Introduction. The San José bridge located in the city of Azogues, province of Cañar has considerable damage in your structure due to different seismological events. These damages must be analyzed to decide to repair or build a structural reinforcement. Objective. Model the bridge with structural analysis software and compare results with the reality of the structure to determine its severity of damage and decide to repair or structural reinforcement. Methodology. Model the structure and start a nonlinear static analysis to observe the critical points of the structure and compare if the real damages of the bridge arch are in the critical zones. Results. The real damage is in the critical area of ​​the bridge, resulting in the structure entering the collapse prevention zone, which is why it can be supporting only its structural weight, this state being dangerous for the users of this bridge. Conclusion. A reinforced concrete arch must be designed to reinforce the structure and to support the weight of the current structure plus the live load for which the bridge will be used.

The aim of this research is: to analyze the innovation and development of smart manufacturing systems in Ecuador. For this, it was analyzed at the Latin American level, in countries such as Chile, Brazil and Argentina. In these countries there are a paradigm shift in public and private organizations in the generation of knowledge. On the other hand, Ecuador has taken its first steps in science, technology and innovation processes through various public policies with a high investment in education, but with a still low incidence in productivity. One of the advantages for this implementation is that most of the companies technological have internet (96%), but the biggest problem lies in the constant change and advance, associated with the high costs of acquisition and implementation of equipment and machines. In addition to this, the social and cultural environment of entrepreneurs is added due to the little or no habit of implementing technological changes in a routine process. It is expected that in the future this will change and there may be a feasibility of implementing smart manufacturing systems.

Introduction.

This article analyzed the existence of problems in the face of the lack of operability when the legitimate decisions of the competent authority are not complied with in cases of violence against women or members of the family nucleus, considering essential rights such as due process, effective judicial protection established in the Constitution of the Republic. The set of laws in a broad sense, assumes the existence of the obligation of all subjects to comply with the provisions even if that rule or decision is not to the liking of the person obliged to execute it. Respect for the rules and decisions that are dictated in a territory by the competent authority, supposes a requirement of the Constitutional States of rights. Ecuadorian legislation has transcended its criminal regulations with figures aimed at protecting social peace and an effective enjoyment of rights. In the present investigation, an analysis and interpretation with documentary bibliography, sampling and review of causes and reports of the Specialized Judicial Unit of Violence against Women and members of the family nucleus of Morona of the Council of the Judiciary were required, which in relation to the LOIPEVM, reflect percentages of cases resolved, with sentence and in abandonment. Thus, being able to identify the background of the main problem that is the disobedience of orders and at the same time determine that the process for the victims needs effective actions and public policies that, without harming the procedural parties, overcome the investigative, sanctioning, and reparative weaknesses of rights.
