Full textDeep drilling (Drilling distance >= 5 x Øtool) with BTA system (Boring Trepanning Association) occurs when you produce parts with good productive performance combined with good machining quality. Mechanical industries operate in a context of constant competition, with ever greater technical and economic requirements. This study illustrates the desire of many industrial players (AREVA and CIRTES) and university (LEMTA, Université de Lorraine), to advance in the understanding of machining mechanisms that govern this process. A literature review revealed that this technology offers a vast and relatively unexplored field of investigation and study. The aim of this study is to analyze and modelling the phenomena which occurring in a deep drilling operation. An analysis of the morphology of the chips has introduced a new parameter for assessing the mechanical stresses suffered by the material being machined . The proposed approach allows to define the mechanical stress torsor by integrating the real cutting geometry, for all cut surfaces of active drilling head BTA. The principles of modeling used allow a relatively easy application to many materials and from the identification of a minimum parameters. Original experimental methods have allowed the identification of parameters and adjust and examine the validity of modeling. The limitations of the law of behavior have been used in evidence, and the prospects for further studies have been proposed. Nevertheless, all the results of this study open, modestly, interesting perspectives, especially in the field of helping for the choice of optimum cutting parameters, and help in the understanding of the physical phenomena of the cut

Full textInspirant-se en un ecosistema natural aquàtic, el bucle MELiSSA produeix aliments, aigua i oxigen a partir de la degradació dels residus orgànics (biomassa no comestible, femta, orina i CO2) utilitzant l'activitat combinada de diferents microorganismes i plantes superiors, que colonitzen cinc compartiments interconectats. L'objectiu d'aquesta tesi és avançar en el desenvolupament dels compartiments fotosintètics del bucle per tal de ser integrats a la MPP. Concretament, el treball s'ha estructurat en 3 unitats principals.
I - Compartiment d'Arthrospira:
S'han realitzat cultius en continu a diferents velocitats de dilució i intensitats lumíniques (seleccionades segons un disseny central composat tipus Box Wilson) per determinar els límits operacionals i la màxima productivitat del fotobioreactor a escala pilot d'Arthrospira. La productivitat més alta aconseguida fou de 27 mg·L-1·h-1 a una velocitat de dilució de 0.044 h-1 i 194 W·m-2. S'ha estudiat la resposta dels cultius davant de pertorbacions afectant el pH i els cabals de líquid i gas. De forma més detallada, s'ha avaluat l'efecte de l'amoni en la producció i composició de l'Arthrospira, determinant que per tal d'evitar l'inhibició del creixement d'Arthrospira cal mantenir les concentracions d'amoni a l'estat estacionari per sota de 5.6 mM.
II - Compartiment de Plantes Superiors:
S'han realitzat cultius de remolatxa i enciam dins de cambres de plantes estanques per obtenir dades de referència de productivitat, composició, consum de nutrients i fixació de carboni. La productivitat mitjana entre els 3 cultius en discontinu i els 2 en etapes és de 15.31 g dw·m-2·d-1 per remolatxa i de 13.85 g dw·m-2·d-1 per enciam. La mesura de la fixació neta de carboni és una bona tècnica per estimar el creixement i la producció de les plantes dintre les cambres sense utilitzar mètodes destructius. A més, s'ha provat que el consum de nutrients permet estimar el contingut mineral total dins la cambra utilitzant la producció de biomassa. També s'ha avaluat l'adequació d'un model fotosintètic per estimar la producció de biomassa dins la cambra. S'ha conclòs que el model hiperbòlic és adequat per descriure la resposta fotosintètica d'una fulla a diferents intensitats lumíniques. A més l'estimació dels corresponents paràmetres ha permès determinar que ni el rendiment quàntic (?), ni la velocitat fotosintètica màxima (Pmax) ni la velocitat de respiració (Rd) depenen de l'edat de la planta i únicament la Pmax depèn de la concentració de CO2.
III - Integració dels Compartiments Fotosintètics:
S'han dimensionat i dissenyat les cambres de plantes que s'integraran pròximament a la MPP. Les 3 cambres de plantes amb una àrea de producció de 5 m2 cada una tindran una producció de biomassa comestible (remolatxa, enciam i blat) equivalent al 20% dels requeriments diaris d'un humà. La configuració seleccionada (una cambra allargada amb dues subcàmares estanques a cada banda) permetrà obtenir una producció semicontínua de biomassa i assegurar d'estanqueïtat del sistema. Finalment, s'ha avaluat l'impacte de la integració dels compartiments fotosintètics a la MPP desenvolupant un model que permet calcular els balanços de nitrogen, CO2 i O2 dins del bucle i determinar en quines condicions és possible aconseguir el tancament dels mateixos.
The MELiSSA project (Micro-Ecological Life Support System Alternative) of the European Space Agency is an artificial ecosystem conceived as a tool to study and develop technology for a future biological life support system required for long term manned space missions. The fact that the MELiSSA project is formed by several independent organizations of different countries made possible that part of the experimental work of this thesis was carried out in the MELiSSA Pilot Plant (MPP) located at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (Spain) and the Controlled Environmental Systems Research Facility located at University of Guelph (Canada).
Based on the principle of an aquatic ecosystem, MELiSSA aims to produce food, fresh water and oxygen from organic wastes (inedible biomass, faeces, urine and CO2) using the combined activity of several microorganisms and higher plants, which colonize five interconnected compartments. The main contribution of this thesis is in the engineering of the photosynthetic compartments and their integration into MPP. Particularly, the work has been structured in the following three main units.
I - Arthrospira Compartment:
Several continuous cultures have been carried out at different dilution rates and light intensities, planned using a Box-Wilson Central Composite Design, to determine the operational limits and maximum productivity of Arthrospira pilot plant photobioreactor. The highest Arthrospira productivity attained is 27 mg·L-1·h-1 at a dilution rate of 0.044 h-1 and a light intensity of 194 W·m-2. Disturbances of normal operating conditions affecting pH, liquid and gas flow rate influence Arthrospira growth has been studied. The effect of ammonium on Arthrospira production and composition has been evaluated in detail and it is determined that to avoid inhibition of the Arthrospira growth, the steady-state ammonium concentration must be lower than 5.6 mM.
II - Higher Plant Compartment:
Three batch and two staggered cultures in sealed environment chambers have been performed to collect baseline data of productivity, tissue composition, nutrient uptake and canopy photosynthesis from beet and lettuce trials. The mean total plant productivity among batch and staggered cultures is 15.31 g dw·m-2·d-1 for beet and 13.85 g dw·m-2·d-1 for lettuce. The net carbon exchange rate technique is a good alternative to classical growth analysis for estimating plant growth and production inside the chamber without using destructive analyses. In addition to this, the ionic uptake of the nutrient solution has been proven to be a good predictor of total canopy mineral content using the estimated biomass. Moreover, the photosynthetic study performed at leaf level has contributed to estimates of light energy related parameters for the canopy model. The rectangular hyperbola model is suitable in defining the leaf photosynthetic response to light at different CO2 levels and crop ages. No significant differences are detected for the quantum yield (?) and dark respiration rate (Rd) among CO2 levels, but in contrast, the maximum photosynthetic rate (Pmax) was found to depend on CO2 concentration. Moreover, it is observed that that ?, Pmax and Rd values remain constant through crop development.
III - Photosynthetic Compartments Integration:
The HPC prototype to be integrated into the MPP has been designed. It is concluded that 3 HPC prototypes with 5 m2 of growing area each, will be constructed to provide 20% of the daily crew diet with beet, lettuce and wheat. The selected configuration, an elongated chamber with two air-locks at each end, allows the semi-continuous biomass production while ensuring gas environment isolation. Finally, the impact of the integration of the photosynthetic compartments into the MPP has been evaluated using a static mass balance model for assessing the nitrogen, CO2 and O2 balances, while determining the conditions under which the closure of the mass balances can be expected.

Full textExercise is associated with increases of ventilation, heart rate and blood pressure. Ventilation increases adaptedly to increased oxygen uptake (VO2) and carbon dioxide output (VCO2) and eventually to limit metabolic acidosis occurring above the ventilatory threshold. Cardiac output increases to meet the contracting muscles’ requirement for flow. The increase in cardiac output occurs through increases in both heart rate and stroke volume and is regulated by feed-forward mechanisms: central command and exercise pressor reflex.
Skeletal muscle contraction elicits a reflex increase in sympathetic outflow which causes vasoconstriction contributing to the exercise induced rise in blood pressure. This reflex is triggered by stimulation of metabo- and chemoreceptors. Although the precise stimulus is not known, adrenergic receptor signaling is involved in the cardiovascular and respiratory alterations in response to exercise.
This thesis has been devoted to a better understanding of the functional aspects of sympathetic nervous system activation during dynamic and resistive exercise, with use of β blocker and β2 stimulant interventions The hypotheses were: 1) that β blocker interventions would decrease aerobic exercise capacity by a limitation of maximal cardiac output, but more so the ventilatory responses to exercise because of a decreased chemosensitivity, thereby decreasing dyspnea, and 2) β2 stimulant interventions would slightly increase aerobic exercise capacity by an increase in maximal cardiac output, but also the ventilatory responses because of an increased chemosensitivity, with possible decrease of the ventilatory reserve at exercise and increased dyspnea. Both interventions could affect maximal muscle strength through central effects.
Ventilatory responses to hyperoxic hypercapnia (central chemoreflex) and to isocapnic hypoxia (peripheral chemoreflex) were confronted to measurements of ventilatory equivalents for oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) during standard cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET). Resting 5 measurements of muscle sympathetic nervous activity (MSNA) were obtained in different conditions with and without pharmacological interventions. Muscle metaboreflex and muscle stength measurements were also considered. Drugs with β blocker or β2 stimulant properties were administered in range of doses used in clinical practice for the teatment of cardiovascular or rerspiratory conditions. The results show that β blockade with bisoprolol slightly reduced maximal exercise capacity as assessed by a maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) or maximal workload (Wmax), with a decreased maximal heart rate, without significant effect on ventilation (VE) or MSNA responses to hypercapnia, hyperoxia or to isometric muscle contraction or ischemia. Both VE/VO2 and VE/VCO2 slopes were decreased during CPET, which was attributable to β blockade-related hemodynamic changes. On the other hand, stimulation of β2 receptors with salbutamol did not affect exercise capacity as assessed by VO2max or Wmax in spite of increased peripheral chemosensitivity with increased VE/VCO2 slopes and early lactic acidosis. MSNA burst frequency, muscle metaboreflex and maximal isokinetic muscle strength were not affected by salbutamol.
Thus, aerobic exercise capacity in healthy subjects is sensitive to sympathetic nervous system modulation by β blocker or β2 stimulant interventions with drugs at doses prescribed in clinical practice. B blocker intervention has a slight limitation of aerobic exercise capacity and a hemodynamic decrease in ventilation, while β2 stimulant intervention has no change in exercise capacity with associated increased ventilatory responses because of increased chemosensitivity, partly related to early lactic acidosis. None of the studied phamacologic interventions affected MSNA or muscle strength measurements.
We hope that these results might be useful for the understanding of the effects of revalidation to exercise of patients treated with β blocker or β2 stimulant drugs, document the limited ergogenic properties and also side effects of the intake of these substances in healthy exercising subjects.

Full textÀ cause des dimensions spatiales et temporelles du flux de gène ainsi que de la large gamme de variabilité des systèmes de culture, il est impossible d'étudier le phénomène exclusivement en expérimentation. Par conséquent, nous avons développé un modèle (GENESYS-BETTERAVE) qui quantifie les effets des systèmes de culture sur ce flux de gènes. Il est centré sur le cycle de développement des betteraves cultivées et adventices dans chaque parcelle basé sur une succession de stades clé (plantules, montées, plantes en fleurs, production semencière, stock semencier). Pour chaque stade est calculée la densité d'individus dans la parcelle ainsi que les proportions génotypiques, principalement celles des individus transgéniques. Les relations entre les stades dépendent des cultures en place dans les parcelles, des techniques utilisées pour gérer ces cultures ainsi que du génotype des betteraves. Pendant la floraison, du pollen est échangé entre les parcelles et l'importance de cette dispersion dépend du parcellaire. Une partie des informations nécessaires à la réalisation du modèle, est tirée de la littérature.
Des expérimentations sont ensuite réalisées pour étudier et quantifier les parties encore peu connues du cycle de développement. Elles ont permis de décrire et de modéliser le devenir des semences enfouies de betteraves adventices, en mesurant la mortalité in situ, les capacités de germination des semences et de croissance pré-levée des plantules en fonction des saisons. D'autres essais ont permis de modéliser toutes les étapes clé du développement des betteraves adventices et des traînantes (dynamique et taux de montaison, dynamique de floraison, production de pollen...) dans les cultures les plus fréquentes de la rotation betteravière.
Après avoir été programmé sous forme de logiciel, le modèle est alors utilisé pour des simulations simples qui montrent qu'il prend bien en compte les éléments caractéristiques des systèmes de cultures, en attendant une validation pour vérifier à plus grande échelle le réalisme de la prédiction.

Full textThe neuroprotective effect of melatonin and 17 beta-estradiol has been evaluated in several in vitro models of neuronal apoptosis and necrosis. Melatonin was not neuroprotective in three models of apoptosis but showed a pro-apoptotic effect in primary cortical neurons. Melatonin revealed to damage naïve neurons, too. Partial protection was observed against necrotic neurodegeneration after oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD). The use of melatonin as a therapeutic agent might be of interest in neurodegenerative diseases with excitotoxic damage like epilepsia or ischemia, but is questioned in case of apoptotic neurodegeneration. 17 beta-estradiol was neuroprotectiv in both necrotic and apoptotic neurodegeneration. Differences in the mechanism of neuroprotetion and in the efficacy in different regions of the brain were observed. A neuroprotective effect was visible only in hippocampal and septal cultures if 17 beta-estradiol was applied 20 h prior (long term pre-treatment) but not in cortical neurons. This effect correlates with an increased density of estrogen receptor-alpha and an increased expression of anti-apoptotic proteins like Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL in these regions. These effect could be blocked with receptor antagonists, protein synthesis inhibitors and an inhibitor of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. A short term pre-treatment revealed a receptor independent neuroprotective potential against OGD and glutamate toxicity. The failure of 17 beta-estradiol to protect cortical neurons against apoptosis could be an experimental basis to understand, why a long lasting treatment with estrogens of women with mild to moderate Alzheimer´s disease failed to inhibit the progress of the illness (Mulnard et al., 2000)

Full textThe last few years have seen a positive development regarding the number of incidents and accidents in the Swedish construction industry, but serious accidents and even deaths still feature in the statistics. Research shows that reporting accidents, incidents and other safety-related occurrences may lead to a decrease in the number of them. As of 2011, a simple, web-based and free-of-use reporting system available to any construction company employing union members exists: called BIA, it’s used by Skanska, among other companies. This study set out to explore how BIA is being used today, and if and how it could be used more effectively.The study concludes that BIA’s use could easily be improved in a way that contributes significantly to daily safety work, for instance by providing the most frequent users – BAS-U – with knowledge about BIA’s features, such as the analysis tool, that could be used when creating new worksets. If the construction industry were to use BIA to a higher degree, a greater data set would also be created, further increasing the possibility of learning from the reports in the system. A few simple suggestions for increasing and improving use are provided at the end of this study.

Full textPresented thesis is composed of variety of projects which I performed within theconstruction phase of SuperNEMO demonstrator during the period 2015-2018.SuperNEMO experiment, located at underground laboratory LSM, is designed to searchfor 0nbb of 82Se. Its technology, which takes advantage of particle tracking, is unique inthe field of double beta decay experiments. Event topology reconstruction is powerful toolfor suppression of naturally-occurring background radiation.Part of the thesis is dedicated to experimental work. I took part in assembly and testingof optical modules - the integral part of SuperNEMO calorimeter. Results of tests afterassembly of 520 optical modules are presented in the thesis. Furthermore, I present resultsof complete mapping of 207Bi sources performed using pixel detectors. I also present precisemeasurements of their activities for which I used HPGe detectors. These 207Bi sources willbe used for calibration of the calorimeter. Study played a key role in choice of 42 sourceswhich were installed in the demonstrator and will take part in calibration of the demonstrator.Another part of the thesis contains projects focused on Monte Carlo simulations. In firstof them, I studied a vertex reconstruction precision achievable by reconstruction algorithmdeveloped for SuperNEMO experiment. Precision is evaluated using different statisticalmethods in variety of different conditions (magnetic field, energy of electrons, angles ofemission, etc.). Factors influencing the precision, based on the achieved results are discussed.In 2018, I also performed simulations of neutron shielding. Variety of shielding materialswith different thicknesses were (in the simulation) exposed to realistic neutron spectrumfrom LSM and the fluxes behind the shielding were estimated. It was shown that the partsof the detector made of Iron should be expected to capture vast majority of neutrons passingthe shielding. I also discuss a problem with simulation of deexcitation gamma radiation,emitted after thermal neutron capture, which arises in standard software packages. I proposednew extended generator capable to resolve the problem and demonstrate the conceptin analytically solvable example.Along with standard 0nbb, SuperNEMO will be capable of searching for more exoticmodes of the decay. In the thesis, I present possible half-life limits achievable by SuperNEMOfor 0nbb with emission of one or two Majorons. The study is performed asa function of activity of internal contamination from 208Tl and 214Bi isotopes. Measurementperiod after which SuperNEMO should be able to improve half-life limits of NEMO-3 (incase the decay would not be observed) are estimated

V štúdii sú porovnávané viaceré spôsoby definovania presnosti rekonštrukcie.Presnost’ je skúmaná v závislosti na magnetickom poli v detektore, energii elektrónov,uhlov ich emisie atd’. Na základe výsledkov sú v štúdii pomenované faktory, ktoré ovplyvˇnujú presnost’ rekonštrukcie vertexov dvojitého beta rozpadu.V roku 2018 som takisto vypracoval štúdie neutrónového tienenia. Oˇcakávané toky neutrónovza tienením boli odhadnuté pomocou Monte Carlo simulácie. Kvalita odtienenia neutrónovz realistickéh pozad’ového spektra, nameraného v LSM, bola skúmana pre tri rôznemateriály rôznych hrúbok. Výsledky ukázali, že neutrónový tok prechádzajúci tienenímbude primárne zachytávaný na komponentoch detektora zhotoveného zo železa. V rámcištúdie neutrónového tienenia je takisto diskutovaný problém simulácie deexcitaˇcných gamakaskád, produkovaných jadrami, po záchyte termálnych neutrónov. Štandardné simulaˇcnésoftvérové balíˇcky využívajú generátory gama kaskád nepostaˇcujúce pre potreby štúdie.Navrhol som nový generátor, ktorý je schopný tieto problémy vyriešit’. Funkˇcnost’ generátorabola preukázaná na príklade jednoduchého systému.Okrem štandardného 0nbb je SuperNEMO experiment schopný hl’adat’ aj jeho exotickejšieverzie. V práci sa nachádzajú odhady limitov ˇcasu polpremeny 0nbb s emisiou jednéhoalebo dvoch Majorónov, dosiahnutel’né SuperNEMO demonštrátorom. Tieto limity sú študovanév závislosti na aktivite izotopov 208Tl a 214Bi, ktoré kontaminujú zdrojovú 82Se fóliu.Bola odhadnuá doba merania, za ktorú bude SuperNEMO schopný vylepšit’ limity ˇcasu polpremeny,pre dva spomenuté rozpadové módy, dosiahnutých experimentom NEMO-3

Full textAlthough Alzheimer’s disease (AD) has been considered as one of the major causesfor dementia, the mechanisms by which cognitive decline appear still remain unclear.However, amyloid-β peptides (Aβ) seem to play a central role in the appearance of memoryimpairments in the time course of the disease, inducing down-regulation of the cholinergicsystem which is associated with cognitive decline. Based on these observations, the role of α7nicotinic receptors (α7-nAChRs) which can interact with Aβ was widely studied withoutconsensus about the involvement of these receptors in memory deficits induced by Aβ.In order to improve our knowledge about the mechanisms involved in Aβ side effects,our work aims at identify the role of α7-nAChRs via behavioral and molecular approaches.Thus, we used a mice model based on injections of oligomeric assemblies of Aβo(1-42) (Aβo(1-42)) in the CA1 field of the dorsal hippocampus (dCA1) which is a brain structure stronglyinvolved in memory processes, precociously affected in the AD and with a high density of α7-nAChRs.The first part of this study was to develop and validate this animal model to studythe effects induced by Aβo(1-42) in the dCA1 by behavioral and molecular approaches. Weshow that repeated injections of Aβo(1-42) in the dCA1 induce a specific disruption of workingmemory 7 days after the last injection whereas spatial memory is spared. We also showed thatworking memory disturbance is associated with decreased activation / phosphorylation ofERK1 / 2 in the hippocampo-frontal and septo-hippocampal networks. These data allowed usto validate our experimental model to specifically study the impact of Aβo(1-42) into the dorsalhippocampus.In the second part, we focused on the role played by the α7- nAChRs receptors inmemory disturbances induced by Aβo(1-42). Our results show that (1) KOα7 mice do notexhibit working memory deficits consecutively to intra-dCA1 Aβo(1-42) injections, (2) thememory deficits and decreasing activation of ERK1/2 induced by Aβo(1-42) are offset bypharmacological treatments partial agonist and antagonist of α7-nAChRs receptors, (3)treatment with a full agonist of α7-nAChRs receptors does not prevent memory deficits .Given these results, the α7-nAChRs receptor appears to be essential to the development ofmemory deficits induced by Aβo(1-42), and the use of antagonists of these receptors might be apotential target for developing new therapeutic strategies for AD

Full textThis work presents a proposal of implementing an Ordering System based on the Bata Manufacturing Strategy (BMS). The aim is to verify the interference and effectiveness of this system on the activities of the Production Planning and Control of a thermoplastics process factory. Its theory s reference comes from the Bata Manufacturing Strategy (BMS), the Ordering Systems (OS) and the Performance Measurement Systems (PMS). The Action- Research method was used to verify the relation between the ideal model and the one obtained when put on a practical experience. Firstly, a model system is proposed on what this work was developed, its main features and details that connect the BSM, the OS and the PMS. Then, an application example of the system in a thermoplastics process factory is showed using the blow molding process of High Density Polyethylene and Polyvinyl Chloride bottles for cosmetics industries and drugstores. Furthermore, the main results obtained when implementing this system are also presented as well as an evaluation of the procedures created to control the material and human resources and how these controls influence the Production Planning and Control activities of this factory. Another important point of this work is also to present a new approach on how to implement the Bata Manufacturing Strategy
O presente trabalho apresenta uma proposta de implantação de um Sistema de Coordenação de Ordens (SCO) baseado na Estratégia Bata de Manufatura (EBM). O intuito deste trabalho é verificar a interferência e eficácia deste sistema nas atividades de PCP de uma fábrica de processamento de termoplásticos. O referencial teórico deste trabalho é fundamentado na EBM, nos SCO e nos Sistemas de Medição de Desempenho (SMD). Foi utilizado o método de pesquisa-ação como recurso para se determinar a relação entre o modelo idealizado e o verificado na prática no objeto de estudo analisado. Inicialmente é proposto um modelo de sistema sobre o qual foi realizado o estudo, suas principais características e detalhes que interligam a EBM, os SCO e os SMD. Em seguida, é apresentada a aplicação do sistema numa fábrica de processamento de termoplásticos, cujo processo é o de sopro de embalagens de PEAD (Polietileno de Alta Densidade) e PVC (Policloreto de Vinila) para indústrias de cosméticos e farmácias de manipulação. São apontados, portanto, os principais resultados obtidos com a implantação deste sistema no processo definido. São também avaliados neste estudo os procedimentos criados para controle de recursos materiais e humanos, bem como a influência que estes controles exercem sobre as atividades de PCP desta fábrica. Outro ponto chave deste estudo é apresentar uma nova abordagem de aplicação da Estratégia Bata de Manufatura
