Abstract:
Abstract In India’s main cities, high-rise reinforced concrete residential buildings with more than 15, 16, or 17 stories are widespread these days, which are aligned parallel to the Indian government’s “Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojna”. The development of an economical and eco-friendly R-C building by providing a limited area of shear walls at the diagonal corners of the structure is evaluated in STAAD-PRO and ETAB in this paper. This work also focuses on the location and minimal area of shear walls along with maximum strength, and its 3-D analysis gives conclusions. The paper concludes that the design of 20-story buildings in STAAD and ETAB with minimum shear walls gives safe results, and Horizontal forces increase the structure’s strength and stiffness requirements.

Abstract. A study of the formation and movement of sequential Sporadic-E layers observed during the night-time hours at two Indian low-latitude stations, SHAR (dip 10°N) and Waltair (dip 20°N) shows that the layer are formed around 19:00 h. IST at altitudes of ~180 km. They descend to the normal E-region altitude of about 100 km in three to four hours and becomes blanketing type of Es before they disappear. However, the absence of these descending layers at an equatorial station, Trivandrum (dip 2°N) gives the experimental evidence for wind shear theory. The meridional neutral wind derived from the height variation of the F-layer showed significant poleward wind during the descent of these layers. Hence it is inferred that these layers are formed as a consequence of the convergence of plasma by the poleward wind and the equatorward propagating gravity waves (inferred from the height fluctuations of F-layer).Key words.

Abstract:
AbstractFrom a basinwide perspective, the dominant mode of Indian Ocean tropical cyclone genesis (TCG) in September–November (SON) shows an equatorially symmetric east–west zonal dipole pattern, which can explain approximately 13% of the SON TCG variance. This zonal dipole TCG pattern is significantly related to the tripole pattern of the sea surface temperature anomalies (SSTAs) in the tropical Indo-Pacific Ocean (IPT). The IPT, which is a combined interbasin mode and presents a dipole pattern of SSTAs in the tropical Indian Ocean and El Niño–like SSTAs in the tropical Pacific Ocean, can influence the local Walker circulation and zonal dipole TCG pattern over the tropical Indian Ocean. Associated with a positive IPT phase, abnormal ascending (descending) motions are induced and favorable for more (less) water vapor transport to the lower–middle level in the western (eastern) tropical Indian Ocean; significant anticyclonic vorticity anomalies are evoked in the lower level over the eastern tropical Indian Ocean, and weak easterly vertical wind shear appears over the tropical Indian Ocean. Thus, abnormally strong upward motion, abundant water vapor in the lower–middle level, and weak vertical wind shear are favorable for more TCG in the western tropical Indian Ocean, while the combined negative contributions of the vertical motion, lower-level vorticity, and humidity terms result in less TCG in the eastern tropical Indian Ocean.

Abstract:
The central Indian Ocean (CIO) mode, an intrinsic coupled mode, plays an important role in the intraseasonal variabilities over the Indian monsoon region. Besides the intraseasonal variabilities, the CIO mode also has pronounced seasonal and interannual variabilities. The CIO mode is active during boreal summer but suppressed during boreal winter. The seasonality is mainly attributable to the barotropic instability, which is caused by the large meridional shear of zonal winds. By decomposing the temporal tendency of the meridional gradient of zonal winds, it is found that the zonal wind shear mainly follows the variation of the horizontal eddy flux, which indicates the importance of the multiscale interaction in tropical dynamics. The interannual variability of the CIO mode also depends on the energy transfer associated with the barotropic instability. The influences of El Niño or La Niña and Indian Ocean dipole–zonal mode (IODZM) on the CIO mode are analyzed. El Niño and La Niña have moderate impacts on the CIO mode. El Niño weakens the CIO mode and La Niña strengthens it via the changes in the low-level zonal wind shear. IODZM does not significantly change the amplitude of the CIO mode but can shift its latitudinal position by modifying the meridional shear of the zonal winds. The low-frequency variabilities of the CIO mode at seasonal and interannual time scales unveil the impacts of the background circulations at the intraseasonal variabilities during the Indian summer monsoon in a multiscale framework. While the low-frequency variabilities of this mode will clearly have an implication for monsoon variability and prediction, further studies are needed to quantify the impacts.

Abstract:
At present, seismic load evaluation for design of Indian buildings are carried out using Indian seismic code. In which, building Time period, Response Reduction factor and Importance factor alters design base shear majorly. Currently IS code defines Importance factor differently as “1” for general buildings and “1.5” for public buildings. This factor makes public buildings as heavier sections as it increases design base shear. However there are no evidence that, how this importance factor affects/alters/improves the seismic behavior of buildings. In this present study, four storey RC frames are designed with different importance factors. Pushover analyses are carried out to find its effects on over strength factor and response reduction factor.

Abstract:
Abstract Mesoscale eddy activity in the southeast Indian Ocean (15°–30°S, 60°–110°E) is investigated based on available satellite altimetry observations. The observed sea level anomaly data show that this region is the only eastern basin among the global oceans where strong eddy activity exists. Furthermore, the eddy kinetic energy (EKE) level in this region displays a distinct seasonal cycle with the maximum in austral summer and minimum in austral winter. It is found that this seasonal modulation of EKE is mediated by baroclinic instability associated with the surface-intensified South Indian Countercurrent (SICC) and the underlying South Equatorial Current (SEC) system. In austral spring and summer the enhanced flux forcing of combined meridional Ekman and geostrophic convergence strengthens the upper-ocean meridional temperature gradient, intensifying the SICC front and its vertical velocity shear. Modulation of the vertical velocity shear results in the seasonal changes in the strength of baroclinic instability, leading to the seasonal EKE variations in the southeast Indian Ocean.

Abstract: This thesis gives a comparative seismic analysis of high rise structure in zone III and zone IV using the New IS 13920- 2016 standards. The recent earthquakes in India revealed unequivocally that conventional structural design and construction techniques fail to meet fundamental seismic resistance standards. The use of ductile design and detailing methods in conventional construction is a critical topic that requires attention. The ductility of reinforced concrete structures as a whole is a difficult topic. However, specific design factors and reinforcing details may be used in particular critical spots of the building structure to reduce seismic damage and life-threatening collapse. The approaches are straightforward, affordable, and extensively detailed in the Indian Bureau of Standard Code of Practice's standard code of practise (IS13920). It is recommended to conduct a comparative analysis of the dynamic behaviour of high-rise structures using the response spectrum approach in accordance with IS 1893 Part1-2016 The investigation of characteristics including displacement, base shear, and tale drift. Examining factors including modal frequencies and acceleration in response spectrum load instances in both the X and Y directions. Ductile design of high rise structures in accordance with IS 13920-2016's new codal requirements. Additionally, it is recommended to analyse and design multi-story buildings using computational software such as ETABS and compare characteristics such as storey displacement, base shear and storey drift. The shear wall at the corner reduces storey X displacement by 46.245%. The intermediate shear wall reduces displacement by 54.617%. The central shear wall reduces displacement by 68.72%. Lower level shear wall displacement is central. Shear wall at corner reduces storey drift in X direction by 49.374%. Shear wall at centre reduces drift by 39.716%. Shear wall at centre reduces drift by 2.638%. Lower story drift in central shear wall. Shear wall at corner base shear drift is 63.646% greater than without shear wall. Base shear is 64.006% higher with a middle shear wall. Shear wall at the centre increases base shear by 65.765%. Center shear wall has stronger base reaction.

Life history theory examines the allocation of resources among competing demands, including growth, immune function, and reproduction. Immune function can itself be divided into innate, cell mediated, and humoral responses. For humans, factors like economic condition, disease exposure. and social milieu are all hypothesized to affect life history allocations. For the Shuar of Amazonian Ecuador these factors are rapidly changing as traditional subsistence hunting and horticulture give way to wage labor and Western medicine. This dissertation presents fieldwork conducted amongst the Shuar between 2005 and 2009. It is among the first studies to test for life history trade-offs between different branches of immunity and growth across market conditions. Shuar data include anthropometrics (n=1,547), biomarkers (n=163), and household compositions (n=292). Comparison samples include the Shiwiar of Ecuador (n=42), non-indigenous Ecuadorian colono children (n=570), the Tsimane of Bolivia (n=329), and the 2005-2006 U.S. NHANES (n=8,336). The dissertation finds significant differences between both populations and Shuar villages in growth and immunity. Increasing market integration is associated with poorer growth, but household factors mediate these changes. Adult males have positive effects on child growth in acculturated areas with wage labor and in distant areas where fishing and hunting remain important but not in intermediate areas. Children have consistent negative effects on one another's growth, suggesting competition for resources. Poorer growth is also associated with higher levels of immunoglobulin E (IgE), a humoral response to helminths. In contrast, C-reactive protein, an inflammatory marker, has a positive association with growth. This divergence between humoral and innate immunity is consistent with a lasting reallocation of immune resources towards a T H 2 response in helminth infected individuals. The age-profile of IgE also varies across market conditions: comparing the Shuar with samples from the U.S. and Bolivia, the age of peak IgE is correlated with the level of peak IgE in each population, providing some of the first evidence for a "peak shift" in immune response. Overall, these results support the hypothesis that local conditions lead to the adaptive "tuning" of trade-offs between branches of immunity and growth. This dissertation includes previously published and unpublished co-authored material.

Abstract:
Le peuple shuar d’Equateur participe du mouvement indigène de revendications politico-identitaires dans un contexte mondialisé de reconnaissance des droits autochtones. Réputé pour la pratique de réduction de têtes humaines, peuple d’idéologie chamanique et guerrière et impliqué dans le renouveau des enjeux politiques nationaux et internationaux, ce peuple impulse depuis 1964 un regroupement fédératif régional. Dans ce cadre les pratiques et représentations chamaniques du monde ont une influence considérable sur la formation des leaders et sur le contenu de leur discours. Cette thèse propose d’analyser cette influence des représentations chamaniques sur les mouvements indigènes pour comprendre dans quelle mesure la notion shuar de penker pujustin – le bien vivre - est déterminante des revendications shuar. A partir de 13 mois de terrain en Amazonie équatorienne, nous analyserons la question du « vivre ensemble » dans un contexte multiculturel. Ce travail est à la frontière de la sociologie, de l’ethnologie et de l’anthropologie, dans les domaines du politique, de la santé, du sacré et du territoire. Les changements à l’œuvre sur le terrain nous placent dans le champ de la sociologie du politique et de la santé. Le fait de travailler sur le peuple Shuar nous oblige à la lecture et à la mobilisation des concepts anthropologiques et ethnologiques. Cette double approche fait de cette recherche une socio-anthropologie politique du bien vivre
The Shuar people of Ecuador participate in native movements of politico-identical demands in a globalized context of natives rights recognizing. Reputed for their practice of human head reducing, people of a shamanic and warrior ideology and implied in the renewal of national and international political stakes, These people impulse since 1964 a regional federative grouping. In this frame, practices and shamanics representations of the world have a considerable influence on the formation of the leaders and on the contents of their speech. This thesis suggests analyzing a specific context of shamanicals representations’ influence on indigenous movements to understand in which measure the shuar notion of penker pujustin – well being - is a determinant of the shuar demands. Totalizing 13 months of ground in ecuadorian Amazonia, we will analyze the question of “living together” in a multicultural context. This work is at the border of ethnology, anthropology and sociology, in the domains of politics, health, sacred and territory. Working on the shuar people obligates to the reading and mobilization of anthropological and ethnological concepts. By the way, the changes operating on this ground places us in the conceptual field of political and health sociology. This double approach makes of this research a political socio-anthropology of good living
En un contexto mundializado de reconocimiento de derechos específicos a los pueblos autóctonos, el pueblo shuar del Ecuador participo a los movimientos indígenas de reivindicaciones politico-identitarias e impulsa en su tiempo el proceso de agrupamiento federativo en la región amazónica. Reputados por su práctica de reducción de cabezas humanas, ese pueblo de ideología chamanica y guerrera está implicado en el renuevo de las puesta políticas nacionales e internacionales. El chamanismo, como prácticas y representaciones del mundo, tiene una influencia considerable sobre la formación de los líderes y también sobre el contenido de sus discursos. Esta tesis se propone analizar ese contexto particular de la influencia de la representaciones chamanicas sobre los movimientos indígenas a partir de la noción shuar del penker pujustin - buen vivir, para entender en qué medida esa es determinante de las reivindicaciones de este pueblo. Saliendo de algunas fases de terreno (totalizando 13 meses), buscaremos entender el pasaje de un sentimiento de pertenencia comunitaria shuar (dividida en clanes familiares y grupos de afinidad socialmente determinados), hasta reivindicaciones de pertenencia y de integración nacional, por la participación activa a la vida política nacional e internacional. Es bien la cuestión de “vivir juntos” que interrogaremos, en suma como mantener la cohesión social en un contexto multicultural. Este trabajo es a la frontera de la etnología, de la antropología y de la sociología, en los dominios del político, de la salud, del sagrado y del territorio. El hecho de trabajar con este pueblo shuar nos obliga a la lectura y a la movilización de conceptos antropológicos y etnológicos. No obstante la evolución, los cambios a la obra sobre el terreno nos colocan también en el campo conceptual de la sociología del político y de la salud. Este doble enfoque hace de esta investigación un socio-antropología del buen vivir

Cette thèse est une étude interdisciplinaire sur cinq corpus d'images photographiques produites dans le cadre de missions ethnographiques et catholiques qui ont visité ou travaillé auprès des populations Kichwa de la province de Napo, et Shuar de la province de Morona Santiago, en amazonie équatorienne, entre 1900 et 1940. En partant d'un questionnement autour de la valeur que ces images peuvent avoir à l'heure actuelle, nous étudions les usages et fonctions qu'elles ont pu accomplir depuis le moment de leur production. Nous nous concentrons sur une économie visuelle de ces images dans le sens de révéler leurs valeurs d'usage et d'échange, les façons dont elles ont été « exploitées » ou les réseaux dans lesquels elles ont circulé. Nous menons une étude comparée entre les diverses situations de production et exploitation des images, notamment dans le cadre des publications scientifiques et religieuses. Dans un deuxième temps nous analysons les valeurs que les images peuvent avoir actuellement pour les descendants des peuples indigènes représentés. Pour ce faire nous questionnons la nature même de l'image et son rapport à la mémoire individuelle et collective, et, grâce à un travail de terrain auprès des communautés Kichwa et Shuar actuelles, nous analyons l'expérience mémorielle résultante du visionnage de ces images dans la situation particulière de cette enquête. En dernier lieu nous étudions les rapports existants entre l'image photographique des peuples indigènes des basses terres amazoniennes et la production d'imaginaires liées à l'altérité exotique de ces peuples, ainsi que sur les conséquences que ces imaginaires peuvent avoir eu dans la production de la connaissance scientifique sur eux durant la période étudiée
This dissertation is an interdisciplinary study of five corpuses of archival photographs produced by ethnographic expeditions and catholic missions while working with or about Kichwa groups of Napo province, and Shuar groups of Morona Santiago province, in Ecuadorian Amazonia between 1990-1940. Starting from a discussion about the contemporary value of these archival images, we review the diverse uses and functions these images have fulfilled since their production. We focus on a visual economy of the images: the aim to reveal their use and exchange values, the ways by which they have been "exploited" or the networks in which they have circulated. We led then a comparartive study of the diverse production and exploitation situations these images have been related to, mainly by means of their inclusion in scientific or religious publications. Secondly, we analyze the value these archival images may have today for the descendants of the indigenous peoples appearing in the images. In order to do so we study the nature of the image and its connection with individual and collective memory. As a result of fieldwork that we conducted for this purpose amongst Kichwa and Shuar communities, we analyze the memory experience provoked by the viewing of the images in relation to this particular ethnographic situation. Finalyy, w estudy the connection between photographic images about indigenous peoples of the Amazon and the production of imaginaries linked to the exotic alterity of these groups. We also analyze the consequences these imaginaries linked to the exotic alterity of these groups. We also analyze the consequences these imaginaries may have had in the scientific knowledge produced about them during the period of time mentioned above

Abstract:
O objetivo do presente trabalho foi determinar a força de cisalhamento Warner-Bratzler do músculo Longissimus lumborum de animais zebuínos machos inteiros (Bos indicus) durante o período de maturação, nas faixas de pH final (pHf 48 horas post mortem) normal (pH entre 5,5 e 5,8) e anormal (pH entre 5,81 e 6,19) e temperaturas internas de cozimento. Concomitante com a avaliação de força de cisalhamento, foram avaliadas também a degradação da desmina e troponina T, o comprimento do sarcômero, o teor de colágeno total e solúvel, as temperaturas máximas de desnaturação das proteínas e a morfologia geral de agregação das fibras do músculo no cozimento. A degradação da desmina e troponina T foi maior no pHf normal, aparecendo produtos de degradação a partir do dia 7 nessa faixa de pHf. Não houve diferenças nos valores de comprimento do sarcômero, descartando-se assim, a contribuição desse parâmetro sobre a temperatura máxima de desnaturação (Tmáx) das proteínas, determinada utilizando calorímetro exploratório diferencial (DSC). Similarmente, não foram encontradas diferenças para os teores de colágeno total e solúvel, e os valores de colágeno total foram baixos, sugerindo que sua contribuição na segunda transição térmica e nos valores de força de cisalhamento foi mínima. As Tmáx1 e Tmáx2, correspondentes à desnaturação da meromiosina leve e pesada, respectivamente, foram menores no pHf normal, mas o efeito foi maior para a Tmáx2. A Tmáx3 da actina e titina aumentou até 14 dias post mortem na faixa de pHf normal, e posteriormente diminuiu significativamente após 21 dias, sugerindo possível degradação dessas proteínas nesse período de dias. Não foram encontradas diferenças nos valores de Tmáx no pHf anormal, em todos os dias post mortem, o que sugere a contribuição de um possível mecanismo de proteção que estabiliza as miofibrilas no aquecimento. Houve maior agregação das fibras do músculo no pHf normal nas temperaturas internas de cozimento de 65 e 80°C, provavelmente devido à maior desnaturação térmica das miofibrilas. Os valores de força de cisalhamento foram maiores com o aumento da temperatura interna de cozimento, devido ao aumento da desnaturação térmica das miofibrilas do músculo. Independente da temperatura interna de cozimento, os valores de força de cisalhamento foram altos em quase todos os dias post mortem para ambas as faixas de pHf, o que sugere a necessidade de utilizar métodos físicos ou químicos para aumentar a maciez do músculo Longissimus lumborum de animais zebuínos.
The aim of this work was to determine the Warner-Bratzler shear force of Longissimus lumborum muscle of Zebu bulls during ageing, at the normal (pH between 5.5 e 5.8) and abnormal (pH between 5.81 e 6.19) ultimate pH (pHu) groups (pH 48 hours post mortem) and internal temperatures of cooking. Concomitant with the Warner-Bratzler shear force evaluation, the degradation of desmin and troponin T, sarcomere length, total and soluble collagen content, maximum temperature of proteins denaturation, and aggregation of muscle fibers during cooking were also evaluated. The degradation of desmin and troponin T was higher in the normal pHu, appearing degradation products at day 7. There were no differences in the sarcomere length values, discarding the contribution of this parameter on the maximum temperature of proteins denaturation (Tmax) determined by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). Similarly, no differences were found for total and soluble collagen contents, and the total collagen values were low, suggesting that its contribution in the second thermal transition and in the shear force values was minimal. The Tmax1 and Tmax2, corresponding to the denaturation of light and heavy meromyosin, respectively, were lower in the normal pHu group, but the effect was higher for Tmax2. The Tmax3 of actin and titin increased up to 14 days post mortem in the normal pHu group, which subsequently significantly decreased after 21 days, suggesting the possible degradation of these proteins in that period of time. No differences were found in the Tmax values for the abnormal pHu group at all days post mortem, suggesting the contribution of a possible protective mechanism that stabilizes the myofibrils during heating. There was higher aggregation of muscle fibers in the normal pHu, at internal temperatures of cooking of 65 and 80°C, probably due to a higher thermal denaturation of myofibrils. The shear force values were higher with the increase of the internal temperature of cooking due to the increased denaturation of the muscle myofibrils. Regardless of internal temperature of cooking, the shear force values were higher in almost all days post mortem for both pHu groups, which suggest the need of physical or chemical methods to increase the tenderness of Longissimus lumborum muscle of Zebu bulls.

Abstract:
Beef quality in Brazil is important for both consumers and the food industry due to high demand and competitiveness in the domestic and international markets. Therefore, it is necessary to develop research to improve beef quality of Nellore cattle (Bos indicus), mainly tenderness, one of the main features to add value to meat. New-generation technologies provide accurate, rapid and inexpensive information on the entire genome, showing great advantage over conventional methods for sequencing and gene expression. However, these new technologies generate large database, which require the use of bioinformatics tools for data analyses of sequencing and for a better understanding of biological regulation mechanisms , cellular control, gene interactions, among other applications. In a previous study, samples were collected from the Longissimus dorsi muscle of 790 animals from Nellore cattle and shear force assessments were made 24 hours after slaughter, with seven and 14 days of aging. Aiming to identify differentially expressed (DE) genes, 34 samples from Nellore animals with extreme levels of estimated breeding value (EBV) for shear force (SF) were selected, sequenced by the method of RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) (Illumina HiScanSQ). This study performed the processing of data generated by RNA-Seq using software QuasiSeq and Cuffdiff. In the QuasiSeq analysis, 22 DE genes were found, while in the Cuffdiff analysis, 113 DE genes were found. To better understand the biological process involved in meat tenderness, integrative analysis identified possible regulators that can explain the activity of transcriptional regulation in this process using partial correlation coefficient with information theory (PCIT), phenotypic impact factor (PIF) and regulatory impact factor (RIF) methods. The genes found in the PCIT analysis USP2, GBR10, ANO1 and TMBIM4; microRNAs found in RIF analysis bta-mir-133a-2 and bta-mir-22, and the genes with high PIF value MB, ENO3, CA3 could be fundamental to unravel the complex molecular mechanisms that control the meat tenderness in Nellore cattle.

Portanto, é necessário o desenvolvimento de pesquisas para melhorar a qualidade da carne bovina da raça Nelore (Bos indicus), principalmente a maciez, que é considerada uma das principais responsáveis por agregar valor à carne. Tecnologias de nova geração proporcionam informações precisas, rápidas e baratas de todo genoma, mostrando grande vantagem em relação aos métodos convencionais de sequenciamento e de estudos de expressão gênica. Essas novas tecnologias geram um grande volume de dados, sendo necessário o uso de ferramentas de bioinformática para realizar as análises de sequenciamento e ter uma maior compreensão de mecanismos biológicos de regulação, controle celular, interações gênicas, entre outras aplicações. Em um estudo prévio, foram coletadas amostras do músculo Longissimus dorsi de 790 animais da raça Nelore e foram realizadas avaliações da força de cisalhamento 24 horas após abate, e com sete e 14 dias de maturação. Com o objetivo de identificar genes diferencialmente expressos (DE), foram selecionadas no total 34 amostras de animais da raça Nelore com valores extremos de valor genético estimado (EBV) para força de cisalhamento (SF), e sequenciados pelo método de sequenciamento de RNA (RNA-Seq) (Illumina HiScanSQ). Neste estudo foi realizado o processamento dos dados gerados pelo RNA-Seq através dos softwares QuasiSeq e Cuffdiff. Foram encontrados 22 genes DE para as análises do QuasiSeq e 113 genes DE para as análises do Cuffdiff. Para melhor compreensão dos processos biológicos envolvidos na maciez da carne, análises integrativas identificaram possíveis reguladores que podem explicar a atividade de regulação transcricional neste processo utilizando os métodos do Coeficiente de Correlação Parcial com Teoria da Informação (PCIT), Fator de Impacto Fenotípico (PIF) e Fator de Impacto Regulatório (RIF). Os genes encontrados nas análises análises do PCIT USP2, GBR10, ANO1 e TMBIM4, assim como os microRNAs encontrados nas análises do RIF, bta-mir-133a-2 e bta-mir-22 e os genes de maior valor de PIF MB, ENO3, CA3 podem ser fundamentais para desvendar os complexos mecanismos moleculares que controlam a maciez da carne na raça Nelore.

Abstract:
O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a posição da suspensão de carcaças durante o período de resfriamento, no primeiro experimento lados alternados de dez animais Nelores machos castrados, foram suspensos pelo método tradicional (Tendão de Aquiles) ou dispostos horizontalmente em pallets, no segundo experimento lados alternados de 16 animais machos castrados e 16 fêmeas foram suspensos pelo método tradicional (Tendão de Aquiles) ou pelo músculo Carpo Radial. Amostras do músculo Longissimus dorsi na 12ª costela foram coletadas de todos os lados (42 lados esquerdos e 42 lados direitos) após o período de 24 horas de resfriamento, estas amostras foram embaladas a vácuo e maturadas por sete dias antes de serem congeladas e armazenadas até a realização das analises de força de cisalhamento, perdas de água por cocção e índice de fragmentação miofibrilar (MFI). Para a primeira experiência nenhuma diferença foi observada para espessura de gordura subcutânea, perdas de água por cocção, força de cisalhamento e MFI.Na segunda experiência não houve diferença para espessura de gordura entre os tratamentos, mas as fêmeas apresentavam maior espessura que os machos. Para perdas de água por cocção e força de cisalhamento não houve diferença, mas observando o MFI existe diferença entre os machos e fêmeas e também entre os métodos de pendura. A média de MFI para o tratamento de suspensão pelo Carpo Radial foi maior do que a suspensão pelo tendão de Aquiles.
The objective of this work was to evaluate the carcass hanging position during the chilling period in which 1st experiment: alternate sides of ten Nellore steers were hang either by the traditional way (Achilles tendon) or placed horizontally over pallets or 2nd experiment: alternate sides of 16 Nellore steers and 16 Nellore heifers were hang either by the Achilles tendon or by the Carpus radial muscle of the forequarter. Longissimus dorsi muscle samples at the 12th rib level were removed from all sides (42 left and 42 right sides) after a 24 hr chilling period, vacuum packaged and aged for 7 days before being frozen and kept for future analysis of shear force, cooking losses and Myofibril fragmentation index (MFI). For the first experiment no differences were observed for fat thickness, cooking losses, shear force and MFI. In the second experiment there was not differences for fat thickness between treatments but heifers showed a thicker fat layer than steers. For cooking losses and shear force there was not differences although for the MFI and hanging position between heifers and steers were observed. The MFI average of the treatment hang by the Carpus radial muscle were higher than the treatment hang by the Achilles tendon.

Abstract:
O Brasil ocupa a segunda posição mundial na produção de carne bovina, a implantação de novas ferramentas para a seleção de animais zebuínos (Bos indicus) com carne de melhor qualidade tem uma importante contribuição para a competividade da pecuária de corte. Neste contexto, compreender os padrões de expressão de microRNAs específicos envolvidos nos processos que afetam a maciez da carne é fundamental para a sua produção, uma vez que essa característica organoléptica é de grande valor na aceitação deste alimento pelos consumidores. O advento das tecnologias de sequenciamento de nova geração em conjunto com o uso de ferramentas de bioinformática tem permitido o estudo do genoma em larga escala de forma mais rápida e com menor custo. Para este estudo, foram utilizadas amostras do músculo Longissimus dorsi de 34 animais da raça Nelore com medidas extremas de valor genético estimado (EBV) para força de cisalhamento (FC). Os RNAs totais foram extraídos, as bibliotecas de microRNA foram construídas e os sequenciamentos foram realizados em equipamento da plataforma Illumina (MiSeq). O processamento dos dados foi feito por meio dos softwares FastQC, Cutadapt e miRDeep2 e as análises de expressão diferencial foram realizadas por meio do programa estatístico QuasiSeq. Utilizando um critério de taxa de descoberta de falsos positivos (FDR) inferior a 0,1, três microRNAs (bta-mir-182, bta-mir-183, bta-mir-338) foram identificados como diferencialmente expressos entre os grupos de animais com valores extremos de EBV para FC. Um total de 1204 genes alvos foi previsto e análises funcionais de enriquecimento foram realizadas por ferramentas de bioinformática. Várias redes e vias metabólicas como a sinalização de apoptose e regulação dos mecanismos celulares pela protease calpaína foram obtidas, demonstrando assim que os genes alvos identificados estariam envolvidos em muitos processos metabólicos relacionados com a maciez da carne bovina.
Brazil occupies the second world position in beef production and thus, the implementation of new tools to select zebuine animals (Bos indicus) with better beef quality has an important contribution to the competitiveness of beef cattle. Inside this context, to comprehend the microRNAs expression patterns involved in the processes that are related to beef tenderness is essential to the meat production since this organoleptic characteristic has a high value in meat acceptance by the consumers. The advent of new generation sequencing technologies along with the biotechnology tools usage has allowed large-scale genome studies as well as faster and cheaper analysis. In this study, samples of the Longissimus dorsi muscle from 34 animals of Nellore cattle breed with extreme estimated genetic value (EBV) for shear force (FC) were used. The total RNAs were extracted, libraries of microRNA were built and finally the sequencing was performed using the Illumina (MiSeq) platform equipment. Data processing was done using FastQC, Cutadapt and miRDeep2 softwares while the differential expression analyzes were realized through the statistical package QuasiSeq. Using a false discovery rate (FDR) criteria below 0.1, three microRNAs (bta-mir- 182, bta-mir-183, bta-mir-338) were identified as differentially expressed among the group of animals with extreme EBV values for FC. A total of 1024 target genes were predicted and functional analyzes of enrichment were performed using bioinformatics tools. Many metabolic networks and pathways such as the apoptosis signalization and cell regulation mechanisms by calpain protease were obtained, demonstrating therefore that the identified target genes would be involved in many metabolic processes related with the beef tenderness.

This study aimed to evaluate and to compare carcass traits and meat quality in cattle Nellore and F1 cross between Nellore and Araguaia, where 17 were from the Nellore group and 19 from ½ Nellore ½ Araguaia. All animals belonged to the same birth season and were finished in pasture systems, under the same nutritional, environmental, and management conditions. When the animals reached slaughter weight, they were taken to the industrial slaughterhouse where food was withdrawn for a 24 hour period (free access to water), later they were stunned, bled, the leather was removed and were eviscerated. The carcasses were weighed (hot weight), kept in chilled storage for approximately 24 hours at 4°C, and weighed once again to obtain the chilled carcass weight. The variables analyzed were carcass yield, length and width, leg length, thigh perimeter, loin eye area (LEA), retail cuts, cooling loss, pH, fat depth, marbling rate, intramuscular fat, color, shear force and sensory analysis. Differences (p > 0.05) were observed for the following variables; slaughter weight, hot and chilled carcass weights, carcass and leg lengths, thigh perimeter, LEA, retail cuts and lightness (L*), where the F1 cross between Nellore and Araguaia showed higher means for all of these traits, except for leg length and L*. Therefore, the crossbreeding between Nellore and Araguaia cattle did not affect the meat s sensory characteristics, but contributed to the improvement in carcass traits, being an alternative for farmers that aim for meat quality, with higher meat percentage.
Objetivou-se avaliar e comparar as características de carcaça e de qualidade da carne de bovinos Nelore e F1 resultantes do cruzamento entre as raças Nelore e Araguaia. Foram avaliados 17 animais do grupo Nelore e 19 ½ Nelore ½ Araguaia, que foram terminados à pasto, estando sob o mesmo regime nutricional, ambiente, manejo e pertenciam a mesma estação de nascimento. Quando atingiram o peso de abate, foram pesados e conduzidos ao frigorífico, onde permaneceram sob dieta hídrica por 24 horas, foram insensibilizados, sangrados, tiveram o couro removido e foram eviscerados. As carcaças foram pesadas, mantidas em câmara fria por aproximadamente 24 horas, à temperatura de 4 º C, e pesadas para obtenção do peso de carcaça fria. As variáveis analisadas foram: rendimento, comprimento e largura de carcaça, comprimento de perna, perímetro de coxão, área de olho de lombo (AOL), cortes comerciais, perdas no resfriamento, pH, espessura de gordura, taxa de marmoreio, gordura intramuscular, cor, força de cisalhamento e análise sensorial. Foram observadas diferenças (p > 0,05) para as variáveis peso de abate, quente e frio, comprimento de carcaça, e de perna, perímetro de coxão, AOL, de cortes comerciais e luminosidade (L*), sendo que os animais ½ Nelore ½ Araguaia apresentaram médias superiores para todas essas características, exceto para comprimento de perna e L*. Portanto, o cruzamento entre animais Nelore e Araguaia não influenciou nas características sensoriais das carnes e contribuiu para o aumento de características de carcaça, sendo uma alternativa ao produtor rural na obtenção de carne de qualidade, com maior percentual cárneo.

Abstract:
AbstractA new precast hollow insulation shear wall (PHISW) is proposed in this paper. To study the seismic behaviors of the new PHISW, two cast-in-place solid shear wall (CSW) specimens, two precast monolithic hollow insulated shear wall (PMW) specimens, and two precast hollow insulated shear wall (PSW) specimens with vertical seams were produced and subjected to low-cyclic reversed loadings. The seismic indices obtained from low-cyclic reversed tests include the failure pattern, hysteretic curves and energy dissipation. The experiment results indicate that flexural failure is the main failure mode of the specimens, but a noticeable difference is detected in the cracking distribution between the three types of shear walls. The bearing capacity of each characteristic point of PMW and PSW is comparable to that of CSW. The ductility coefficient of the newly proposed precast shear wall is slightly lower than that of CSW.

The Mafic–Ultramafic Complex (SMUC) in Salem District is significant in the Southern Granulite Terrane (SGT), India. It is located in the northern part of the Cauvery Suture Zone (CSZ), is also known as the Chalk Hills of Salem. This study is an attempt to review the petrographic characteristics of the mafic- ultramafic rocks which covers the SGT, especially northern side of the of peninsular India. The study of the petrographic characterization of present rock types aims to understand the textural and mineralogical variations present through the traverse covering the Madurai block, Palghat-Cauvery shear zone and Madras block. Various mafic-ultramafic complexes are located in Peninsular India's SGT. Among these, three essential complexes are Salem Mafic-Ultramafic Complex (SMUC), Sitampundi Anorthosite Complex (STAC) and Bhavani Mettupalayam Ultramafic Complex (BMUC). The different rock types like Anorthosite, Dolerite, Magnesite, Banded Magnetite Quartzite (BMQ), Laterite were concentrated from these complexes

Abstract:
This paper presents the results of two series of cyclic triaxial shear tests carried out under both uniform and Varied cyclic shear loading and these bring out the influence of load cycles on strain and undrained strength of a cemented marine clay from East coast of India. The undrained shear strength and deformation behaviour of Indian coastal marine clay have been established through a detailed shear testing carried out. In order to estimate the effect brought in by varied cyclic loading, it becomes necessary to conduct reference standard tests under uniform cyclic loading at various cyclic stress ratios (CSR) on identical soil specimens and these stress levels are chosen in such a way that there is no failure taking place during testing. In field situations, storm wave loading is considered to be irregular cyclic loading in which there is a continuous variation in the load level from one cycle to the other. The results obtained from tests under uniform cyclic loading are compared with the results obtained from tests under varied cyclic loading.

<p>Comparative studies of the old Indian standard IS 1893:2002 and the existing IS 1893:2016 have been presented for high-rise buildings in India; however, they have not been presented for high-rise buildings in Sri Lanka. This case study compares the old and existing IS standards, as well as Australian standard AS 1170:2007, and EURO code EU 8:2004, in terms of lateral effect focusing on the base shear values of seismic forces on a 43-storey high-rise building with three basement levels located in Colombo, Sri Lanka. This project was analyzed and designed in 2006; however, only bored pile load testing and tangent pile walls were completed before the project was suspended. This comparative study of the building uses the response spectrum method, which was performed by ETABS 18,1,1. The purpose of this paper is to identify the major changes in the evolution of IS 1893, and how the revisions have made IS 1893:2016 a more reliable earthquake code than IS 1893:2002.</p>

Abstract Ideally, a tactile stimulator presents information through control of surface normal stress and surface shear stresses. Psychophysical experiments measured the effect of shear stress information on the perception of static stimuli applied normal to the surface. Wax gratings in two different orientations and various spatial frequencies were used as stimuli. Elastic layers, representing the anti-aliasing filter on a tactile display, were placed over the stimuli. Using an elastic layer which reduces shear stress transmission improved perception compared to standard elastic layers. Spatial resolution differences due to different elastic layers are explained by modulation indices determined from the predicted sub-surface strain using an elastic half-plane model.

Full text
Abstract:
Corrosion in the girders of steel girder bridges often occurs due to the deicing salts, water, and other debris that leak through the deck joints into the web and bottom flange at the girder ends. Corrosion causes loss of cross-sectional area leading to a reduction in section properties of the member, which eventually results in a reduction in structural resistance against shear and bearing. In this study, seven full-scale tests were performed on decommissioned steel girders acquired from bridges scheduled for demolition in Indiana. Two of the four girders had severe corrosion with cracks and holes in the bottom of the web induced by corrosion, while four girders had moderate section loss induced artificially. All seven girders were subjected to shear loading to determine the residual shear and bearing capacity. Test results revealed a reduction in strength due to section loss compared to nominal sections. Failure modes observed during these four large-scale experiments were shear buckling, shear rupture, and web local crippling. Finite element models were developed and benchmarked to the experimental results. Parametric studies were performed for unstiffened and stiffened girders and included different corrosion scenarios by varying parameters such as corrosion height, length, and thickness loss. Results were analyzed to investigate the effect of each parameter and a modification factor was developed to estimate the residual shear and bearing capacity of corroded girders.

Abstract:
According to federal law, routine commercial vehicles must adhere to certain limits on their load configuration in order to operate legally on interstate highways. However, states may allow for heavier or different load configurations provided that bridges on the state and county highway system are load rated and, if necessary, posted with vehicles that appropriately represent these loads. The state of Indiana allows several classes of vehicles to operate with loads that exceed federal limits, and, presently, several LFD design loads are used to represent these exceptions as state legal loads. This study evaluates the MBE rating loads for their ability to encompass Indiana’s exception vehicles and recommends a set of state rating loads which can replace the current state legal loads and, combined with the MBE rating loads, satisfactorily encompass the load effects due to these exceptions. Comparing moment and shear envelopes on a representative set of bridges, the MBE rating vehicles were found to be insufficient for representing Indiana’s exception vehicles. Three new rating loads are proposed which encompass the exception vehicles efficiently and represent realistic legal loads. Conversely, acceptable HS-20 rating factors are also provided as an alternative to the adoption of these new vehicles. These rating factors, all 1.0 or greater, can ensure a similar level of safety by requiring a specific amount of excess capacity for the HS-20 design load.

Abstract:
This project focused on evaluating the effects of fire-induced damage on concrete bridge elements, including prestressed concrete bridge girders. A series of controlled heating experiments, pool fire tests, material tests, and structural loading tests were conducted. Experimental results indicate that the portion of concrete subjected to temperatures higher than 400°C loses significant amounts of calcium hydroxide (CH). Decomposition of CH increases porosity and causes significant cracking. The portion of concrete exposed to temperatures higher than 400°C should be repaired or replaced. When subjected to ISO-834 standard fire heating, approximately 0.25 in. and 0.75 in. of concrete from the exposed surface are damaged after 40 minutes and 80 minutes of heating, respectively. Prestressed concrete girders exposed to about 50 minutes of hydrocarbon fire undergo superficial concrete material damage with loss of CH and extensive cracking and spalling extending to the depth of 0.75–1.0 in. from the exposed surface. These girders do not undergo significant reduction in flexural strength or shear strength. The reduction in the initial stiffness may be notable due to concrete cracking and spalling. Bridge inspectors can use these findings to infer the extent of material and structural damage to prestressed concrete bridge girders in the event of a fire and develop a post-fire assessment plan.
