Gentrification is an urban phenomenon that displaces the original inhabitants of a neighborhood due to regeneration processes. In this analysis carried out in the historic center of the heritage city of Cuenca, the beginning of the process does not necessarily respond to a significant transformation of the architecture. It has been proven that the phenomenon arises invisibly due to changes in the demographic composition of the neighborhood. The methodology of this research requires the correlation of census data for each minimum applicable unit known as a block. This information is contrasted with historical photographs available on the Google platform. The significant contribution to the concept of gentrification results in a method that allows identifying and predicting the phenomenon, more important than its visual-late diagnosis.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of different surface treatments on the pigmentability of the ceramic after immersion in staining solution. 44 disks of 10 mm radius and 3 mm thickness were made. Samples were randomly assigned among 4 experimental groups (n=11) receiving surface treatment according to the different groups M, H, B, L. (n=10) were distributed for color evaluation and Roughness (RU) and a sample of each group used for scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis. For (RU), the data were subjected to ANOVA on ranks (α=0.05), and for the color ANOVA a factor (α=0.05). In the microphotographs of the surface, a qualitative/descriptive analysis was carried out. Results: In the (RU) compared before and after immersion for each group, no statistical difference was observed (p> 0.05). When comparing the types of polish before immersion, a difference was obs...
