This paper presents an integrated model for seismic events detection in Colombia using machine learning techniques. Machine learning is used to identify P-wave windows in historic records and hence detect seismic events. The proposed model has five modules that group the basic detection system procedures: the seeking, gathering, and storage seismic data module, the reading of seismic records module, the analysis of seismological stations module, the sample selection module, and the classification process module. An explanation of each module is given in conjunction with practical recommendations for its implementation. The resulting model allows understanding the integration of the phases required for the design and development of an offline seismic event detection system.

An analysis of seismic signals captured in three stations of the network of accelerographs of the Colombian Geological Service (SGC, by its acronym in Spanish) was developed for the city of San Jose de Cucuta, Colombia. Earthquake Equivalent, Response Analysis (EERA) and DEGTRA4 software were used for analysis, processing and calculation of signal response spectra during the characterization and propagation modelling of the signal by profiles. For the accelerograms family, a normalization factor computed with respect to the Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) was obtained by superposition against the typical design spectrum of the Colombian earthquake resistant code (NSR10). It was found that there is a band of frequencies above the maximum acceleration zone of the design spectrum of the current standard. This suggests a revision of the seismic threat of the city of Cucuta and the urgent need to develop the seismic microzoning, which would allow a substantial reduction of the seismic risk.

High-plasticity clays can be stabilized by the addition of a small percentage of sodium silicate. Sixteen mixtures of 4000 g with different concentrations of sodium silicate at difference percentage were designed, to which were carried out physical, mechanical and chemical characterization tests that allowed to analyze the behavior at intervals of time. Physical, mechanical and chemical properties of the soil were evaluated. Using stabilization with sodium silicate in high plasticity clays, changes in the physical, mechanical, and chemical parameters of the soil were achieved. Having satisfactory results with 3% saturation, optimal concentration, at time intervals of 2 days and 1 month; Then as time passes the soil tries to return to its initial properties, which establishes that the concentration of the Silicate and its effect on the physical and mechanical properties of the soil should be checked over a longer time interval. Studying the physical, mechanical, and chemical parameters of high plasticity clays by adding multiples mixtures of sodium silicate contributes to the understanding of the soil behavior on the pressure condition.

Background: The rapid expansion of dengue, Zika and chikungunya with large scale outbreaks are an increasing public health concern in many countries. Additionally, the recent coronavirus pandemic urged the need to get connected for fast information transfer and exchange. As response, health programmes have -among other interventions- incorporated digital tools such as mobile phones for supporting the control and prevention of infectious diseases. However, little is known about the benefits of mobile phone technology in terms of input, process and outcome dimensions. The purpose of this scoping review is to analyse the evidence of the use of mobile phones as an intervention tool regarding the performance, acceptance, usability, feasibility, cost and effectiveness in dengue, Zika and chikungunya control programmes. Methods: We conducted a scoping review of studies and reports by systematically searching: i) electronic databases (PubMed, PLOS ONE, PLOS Neglected Tropical Disease, LILACS, WHOLIS, ScienceDirect and Google scholar), ii) grey literature, using Google web and iii) documents in the list of references of the selected papers. Selected studies were categorized using a pre-determined data extraction form. Finally, a narrative summary of the evidence related to general characteristics of available mobile health tools and outcomes was produced. Results: The systematic literature search identified 1289 records, 32 of which met the inclusion criteria and 4 records from the reference lists. A total of 36 studies were included coming from twenty different countries. Five mobile phone services were identified in this review: mobile applications (n = 18), short message services (n=7), camera phone (n = 6), mobile phone tracking data (n = 4), and simple mobile communication (n = 1). Mobile phones were used for surveillance, prevention, diagnosis, and communication demonstrating good performance, acceptance and usability by users, as well as feasibility of mobile phone under real life conditions and effectiveness in terms of contributing to a reduction of vectors/ disease and improving users-oriented behaviour changes. It can be concluded that there are benefits for using mobile phones in the fight against arboviral diseases as well as other epidemic diseases. Further studies particularly on acceptance, cost and effectiveness at scale are recommended.
