados en HOPSAN proporcionan la posibilidad de optimizar el comportamiento del sistema, sujeto a restricciones. En el presente trabajo se simula y optimiza el sistema hidraulico de accionamiento del aparato trozador y discos de corte de la cosechadora de cana, valorandose la influencia de los pa...

Seventeen cattle farms of 8 communities were characterized to observe the characterization of the farmers, land use, use of forage banks, pasture management and bovine cattle housing. A semi-structured interview was designed to collect primary information about the problem under investigation. When characterizing the farmers, in relation to land use, previously 47.5% of the producers were engaged in agriculture, today 85.9% carry out livestock work with silvopastoral practices and only 14.1% are dedicated to agriculture. production of coffee and cocoa. Regarding the use of feed banks, 35.29% have more food for their animals and 5.88% have better environmental conditions. In addition, 77.6% of the farmers mentioned that they have improved their production with the use of the feed bank. In summary, the results indicate that small and medium producers can benefit from silvopastoral systems as an alternative to improve production and not affect the environment.

The development of the same largely certifies and determines the constant search for solutions. The main objective of the present study was to arrive at a clear conceptualization, as complete as possible, of some the most important terms that come up during an investigation design: Problematic Situation, Real Problem, Scientific Problem, and Object and Field, given the visible shortcomings observed in pre- and post-graduate theses when the research work is being developed and defended. The methodology consisted of basically developing a reflection around these terms (the vision that different authors have in this regard was very helpful), as well as the presentation of varied examples contributed to see the meaning of these important concepts more clearly. The study shows in a scientifically grounded way the achievement of the above. The way in which the presentation of the diffe...

Improvement in cut quality and raw material of the matter it prevails they are in the bibliography by means of the interventions in the crop and others practice cultural existent and of changes in the design of croppers. Devices have been developed for auxiliary to the operators in the control of the court height keeping in mind the importance of the base cut in the quality and lost of matter it prevails and in the longevity of the reed bed, the objective of this work was to validate the influence of a hydraulic device of control of the height of base court, SHC, in the quality of the base cut and its acting throughout the work day.

The dynamic coefficients were determined using a strain gauge experimental evaluation of the KTP-23 harvester, which is a similar model in structure to the CCA-5000. A finite elements analysis is used to obtain the safety distribution factor and the tensions in the beam for different load combinations linked to a dynamic variation curve of the loads. Aiming to verify the presence or not of large amplitudes on the system oscillations caused by the resonance phenomenon, an analysis of the frequency modes for each load status is conducted, and the results are compared with the terrain irregularities frequencies on which the harvester moves. Finally, taking into account the previous results, the shape of the beam is optimized in order to decrease its steel volume.

The calculations of the hydraulic systems are of great importance in the world of the design of the agricultural machinery since they serve for the correct selection of all the hydraulic devices, determination of the diameter of the pipe, etc, is for that reason that the calculations, as it regulates become in two stages: � First stage: The preliminary calculation is made (it includes the simplified static calculation and the selection of the components). � Second stage: The verification is made (it includes the modeling of the components and system with the analysis of the stationary regime and the dynamics of the system).
