La integración de la arquitectura bioclimática y la neuroarquitectura en entornos educativos como la Universidad de Guayaquil busca mitigar el estrés y mejorar el bienestar cognitivo, especialmente en estudiantes con trastornos psicosensoriales y del espectro autista. El diseño de espacios que aprovechan la luz natural, el contacto activo con áreas verdes y paletas cromáticas suaves —como el blanco, azul y verde— ha demostrado una disminución del 65% en las alteraciones sensoriales y un aumento del 50% en la concentración académica. Complementariamente, el urbanismo táctico se propone como una herramienta de planificación sostenible y participativa en sectores vulnerables de Guayaquil, como Mapasingue, para transformar espacios degradados mediante intervenciones de bajo costo. Aunque existe una brecha en la literatura empírica local, la convergencia de estos enfoques subraya que el diseño físico, basado en evidencia sensorial y participación ciudadana, es fundamental para promover la salud mental, la eficiencia energética y la cohesión social en el desarrollo urbano contemporáneo

The Edwards Deming magazine, covering July to December 2025, highlights the diversity and depth of the topics covered in the articles. This volume explores everything from consumer rights violations in the electricity service in Guayaquil to the analysis of sound frequencies and their application in resonance and vibrational medicine. It also includes technological innovations such as the design of UV-C lamps for water disinfection in rural communities and the use of TED platforms to encourage participation in higher education. In addition, it analyzes applications of stress and strain in vehicles to improve automotive safety, as well as data mining applied to student segmentation. The comparison of properties between low- and high-carbon steels highlights the relevance of material composition in various industrial applications. This volume reflects a commitment to multidisciplinary research and the practical application of knowledge to address contemporary problems, highlighting the potential impact of this research on improving quality of life and technological advancement.

The first issue of the 2025 edition of the journal “Edwards Deming” presents research covering various fields of study, highlighting the importance of sound frequencies and their application in multiple disciplines. An interdisciplinary analysis of the concept of frequency is carried out, covering its mathematical definition and its role in acoustics, medicine, electronics, physics, and astronomy. Frequency, measured in hertz (Hz), is essential for understanding wave and vibration phenomena. The study includes experiments that show the visualization of resonance patterns using a loudspeaker, balloon membrane, and sodium bicarbonate, validating classical acoustic theories and suggesting potential therapeutic applications. In addition, it aims to evaluate how different geometries and materials affect the formation of complex resonant patterns and their bioenergetic potential, highlighting the interest in the therapeutic properties of sound. This approach reveals a growing interest in integrating acoustic analysis into vibrational medicine, neuroscience, and bioengineering, promoting a deeper understanding of the interaction between sound and matter.

The first study examines health promotion and prevention of Chronic Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) among older adults at the Clemencia Foundation and Sofia Ratinoff Nursing Home in Ecuador. It highlights the prevalence of diseases like hypertension and diabetes, identifying risk factors such as poor diet and lack of exercise. The second study reviews the literature on aging and physical-recreational activities at the Sofia Ratino Nursing Home, suggesting multifaceted strategies to enhance motor skills. Another explores underdamped elastic response spectra using Newmark's β-method for seismic analysis. The next research analyzes the psychological contract and job performance through a bibliometric approach. Continuing, the implementation of ISO 14001:2015 in Ecuador is discussed, emphasizing the growth in environmental certifications. Another project focuses on preserving Afro-Esmeraldean ancestral knowledge, promoting cultural diversity and educational integration. Additionally, methodological strategies to enhance mathematics teaching are reviewed. Lastly, an analysis of reconditioning electric vehicle batteries for alternative uses is presented, offering insights into sustainable practices and energy solutions.

The Edwards Deming Journal presents a series of innovative and relevant research studies in various disciplines. One study highlights the importance of theoretical foundations for the development of hostels in Guayaquil, emphasizing the need for well-defined professional skills. Another study focuses on the construction of reinforced concrete buildings, providing detailed technical specifications to ensure safety and efficiency. In addition, adherence to drug treatment in patients with chronic diseases is explored, underscoring the need for a deeper understanding of patients' perceptions. In the field of education, the impact of ICT on innovative educational practices is investigated, while in the automotive sector, the carbon footprint of electric vehicles is analyzed. Finally, influencer marketing is examined, providing a robust conceptual framework for improving business competitiveness. These studies reflect a comprehensive approach to continuous improvement and innovation in key fields.
