Sustainability analysis of the tourism system in El Capulín community, Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve

2025-08-19T14:57:56+00:00

The construction of indicators allows us to detect critical points of the analyzed system, to detect causes and provide solutions. In the tourism area, the indicators are limited, although their application helps to quantify the functioning of the destination and generate strategies that benefit those involved. The objective of this research was to carry out an analysis of the sustainability of producers in El Capulín community using indicators in dimensions; economic, social and environmental with the purpose of generating a baseline in the sustainable area, which serves for rural development, supported under the Framework for the Evaluation of Natural Resource Management Systems incorporating Sustainability Indicators. A structured survey was designed, referring to tourist activity, applied with intentional sampling to 63 ejidatarios. The statistical analysis generated six indicators in the economic dimension, six environmental and ten social, the evaluation of the system allowed us to know that the PSTP group has 65.03% sustainability, while the PSTM group has 85.25%, the interaction in the system showed that Tourism is not an economic activity that provides a good quality of life to those interested, therefore, increase your knowledge as a strategy to improve your performance and skills.

Interaction between interior space and environment: Current research and trends evaluation

2025-07-29T15:39:12+00:00

Interior space is where individuals live, interact with their immediate environment, and carry out their daily activities. Individuals can only meet their social, psychological, and physiological needs in spaces designed accordingly. The adaptation of living spaces to individuals depends directly on their relationship and interaction with the interior space and its environment. Therefore, the interior space in which an individual lives cannot be considered independently of its surroundings. This study examines the interaction between interior space, individuals, and their immediate environment, focusing on the contribution and significance of the environment in the design of space. To achieve this objective, a bibliometric analysis method will be employed. Existing literature on space design and environmental interaction will be systematically reviewed, analyzing academic publications, citation networks, and thematic trends. This analysis will identify key contributions to the role of the immediate environment in space design, emerging research areas, and gaps in current knowledge. By adopting this methodological approach, the study provides a comprehensive, data-driven perspective that better understands the dynamics between interior spaces, individuals, and their environment.

Artificial intelligence system based on a dynamic rule-based engine operated on a database

We present a proposal for the development of a rule handler, applicable to filtering, diagnostic, or decision-making systems. This proposal allows the management of simple or complex rules, including: database query operations, arithmetic operations, and relational operators. It accepts conjunctive and disjunctive rules. A small language is created to represent rules, which are stored in a database and can therefore grow dynamically. The handler is used as a tool for other developments that require this functionality, and the final product is a library in PHP.

Creep strain behaviour under seismic loads in reinforced concrete silos at high temperatures

2025-06-18T15:57:03+00:00

This study investigates the creep behavior of a typical concentric conical hopper concrete silo used in Guerrero, Mexico, at high temperatures, comparing its response under static and seismic loading conditions. Primary creep deformation over 210 days was analyzed using the Time-Hardening Law, followed by a 20-year secondary creep analysis using Norton’s Power Law. Seismic loads were simulated through time-history analysis using a synthetic acceleration signal. The results, along with the comparison between seismic and non-seismic scenarios, highlight the significant influence of seismic events on long-term creep deformation and stress redistribution in concrete silos, with implications for the design and maintenance of these structures in seismically active regions.

Personalized educational video games: Keys to success in the classroom

2025-06-18T15:14:04+00:00

This research explores strategies to adapt educational video games for primary school students with diverse abilities, aiming to enhance their learning experiences and achievements. The mixed-methods study involved 25 students from Saudi Arabian primary schools and compared the effectiveness of adaptive learning algorithms and differentiated instructional strategies. Results showed that adaptive educational games increased student engagement and comprehension, attributed to factors like enthusiasm, graphics, and immediate feedback. Concerns included technical issues, stability, and lack of clear instructions. The findings align with previous research, emphasizing the positive impact of personalized game-based learning environments on student motivation and academic outcomes. The study offers valuable insights for educators and policymakers seeking to implement adaptive educational games effectively in primary education.
