ABSTRACT: There are few studies on the extraction of bioactive compounds from olive pomace by the microwave method of hydro diffusion and gravity (MHG). Therefore, this study extracted bioactive compounds from pomace by MHG using a central rotational compound (DCCR). The statistical model showed a significant difference for the variable potency (W) in the extractions of phenolic compounds, showing linear behavior. Simple linear regression analysis suggested the use of 100W of power for the extraction of phenolic compounds in olive pomace. There were no significant differences in flavonoid extractions and antioxidant capacity of the extracts, at different potencies (W) and times (min), in the olive pomace extracts. ABSTRACT MHG. .

This paper investigated the pre-concentration amenability of sovite (carbonatite) ore to enhance the grade of rare earth elements (REE) bearing minerals by rejecting calcite, and to improve total rare earth elements (TREE) recovery using gravity and magnetic separation. A high proportion of calcite affects downstream processes like leaching due to high acid consumption. Multiple flowsheets combining gravity and magnetic separation were employed to target > 60% TREEs recovery to the final concentrate and > 60% calcite rejection to the tailings. Head analysis of the feed showed the sample's main constituents as Fe (15.61%), Ca (16.04%), SiO2 (7.13%), and lastly TREEs (1.12%). Mineralogy liberation data at 2mm top size indicated poor liberation of TREEs, with the majority of minerals displaying < 30% mass greater than 80% liberated. Grain size distribution data showed that the majority of REE minerals are fine grained and report to the < 20 μm size class. Calcite liberation mineralogy showed < 60% mass greater than 80% liberation.A combination of a single-stage shaking table with a wet high intensity magnetic separator at a magnetic intensity of 7520 G was found to be the optimum flowsheet. For a shaking table feed with P80 of 150 μm followed by tails regrind to P80 of 45 μm as feed to wet high intensity magnetic separator, the overall mass balance results showed that 60.5% TREEs are recovered to the concentrate while 63.0% calcite is rejected to the tails. However, due to the fine-grained nature of TREEs, no flowsheet improved their grade.

Abstract: The research addresses the study of heat exchange between heavy crude oil and the environment during surface pumping, specifically of a crude oil with an API gravity of 17.5, under the particular atmospheric conditions of Eastern Ecuador. The main objective of the study is to evaluate the temperature loss in a 50-meter segment of SCH-80 pipe, with a diameter of 4 inches, used for the transportation of heavy crude. This aims to understand how heavy crude loses temperature and to determine the convective coefficient, knowing that the heat loss from the fluid to the environment occurs mainly by convection. This is to determine what the temperature losses will be in longer pipe sections. For this purpose, a methodology using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation was employed, a key tool for predicting the thermal behavior of crude in interaction with the environment. It was determined that the convective coefficient is 52 W/m2.K, and there is a temperature loss of 3.2 K in the 50-meter section. With this data, future research could evaluate potential heating technologies that facilitate the transport of heavy crude oil. This approach would allow for exploring innovative solutions to improve efficiency and effectiveness in managing heavy crude, facing one of the main challenges in its transport: managing its high viscosity

Resumen: La investigación aborda el estudio del intercambio de calor del crudo pesado con el ambiente en el bombeo superficial, específicamente de un crudo con gravedad API de 17.5, bajo las condiciones atmosféricas particulares del Oriente ecuatoriano. El principal objetivo del estudio es evaluar la pérdida de temperatura en un segmento de 50 metros de tubería SCH-80, con 4 pulgadas de diámetro, utilizado para el transporte de crudo pesado. Con esto se busca entender cómo el crudo pesado pierde temperatura y determinar el coeficiente convectivo sabiendo que el calor que pierde el fluido con el ambiente se da principalmente por convección. Esto permitirá determinar cuáles van a ser las pérdidas de temperatura en tramos de tubería mayores. Para ello se empleó una metodología que utiliza la simulación por dinámica de fluidos computacional (CFD), una herramienta clave para predecir el comportamiento térmico del crudo en interacción con el ambiente. Se determinó que el coeficiente convectivo es de 52 W/m2.K, y que existe una pérdida de temperatura de 3.2 K en el tramo de 50 metros. Con esta base de datos se podría en investigaciones futuras evaluar potenciales tecnologías de calefacción que faciliten el transporte del crudo pesado. Este enfoque permitiría explorar soluciones innovadoras para mejorar la eficiencia y efectividad en el manejo del crudo pesado, enfrentando uno de los principales desafíos en su transporte: la gestión de su alta viscosidad.

Abstract The objective of this research is to theoretically and empirically analyze migration from Mexico to the United States and Canada during the recent period from the point of view of Anthony Thirlwall's model (1979). The hypothesis to be evaluated is that migration flows from economies with lower income elasticity of demand for exports to economies with greater income elasticity of demand for exports, for this we have created a proxy variable of the product rate called TPNR that does not restrict growth. In addition to this, we incorporate typical covariates from the gravity models widely used in economic literature that reflect regional macroeconomic characteristics such as income level, geodesic distance, population and, as a dependent variable, unidirectional flow of people changing residence. The results confirm that the productive structure is the main reason for migration from Mexico to the United States and Canada.

Resumen La presente investigación tiene por objetivo analizar teórica y empíricamente la migración proveniente de México hacia Estados Unidos y Canadá durante el período reciente desde el punto de vista del modelo de Anthony Thirlwall (1979). La hipótesis por evaluar es que la migración fluye de las economías con menor elasticidad ingreso en la demanda de las exportaciones hacia las economías con mayor elasticidad ingreso en la demanda de exportaciones, para ello hemos creado una variable proxy de la tasa del producto que no restringe el crecimiento que hemos denominado TPNR, Además, incorporamos covariables típicas de los modelos de gravedad ampliamente utilizados en la literatura económica que reflejan características macroeconómicas regionales como el nivel de ingreso, distancia geodésica, población y, como variable dependiente, el flujo unidireccional de personas de cambian de residencia. Es un primer esfuerzo en el que realizamos las adecuaciones pertinentes para estimar variables de migraciones y las variables de Thirlwall que nos permite un mayor conocimiento de las causas de la migración mexicana a tener en cuenta para las próximas políticas migratorias, en especial, con las elecciones. Los resultados confirman que es la estructura productiva la principal razón de la migración de México a Estados Unidos y Canadá.

In the context of South Africa's water scarcity, desalination has emerged as a possible solution for coastal areas. However, the quality of the intake water for desalination is often problematic, prompting the need for pre-treatment. The aim of this study was to conduct a comparative environmental life cycle assessment (LCA) on 4 seawater filtration systems intended for the pre-treatment of a reverse osmosis desalination project. These systems were implemented in a pilot trial and are based on modern water treatment technologies, namely, granular filtration (pressure driven and gravity driven), dissolved air flotation (DAF), and ultrafiltration (UF). For all 4 systems, data were collected for both the construction and operation phases, and LCAs were performed, resulting in environmental scores that allow for comparison based on the pre-treatment of 1 kL of seawater of the same quality. The SimaPro LCA tool and the ReCiPe midpoint method were used and environmental scores were calculated for 18 impact categories, including climate change, acidification, toxicity, eutrophication, resource depletion, etc. This methodology also allowed the identification of the highest environmental burdens/scores within each system. The most significant finding is that local electricity consumption is responsible for the greatest proportion of environmental impacts. Thus, the systems consuming more energy for operating equipment such as blowers, pumps, and mixers were found to have the highest environmental burdens. Hence, the DAF system has the highest environmental scores for most impacts, followed by the single-phase gravity filtration system, then the two-phase partial pressure filtration system and finally the UF system. Therefore, focus should shift towards energy optimisation of process units, especially the rotary ones, as well as energy mitigation and recovery strategies. The use of renewable energy for pre-treatment should also be considered locally.

Abstract: Based on the observation of initial hearings in criminal courts in Mexico City and on interviews with legal practitioners, this article describes the control of police arrests from two perspectives: 1) how prosecutors narrate the detentions, and 2) how judges’ responses vary according to the type of crime. The results show that decisions are made based on typified narratives, prepared to comply with the hypothesis of flagrancy, and that the decision of illegality depends on errors in those narratives and on extra-legal factors such as the gravity of the criminal types.

Resumen: A partir de la observación de audiencias iniciales en juzgados penales de la Ciudad de México, y de entrevistas con operadores jurídicos, este artículo describe el control de las detenciones policiales desde dos perspectivas: 1) las narrativas que introducen los fiscales sobre las detenciones, y 2) la variación de la decisión de los jueces según tipos delictivos. Los resultados muestran que las decisiones se toman a partir de narrativas tipificadas, preparadas para cumplir con las hipótesis de flagrancia, y que la decisión de ilegalidad depende de errores en las narraciones y de factores extralegales como la gravedad de los tipos delictivos.

Abstract The work shows the use of wastewater by farmers for agricultural activities, its lack of treatment generates unhealthiness problems. Under this perspective, the objective of the research was to design the wastewater treatment system in the rural area of the La Pampa neighborhood of the Auquimarca annex. It is a purposeful investigation, using the Gauge Method to analyze gravity discharges and the Triangular Weir Method to determine the flow of wastewater. The composition of the wastewater for the treatment system was verified, including: hydrogen potential, resulting in 8.4 (acidic pH < 7, and basic medium pH > 7 alkaline), as a product of the study it is recommended to implement the design of treatment, based on the Imhoff tank sizing.

Resumen El trabajo muestra el uso de aguas residuales por campesinos para actividades agrícolas, su tratamiento nulo genera problemas de insalubridad.

Es una investigación propositiva, empleando el Método de aforo para analizar las descargas por gravedad y Método del Vertedero-Triangular para determinar el caudal del agua residual. Se verificó la composición del agua residual para el sistema de tratamiento entre ellos: potencial de hidrógeno, dando como resultado 8.4 (acido pH < 7, y medio básico pH > 7 alcalino), como producto del estudio se recomienda implementar el diseño de tratamiento, tomando como base el dimensionamiento de tanque Imhoff.

Different concentration techniques were evaluated for preconcentration of a mineral ore at a coarser size to avoid energy and resource wastage. Specifically, the aim was to reduce milling costs and energy required in the beneficiation of tin. In this study, cassiterite (0.17% Sn) was the mineral of interest in a pegmatite ore body associated with quartz (SiO2 > 60%) and alumina (Al2O3 > 20%). Three concentration techniques, namely dense media, shaking table, and flotation, coupled with characterization analysis, were used to assess the concentration response. The results confirmed that particle size and mineral liberation impact the separation process. High recovery and grade were obtained with gravity concentration methods (dense media and shaking table) for coarser (+300 to +212 μm) and intermediate (+150 to +53 μm) particle sizes. Lower recovery and grade were identified for much finer sizes (-53 to -38 μm). Flotation produced a high-grade product at a relatively low recovery and appeared to be only applicable to finer grains. Separation efficiency based on Schulz's equation measured a segregation performance of 74.8% for dense medium separation and 60.7% for the shaking table for the coarse and intermediate particle sizes. Flotation only achieved a separation of 30%-40%. The results suggest that use of dense media separation as a rough preconcentration method prior to further grinding, and the utilization of a more advanced concentration technique for mineral recovery and upgrade, constitute a successful approach to improve process economics.

Abstract The aim of the work presented was the design of a metal mould for gravity die casting to obtain brake and clutch handles of aluminium alloys for Suzuki AX-100 motorbike. The maximum stresses to which the part is subjected were determined and evaluated by the finite element method, considering the composition of the existing raw materials, highlighting that the part obtained meets the strength requirements. The results of the simulations showed that the strength was sufficient, and so the design of the metal mould was started. For its design, an established methodology was used, with the Fourier-Kirchhoff models for the thermal regime, resulting in its dimensions. In turn, both filling and solidification were simulated by means of casting software, predicting the thermodynamic behavior and the transient phenomena of the fluid during the pouring process. Positive values were obtained for microporosity, Niyama criterion, flow velocity and solid evolution. The results allowed us to ensure that both the design and the operation of the mould guarantee the production of productive and defect-free handles.

Para su diseño se empleó una metodología establecida, con los modelos de Fourier-Kirchhoff para el régimen térmico, resultando en las dimensiones de este. A su vez se simuló por medio de software de fundición tanto el llenado como la solidificación, pronosticando los comportamientos termodinámicos y los fenómenos transitorios del fluido durante el proceso de vertido. Se obtuvieron valores positivos para la microporosidad, criterio de Niyama, velocidad del flujo y, evolución del sólido. Los resultados permiten asegurar que tanto el diseño como el funcionamiento del molde garantizan la obtención de manillas de forma productiva y libres de defectos.

Abstract The cultivation of avocado (Persea Americana) is not only essential from an economic point of view, but also plays a crucial role in the nutrition, health and well-being of populations around the world. The study was carried out in Ayacucho -Peru (latitude: 12° 53' 57'' S, longitude: 74° 16' 55'' W and altitude: 2596 masl), with the objective of evaluating the effect of the use of the technical drip irrigation system on the production and yield of two varieties of avocado, Hass and Fuerte. The study was based on the use of an irrigation system with programming by treatment with avocado plants installed in plots of 500 m² in 6 sectors, with a density of 5 x 5 m, whose age was between 5 to 16 years, of the which were considered 12 plants (6 plants with drip irrigation and 6 plants as a control with gravity irrigation). Irrigation was carried out right at the flowering and production stage, guaranteeing adequate water supply in periods of water deficit, between February and June 2022. The experimental design was a complete randomized block, with six blocks of 20 plants each. The harvest carried out reported yields of 67.96 ± 8.8 t/ha under technical irrigation and 26.42 ± 4.93 t/ha under gravity irrigation, an increase of 157% with respect to the latter. As for the varieties, the Fuerte avocado had the highest yield 49.38 ± 23.06 t/ha compared to the Hass variety (45.0 ± 21.14 t/ha), the maximum yield occurred with drip irrigation for the Fuerte variety (71.09 ± 8.38 t/ha), this is explained by the energy expenditure in the osmotic adjustment potential which drastically decreases the yield potential with traditional gravity irrigation, obtaining a minimum yield in Hass of 25.18 ± 4.44 t/ha.

Resumen El cultivo de palta (Persea americana) no solo es esencial desde el punto de vista económico, sino que también desempeña un papel crucial en la alimentación, la salud y el bienestar de las poblaciones en todo el mundo. El estudio se realizó en Ayacucho-Perú (latitud: 12° 53’ 57’’ S, longitud: 74° 16’ 55’’ O y altitud: 2596 msnm), con el objetivo de evaluar el efecto de la utilización del sistema de riego tecnificado por goteo en la producción y rendimiento de dos variedades de palta, Hass y Fuerte. El estudio estuvo basado en el uso de un sistema de riego con programación por tratamiento con plantas de palta instaladas en parcelas de 500 m² en 6 sectores, con una densidad de 5 x 5 m, cuya edad estuvo entre 5 a 16 años, de las cuales se consideró 12 plantas (6 plantas con riego por goteo y 6 plantas como testigo con riego por gravedad). Los riegos se efectuaron justo en la etapa de floración y producción garantizando el suministro de agua adecuado en periodos de déficit hídrico, entre febrero a junio de 2022. El diseño experimental fue de bloques completos al azar, con seis bloques de 20 plantas cada uno. La cosecha realizada reporto rendimientos 67,96 ± 8,8 t/ha bajo riego tecnificado y de 26,42 ± 4,93 t/ha en riego por gravedad, siendo un incremento del 157% con respecto a este último. En cuanto a las variedades, la palta Fuerte tuvo el mayor rendimiento 49,38 ± 23,06 t/ha con respecto a la variedad Hass (45,0 ± 21,14 t/ha), el rendimiento máximo se dio con riego por goteo para a variedad Fuerte (71,09 ± 8,38 t/ha), esto es explicado por el gasto de energía en el potencial de ajuste osmótico la cual disminuye drásticamente el potencial de rendimiento con riego tradicional por gravedad, obteniendo un rendimiento mínimo en Hass de 25,18 ± 4,44 t/ha.

Resumen Dentro de las estructuras de retención o contención, usadas ampliamente en la infraestructura vial, existe una gama amplia de posibilidades, como son las estructuras de gravedad convencionales (gaviones, criba, etc.), reforzadas, embebidas, anclajes, suelo estabilizado mecánicamente, entre otras. Dentro de ellas también, se encuentran las bolsas gigantes de geotextil, las cuales funcionan por gravedad usando material de relleno del sitio y demostrando un buen rendimiento ante la protección contra la erosión fluvial, marítima y en obras de protección o de contención para vías. Este artículo presenta la versatilidad de las bolsas gigantes de geotextil en la infraestructura vial, en la estabilización de terraplenes, taludes; y control de erosión fluvial y costera. Se presenta como estudio de caso a la zona de Bengala (kilómetro 21 de la vía Garzón - Neiva) y Túnel de Crespo (Cartagena - Colombia). La metodología utilizada para evaluar la evolución de la mejora con la intervención de bolsas gigantes de geotextil se realiza mediante el reporte de diseño, ejecución, seguimiento y control de la geometría del sitio de estudio. Las zonas intervenidas con bolsas de geotextil gigante presentan un comportamiento efectivo en la estabilidad del terreno, en el control de erosión y en la recuperación geométrica. A nivel cualitativo se logra evidenciar el proceso de restauración y estabilización de la costa y talud afectados, gracias a la intervención con bolsas de geotextil gigantes. A nivel cuantitativo se aprecia la estabilidad a largo plazo y la recuperación geométrica de las zonas intervenidas.

Abstract Between retaining structures, widely used in road infrastructure, there is a wide range of possibilities: conventional gravity structures (gabions, screens, etc.), reinforced, embedded, anchors, mechanically stabilized soil, among others. Among them, there is also the giant geotextile bags, which work by gravity using fill material from the site and demonstrating good performance against fluvial and maritime erosion, and road protection or containment. This article presents the versatility of giant geotextile bags in road infrastructure, embankment or slope stabilization; and river and coastal erosion control. As a case study, the Bengala (kilometer 21 of the Garzón - Neiva road) and Crespo Tunnel (Cartagena - Colombia) are presented. The methodology used to evaluate the evolution of the improvement with the intervention of giant geotextile bags is done through the report of design, execution, follow-up and control of the geometry of the intervened site. The areas intervened with giant geotextile bags show an effective behavior in soil stability, erosion control and geometric recovery. At a qualitative level, the process of restoration and stabilization of the affected coast and slope is evident, thanks to the intervention with giant geotextile bags. At a quantitative level, the long-term stability and geometric recovery of the intervened areas can be appreciated.

Resumen En la exploración geofísica, el análisis del terreno es fundamental para planificar la adquisición de datos de gravimetría y magnetometría. No obstante, en la actualidad dichos análisis requieren el uso supervisado de información secundaria extensa. Por este motivo, en este estudio se propone una metodología que utiliza el aprendizaje profundo para evaluar el impacto de la cobertura vegetal y la topografía en la adquisición geofísica. Se usó una red neuronal artificial perceptrón multicapa para considerar cinco variables terrestres, y una red neural convolucional para la clasificación automatizada de coberturas vegetales sobre imágenes satelitales. A partir de esto, se obtuvieron puntos para la localización de estaciones de levantamiento geofísico que cumplen con un criterio de favorabilidad por accesibilidad, distancias, restricciones por cuerpos de agua y coberturas boscosas. La geometría obtenida se evaluó en la exploración del Granito de Durania en Colombia, y los resultados se analizaron utilizando transectas de adquisición y modelado computacional de anomalías magnéticas y de gravedad. Finalmente, se aplicaron técnicas de interpolación donde el método Ponderación de Distancia Inversa (IDW) mostró la mejor imagen para interpretar la delimitación del cuerpo intrusivo.

Abstract In geophysical exploration, terrain analysis is fundamental for planning the gravity and magnetic surveys. However, current analyses necessitate supervised use of extensive secondary information. Consequently, this study proposes a methodology that leverages deep learning to assess the impact of vegetation coverage and topography in geophysical acquisition. An artificial neural network multilayer perceptron was used to consider five terrain-related variables, while a convolutional neural network is used for automated classification of vegetation cover on satellite imagery. From this, geophysical acquisition points are obtained, adhering to criteria involving accessibility favourability, distances, restrictions imposed by bodies of water, and forested cover. The obtained geometry was tested in the exploration of the Granito de Durania in Colombia, and the results were analysed using acquisition transects and computational modelling of gravity and magnetic anomalies. Interpolation techniques were applied, with the Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) method yielding the most informative map for interpreting the delineation of the intrusive body.

Resumen Se llevó a cabo un estudio de gravimetría y magnetometría en la zona de influencia del volcán Puracé y la cadena volcánica de Los Coconucos (Colombia), con el fin de obtener dos modelos geofísicos 2D de las principales estructuras geológicas presentes en el área estudiada. En 2017 se midieron 272 puntos con datos de gravimetría, magnetometría y coordenadas con el Sistema Global de Navegación por Satélite (GNSS por sus siglas en inglés) en la zona mencionada, condicionada por su topografía montañosa, vegetación densa de bosque alto andino y vías de difícil acceso. A partir de las anomalías gravimétricas y magnéticas obtenidas y con la información geológica disponible, se formularon dos modelos 2D con base en dos perfiles, uno paralelo al trazo del Lineamiento Coconucos y el otro perpendicular al primero, ambos pasando por el cono activo del volcán Puracé. La interpretación de estos modelos, en conjunto con la geología de la zona, permitieron modelar cuerpos que se proponen como las estructuras internas de la caldera de Chagartón, de los volcanes Pre-Puracé y el Puracé Actual y parte de las cámaras magmáticas de los otros centros eruptivos de la cadena volcánica de Los Coconucos. Estas estructuras volcánicas al parecer están separadas por límites o zonas de debilidad que sugieren fallas en profundidad por donde se emplazaron dichos cuerpos de magma. La configuración interna del volcán Puracé y los centros eruptivos cercanos, propuesta en este trabajo, también proporciona información importante para la interpretación de la evolución de la Cadena Volcánica de Los Coconucos.

Abstract A gravimetry and magnetometry study was performed in the Puracé volcano and Los Coconucos volcanic chain (Colombia) influence zone, in order to obtain two 2D geophysical models of the main geological structures beneath of the studied area. During 2017, 272 points were measured, with data of gravimetry, magnetometry and coordinates with the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), the field work was conditioned by the mountainous topography, dense high Andean forest vegetation and difficult access roads. Founded on the gravity and magnetic anomalies and with the available geological information, two 2D models were formulated with two profiles, one parallel to Coconucos Lineament and the other perpendicular to the first, both passing through the active cone of the Puracé volcano. The interpretation of these models, together with the geology of the area, allowed the modeling of bodies that are proposed as the internal structures of the Chagartón caldera, the Pre-Puracé and Actual Puracé volcanoes, and part of the magmatic chambers of the other eruptive centers of the Los Coconucos volcanic chain. These volcanic structures are apparently separated by limits or zones of weakness that suggest faults in depth and where these magma bodies were emplaced. The internal configuration of the Puracé volcano and the nearby eruptive centers, proposed in this work, also provides important information for the interpretation of the evolution of the Los Coconucos Volcanic Chain.

Abstract A kitagohaite grain, measuring approximately 1.0 mm, was retrieved from an alluvial gold gravity concentrate from the southeastern Quadrilátero Ferrífero (QFe), Mariana, Brazil. The grain exhibits a cubic structure, whitish-steel-gray, and has a metallic luster. It is composed of Wt. 94.42% Pt and 5.56% Cu (n=9), yielding the empirical formula Pt6.78Cu1.22. This groundbreaking discovery marks the first documented occurrence of kitagohaite in South America.

This article deals with the problematic praxis of life in the Anthropocene amidst the urgent calls for environmental justice. Normally, people are confused and misled by this concept due to a political ringtone. However, the article argues that justice or righteousness should always be integral to a faith community's outlook on life. Among numerous other ministry manifestations, liturgical praxeology offers unique opportunities to establish a deep-rooted liturgical ethos. Contemplation about the harmful effects of injustices on a meaningful life provides the opportunity to reconsider how liturgy can enhance or ameliorate a liturgical ethos grounded in moral principles. The concept of ethos touches on the persuasive or performative essence of liturgical enactment. If this is the case, surely a hunger for destruction, wars, and devastating acts that limit opportunities for a liveable life in the environment should be considered essential. The liturgical ethos must remind people to remember the precious memories of what should be done regarding righteousness (justice) and wardship. In laying the foundation for a deep-rooted ethos, responsibility takes centre stage. Faith communities, by emphasizing this sense of responsibility, can contribute towards a renewed hunger for justice and righteousness in their environments. The research question guiding this exploration is articulated as follows: How can liturgical ethos, with explicit reference to anamnesis and its convergence with the gravity of environmental justice, contribute to fostering responsibility for the environment among participants of the liturgy? This question is addressed through a qualitative literature study. Browning (1996:34), for example, is interested in practical wisdom's (phronesis) purpose of understanding human action and defines a research activity as a process that starts with a description and then moves to the endeavour of systemization. Eventually, strategizing perspectives will offer liturgical perspectives on a liturgical ethos or praxeology that could promote moral responsibility among the liturgy participants.
