Abstract:
In prepubertal heifers, the mammary parenchyma consists of epithelial and myoepithelial cells growing within a mammary fat pad (MFP). The MFP produces IGF-I that stimulates epithelial cell proliferation. In other species, adipose tissue expansion induces inflammation-related proteins (IRP), such as tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα), interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β transforming growth factor β, monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1), and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1). The MFP production of IRP may influence mammary development because they impair not only insulin but also IGF-I actions. Moreover, the MFP expansion seen with development and increased nutrition coincides with reduced parenchymal growth. Our first objective was to identify IRP capable of altering proliferation of bovine mammary epithelial cells. TNFα, but neither IL-6, IL-1β MCP-1 nor PAI-1, inhibited basal and IGF-I-stimulated proliferation in MAC-T cells and primary cells isolated from heifers. Our second objective was to determine whether MFP expression of IRP changed in a manner consistent with inhibition of parenchymal growth. MFP expression was measured from 100 to 350 kg body weight (experiment 1) or at 240 kg body weight (experiment 2) in dairy heifers offered restricted or high planes of nutrition. In experiment 1, neither nutrition nor development altered MFP expression of TNFα. Nutrition increased MCP-1 and PAI-1 but only before MFP expansion and after cessation of allometric parenchymal growth. In experiment 2, nutrition increased TNFα and PAI-1, but not MCP-1. Thus, MFP expansion increases IRP production in cattle, but this is unlikely to contribute to reduced parenchymal growth observed with development or increased nutrition.

Abstract:
Miracle fruit (Synsepalum dulcificum) has been well known and studied for its unique taste-modifying ability. In this study, the monosaccharide composition, molecular weight (Mw), and in vitro bioactivities (antioxidant, α-glucosidase inhibition) of polysaccharides from the seeds (MFP-S) and leaves (MFP-L) of miracle fruit were investigated. The results showed that MFP-S was a homogeneous polysaccharide (Mw 2804 Da) with glucose. MFP-L displayed three fractions (92093, 1496, and 237 Da) consisting of rhamnose, arabinose, galactose, glucose, and xylose. Moreover, the antioxidant and α-glucosidase inhibition of MFP-L were significantly greater than those of MFP-S. The α-glucosidase inhibition of MFP-L was remarkably better than the positive control, acarbose (an antidiabetes drug). More specifically, the 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) values of α-glucosidase activities for MFP-S, MFP-L, and acarbose were 33, 0.01, and 1 mg mL−1, separately. Therefore, MFP-L can be developed as a functional factor with both antioxidant and antidiabetes activities in food applications.

Abstract:
Objective: Current therapies to treat P. falciparum malaria are heavily reliant on artemisinin-based combinations. However, resistance to artemisinin has recently been identified, and resistance to key artemisinin partner drugs is already widespread. Therefore, there is an urgent need for new antimalarial drugs with improved attributes over older therapies. The objective of this research work is to synthesize new antimalarial agents more effective against clinically relevant malarial strains.Methods: In present work, a series of ten 3-phenyl-2-thioxothiazolidin-4-one (MF1-MF10) derivatives, were synthesized by Knoevenagel condensation of N-phenyl rhodanine (I1) with substituted aromatic or hetro aromatic aldehydes using microwave irradiation. N-phenyl rhodanine (I1) was synthesized by a conventional reaction involving methyl-2-mercaptoacetate (1) and phenyl Isothiocyanates in presence of triethylamine. All the synthesized compounds were characterized by various spectroscopic techniques and evaluated for in-vitro antimalarial activity by microdilution technique against resistance strains of Plasmodium falciparum.Results: The antimalarial activity data showed that six compounds (MF1, MF3, MF4, MF5, MF7 and MF8) exhibited IC50 values ranging from 1.0-1.30 µg/ml, three compounds (MF2, MF6 and MF10) displayed IC50 values in the range of 0.9-1.0 µg/ml. Compound MF9 showed most significant result with maximum activity (IC50 = 0.85µg/ml).Conclusion: The antimalarial activity results revealed that compound MF9 possess potent activity and could be identified as a promising lead for further investigation.

Abstract:
Mussel foot proteins (mfps) have been investigated as a source of inspiration for the design of underwater coatings and adhesives. Recent analysis of various mfps by a surface forces apparatus (SFA) revealed that mfp-1 functions as a coating, whereas mfp-3 and mfp-5 resemble adhesive primers on mica surfaces. To further refine and elaborate the surface properties of mfps, the force–distance profiles of the interactions between thin mfp (i.e. mfp-1, mfp-3 or mfp-5) films and four different surface chemistries, namely mica, silicon dioxide, polymethylmethacrylate and polystyrene, were measured by an SFA. The results indicate that the adhesion was exquisitely dependent on the mfp tested, the substrate surface chemistry and the contact time. Such studies are essential for understanding the adhesive versatility of mfps and related/similar adhesion proteins, and for translating this versatility into a new generation of coatings and (including in vivo ) adhesive materials.

Abstract:
The analysis of electromyographic (EMG) signals detected during muscle contraction provides important information to aid in the diagnosis and characterization of neuromuscular disorders. One important analysis measures neuromuscular jitter, which is the variability of the time intervals between two muscle fibre potentials (MFPs) belonging to the same motor unit over a set of discharges. Conventionally, neuromuscular jitter is measured using single fibre (SF) EMG techniques, which can identify individual MFPs by using a SF needle electrode. However, SF electrodes are expensive, very sensitive to needle movement and not easy to operate in practise.

A method is studied in this thesis for automatically measuring neuromuscular jitter in motor unit potentials (MUP), it measures jitter using routine EMG techniques, which detect MUPs using a concentric needle (CN) electrode. The method is based on the detection of near MFP contributions, which correspond to individual muscle fibre contributions to MUPs, and the identification of individual MFP pairs. The method was evaluated using simulated EMG data. After an EMG signal is decomposed into MUP trains, a second-order differentiator, McGill filter, is applied to detect near MFP contributions to MUPs. Then, using nearest neighbour clustering and minimum spanning tree algorithms, the sets of available filtered MUPs can be selected and individual MFPs can be identified according to the features of their shapes. Finally, individual MFP pairs are selected and neuromuscular jitter is measured.

Using the McGill filter, near MFP contributions to detected CN MUPs can be consistently detected across an ensemble of successive firings of a motor unit. The method is an extension of the work Sheng Ma, compared to previous works, more efficient algorithms are used which have demonstrated acceptable performance, and which can consistently measure neuromuscular jitter in a variety of EMG signals.

Mobile computers and wireless communication technologies are already a reality in the modern IT environment, resulting in the paradigm of Mobile Computing. These mobile devices may have BD and their data may be shared. However, the junction operators of the conventional search operators do not take into account the limitations of a mobility-supporting environment, such as a disconnection from the communication network, a narrow communication bandwidth, the battery charge level, etc. Therefore, the junction algorithms need to be adjusted to the limitations of the mobile computing in order to render satisfactory results and execute a search requested by the user within a reasonable period of time. The necessary characteristics for an algorithm to be executed in a mobilitysupporting environment are: (1) incremental production of results as the data become available; (2) continuous processing of the search, even if the delivery of data is blocked; and (3) reaction to limited memory situations during the execution of the search [1]. It was evidenced through studies and tests that the Hash-Merge Join (HMJ) is more efficient to guarantee these 3 characteristics (properties) needed when working with junctions in an efficient fashion within a mobile computing environment. When the memory is at its full storage capacity, the HMJ algorithm releases memory partitions according to the memory status. This adaptation to the memory status determines the best pair of partitions, being each partition from a different source, to be sent to the disk in a way that maximizes the time until the next memory overflow. A memory overflow occurs when the memory reaches its storage capacity. The aim of this work is to propose a new memory data flushing policy MFP. This policy offers an optimization of the Adaptive Flushing Policy (AFP) while keeping the same main goal, i.e. to send pairs of partitions to the disk in the event of a memory overflow. The AFP releases corresponding pairs of partitions to the disk based on a summary table kept in memory and on two parameters: (1) memory balance; and (2) minimum partition size. The summary table in memory contains the size of each partition, the sum of the individual sizes of each pair of partitions of both lists and the total size of partitions of each list. 8 The MFP also releases corresponding pairs of partitions to the disk, based on a constant memory balance and a summary table different from the summary table used by the AFP. The summary table of this new policy has one more column, which states the cardinality difference of each pair of partitions of the input lists. The main goal of this new column is to guarantee that the pair of partitions chosen to be sent to the disk will always leave a balanced memory, while it guarantees that there will always be at least one pair of partitions to be sent to the disk.
Em uma MDBC as técnicas de processamento de consultas devem ser adaptadas para lidarem com a instabilidade do ambiente, assim como limitação de recursos, por exemplo memórias limitadas dos computadores móveis. Vejamos um exemplo: as fontes de dados podem ter as taxas de entregas de tuplas previstas pelo otimizador de consultas, no entanto devido a uma desconexão de uma das fontes de dados da rede sem fio, tal fonte de dados ficará desconectada da rede e por conseqüência, não poderá entregar suas tuplas temporariamente, logo o operador de junção ficará parado(bloqueado). Para processar consultas em uma MDBC, os algoritmos de junção precisam ter as características seguintes: (1) produção incremental de resultados à medida que os dados são disponibilizados, (2) continuidade no processamento da consulta mesmo que a entrega dos dados esteja bloqueada, e (3) reação a situações de limitação de memória durante a execução da consulta[Erro! A origem da referência não foi encontrada.]. Esse trabalho é propõe uma nova política de liberação de dados da memória, chamada Mobile Flushing Policy(MFP). A política MFP propõe uma otimização da política Adaptive Flushing Policy(AFP), usada pelo algoritmo de junção Hash-Merge Join, mantendo o mesmo objetivo principal, enviar pares de partições para o disco, em caso de ocorrência de overflow de memória. A política AFP libera pares correspondentes de partições para o disco com base em uma tabela resumo mantida em memória e dois parâmetros: (1) balanceamento de memória e (2) tamanho mínimo de partições. Esta política mantém uma tabela resumo em memória contendo o tamanho de cada partição, o somatório dos tamanhos de cada par de partições de ambas as relações e o tamanho total de partições de cada relação. A política MFP também libera pares correspondentes de partições para o disco com base em uma constante de balanceamento de memória e uma tabela resumo diferenciada da tabela resumo utilizada pela política AFP. A tabela resumo da nova política tem uma coluna a mais discriminando a diferença da cardinalidade de cada par de partições das relações de entrada. O objetivo principal da nova coluna é garantir que o par de partições escolhido para ser enviado ao disco deixará a memória balanceada, além de garantir que sempre haverá no mínimo um par de partições a ser enviado ao disco.

Abstract:
Ce travail de thèse porte sur l'étude théorique de la fragmentation de petits agrégats carbonés et d'hydrocarbures neutres par le modèle statistique Micarocanonical Metropolis Monte Carlo (MMMC). Ce modèle décrit, à contrainte d'énergie fixée, l'espace des phases associé à tous les degrés de liberté accessibles au système (partitions des masses, mouvements de translation et de rotation, spin et moment angulaire des fragments, etc.). Les ingrédients de base du modèle (énergies de dissociation, géométries, fréquences de vibration etc.) doivent être obtenus par un calcul ab initio. Ils ont été calculés à l'aide de la théorie de la fonctionnelle de la densité (DFT) au niveau de calcul B3LYP/6-311+G(3df). Les probabilités obtenues des voies de fragmentation en fonction de l'énergie d'excitation, ont été comparées aux données expérimentales obtenues auprès du Tandem. Des faisceaux de haute vitesse (projectile de Cn+ à v = 2.6 u.a. et de CnH+ à v = 4.5 u.a.) entraient en interaction avec les noyaux d'hélium. Tous les rapports de branchement des voies de fragmentation des Cn (n ≤ 9) et des CnH (n ≤ 4) résultant de capture électroniques ont été mesurés. La distribution d'énergie d'excitation de l'agrégat parent a du être ajustée pour que les mesures expérimentales soient reproduites d'une façon optimale, à l'aide de deux algorithmes : Non-Negative Least Squares et backtracing Bayesien. La comparaison des probabilités théoriques et expérimentales montre un bon accord global. Les deux algorithmes de minimisation ont convergé vers des distributions d'énergie déposée présentant des pics. Ces pics pourraient être la signature d'états moléculaires spécifiques jouant un rôle dans la fragmentation du cluster.

Abstract:
Die Realstruktur des perowskitischen Modellsystems SrTiO3, welches in der Raumgruppe Pm-3m kristallisiert, wird durch die Sauerstoffvakanz als wichtigstem Defekt dominiert. Durch Temperaturbehandlung unter reduzierenden Bedingungen können Sauerstoffvakanzen in die Kristallstruktur eingebracht werden. Aufgrund ihrer positiven Ladung relativ zum Kristallgitter bewegen sie sich im elektrischen Feld entlang des TiO6-Oktaedernetzwerkes. Die Elektroformierung folgt dabei einem Arrheniuszusammenhang, wobei sowohl die Aktivierungsenergie als auch die Mobilität eine deutliche Abhängigkeit von der Kristallorientierung zeigen. Die Umverteilung der Sauerstoffvakanzen führt zu lokalen reversiblen Strukturänderungen, welche die Ausbildung einer neuen migrationsinduzierten feldstabilisierten polaren (MFP) Phase verursachen. In Abhängigkeit von der elektrischen Feldstärke zeichnet sie sich strukturell durch eine tetragonale Verzerrung der ursprünglich kubischen Elementarzelle aus und geht mit dem Verlust der Inversionssymmetrie einher. Die Polarisation in der Struktur wird durch die erwiesene Pyroelektrizität bestätigt und gilt als Grundlage, um anhand eines kristallographischen Symmetrieabstieges die Herleitung der Raumgruppe P4mm zu ermöglichen. Der durch die Migration hervorgerufene intrinsische Defektkonzentrationsgradient ruft eine elektromotorische Kraft hervor, deren Verwendung in einem elektrochemischen Energiespeicher experimentell nachgewiesen wurde. Diese neuen Funktionalitäten sind durch die Anwendung defektchemischer und kristallphysikalischer Konzepte infolge gezielter Materialmodifizierung unter Einfluss von Temperatur und elektrischem Feld zu verstehen
The real structure of the perovskite-type model system SrTiO3, crystallizing in space group Pm-3m, is dominated by oxygen vacancies as most important defects. They are introduced in the crystal structure through heat-treatment under reducing conditions. Because of their positive charge relative to the crystal lattice, oxygen vacancies move in an electric field along the TiO6 octahedron network. This electroformation process follows an Arrhenius behavior. Both the activation energy and the mobility show an obvious dependence on the crystal orientation. Redistribution of oxygen defects causes local reversible structural changes, which involve the formation of a migration-induced field-stabilized polar (MFP) phase. In dependence on the electric field strength, this is structurally marked by a tetragonal distortion of the original cubic unit cell and accompanied by a loss of inversion symmetry. The polarisation in the crystal structure is confirmed by the proven pyroelectricity and serves for the argumentation to derive the space group P4mm by means of a crystallographic symmetry descent. The migration-induced intrinsic concentration gradient of oxygen vacancies leads to an electromotive force, whose application as electrochemical energy storage was proven experimentally. These new functionalities are explainable using defect chemistry and crystal physics in consequence of specific material modifications under the influence of temperature and external electric fields

Abstract:
Introduction: The multidisciplinary feeding profile (MFP) is the first multidisciplinary protocol to evaluate the feeding profile of children with neurological dysfunction with strict statistical control of reliability, in addition it is not only an isolated swallow scale, but it evaluates several other factors that interfere in the swallow process. Objective: To translate and cross-cultural adapt to Brazilian Portuguese the MFP evaluation scale. Method: The type of the study is translation and cultural adaptation of the measurement instruments. The recommendations based on the COnsensus for the selection of health status measurement instruments Status of Status Assessment (COSMIN) were followed. This study was composed of 4 PHASES: PHASE 1 - two independent translations (T1 and T2) were developed. In PHASE 2, the versions and comparisons were passed through linguistic adaptations, generating a consensus version T1&2 combined. In PHASE 3, a committee of clinical experts was formed in order to analyze the level of comprehension of the translated scale (T1&2). The expert committee received a questionnaire with a five points Likert scale correspondent to the level of comprehension, where 1- was incomprehensible and 5- excellent comprehension. The, after the expert committee analysis, all comments where considered relevant and adaptations to generate the version T3 was made by researchers. The version T3 was distributed to the expert committee to the final approval. The final version is generated after the approval and will be backtranslated to English and sent to the original authors. This research was approved by the Research and Ethics Committee of the Federal University of Sergipe-UFS, CAAE 43225914.7.0000.55.46. The copyright of the MFP scale was licensed to the authors SVPS e SS. A free and informed consent form and form of confidentiality of the Multidisciplinary Feeding Profile - MFP were signed by the expert committee and caregivers responsible of the children who participated in the project. Results: The levels of few comprehension, 1, 2 and 3 had frequencies lower than 5% (8,9 of 178) and the level 5 - excellent comprehension was 97% (172 of 178) were attributed to levels of comprehension. Those results demonstrated that the great majority of translated items had an excellent understanding by the experts committee. After application of the scale, the levels of few comprehension, 1, 2 and 3 had frequencies lower than 2% and the levels 4 and 5 was 80% and 100% (of 178) were attributed to levels of comprehension. Conclusion: This study successfully translated and transcultural adapted to Brazilian Portuguese the MFP evaluation scale. The next step is to validate the MFP Brazilian version, testing its concurrent and discriminant validity as well as its reliability. The brazilian version of MFP evaluation will lead to the development of more strong evidence studies, such as randomized clinical trials and systematic review with meta-analysis, contributing to the understanding and treatment of dysphagia in children with neurological disorders.
Introdução: a Multidisciplinary Feeding Profile (MFP) é o primeiro protocolo multidisciplinar de avaliação do perfil de alimentação para crianças neurológicas com rigorosa verificação estatística de confiabilidade que avalia não apenas a deglutição de forma isolada, mas diversos fatores que interferem nesse processo. Objetivo: O objetivo deste estudo foi traduzir e adaptar culturalmente para o português brasileiro a escala canadense de avaliação denominada Multidisciplinary Feeding Profile-MFP. Método: trata-se de estudo de tradução e adaptação cultural de instrumento de medida que seguiu recomendações do COnsensus based Standards for the selection of health Status Measurement INstruments (COSMIN), um consenso validado internacionalmente, que orienta processos de tradução e validação de instrumentos de medida. Esse estudo foi composto de 4 FASES: FASE 1 foram geradas 2 traduções independentes (T1 e T2) por dois profissionais da saúde de áreas distintas. Na FASE 2 as versões foram comparadas, passou por adequações linguísticas, gerando uma versão consenso (T1&2), e a amostra foi composta por 2 fonoaudiólogas. Na FASE 3: foi realizada análise do nível de compreensão da escala traduzida (T1&2) em dois momentos: apenas com a leitura (por 7 fonoaudiólogos) e após aplicação da escala (por 3 fonoaudiólogos), onde cada avaliador aplicou a versão T1&2 num paciente seu, criança, com disfagia e disfunção neuromotora. Após sugestões do Comitê de experts, foi submetida a um Comitê de Juízes e foram realizadas as adaptações necessárias. Foi feito o backtranslation e, por fim enviada aos autores originais para seguir com as tapas de validação (após o mestrado). Essa pesquisa foi aprovada pelo Comitê de Ética e Pesquisa da Universidade Federal de Sergipe-UFS, CAAE 43225914.7.0000.55.46. Os direitos autorais da escala MFP para a tradução em português foram cedidos pelos autores originais às autoras. Os fonoaudiólogos convidados concordaram em participar voluntariamente dessa pesquisa e assinaram um Termo de Consentimento Livre e Esclarecido e Termo de Confidencialidade do Perfil de Alimentação Multidisciplinar-PAM e se comprometeram a não divulgar ou mesmo utilizar a escala para outros fins. Foi realizada estatística descritiva dos níveis de compreensão (da escala traduzida) e transcrição dos comentários do grupo de fonoaudiólogos ipsis litteris e analisada a relevância da adaptação cultural. Resultados: Ao analisar os níveis de compreensão somente com a leitura, observou-se que os níveis 1 (incompreensível) e 2 (ambíguo) obtiveram frequências abaixo de 5%. A frequência dos níveis 4 (fácil compreensão) e 5 (ótima compreensão) prevaleceram, despontando com maiores porcentagens de 77% e 98%, respectivamente. Dos 178 subitens que compõe a Escala, houve prevalência significativa dos valores 4 (77%) e 5 (98%) atribuídos aos níveis de compreensão, demonstrando que a grande maioria dos itens traduzidos obtiveram de fácil a ótima compreensão na avaliação do Comitê de Experts, que fez sugestões à respeito da marcação na escala, duplicidade de sentido em relação à escrita de itens e a tradução de termos. Após aplicação da escala os níveis 1, 2 e 3 obtiveram frequências máximas de, apenas, 2%. A frequência dos níveis 4 e 5 despontaram com as maiores porcentagens, de 80% e 100%, respectivamente. Conclusão: Esse estudo traduziu e adaptou para o português do Brasil o primeiro Perfil de Alimentação Multidisciplinar viabilizando estudos de maior força como ensaios clínicos randomizados e revisões sistemáticas com meta-análise, e obteve nível de entendimento de fácil à ótima compreensão na avaliação do Comitê de Experts.

Resumo: A possibilidade da avaliação laboratoria dentifrício fluoretados deve ser considerada por razões de seleção, custos, equivalência e éticas. A importância do F-/MFP e associação dos mesmos, em termos de eficiência cariostática de produtos comerciais, é assunto controvertido. o objetivo deste trabalho foi estudar, in vitro, o efeito da relação F-/MFP na atividade de dentifrícios fluoretados, utilizando-se metodologias que mostraram correlação com o desempenho clinico de pastas de dentes. Avaliou-se: 1) A reatividade com o esmalte dental humano integro em condições simulando o ato de escovação; 2) A reatividade com o esmalte dental humano com lesão inicial de cárie e 3) Mineral perdido e flúor incorporado nos dentes submetidos a ciclagens de pH. Para as determinações de flúor utilizou-se eletrodo especifico ORION, 96-09 e as análises de microdureza foram feitas em secções longitudinais das áreas submetidas a Des-Re, utilizando-se microdurómetro TUKON e carga de 25 g. Os resultados mostraram que a atividade do dentifrício tende a aumentar com a maior proporção de F- na mistura F- /MFP, entretanto não é obtido um efeito máximo. Os dados deste trabalho sugerem que o desempenho clínico cariostático de um dentifrício com MFP pode ser melhorado pela adição de F- ao MFP
Abstract: The laboratory evaluation of fluoride dentifrices should be considered to allow selection and screening of effective dentifrices and also considering the ethical question and high cost of clinic trials. The anti-caries efficacy of F-(NaF), MFP and theirs associations is a controversial subject. The aim of this work was study the effect of the ratio F-/MFP in the activity of dentifrices,using laboratory methodology that showed correlations with clinical efficacy for fluoridated toothpastes. It was studied: 1) Reactivity with sound human enamel simulating the conditions ocurring in the mouth during toothbrushing; 2) Fluoride uptake to demineralized enamel and 3) Mineral loss and fluoride uptake in tooth subjected to a pH-cyling model. Fluoride was determined with a ion specific electrode, ORION 96-09. Mi1neral loss was assessed by cross-sectional microhardness using a TUKON Hardness Tester with a 25g charge. The results showed that the activity of the dentifrice increases with the higher proportion of F-/MFP in the mixture (F-/MFP). These data suggest t hat the cariostatic performace may be improved by the addition of F- in HFP dentifrices

Abstract:
La détérioration d'une structure en béton peut être dû à de nombreux processus, qui agissent individuellement ou en synergie. Quelques exemples de processus qui causent la détérioration des matériaux cimentaires comprennent des attaques sulfatique, des cycles gel-dégel, de la carbonation ou des attaques salins provoquant la corrosion des armatures dans le béton. La corrosion des armatures est l'un des phénomènes les plus importants qui réduit la durée de vie des ouvrages en béton, en impactant de façon importante le budget maintenance de la structure affectée. L’objectif de ce travail est d'étudier la durabilité à long terme de différents inhibiteurs de corrosion. D’une part, trois inhibiteurs de corrosion sont choisis comme représentatifs : le nitrite de calcium (CNI), l’éthanolamine (AMA) et le sodium monofluorophosphate (MFP). Ils sont incorporés dans trois bétons différents : le béton de ciment Portland (OPCC), le béton de ciment reconstitué avec 70% de ciment Portland et 30% de laitier (BCC) et le béton prêt à l’emploi (RMC). Afin d'étudier l'efficacité de ces trois inhibiteurs, quatre approches sont employées : une à l’échelle de la solution interstitielle de béton, une à l'échelle de la solution extraite de ciment, une à l'échelle du mortier et une à l'échelle du béton. L'étude est réalisée en employant des méthodes électrochimiques et analytiques afin de caractériser le mécanisme d'inhibition en présence d'ions chlore. D’autre part, l'objectif de cette étude est d'explorer l'efficacité d'un nouveau pigment inhibiteur de zinc-phosphate (ZP) obtenu par la conversion chimique et le traitement électrochimique cathodique. Cette étude est réalisée à l’échelle de la solution interstitielle de béton ainsi qu’à à l'échelle du mortier
The deterioration of a concrete structure may occur due to many processes, which act individually or synergistically. Some examples of processes that cause material deterioration include alkali aggregate reactivity, sulphate attacks, freezing, thawing, cycling, carbonation or salt attack inducing corrosion of concrete reinforcement. Corrosion of reinforcing rebars is one of the most important phenomenon’s that reduce the service life of a concrete structure, and causes a huge impact on the maintenance budget of affected structure. The objective of this research work is to study the long-term durability of different corrosion inhibitors. On the one hand, three additive corrosion inhibitors are selected as representatives : one is a calcium nitrite based corrosion inhibitor (CNI), the other corrosion inhibitors are ethanolamine (AMA) and sodium monoflurophosphate (MFP). They were admixed in water before casting of three different concretes (Ordinary Portland cement concrete (OPCC), blended cement concrete prepared with 30% slag in mass substitution of Portland cement (BCC) and ready-mix concrete (RMC)). In order to characterize the effectiveness of these inhibitors, four approaches are used: one at the level of pore concrete simulating solutions, one at the solution extract of cement level, one at the mortar level and one at the concrete level. The study was performed through the using electrochemical and analytical methods to discuss the inhibition mechanism in the presence of chloride ions. On the other hand, the objective of this study is to explore the efficiency of a new inhibitive pigment zinc-phosphate (ZP) used as coating for rebars and obtained by chemical conversion and cathodic electrochemical treatment, to protect carbon steel rebar against the corrosion by chloride ions in fresh pore concrete simulating solutions and mortars

The results of an experimental calibration of the NASA Glenn Research Center 16″ Mass-Flow Plug (MFP) are presented and compared to a previously obtained calibration of a 15″ Mass-Flow Plug. An ASME low-beta, long-radius nozzle was used as the calibration reference. The discharge coefficient for the ASME nozzle was obtained by numerically simulating the flow through the nozzle from the WIND-US code. The results showed agreement between the 15″ and 16″ MFPs for area ratios (MFP to pipe area ratio) greater than 0.6 but deviate at area ratios below this value for reasons that are not fully understood. A general uncertainty analysis was also performed and indicates that large uncertainties in the calibration are present for low MFP area ratios.

Abstract:
The orthogonal design was chosen as the mega-frame platform optimizing method to find out the parameters which had the most important effect on the platforms’ performances. The mega-frame platform (MFP) was a new type of anti-vibration platform using the mega-frame theory. It was combined of the major frame and the minor frames. The parameters that had much more important effect on the MFP’ static capability were the number, height, position and stiffness of the major beams and the leg batter, stiffness of the major columns. In this paper, there were six factors, which were the diameter of the major beams (factor A), the leg batter (factor B), the diameter of the major columns (factor C), the position (factor D), the number (factor E) and height (factor F) of the major beams, in the orthogonal design. Two factors, the number and the height of the major beams, had two levels. One factor, the position of the major beams, had three levels. The other three factors had four levels. In order to use the orthogonal table L16(44×23), one level of factor D was repeated. The analyses of the MFPs with different parameters under the same horizontal and vertical unequal loads show that: 1) the most important factor that effects the MFP is the diameter of the major columns, then the leg batter of the major columns; the thirdly and the fourthly factor are the position and the diameter the major beams; the height of the major beam has the least effect on the MFP’s performances; 2) the optimal MFP is C4B3D4A1E2F2. The mode analysis of the optimal MFP shows that the platform has high global stiffness and the equal mass and stiffness distribution. So the MFPs have the overall performance and can avoid the partial breakage under the random external loads.

Abstract:
Abstract Phonon Monte Carlo method is a popular method for modeling particle dominated phonon transport. Its accuracy critically depends on its inputs such as relaxation time and dispersion, which are difficult to be obtained accurately and efficiently. As a result, empirical models with many fitting parameters are often used. In addition, for large-scale 3D nanostructured systems, the required computational cost is very high. In this article, we present an efficient and highly parallelizable phonon Monte Carlo method using MFP-cumulative thermal conductivity as the only input. The efficiency is enhanced by incorporating the recently proposed variance-reduction method, and the accuracy is ensured because the MFP-based cumulative thermal conductivity can be accurately obtained by experiments or first principles calculation. Moreover, with the MEP-cumulative thermal conductivity as the input, optical phonons can be naturally included in the calculation, which further improves the accuracy.

Abstract:
A new 16-leg mega-frame platform (MFP) was constructed based on an actual jacket platform (W12–1) using the mega-frame theory. Two control platforms, traditional jacket platform and jacket platform with upright column, were also built based on principle that all the platforms had the equal or similar weight, the same upper deck structure and the same function. Every column of the MFP had the most equal load and the smallest stress under the same horizontal and vertical unequal loads. So the MFP had the best loads bearing ability of all the three types’ platforms above. In order to find out the effect of the structure parameters’ change to the platforms’ static performance, many types of MFPs were constructed by changing the number, the height and the stiffness of the major beams and/or by changing the stiffness and the angle of the major columns on the basic model MFP-313707. The analyses of all types of MFPs with different parameters under the same horizontal and vertical unequal loads show that: 1) The increase of the major beams’ height makes the platforms’ columns bear more equally than the increase of the major beams’ number; 2) The increase of major columns’ stiffness has better effect on the platform’s maximal deformation decrease and the columns’ loads equality. And the effect of the increase of the major beams’ and columns’ stiffness on the MFP’s static capability has the optimal values. Beyond the optimal values, the increase of the platforms’ weight caused by the increase of the stiffness is much bigger than the decrease of the platform’s deformation and the increase of the columns’ loads’ equality. The analyses also show that the slope angle of the platforms’ columns must be set around 10°.

Abstract:
Abstract Sensor data predictions could significantly improve the accuracy and effectiveness of modern control systems; however, existing machine learning and advanced statistical techniques to forecast time series data require significant computational resources which is not ideal for real-time applications. In this paper, we propose a novel forecasting technique called Compact Form Dynamic Linearization Model-Free Prediction (CFDL-MFP) which is derived from the existing model-free adaptive control framework. This approach enables near real-time forecasts of seconds-worth of time-series data due to its basis as an optimal control problem. The performance of the CFDL-MFP algorithm was evaluated using four real datasets including: force sensor readings from surgical needle, ECG measurements for heart rate, and atmospheric temperature and Nile water level recordings. On average, the forecast accuracy of CFDL-MFP was 28% better than the benchmark Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) algorithm. The maximum computation time of CFDL-MFP was 49.1ms which was 170 times faster than ARIMA. Forecasts were best for deterministic data patterns, such as the ECG data, with a minimum average root mean squared error of (0.2±0.2).

Abstract:
This Emerging Evidence Report describes the availability of evidence on modern slavery interventions in Myanmar presented in the programme's interactive Evidence Map. This report on Myanmar uses the same methodology and complements the evidence map on interventions to tackle trafficking, child and forced labour in South Asia for Nepal, India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. The Evidence Map provides an outline of where evidence is concentrated and where it is missing by mapping out existing and ongoing impact evaluations and observational studies exploring different types of modern slavery interventions and outcomes for specific target populations (survivors, employers, landlords, service providers, criminal justice officials) and at different levels (individual, community, state). It also identifies key ‘gaps’ in evidence. Both the Evidence Map and this report foremost target the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) and its partners in the CLARISSA research programme to support evidence-informed policymaking on innovations to reduce the worst forms of child labour. We hope that it is also useful to academics and practitioners working to address modern slavery, or in the intervention areas and locations described.

Full text
Abstract:
This study was conducted to inventory, classify, and map soils and vegetation within the ecosystems of Katmai National Park and Preserve (KATM) using an ecological land survey (ELS) approach. The ecosystem classes identified in the ELS effort were mapped across the park, using an archive of Geo-graphic Information System (GIS) and Remote Sensing (RS) datasets pertaining to land cover, topography, surficial geology, and glacial history. The description and mapping of the landform-vegetation-soil relationships identified in the ELS work provides tools to support the design and implementation of future field- and RS-based studies, facilitates further analysis and contextualization of existing data, and will help inform natural resource management decisions. We collected information on the geomorphic, topographic, hydrologic, pedologic, and vegetation characteristics of ecosystems using a dataset of 724 field plots, of which 407 were sampled by ABR, Inc.—Environmental Research and Services (ABR) staff in 2016–2017, and 317 were from existing, ancillary datasets. ABR field plots were located along transects that were selected using a gradient-direct sampling scheme (Austin and Heligers 1989) to collect data for the range of ecological conditions present within KATM, and to provide the data needed to interpret ecosystem and soils development. The field plot dataset encompassed all of the major environmental gradients and landscape histories present in KATM. Individual state-factors (e.g., soil pH, slope aspect) and other ecosystem components (e.g., geomorphic unit, vegetation species composition and structure) were measured or categorized using standard classification systems developed for Alaska. We described and analyzed the hierarchical relationships among the ecosystem components to classify 92 Plot Ecotypes (local-scale ecosystems) that best partitioned the variation in soils, vegetation, and disturbance properties observed at the field plots. From the 92 Plot Ecotypes, we developed classifications of Map Ecotypes and Disturbance Landscapes that could be mapped across the park. Additionally, using an existing surficial geology map for KATM, we developed a map of Generalized Soil Texture by aggregating similar surficial geology classes into a reduced set of classes representing the predominant soil textures in each. We then intersected the Ecotype map with the General-ized Soil Texture Map in a GIS and aggregated combinations of Map Ecotypes with similar soils to derive and map Soil Landscapes and Soil Great Groups. The classification of Great Groups captures information on the soil as a whole, as opposed to the subgroup classification which focuses on the properties of specific horizons (Soil Survey Staff 1999). Of the 724 plots included in the Ecotype analysis, sufficient soils data for classifying soil subgroups was available for 467 plots. Soils from 8 orders of soil taxonomy were encountered during the field sampling: Alfisols (<1% of the mapped area), Andisols (3%), Entisols (45%), Gelisols (<1%), Histosols (12%), Inceptisols (22%), Mollisols (<1%), and Spodosols (16%). Within these 8 Soil Orders, field plots corresponded to a total of 74 Soil Subgroups, the most common of which were Typic Cryaquents, Typic Cryorthents, Histic Cryaquepts, Vitrandic Cryorthents, and Typic Cryofluvents.

Abstract:
Over six linear miles of shallow acoustic reflection geophysical data were collected in an 800 ft by 300 ft survey region at Ogdensburg Harbor, Ogdensburg, NY. To better accommodate modern commercial vessels and expand the harbor’s capacity, the current navigable depth of -19 ft Low Water Depth (LWD) needs to be increased to -28 ft LWD, and an accurate map of the nature of the riverbed material (e.g., unconsolidated sediment, partially indurated glacial till, or bedrock) is required to effectively plan for removal. A total of 28 boreholes were previously collected to map the stratigraphy, and the effort revealed significant spatial variability in unit thickness and elevation between adjacent boreholes. To accurately map this variable stratigraphy, chirp sub-bottom profiles were collected throughout the region, with an average line spacing of 13 ft. These sub-bottom data, validated and augmented by the borehole data, resulted in high-resolution spatial maps of stratigraphic elevation and thickness for the study area. The data will allow for more accurate assessment of the type and extent of different dredging efforts required to achieve a future uniform depth of -28 ft LWD for the navigable region.

Abstract:
The Everglades National Park and Big Cypress National Preserve vegetation mapping project is part of the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP). It is a cooperative effort between the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD), the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), and the National Park Service’s (NPS) Vegetation Mapping Inventory Program (VMI). The goal of this project is to produce a spatially and thematically accurate vegetation map of Everglades National Park and Big Cypress National Preserve prior to the completion of restoration efforts associated with CERP. This spatial product will serve as a record of baseline vegetation conditions for the purpose of: (1) documenting changes to the spatial extent, pattern, and proportion of plant communities within these two federally-managed units as they respond to hydrologic modifications resulting from the implementation of the CERP; and (2) providing vegetation and land-cover information to NPS park managers and scientists for use in park management, resource management, research, and monitoring. This mapping project covers an area of approximately 7,400 square kilometers (1.84 million acres [ac]) and consists of seven mapping regions: four regions in Everglades National Park, Regions 1–4, and three in Big Cypress National Preserve, Regions 5–7. The report focuses on the mapping effort associated with the Northwest Coastal Everglades (NWCE), Region 4 , in Everglades National Park. The NWCE encompasses a total area of 1,278 square kilometers (493.7 square miles [sq mi], or 315,955 ac) and is geographically located to the south of Big Cypress National Preserve, west of Shark River Slough (Region 1), and north of the Southwest Coastal Everglades (Region 3). Photo-interpretation was performed by superimposing a 50 × 50-meter (164 × 164-feet [ft] or 0.25 hectare [0.61 ac]) grid cell vector matrix over stereoscopic, 30 centimeters (11.8 inches) spatial resolution, color-infrared aerial imagery on a digital photogrammetric workstation. Photo-interpreters identified the dominant community in each cell by applying majority-rule algorithms, recognizing community-specific spectral signatures, and referencing an extensive ground-truth database. The dominant vegetation community within each grid cell was classified using a hierarchical classification system developed specifically for this project. Additionally, photo-interpreters categorized the absolute cover of cattail (Typha sp.) and any invasive species detected as either: Sparse (10–49%), Dominant (50–89%), or Monotypic (90–100%). A total of 178 thematic classes were used to map the NWCE. The most common vegetation classes are Mixed Mangrove Forest-Mixed and Transitional Bayhead Shrubland. These two communities accounted for about 10%, each, of the mapping area. Other notable classes include Short Sawgrass Marsh-Dense (8.1% of the map area), Mixed Graminoid Freshwater Marsh (4.7% of the map area), and Black Mangrove Forest (4.5% of the map area). The NWCE vegetation map has a thematic class accuracy of 88.4% with a lower 90th Percentile Confidence Interval of 84.5%.

Abstract:
A series of self-guided walking tours through pioneering scientific research in medicine, biology, forensics, nursing and dentistry from the past to the present. Dundee is now celebrated internationally for its pioneering work in medical sciences, in particular the University of Dundee’s ground-breaking research into cancer, diabetes, drug development and surgical techniques. But the city has many more amazing stories of innovation and discovery in medicine and biology, past and present, and the three walking tours presented here will introduce you to some of the most extraordinary. Basic information about each topic is presented on this map, but you will ­find more in-depth information, images and videos on the accompanying website at uod.ac.uk/DundeeDiscoveriesMap For younger explorers, we have also included a Scavenger Hunt – look out for the cancer cell symbols on the map and see if you can ­find the various features listed along the way!
