Texto completoToday buildings are projected to save energy and minimize heat losses through buildings envelope. In order to reduce the need for active heating for the residents, an idea was developed that the building would be heated by passive heat. This eventually led to the creation of passive and low-energy buildings. There have been passive houses for more than 20 years and are commonly used by individuals and their homes. Lately engineers have begun to integrate passive house technology with the construction of apartment buildings. The aim of course is to reduce the annual consumption of active heating for buildings and heating requirements. During the early phase of development, it has historically been more focus on the actual building function than appearance, which may lead that the aesthetic form of the building is neglected. This in turn leads to the question if passive houses can be designed to be both energy efficient and as aesthetically pleasing or if there is a contradiction? The answer is that passive house energy efficiency can be combined with attractive appearance - the possibility is left free for the architect's own interpretation of the building's appearance. The shape and appearance of the building can affect the building's energy consumption for heating of the building. In literature, what is called YV-factor has been discussed; The YV-factor is the ratio between the building's surrounding area and internal volume. The lower YV- factor the easier it is to heat the building. Various geometric shapes of the building affect this condition - best considered is hemisphere and cylinder. This is because the curved walls of the structure increase the internal volume meanwhile the surrounding area increase is negligible. The building Omega in this report was developed to suit the Swedish climate, however it should be investigated if this building can be applied in Germany, which is one of the dominant countries in the use of passive houses. For a building to be considered as a passive house in Germany, one of the key requirements is that the heating do not exceed 15 kWh/m2 and have a maximum power consumption of 120 kWh/m2. The simulations were carried out with the aid of IDA (Indoor , Climate and Energy 4 ) registered the value of 11.6 kWh/m2 for heating and 118 kWh/m2 for the whole District Omega's energy consumption. The conclusion is that a multistoried house can be constructed as a passive house, even in Germany. In a comparison between a normal house with shape as a cuboid and this building with the exact same conditions, the difference is 23 % in heating requirements. This is due to the inclusion of curved walls in the construction or other geometric form of building, affects heating requirement of the building.

Texto completoSyfte: Studien avser att se om ett aktivt sparande och förvaltande av premiepensionen leder till en högre avkastning i jämförelse mot att låta pengarna ligga kvar i AP7 Premiesparfond Metod: Studien är en statistik analys och har en deskriptiv karaktär där sekundärdata ligger till grund för beräkningarna. Studien kan således ses som en kvantitativ studie. Vidare har tre stycken aktiva portföljval i tre olika riskkategorier tagits fram för att jämföras med AP7 Premiesparfonds avkastning. Studien är deduktiv då den empiriska prövningen sker med hjälp av redan befintliga finansiella teorier. Slutsats: Generellt sett ger högre risk en högre avkastning. Studien visar att om premiepensionen ska förvaltas aktivt bör detta göras i portföljer med högre risk. Då den valda lågriskportföljen gav lägre avkastning än AP7 Premiesparfond. Vidare forskning: Författarna anser det intressant att jämföra om AP7 Såfa skulle gynna icke aktiva sparare i högre grad än den gamla AP7 premiesparfonden. AP7 Såfa är en generationsfond där risken anpassas efter spararens ålder. Studien bör därför omprövas då det finns tioårig historik om AP7 Såfa.

Texto completoTidigare forskning har riktat begränsad uppmärksamhet mot hur personlighet påverkar jobbsökande för akademiker i arbete och inga studier har fokuserat på skillnaden mellan aktivt och passivt jobbsökande. Denna enkätbaserade studie som undersökt universitetsutbildade ekonomer och ingenjörer med 5-25 års erfarenhet, visade att karriärambition medierade aktivt jobbsökande för personlighetsdimensionerna öppenhet, samstämmighet och extraversion och gav också tydliga belägg för att aktivt jobbsökande har lägre grad av arbetstillfredställelse, och högre grad av karriärambition, samstämmighet och extraversion, jämfört med passivt jobbsökande. Dessa rön ger en mera nyanserad bild av konsekvenser av olika rekryteringsstrategier och utgör en utgångspunkt för fördjupade studier beträffande passivt jobbsökande.

Texto completoBro 2004, BV Bro och Eurocode ger råd för hur jordtryck som uppkommer på grund av temperaturändring och bromskraft skall tas hänsyn till vid dimensionering av ändskärmar. I detta examensarbete undersöks dessa dimensioneringskrav med hjälp av PLAXIS för att göra en bedömning av jordtrycket. Resultaten visar att modellen i PLAXIS överensstämmer ganska väl med de konventioner som ges i Bro 2004 och att PLAXIS ger tillförlitliga resultat. Kravet att ändskärmar alltid ska dimensioneras för passivt jordtryck visade sig vara pessimistiskt. I fall med långa broar och korta ändskärmar nås ofta passivt jordtryck men för kortare broar med djupare ändskärmar är detta nästan aldrig fallet. PLAXIS visade sig vara känsligt för hur modellen byggs upp och vilka indata som ändvänds, varför dessa bör väljas försiktigt. En modell i PLAXIS medför inte en mer effektiv dimensionering men kan vara ett bra verktyg för analys av jordtryck i kombination med andra effekter så som förskjutningsmönster samt moment- och kraftdiagram.

Texto completoBackground: Subacromial pain is one of the three most common causes of patients seeking help in primary care. A definition of subacromial pain is that it is a non-traumatic pain, usually located only in one shoulder, which creates pain in structures in and around the shoulder joint. The cause of subacromial pain is proposed to be multifactorial and the structures that may be involved are many. Conservative treatmens is the first choice when treating shoulder injuries, however, the evidence for which exercises are effective and how these should be dosed is limited. Purpose: The purpose of the study was to measure the effect of passive hanging on shoulder mobility, function and pain in patients with subacromial pain. Questions: - Does passive hanging increase mobility and reduce pain in patients with subacromial pain? - Does passive hanging reduce the incidence of disturbed night sleep in patients with subacromial pain? - Does passive hanging improve shoulder function in patients with subacromial pain? Method: The study used a quasi-experimental design, which consisted of two measurement occasions. A measurement before the treatment and a measurement after the intervention, a so-called pretest - post-test design. All participants performed passively hanging from a pull-up bar for a total of seven minutes a day (three minutes in the morning and four minutes in the evening) during an eight-week period. The exercise was performed at 30 second intervals. The main data of the study is collected through the Constant-Murley shoulder outcome score. A total of six patients completed the study. Results: According to the Constant-Murley shoulder outcome score all six participants improved their mobility and shoulder function after eight weeks of passive hanging. The presence of disturbed night sleep and pain in ADL also decreased among all participants. Participants improved their painless mobility by 61 % at group level (p-value 0.028). Pain during activity decreased by 75 % at group level (p-value 0.027). The presence of disturbed night sleep decreased by 76 % at group level (p-value 0.027). And the participants shoulder function improved by 94 % at group level (p-value 0.028). Conclusion: This pilot study indicates that eight weeks of passive hanging can improve the mobility and shoulder function in patients with subacromial pain. The incidence of disturbed night sleep and pain in ADL also decreased in all participants after eight weeks of training. Despite low p-values and large differences at the individual level one cannot comment on significant differences or generalisability of the results due to low power and lack of control group.

Texto completoLäroplanens övergripande mål är att alla elever ska uppnå kunskapsmålen. Det finns dock många elever som riskerar att inte uppnå dessa mål. Med utgångspunkt från studiens syfte om att öka förståelsen för arbetet med elever som riskerar att inte uppnå kunskapsmålen på grund av passivt beteende har vi undersökt hur lärare beskriver dessa elever. Vi har även undersökt hur lärare utformar undervisning och klassrumsmiljö för dessa elever, samt vilket pedagogiskt bemötande lärare ser som viktigt för att elever med passivt beteende ska kunna uppnå kunskapsmålen. Vi har också sökt svar på vilka svårigheter lärarna upplever i arbetet med dessa elever. Vi har genomfört sex kvalitativa intervjuer med lärare verksamma i år 1-5. Undersökningen visar att lärarna har erfarenheter av elever med passivt och drömmande beteende som har svårt att uppnå kunskapsmålen. De anser att dessa elever ofta saknar egen drivkraft och därför har svårt att självständigt föra sitt arbete framåt. Lärarna i studien betonar vikten av styrning, tydlighet och struktur, både i undervisning och i klassrumsmiljö. Tät tillsyn och regelbunden återkoppling i form av styrning och stimulans anses som avgörande faktorer för inlärning. Lärarna menar att det är betydelsefullt med korta och konkreta instruktioner som ges både muntligt och skriftligt. Även arbetsuppgifterna bör vara väl avgränsade och på rätt nivå. Uppmuntran och positiv feedback anses som något centralt och avgörande, i synnerhet för elever med passivt beteende. Som lärare är det viktigt att visa på framstegen och uppmärksamma elevernas starka sidor. Vidare är det av stor betydelse att aktivt arbeta med att utveckla en tillåtande stämning och en acceptans för olikheter i klassen. Enligt lärarna är en av svårigheterna i arbetet med elever med passivt beteende tidspressen, vilket påverkar möjligheten att individualisera och utveckla arbetssätten. En annan svårighet är bristen på respons från eleverna. Dessa elever behöver en lugn inlärningsmiljö vilket inte alltid är lätt att skapa. Elevgrupperna är stora och lokalerna bristfälliga. Läraren måste ta hänsyn till många elever i klassen och till elever med andra svårigheter. Detta innebär att det hela tiden är risk för störningar i samspelsprocessen mellan läraren och eleven med passivt beteende.

Texto completoIntroduction: In 1998, the pension system was changed and the so called PPM system was introduced. The PPM system is partly fund-based, partly distribution-based. There are approximately 700 different investment funds to choose between, at a maximum five for each individual. For persons who are not familiar with the financial market, the choice might be difficult. The lions’ part of the investors do not seem to have an active strategy. Are the reasons for that the complexity of the system or which factors do influence the choice between different fund strategies?
Problem area: The problem area of this thesis was to clarify the following questions: Why do not more peoples entitled to the Swedish PPM system make active investments and changes between different fund options? On the individual level, which factors influence how actively placements and changes are made within the PPM system?
Propose: Our mission was to investigate the reasons for the lack of activity of the individuals entitled to the benefits of the Swedish PPM system.
Methods: Our main approach was to quantitatively analyse the relations and to draw conclusion based on the questionnaire answers from a cohort of 100 respondents living in the city of Stockholm. The results were statistically analysed by using the computerised program SPSS.
Results: The lack of knowledge, experience and interest seem to be the factors most positively associated with the lack of initiative to actively make use of the possibilities offered by the PPM system.
Conclusions: The quantitative analysis performed indicates that a large majority of the Swedish population lack the qualities needed to manage the money obtainable within the Premium Pension System. It is evident that there are individual differences depending on educational level, income, age and risk attitude.
Inledning: 1998 reformerades det svenska pensionssystemet och det så kallade premiepensionssystemet infördes, som dels är fondbaserat, dels distributionsbaserat. I systemet finns omkring 700 olika fonder emellan spararen kan välja, maximalt fem. För en individ som inte är hemma på den finansiella marknaden kan valet av fonder vara ett svårt beslut. Är systemets komplexitet orsaken till att merparten av spararna inte har en aktiv strategi för sin premiepension eller vilka faktorer är det som styr detta?
Problemområde: De problemområden som avsågs klargöras genom denna studie var: Varför väljer inte fler svenska premiepensionssparare att aktivt placera och byta fonder? Vilka individuella faktorer styr hur aktiv individen är i sitt placerande av premiepensionsmedlen?
Syfte: Syftet var att undersöka orsakerna till varför merparten av de svenska premiepensionsspararna inte agerar aktivt i valet av fonder samt vilka individuella faktorer som är nav betydelse för graden av aktivitet i premiepensionssparandet.
Metodval: En kvantitativ ansats har huvudsakligen använts i denna uppsats då syftet var att uppdaga samband och dra slutsatser baserat på enkätsvar från en stor urvalsgrupp. Urvalet utgjordes av ett bekvämlighetsurval med 100 deltagande respondenter i stockholmsregionen. Det empiriska materialet bearbetades statistiskt i dataprogrammet SPSS.
Resultat: De faktorer författarna funnit haft störst inverkan för aktiviteten i premiepensionsvalet är kunskap, erfarenhet samt intresse. Avsaknaden av dessa antas vara vad som resulterar i många av de svenska premiepensionsspararnas passivitet i premiepensionsvalet.
Slutsatser: Den kvantitativa undersökning som genomförts indikerar att stora delar av den svenska befolkningen saknar de egenskaper som krävs för förvaltande av premiepensionen. Det framgår även att det föreligger skillnader beroende på bland annat individens utbildning, inkomst, ålder, kön samt åsikter kring risktagande.

Texto completoMed hjälp av personal från Metria bytte Ljusdals kommun ut sitt gamla geodetiska referenssystem RT R10 2,5 gon V 0:–15, mot det nya systemet SWEREF 99. Samhällsutvecklingsförvaltningen i kommunen ville få hjälp med att testa hur bra koordinattransformationen hade lyckats vilket blev examensarbetets syfte. För att uppnå detta gjordes en jämförelse mellan inmätta plana koordinater och de av Metria bestämda koordinaterna. En GNSS-mottagare av typen Leica GX 1230+GNSS och en antenn av modellen Leica AX 1203+GNSS användes. Ambitionen var att mäta in så många som möjligt av de stompunkter som fanns i Ljusdals tätort, med mätmetoden nätverks-RTK. Det resulterade i inmätningar av 37 stompunkter under sommaren och hösten år 2011. De 119 gjorda mätserierna utgjorde data för beräkning av ett viktat medelvärde och dess standardosäkerhet för N- respektive E-koordinaten på varje stompunkt. Det beräknades koordinatdifferenser jämfört med de kända värdena för N, E och radiellt. Slutligen beräknades ett kvadratiskt medelvärde (RMS) för koordinatdifferenserna i N, E och radiellt. RMS-värdena blev för N 9 mm, för E 11 mm och radiellt 14 mm. Det radiella RMS-värdet är bara något större än osäkerheten i den använda mätmetoden och alla RMS-värden är relativt låga jämfört med i tidigare studier. Det fanns två utmärkande drag i mätresultaten, dels att mätningarna råkat ut för ett systematiskt fel i riktningen sydväst och dels att standardosäkerheterna var anmärkningsvärt låga. En förklaring till det till det systematiska felet kan eventuellt vara att någon del av utrustningen, troligast trefoten med dess optiska lod, har varit en aning defekt. Detta hade i så fall kunnat upptäckas om kalibrering hade gjorts vid betydligt fler tillfällen och med en strängare bedömning av dess resultat. Att det var så låga standardosäkerheter kan bero på att arbetet utfördes med mycket god tillgång av tid. Många försök att mäta avbröts p.g.a. att det för tillfället var för dålig satellittäckning. De misslyckade försöken återupptogs i många vid senare tillfällen. Mätdata från fyra av stompunkterna visade stora koordinatdifferenser i alla eller i de flesta mätserier vilket ger anledning att misstänka att de kan ha drabbats av deformation. Undersökningen ger skäl att tro att den koordinattransformation som Ljusdals kommun gjorde år 2010‒2011 har lyckats bra.

Thesis, Mälardalen University, School of Sustainable Development of Society and Technology, 2008. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:mdh:diva-896.
Texto completoDenna uppsats belyser empati ur ett troligen helt nytt perspektiv genom att likna empatiprocessen vid den suggestibla som ”den andres” förmedlande av stimu¬lus, vilket av målpersonen mottages, processas och därefter ofta resulterar i en, hos målpersonen, genuint upplevd känsla eller uppfattning. I uppsatsen förslås vidare att empati och suggestibilitet skiljer sig ifrån övrig form av var¬seblivning genom det radikala internaliserandet av stimulus som de ofta ska¬par hos målpersonen. Studiens syfte var att, baserat på detta förslag, utreda om det finns ett samband mellan empati och suggesti¬bilitet. En studie utförd med 42 per¬soner påvisade en tendens till samband mellan suggestibilitet och empati samt att kvinnor var signifikant mer suggestibla än män. Framtida forskning bör fortsatt testa om suggestibilitet kan förklara empati.

Texto completoThis study evaluated implant supported prostheses obtained by two techniques (cemented cylinder or laser welded cylinder) and their behavior regarding passivity and screw loosening. Three-element FPPs were made over 2 implants: G1, cemented cylinder technique, G2, laser welded cylinder technique (n=10). The levels of vertical misfit and passivity were evaluated before and after ceramic pressing, and after mechanical cycling; while loss of initial torque of prosthetic retaining screws, before and after mechanical cycling. The mechanical cycling simulated one year of normal masticatory function (50N, 300,000 cycles). Vertical misfit and passivity were analyzed by Sheffield\'s test. The percentage of torque loss was calculated. The misfit and torque loss data were statistically compared by Mixed Linear Model . Overall, G1 showed vertical misfit statistically lower than G2 (p<0.05) in the three conditions analyzed by Sheffield\'s test, before and after mechanical cycling, reaching maximum values of misfit corresponding to: 11.94 ± 3.17μm (G1) and 48.63 ± 39.68 μm (G2) before cycling; 12.42 ± 6.19μm (G1) and 47.62 ± 35.16μm (G2), after cycling, when screws were tightened. Additionally, in all experimental conditions, the mechanical cycling did not influence the misfit in both groups (p<0.05), except for the molar G1 when analyzed in the tightened condition (p<0.0001). When was analyzed G2, statistically significant increase in the vertical misfit was found after ceramic pressing for all elements (p<0.0001) for different moments, except when the molar was not tightened, which showed similar misfit before and after pressing (p=0.052). In the analysis of torque loss, values expressed as percentage of loss are presented: Pre-molar - G1- before cycling: 31.04 ± 13.22%, G2- before cycling: 33.97 ± 13.41% (G1 x G2 before cycling: p=0.662), G1- after cycling: 42.36 ± 14.99%, G2- after cycling: 37.92 ± 9.32% (G1 x G2 after cycling: p=0.461). When the pre-molar was analyzed, statistical differences before and after cycling were not found for both groups (G1: p=0.067; G2: p=0.423); Molar - G1- before cycling: 30.77 ± 12.37%; G2- before cycling: 44.37 ± 11.14% (G1 x G2 before cycling: p=0.032); G1- after cycling: 39.28 ± 13.96%; G2- after cycling: 54.40 ± 26 , 39% (G1 x G2 after cycling: p=0.189). When the molar was analyzed, statistical differences were not found before and after cycling for both groups (G1: p=0.392; G2: p=0.233). Based on these results, it is possible to conclude that: G1 showed vertical misfit and passivity smaller than G2, but for both groups, the misfits are within acceptable standards for the literature; mechanical cycling did not change the vertical misfit and torque loss (%) for both groups; both techniques were not able to promote absolute passivity, in view of the higher values of misfit when compared to the side no tightened.

Texto completoBackground: When children are faced by a cognitive challenge they often speak out loud to themselves. This is a common strategy in five year old children and is called private speech, which gradually, is developed into a silent form called inner speech. Inner speech is essential in several cognitive tasks including planning and problem solving, and is also involved in the working memory, particularly in the phonological loop. Children with intellectual disabilities have a limitation in the capacity of the working memory and in the phonological loop. The capacity of the working memory and the development of the phonological loop have a big importance in the acquisition of the vocabulary, therefore a limitation or delay in these skills lead to a delay in the vocabulary. Aim: The purpose of this study was to investigate the inner speech in children with intellectual disabilities and to investigate the correlation between the inner speech and the dimension of the active and passive vocabulary. Method: 28 children participated. The target group consisted of 14 children with mild to moderate intellectual disabilities aged 8:4-16:0 years. The control group consisted of 14 children with typical development aged 4:8-8:6 years. The two groups were matched according to their test results on Raven's Colored Progressive Matrices. The active vocabulary was tested with Boston Naming Test and the passive vocabulary was examined with the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test. To examine the inner speech and memory strategies the European Picture Span Study was used. Results: The result showed that the children in the control group have a bigger passive and active vocabulary compared to the target group and that there is a correlation between having a big vocabulary and using a more mature strategy in the control group. The target group use phonological strategies to a smaller extent than the control group, but they seem to have developed a consciousness regarding their use of strategies. The analysis also shows a significant correlation between span level and the size of the passive vocabulary in the target group, whilst there is a significant correlation between the span level and the active vocabulary in the control group.

Texto completoMany Swedish households are investors, in 2018 investments in funds reached an average of 434 000 Swedish Crowns per person. The Nobel laureate Fama showed that yielding a higher risk-adjusted return than the market is not possible. Simultaneously, a great amount of actively conducted funds that pledges a higher return than the market is still launched today. Which arises a disorientation among small savers if passive or active conducted funds generate higher returns. Unlike previous studies, the range of funds were increased in this study. The purpose is to examine the returns of the funds with the performance measures Sharpe-ratio and Jensen’s Alpha. The results indicate that it is not possible to outperform a higher risk-adjusted yield than the market for the chosen time period. Overall, the passive funds had higher risk-adjusted returns compared to the active funds, which indicates that a higher fee for the funds is unjustified.

Texto completoPassiv belastning av en provstav är en relativt billig metod att använda för brottmekanisk provning jämfört med en aktivt belastad provstav. En passivt belastad provstav är enklare att använda vid provning av spänningskorrosion då provstaven enkelt kan placeras i en specifik korrosiv miljö. Den passiva metoden är bristande i information om spricktillväxen över tid och belastningen på provstaven kan inte justeras för att upprätthålla fortsatt spricktillväxt under provningens gång. Detta examensarbete syftade till att ta fram en provstav med ett spricktillväxtomrade med konstant KI för fortsatt spricktillväxt vid konstant belastning samt att hitta en metod för att uppskatta spricktillväxten över tid. Arbetet är baserat på linjärelastisk brottmekanik och finita elementmetoden. Arbetet resulterade i en provstav med konstant KI i spricktillväxtområdet 23/50 ≤ a/W ≤ 33/50 och en relation mellan spricktillväxt och töjningen som mäts på provstavens baksida.

Texto completoBackground: In Sweden, there is a great interest in private fund savings. The major banks in Sweden offer several funds and constitute the majority of the Swedish fund market. Fund managers' goal with an active fund is to generate a higher return compared to its benchmark index, but previous research has shown that active funds rarely outperform the benchmark index. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate why individuals retain fund holdings in the Swedish major banks’ active funds, although previous studies show that these funds often have higher fees, but not better returns than for example index funds. Methodology: Hypothesis testing has been applied with a quantitative approach derived from existing theory. Empirical primary data has been collected with a physical survey answered by 174 students at Linköping University. In this study, a non-probability sample with a convenience sample has been used. Bivariate and multivariate analysis of the study's empirical data was conducted with logistic regression analysis. Results: The null hypothesis is rejected for the independent variable switching costs (p <0.1). For the independent variables financial knowledge and familiarity bias, the null hypothesis is rejected for the time being (p <0.1). The result of the beta coefficient's direction is negative for switching costs regarding fees and other financial costs, but positive for relationship costs, financial subjective and objective knowledge, and familiarity bias. Conclusions: The independent variables, which might explain why private individuals in this study's sample retain fund holdings in the Swedish major banks' active funds, are switching costs, financial knowledge, and familiarity bias. The results of this study generate a knowledge contribution which might increase customer mobility in the fund market.

Texto completoLight-verb constructions (LVCs) are verb-noun combinations with a single meaning, for example, zu Ende bringen (to bring to an end). The noun attached to the light verb may or may not be preceded by a preposition. By means of a LVC it is possible to express a change in the Aktionsart in comparison to the Aktionsart of the verb which gives rise to the noun of the LVC. The Aktionsart, expressed by the LVC with the verbs bringen and kommen, are perfective ingressive causative and perfective ingressive respectively. LVCs may have either a passive or an active meaning. While the light verb bringen has an active meaning, because it expresses a cause or an agent, the verb kommen has a passive meaning. The verb kommen is the main substitute for the light verb bringen, because, although it has a passive meaning, it still maintains the perfective ingressive Aktionsart. However, the corpus data of the constructions with bringen has showed us a great amount of passive-voice constructions. As a result, we have researched if both ways of expressing passivity may occur with all LVCs comprising the verb bringen, which were chosen as the corpus of this research. The data survey was made with Corpus Search, Management and Analysis System Cosmas II. The constructions with the light verb bringen were categorized as prototypical (with a preposition and a deverbative noun) or not prototypical. They were also categorized according to their response to the lexicalization tests, which consist in ascertaining if the constructions accept some changes in their nominal part, like pluralization of nouns, adjectivation, and so on. We concluded that the formation of passive voice of such constructions does not depend on the lexicalization of the LVCs but rather on the presence of a preposition in the nominal part of the LVC.

Texto completoPassive fit has been considered one of the most important requirements for the success of implant supported prostheses. This in vitro study investigated the abutment deformation of an implant-supported prosthesis after screw tightening of palladium-silver and cobalt-chromium prosthetic cylinder. A master model was used to simulate a human mandible with five implants. The Strain gauges were attached on the sides of each abutment to capture deformations because of the cylinders screws after was tightened. The abutments were mounted onto implant replicas and the screws were tightened to a 20 Ncm torque, and the readings were recorded. After this step, palladiumsilver and cobalt-chromium prosthetic cylinders were tightened to a 10 Ncm torque and the readings were recorded. The measurements were repeated five times. Mann-Whitney statistical test was applied to the results. No statistical differences were found between the deformation generated by palladium-silver and cobalt-chromium prosthetic cylinders. However, there were differences relative to the quality of the strain. The deformation generated by screw tightness of the cobalt-chromium prosthetic cylinders was compressive while palladium-silver prosthetic cylinders generated compressive and tensile strain.

Resumo: Devido ao grande volume de trafego causado pelo aumento exponencial do numero de usuários na Internet e o surgimento continuo de novas aplicações de banda larga, redes de alta capacidade são necessárias para suportar a grande demanda de trafego. Dentre os diferentes tipos de redes de acesso, as redes ópticas passivas são consideradas uma das alternativas mais promissoras para conexão de ultima milha, devido ao seu baixo custo e a eficiência de seus recursos, o que a torna uma das principais soluções para a demanda por banda de transmissão. Para acomodar o alto numero de assinantes, a transmissão em modo de rajada e utilizada, sendo o tratamento e a recepção desta natureza de transmissão um dos pontos mais críticos de concepção do sistema. Dentro deste contexto, este trabalho apresenta o estudo e projeto de um receptor operando em modo de rajada para ser usado em redes ópticas passivas de próxima geração, devendo este suportar uma taxa de transmissão de ate 2,5 Gbit/s. Os passos de desenvolvimento do protótipo são descritos e seu desempenho avaliado em termos das recomendações propostas pelo órgão ITU-T
Abstract: Due to the increasing volume of traffic caused by the exponential growth of the number of Internet users and the continuous arrival of new broadband applications, high-capacity networks are necessary to handle large traffic demand. Among the different types of access networks, passive optical networks are considered one of the most promising alternatives for the last mile connection, due to its low cost and resource efficiency, making it one of the main solutions to the demand for bandwidth transmission. To accommodate a large number of subscribers, burst mode transmission is used. Thus, the reception and processing of this type of transmission becomes one of the most critical system design issues. Within this context, this work presents the study and design of a receiver operating in burst mode to be used in next generation passive optical networks, supporting transmission rates up to 2.5 Gbit/s. The prototype development stages are described and the receiver performance evaluated in terms of the recommendations proposed by the ITU-T

O presente trabalho teve como objetivo estudar as particularidades do processo coletivo passivo e analisar o cabimento das ações coletivas passivas no Brasil. A partir do viés passivo da tutela coletiva, reexaminados marcos históricos das ações coletivas. Com atenção às situações coletivas passivas, identificou-se os fundamentos e as características da coletividade-ré. Sem desprezar a abordagem de lege ferenda do tema, analisou-se casos variados em que a jurisprudência brasileira já admite o processamento de ações coletivas passivas. Demonstrou-se que, em que pese a ausência de previsão legal específica do instituto e a divergência doutrinária sobre a matéria, o Judiciário brasileiro está autorizado a apreciar demandas coletivas passivas. Seja em razão do princípio da inafastabilidade, seja pela garantia do devido processo legal, há respaldo na Constituição Federal para que grupos, assim considerados, sejam processados. A admissibilidade do processo coletivo passivo depende da estruturação de aspectos procedimentais que permitam o correto processamento das ações coletivas passivas. A legitimidade coletiva passiva deverá ser aferida a partir do controle judicial da representatividade adequada. A coisa julgada coletiva passiva deve ser simples e ampla, abrangendo todos os membros da coletividade, inclusive os que não participaram do processo. ______________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT
This work aimed to study the particularities of defendant class litigation and analyze the admissibility of the defendant class actions in Brazil. From the defendant class point of view, re-examines the historical landmarks of class actions. With attention to defendant class situations, we identified the reasons and the characteristics of the defendant group. Without neglecting the lege ferend a approach of the theme, analyzed various cases where the Brazilian jurisprudence already allows the processing of defendant class actions. It was demonstrated that, despite the absence of specific legal provisions of the institute and the doctrinal disagreement on the matter, the Brazilian Judicial Power is authorized to assess defendant class demands. Either because of the principle of access to justice, or because of the due process of law, there is support in the Constitution for groups, considered as such, be sued. The admissibility of defendant class litigation depends on the structuring of procedural aspects to enable the correct processing of defendant class actions. The defendant class representative must be chosen through judicial control of adequacy of representation. The binding effect of the defendant class action must be simple and extensive, covering all members of the group, including the absent parties.

In this thesis it is proposed a study of the influence of the depletion forces induced by passive particles as a function of the medium (particles) that surrounds then. In the first part of this thesis, the depletion forces exerted by active (self-propelled) particles on passive and elliptical passive objects are studied through numerical simulations. It is shown that a bath of active particles can induce repulsive and attractive forces that are sensitive to the shape and orientation of the passive objects. In general, the force resulting in passive objects due to the active particles is studied as a function of the shape and orientation of the passive objects, magnitude of the angular noise, and distance between passive objects. In the case where the separation between passive objects is less than an active particle diameter, the increase of this separation results in an increase of the magnitude of the depletion forces, which are repulsive in this case. For distances between passive objects larger than one diameter of the active particle, the magnitude of the depletion force always decreases with increasing distance between the passive particles. It is also observed that the nature of the depletion force (attractive or repulsive) depends on the shape and relative orientation of the passive particles. It is noted that an attractive depletion force occurs when elliptical passive objects are arranged side by side, but so that the semi-major axis are parallel and not aligned. This occurs for a sufficiently high concentration (or density) of active particles. In the second part of the thesis, we study the dependence of the depletion force related to the shape of the objects that undergo such interactions. In this case, passive "large" objects (elliptic, triangular and semi-circular forms), which undergo the depletion interaction, are immersed in a passive solvent (bath of passive particles of smaller size). The depletion forces may present distinct nature (attractive or repulsive) from that predicted by Asakura-Oosawa. The passive bath always attractive or repulsive depletion forces depending on the shape of the passive objects. In addition, the intensity of the depletion forces are sensitive to the shape of the obstacle and the bath temperature of passive particles, as well as to the size of the passive objects suffering the depletion interaction and density of the bath particles. By modifying the shape of the passive objects from elliptical to triangular, the magnitude of the repulsive depletion forces increases by two orders of magnitude. In the case of semi-circular objects, a strong damped oscillation is observed in the depletion force, emphasizing that such forces are considerably sensitive to the distance between the passive objects. In the case of triangular objects, it is observed that the induced depletion forces can be attractive or repulsive depending on the internal angle, which becomes a parameter of control of the resulting depletion force.
Nesta tese propõe-se o estudo da influência das forças de depleção induzidas em partículas passivas em função do meio (partículas) que as circundam. Na primeira parte do trabalho, estudam-se as forças de depleção exercidas por partículas ativas (auto-propelidas) em objetos passivos circulares e elípticos através do cálculo numérico. Mostra-se que um banho de partículas ativas pode induzir forças repulsivas e atrativas que são sensíveis à forma e orientação dos objetos passivos. Em geral, a força resultante nos objetos passivos devido às partículas ativas são estudadas como função da forma e orientação dos objetos passivos, magnitude do ruído angular e distância entre os objetos passivos. No caso em que a separação entre objetos passivos é menor que um diâmetro de partícula ativa, o aumento desta separação resulta em um aumento da magnitude das forças de depleção, que são repulsivas neste caso. Para distâncias entre os objetos passivos maiores que um diâmentro da partícula ativa, a magnitude da força de depleção sempre decresce com o aumento da distância entre as partículas passivas. Observa-se também que a natureza da força de depleção (atrativa ou repulsiva) depende da forma e orientação relativa das partículas passivas. Observa-se que uma força de depleção atrativa ocorre quando objetos passivos de forma elíptica são dispostos lado a lado, mas de modo que os semi-eixos maiores estão paralelos e não alinhados. Isto ocorre para uma densidade suficientemente alta do banho de partículas ativas. Na segunda parte do trabalho, estuda-se a dependência da força de depleção em relação a forma dos objetos que sofrem tal interação. Neste caso, os objetos passivos “grandes” (formas elíptica, triangular e semi-circular), que sofrem a interação de depleção, estão imersos em um solvente passivo (banho de partículas passivas com dimensões menores). Observa-se que as forças de depleção podem ser de natureza (atrativa ou repulsiva) distinta daquelas previstas por Asakura-Oosawa. O banho passivo induz forças de depleção de natureza distinta, dependendo da forma dos objetos passivos. Além disso, a intensidade das forças de depleção são também sensíveis à forma do obstáculo e à temperatura do banho de partículas passivas, bem como em relação ao tamanho dos objetos passivos que sofrem a interação de depleção, e à densidade das partículas do banho. Modificando-se a forma dos objetos passivos de elíptico para triangular, a magnitude das forças repulsivas de depleção aumentam em duas ordens de magnitude. Para o caso do objetos semi-circulares, uma oscilação fortemente amortecida é observada na força de depleção, ressaltando-se que a natureza dessa força é consideravelmente sensíveis à distância entre os objetos passivos. Para o caso de objetos triangulares, observa-se que as forças de depleção induzidas podem ser atrativas ou repulsivas dependendo do ângulo interno, tornando-se este um parâmetro de controle da força de depleção resultante.

Resumo: Resultados de campanhas de medição realizadas visando o desenvolvimento de uma fer-ramenta para o projeto, implantação e análise de sistemas de RFID são mostrados nesse traba-lho. Particularmente, a perda de percurso de rádio a partir de um leitor de RFID até um TAG, e de volta para o leitor é caracterizada na banda 915 MHz, para diferentes distâncias de separação leitor-TAG, alturas de TAG e de antena do leitor. Vários cenários de propagação foram considerados, incluindo ambientes exteriores e in-teriores, para os quais foi colhido um extenso número medidas. Os dados de campo são, então, comparados a uma versão melhorada do modelo clássico perda caminho 2-ray, ajustada para incluir também os padrões de radiação da antena não omnidirecionais no leitor. Além disso, foi investigado, por meio da análise de medidas de campo, o efeito da mobi-lidade do TAG no sinal recebido no leitor. Para a coleta das medidas, foi construído um aparato composto de uma esteira de velocidade controlada, onde foram instalados TAGs de teste. Os resultados de medida mostraram que a mobilidade do TAG provoca uma diminuição do valor médio e um aumento da variância do sinal recebido no leitor. Essa atenuação extra e a variância do sinal não são fortemente afetadas pelo valor da velocidade. Por fim, esses efeitos de propagação são incorporados em um modelo matemático, que pode ser utilizado para a simulação e planejamento de sistemas RFID
Abstract: Results of measurement campaigns carried out aiming at the development of a tool for design, deployment, and analysis of RFID systems are shown. Particularly, the radio path loss from an RFID reader towards the test TAG and back to the reader is characterized at the 915 MHz band. The path loss is estimated based on the received signal strength measured at the reader, for different reader¿TAG separation distances and different antenna TAG heights. Several propagation scenarios have been considered, including outdoor and indoor environments for which an extensive number of typical real manufacturing plants have been chosen. The field data are then compared to a proposed novel, improved version of the classical 2-ray path loss model, adjusted to include non-omnidirectional antenna radiation patterns at the reader. In addition, the effect of TAG mobility in the received signal at the reader was also investigated, by means of field measurements. To collect the field measurements, an apparatus was designed and constructed, consisting of a mat of controlled speed, on which test TAGs were installed. The results showed that TAG mobility decreases the average value increases the variance of the received signal at the reader. This extra attenuation and the increased variance of the signal are not strongly affected by the value of speed. Finally, these two effects are incorporated into a mathematical model that can be used for simulation and planning of RFID systems

Texto completoMusic performance on a professional level is one of the most demanding and fascinating human experiences. Becoming a musician entails great sacrifice, both for daily trials and the complexity of their workdays. Due to the high demand, we believe that we must know the aspects that can help musicians to have a high performance, but does not pose a risk for their welfare. In this study we consider some concepts that we believe are relevant to understand the performance of the musicians and their welfare: passion, appreciation of beauty and excellence and stress. While there are studies that have analyzed these variables separately, we don’t know of studies that integrate them with the aim to determine their combined effect. Therefore, this study has the objective to: a) Analyze the psychological profile of the musicians in terms of passion, appreciation of beauty and excellence, occupational stress, performance and welfare; and b) determine what effects have the passion, appreciation of beauty and excellence in performance and stress and welfare on musicians. The sample was composed of 500 musicians, of whom 237 (47.4%) were women and 263 (52.6%) were men, with an average age of 32.72 years (DT = 11.52). The measures used included variables socialdemographic and professional, the Spanish versions of the Passion Scale (Chamarro et al., 2015), the scale of appreciation of beauty and excellence (Martinez-Martí et al., 2013), the Job Content Questionnaire (Escribà-Aguir, Mas and Flores, 2001), the abbreviated questionnaire of the model of Effort-reward imbalance (Macías-Robles et al., 2003), and the scale of Psychological Welfare (Díaz et al., 2006). To measure the performance we used essay times during the week, the number of concerts, deliberate practice and the subscale of scenic fear from the Kenny Music Performance Anxiety Inventory (Zarza, Casanovas and Orejudo, 2015). Results show that the musicians can be described as passionate, with a higher prevalence of harmonious passion over obsessive. We have also noted that despite having high scores in appreciation of beauty and excellence, they appreciate even more moral excellence, which is people’s goodness. Referring to stress, we have seen that musicians experience control but also high demands, meaning they have an active profile. According to the effort-demand model we found out that their efforts are not rewarded as expected, being the passionate obsessives who show more stress. We found low scenic anxiety, being the women who suffer most. Finally, psychological variables contribute to the explanation of the performance and welfare, so that the passionate obsessives and the ones who experience more control are who devote more time to deliberate practice. Although passionate obsessives show high score with the more effective performance measure (deliberate practice) they do so at the expense of his health, because they suffer more scenic anxiety and less wellness. However, being a man, passionate harmonious, having control over the work and experience that rewards are appropriate to their efforts contribute to the psychological welfare. Implications are foreseen with proposals for the education of future musicians contributing to its performance and welfare; it’s important to respect the autonomy of the musician during its formation, creating an atmosphere of trust and support, introducing practice affordable schedules, avoiding the mechanical repetition of fragments that can cause frustration, and combining music with healthy habits like regular exercise and proper rest.

L’étude de cas menée dans ce but révèle que certaines formes verbales passives en innu peuvent osciller entre une sémantique dynamique et stative/résultative. Ce mémoire propose d’envisager les formes statives/résultatives comme des formes passives lexicalisées dans la langue. L’étude met aussi en lumière des formes verbales apparentées à la voix passive et à la voix moyenne également présentes dans d’autres langues algonquiennes qui sont traitées comme des passifs lexicaux en tant que tels dans le présent travail. Les annexes fournissent les données de l’étude de cas menée dans le cadre de ce mémoire ainsi qu’une sélection de phrases passives tirées de l’ouvrage Eukuan nin matshimanitu innu-iskueu (Kapesh, 1976). Les annexes fournissent également une sélection de formes verbales passives transitives ainsi qu’une sélection des formes verbales traitées comme des passifs lexicaux.

Innu is an Algonquian language spoken in Québec and Labrador by around 10 000 speakers. This thesis investigates the aspectual properties of the passive voice as well as the phenomenon of lexical passive, a subtype of passive that remains poorly documented in Algonquian languages. The case study carried out with this aim reveals that certain passive verbal forms in Innu can have either a dynamic or a stative/resultative semantics. This thesis explores forward the idea of considering stative/resultative forms as lexicalized passive forms in the language. Moreover, the study highlights a number of verbal forms related to passive and middle voice also found in other Algonquian languages. These forms are considered as lexical passives in this thesis. Appendices show the data of the case study study as well as a selection of passive sentences from the book Eukuan nin matshimanitu innu-iskueu (Kapesh, 1976). Appendices show also a selection of transitive passive verbal forms and a selection of verbal forms analyzed as lexical passives in this study. Those selection are all extracted from the Innu online dictionnary.

Texto completoSedimentary morphodynamics of siliciclastic passive continental margins "The present is the key to the past". James Hutton (1788), with this well-known principle of uniformitarianism, established the basis of the modern geology by following the assumption of actualism. Stratigraphy makes use of this principle to interpret the origin of geological formations according to observations of modern and submodern processes and geometries. Geomorphology studies the processes that sculpt the Earth’s surface to understand the origin and evolution of present landscapes. The main objective of this Thesis, which is conceptually halfway between stratigraphy and geomorphology, is to understand the long-term morphosedimentary variability of siliciclastic passive continental margins. Our initial hypothesis is that the morphology differences among modern siliciclastic passive margins can be objectively and systematically categorized, and that these differences are mainly related to the action of a few key sedimentary processes. The methods and concepts we use in this study are based on hydrodynamics and sedimentology. The detailed observation of continental margin morphology and stratigraphy, the study of the hydrodynamic processes that control their evolution, and the analysis of changing environmental conditions through time and space facilitate the development of geomorphic transport laws (also known as morphodynamic flux laws) for predicting landscape forms and dynamics. In the following chapters we discuss these topics while analysing seafloor and subseafloor geophysical data, with a particular focus on submarine drainage networks. An important result of this analysis is a morphodynamic model that can explain the long-profile shape of submarine canyons. The model stimulates our discussion about the equilibrium and transience of drainage morphologies observed in the geophysical data set we present. In this work we advocate for the complementariness and interdependence of observational analyses and modeling of sedimentary processes. This Thesis demonstrates that much can be learned about the sedimentary evolution of submarine basins from the study of seascape morphologies, both modern and ancient, and that submarine canyons can evolve while remaining net depositional, beyond the broadened view of these features as purely erosive. These results can be translated to improved stratigraphic prediction in slope strata, a better knowledge of hydrocarbon and water resource distribution in these settings, and a broadened view of submarine canyon development.

Texto completoLocalized corrosion phenomena observed on passive materials, used in industry and transport, areresulting from the presence of microstructural heterogeneities and the effect of mechanical andthermomechanical stresses. The characterization and the understanding of reaction processes requirethe use of local electrochemical techniques. The scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM), newpowerful local technique was used in different situations. First, in order to detect pitting corrosionareas, measurements were performed on a stainless steel in corrosion situation. Then, changes insurface reactivity induced by elastic and plastic deformations were measured on the same material. Ina notch root, correlation between the distribution of deformation and the distribution of the apparentelectrochemical rate constant has been established. Finally, on aluminum alloy welded by FSW(Friction Stir Welding), situations of galvanic coupling at different scales have been shown at themicroscopic scale, because of the presence of intermetallic compounds and at the scale of the structurewhen two different aluminum alloys are welded

Este estudo teve como principal objetivo desenvolver um amostrador passivo para monitoramento de amônia na atmosfera. A configuração do amostrador passivo (AP) desenvolvido minimiza problemas de turbulência do ar e outras interferências de amostragem: um cilindro de polietileno (21 x 12 mm), fechado no fundo, com uma tela de aço inox (0,08 x 0,125 mm) adaptada na entrada de ar seguida por um filtro de teflon. Após o caminho de difusão (12 mm), encontra-se um filtro (celulose) impregnado com reagente apropriado (C2H2O4, ácido oxálico; C6H8O7, ácido cítrico, solução a 0,3 %) para fixar NH3 gasosa difundida. Após reação com a solução ácida, a concentração de amônia fixada no filtro foi medida por espectrofotometria molecular Visível (λ = 630 nm). O desempenho do amostrador passivo foi avaliado em campo a partir de medidas simultâneas com analisador contínuo para amônia em áreas sob influência industrial próximas ao Pólo Industrial de Camaçari, onde os amostradores passivos foram expostos em estações da Rede de Monitoramento de Ar da Cetrel: Gravatá em Camaçari, Leandrinho em Lamarão do Passé e Concórdia em Dias D´Ávila. Testes para avaliação das soluções absorvedoras utilizando três ácidos (oxálico, cítrico e fosfórico) foram desenvolvidos em diferentes períodos de exposição (1, 3 e 7 dias). As medidas com o AP proposto revelaram exatidão variando entre 2,4 a 13 % usando ácido cítrico como reagente no meio absorvedor, em períodos de exposição até 3 dias, e entre 1,3 a 12% para ácido oxálico com exposição de 7 dias. A precisão das medidas feitas usando conjuntos de 3 a 6 amostradores variou de 6,6 a 16% para o ácido cítrico (tempo de exposição até 3 dias) e de 2,8 a 19% para o ácido oxálico (tempo de exposição de 7 dias). Os limites de detecção para as medidas de NH3 na atmosfera utilizando o AP foram determinados como 0,49 μg m-3 (0,71 ppb) para 1 dia de exposição usando ácido cítrico e 0,071 μg m-3 (0,10 ppb) para 7 dias de exposição usando ácido oxálico, o que mostra sua adequação para medidas em atmosferas com concentração extremamente baixas como a de áreas remotas. A capacidade do amostrador passivo é de 159 e 227 μg de NH3 utilizando-se ácido cítrico e ácido oxálico respectivamente, onde isso mostra que o AP pode ser usado também em ambientes de trabalho onde as concentrações são muitas vezes mais elevadas do que em ambientes externos

CAPES
Neste trabalho foram usados amostradores passivos POCIS e Chemcatcher com a técnica de Extração em Fase Sólida SPE e a Cromatografia Gasosa acoplada à Espectrometria de Massas, GC/MS. O objetivo geral do trabalho foi desenvolver uma metodologia para os amostradores passivos POCIS e Chemcatcher para a análise de agrotóxicos em água superficial e os objetivos específicos: estudar o desempenho dos amostradores passivos através de desenvolvimento de metodologia SPE e GC/MS, calibrar em laboratório, determinando as taxas de amostragem e implantar os amostradores na região do Vale do São Francisco, em Petrolina, Pernambuco. O sorvente usado na SPE foi à base de sílica modificada (C18) e os solventes foram metanol e diclorometano. A validação do método foi feita para disco e cartucho, onde, o LD para disco variou de 0,0080 a 0,096 μg L-1 e para cartucho 0,0070 a 0,43 μg L-1, o LQ de 0,026 a 0,32 μg L-1 e 0,024 a 1,4 μg L-1, respectivamente. Os percentuais de recuperação para o disco variaram de 70,0 a 119,9 para disco e 70,2 a 119,7 para cartucho. Os desvios-padrões para o disco variaram de 2,86 a 19,9 e para cartucho 1,89 a 19,8. A repetitividade com 95% de confiança para disco variou de 0,0070 a 0,089 e 0,0070 a 0,41 para cartucho. As taxas de amostragem para os dispositivos POCIS e Chemcatcher variaram, respectivamente: para 1 dia: sem membrana, 0,105 a 0,693 L dia-1 e 0,100 a 0,757 L dia-1; com membrana PES < 0,0080 a 0,069 L dia-1 e <0,0080 a 0,050 L dia-1; com malha de nylon 0,103 a 0,333 L dia-1 e 0,093 a 0,33 L dia-1. Para 3 dias com renovação de água: com membrana PES < 0,011 a 0,083 L dia-1 e < 0,011 a 0,042 Ldia-1; com malha de nylon 0,077 a 0,80 L dia-1 e 0,074 a 0,95 L dia-1. Durante três dias sem renovação de água: com malha de nylon 0,067 a 0,28 L dia-1 e 0,064 a 0,31 L dia-1. Taxas de amostragem teóricas foram calculadas em função dos coeficientes de difusão dos pesticidas em água e do desenho e configuração dos dois modelos de amostradores passivos. As taxas de amostragem para o POCIS e Chemcatcher variaram respectivamente de 0,11 a 0,23 L dia-1 e 0,077 a 0,16 L dia-1. Considerando-se um ambiente aquático com baixa contaminação (ao nível do LQ do método) o tempo de exposição dos amostradores para captar os pesticidas pode variar, a depender do composto, de 3 a 9 dias para o POCIS e de 4 a 10 dias para o Chemcatcher. O desempenho dos dois modelos pode ser considerado semelhante e seu uso com a técnica SPE e GC/MS é uma alternativa para a metodologia de determinação de pesticidas em água, uma vez que o procedimento é simples, rápido e econômico.

Texto completoAlzheimer’s disease is an insidious neurodegenerative dementia disease that primarily affects elderly and is characterized by the formation of amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in the brain. The most common symptoms are dementia, cognitive problems, delusions, and aggressiveness. Alzheimer’s occurs in two forms, presenile and senile Alzheimer’s disease. The complete mechanism behind Alzheimer’s is still unknown but two proteins, beta-amyloid and tau, are considered to be behind the cause of Alzheimer’s. A third protein involved that was found through genetic analysis is apolipoprotein E. Today, Alzheimer’s is a growing problem as the world’s population is getting older. A complex of problems exists as the symptomatic treatment available against Alzheimer’s is considered to be insufficient; a cure is therefore aimed at. Immunotherapy is a cure that hopes can be offered, this in the form of an active or a passive vaccine effective against beta-amyloid. Research to find such a vaccine is therefore under progress right now. AN-1792 (active vaccine), CAD106 (active vaccine), Bapineuzumab (passive vaccine), and Solanezumab (passive vaccine) are four vaccines that have been developed and tested on humans. In the vaccine studies that have been done setbacks have been encountered but also successes have been made. AN-1792 is the vaccine proved to be effective but with severe side effects while CAD106 is the vaccine proved to be less effective but safer. Both Bapineuzumab and Solanezumab showed to be ineffective. Since several of the produced vaccines have been active against amyloid plaques scientists believes that a future vaccine against Alzheimer’s disease is possible to make.

Texto completoThe Rif belt (northern Morocco) is a mountain chain at the junction between the Mediterranean and Central Atlantic Domains, representing the western edge of the Maghrebides System. It belongs to a much larger orogeny, the Mediterranean Alpine belts extending from the Western Mediterranean up to the Himalayas. The Rif belt results from the collision between two continental domains initially separated by the Maghrebian Tethys.This belt is classically subdivided into: (1) Internal zones (or Internal Rif), is an allochthonous metamorphic domain. (2) Flysch zones (the original cover of the Maghrebian Tethys). (3) External zones (or External Rif) representing the North African margin remnants.Despite spectacular compressional events, the Rif represents a remarkable place for the understanding of rifting and oceanization mechanisms and their incorporation in mountain belts, because remnants of the Mesozoic North African rifted margin are especially well preserved in its external zones. Especially, the External Rif conserves characteristics of the distal margin. This thesis presents detailed field evidence and geochronological data from two subunits of the External Rif, the Mesorif, and the Intrarif.- The Mesorif preserves a major rifting phase during the Middle Jurassic, characterizing the formation of the Mesozoic North African margin. It presents particular lithostratigraphic associations of mafic intrusive rocks overlain by dismembered and discontinuous blocks of Lower Jurassic carbonates covered by Middle to Upper Jurassic sediments. U-Pb zircon dating of 4 samples from the intrusive has been done, showing ages close to the Triassic-Jurassic boundary (195-200 Ma). From a petrographic and chronologic point of view, the intrusive magmatism, corresponds to the CAMP (Central Atlantic Magmatic Province), known around the Central Atlantic.- The Intrarif displays the exhumed mantle domain, exposed in the Beni-Malek massif, consisting on highly serpentinized peridotites exhibiting ophicalcites with uppermost Jurassic limestones resting conformably on top. This suggests that the exhumation of the mantle occurred at the distal part of the North African Mesozoic margin at this time. Altogether, these observations enable us to discuss the architecture and evolution of the western part of the North African rifted margin.Moreover, the location of the Rif, in between the Central Atlantic and the Alpine/Maghrebian Tethys, enables to investigate the connection between these two oceanic domains during the Mesozoic. However, thanks to the new concepts and models developed since this period, we are able to propose a renewed scenario for the building of this margin. As we will see this scenario implies poly-phase rifting, magmatic activity and mantle exhumation.Later on, by the Late Cretaceous, the North African margin has suffered a complete different history, passing from a passive margin to a convergence setting, affecting the whole Tethys Realm. The External Rif presents several features that are unusual in the external zones of a mountain belt:-They record poly-phase deformation events with evidence for an early and initial (pre-Oligocene) contractional event occurring before the Miocene thrusting of the Internal Units over the External Units.-They include the presence of External Metamorphic Massifs (EMM) recording a HP-LT metamorphic gradient.-They exhibit large allochthonous thrust-sheets identified since a long time across the whole External Rif.The thesis is based on the onshore study of the geodynamic evolution of the Rif belt since the earliest stages of the North African Mesozoic margin formation, through the compressional stages of mountain building, up to its present day position

Para isso acompanhou-se o parto de 30 búfalas e de seus bezerros que foram divididos em dois grupos de acordo com o resultado do cultivo bacteriano observado na secreção colostral. Avaliou-se a presença de alterações físicas na glândula mamária e macroscópicas das secreções lácteas, foi realizado a contagem de células somáticas, o California Mastitis Test (CMT) e foram mensuradas as concentrações de IL-6 e TNF- e traçado eletroforético das secreções lácteas e séricas dos bezerros, no momento do parto, às 24 e 48 horas após. A CCS e o CMT mostram-se como importantes indicadores da ocorrência de mastite subclínica, porém baixos valores de CCS e/ou resultados negativos do CMT não implicam, necessariamente, na ausência de infecção intramamária.

Abstract: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of clinical and subclinical mastitis on crossbred Murrah buffaloes on the physical, microbiological and immune characteristics of colostrum produced in relation to the passive immunity transfer efficiency in their respective calves. For this, 30 calf buffaloes and their calves were divided into two groups according to the result of the bacterial culture observed in the colostral secretion. The presence of physical changes in the udder and macroscopic glands of milk secretions was evaluated, the somatic cell count, the California Mastitis Test, and the concentrations of IL-6 and TNF- and electrophoretic tracing of milk and serum secretions of the calves, at the time of delivery, at 24 and 48 hours after. CCS and CMT are important indicators of the occurrence of subclinical mastitis, but low CCS values and / or negative CMT results do not necessarily imply the absence of intramammary infection. The presence of microbial agents caused discrete physical alterations in the mammary parenchyma and the macroscopic characteristics of buffalo milk secretions. The microbial agents isolated in the colostrum samples were Streptococcus spp., Staphylococcus spp., Corynebacterium spp., Bacillus spp. And Bacillus cereus, being Streptococcus spp. the most commonly isolated. The ingestion of colostrum from buffalo cows with subclinical mastitis does not influence the transfer of passive immunity to calves. The concentrations of IL-6, TNF-, ...

Texto completoThis study evaluated the effect of leukocytes passive transference from bovine colostrum in specific immunity of newborn calves. During neonatal period, 20 Holstein calves were followed. Animals were distributed in two experimental groups: COL+ which received fresh colostrum (4L) from their mothers, and COL- which received frozen and acellular colostrum (4L) that came from donor cows. The evaluations were performed in the following moments: before colostrum intake (M0), 1-2 (M1), 7 (M2), 14 (M3), 21 (M4) and 28 days after birth (M5). Heifers were submitted to clinical examination. Then, blood samples were harvested for hemogram, immunophenotyping and cell culture. Both groups were fed with the same quality of colostrum (immunoglobulin concentration 70-120 g/L). The cell concentration of fresh colostrum that was provided to COL+ group was 1.895.849 cells/mL. It was not possible to detect differences in vital functions concerning the experimental groups. The system specific examination reveled one case of bronchopneumonia, three cases of umbilical inflammation and major rates of diarrhea score 3 in group COL-. Clinical alterations were reflected in calves erythrogram. It was found lower mean value for hemoglobin (HGB) in M3 for COL-. Regarding age, a gradual reduction in mean values for erythrocytes, HGB, HCT (hematocrit) and hematimetric rates were observed in the first month of life. The frequency of anemic heifers was higher in COL- group at moments M4 and M5. Regarding leukogram, it was observed difference between groups for lymphocytes in M0 and M2 with higher values in COL-. Concerning moments, it was possible to detect leukocytosis by neutrophilia from M0 up to M1 and inversion of neutrophil:lymphocyte relation from this moment. Values of CD45+CD45RO- was higher in M0 for COL-, furthermore, increase of cellular memory marker expression CD45RO+ was observed from M0 to M1 in both groups. The CD3+gamma-delta- increased during the study. On the other hand, CD3+gamma-delta+ were lower in M5 in relation to M0-M3. Increase of CD14+MHCII+ values were also detected in the first month of life, indicating maturation of antigen presenting cells. Regarding cytokine production by mononuclear cells of heifers blood, it was possible to identify higher concentration of IFN-gamma in M4 when cells of COL- were stimulated with S. aureus (1 mononuclear: 10 inactivated bacteria). The concentration of IL-17 detected from COL+ cells was higher in M3, when cells were stimulated with ConA. Based on these results, it can be concluded that: a) COL- heifers presented higher frequency and intensity of diseases that evolved to anemia of inflammation; b) COL- heifers presented higher lymphocyte absolute number, represented specially by CD3+gamma-delta+ subsets in episodes of higher frequency of diarrhea; c) memory lymphocytes CD45RO+ increased after colostrum intake in both groups, suggesting that other acellular colostrum components can present fundamental role in development of immunological response in newborn heifers; d) the subset of CD3+gamma-delta- and the cells CD14+MHCII- and CD14+MHCII+ increased during the first month of life, indicating immunological maturation; e) heifers mononuclear cells did not respond for herpes virus bovine type 1, however, responded for bacterial stimulus, specially Escherichia coli. The interpretation of leukogram with the variation of presented analyses for inflammatory cytokines IFN-gamma and IL-17, allow to state that heifers presented delayed inflammatory response and of lesser magnitude in COL-.

Texto completoThe aim of this study was to evaluate the dissolution capacity and removal of biofilm formed in situ, in smear layer and debris removal and debris use ten final irrigation protocols (saline with or without ultrasonic agitation, or sodium hypochlorite as primary irrigating, and then used saline or 17% EDTA, or 2% peracetic acid (PAA), or Qmix, with or without ultrasonic agitation of both solutions). Two hundred and thirty bovine roots were sectioned and cut with 15mm in length and instrumented with Reciproc R50. For the analysis of removal of debris and smear layer were separated 100 roots, which were cleaved, and the apical third of the half of root, has a longitudinal groove made simulating extensions of oval canals, artificial subsequently filled with debris. After this procedure was performed on half the formation of smear layer with a force wall with instrumentation filing motions. These samples were taken to SEM prior to analysis. These halves, after juxtaposed, and again the flask were held treatment protocols. Data analysis was performed by means of scores. For the analysis of the dissolution and viability of the biofilm in situ roots 130 were prepared with R25 separate instrument and dentin disc was taken from the middle third with a trephine. These disks were inserted into a hawley plate, which was used by the researcher for three days. The discs were removed and left for 48 hours in BHI at 37oC. After contamination disks back to the root from which they were removed and fixed with wax utility returning to muffle being treated and evaluated. Seventy disks were used for analysis of dissolution and viability and confocal images were evaluated by Bioimage software. Sixty discs were used for the analysis of the dissolution of the biofilm SEM and are assessed before and after treatment. Comparing the groups for the removal of smear layer statistically significant differences were found (P <0.05) between the protocols used EDTA and Qmix with the protocols using only saline solution and hypochlorite followed by saline independent of ultrasonic agitation. While for the slot there was a statistically significant difference between the groups using PUI and the other groups. Both ultrasonic agitation, and the use of sodium hypochlorite as primary irrigant influenced significantly to the reduction of bacterial viability and biovolume. The group using the NaOCl, and then used Qmix associated with PUI had the lowest viability values and the highest dissolution of the biofilm. The QMix PUI and the PAA / PUI showed the best dissolution results in the analysis MEV.se differentiating statistically (P <0.05) from the other groups. Taking into account all the criteria analyzed, the protocol that was more efficient was the NaOCl and then used QMix and associated with PUI.

Texto completoThis research investigates some aspects of the verbal voices in the normative grammar of portuguese language. Some concepts like passive voice and the clitic SE are discussed by many authors in the portuguese language gramaticography that have adopted different and opposite points of view about each one of these aspects. This work also intends to demonstrate that the normative grammar of portuguese language nowadays did not renew its theory about verbal voices, which remonts to Dionísio of Trácia with his manual which was written two thousand years ago, and it needs identify the fragilities of normative grammar theory and needs to renew it with the theorical instrumental available in the modern linguistics currents.

Texto completoIdentification of potentially toxic elements in soils, their distribution and their chemical availability are important for environmental risk assessment, an essential diagnostic for sustainable development with security food, water, energy, climate stability, biodiversity and the ecosystem. Usually, the identification of contaminated areas requires the collection and analysis of a large number of soil samples, which consequently raise costs and require many hours of work. In this sense, strategies that allow faster, cost-effective and efficient determinations are desirable. Passive sampling strategies have been developed to overcome the limitations of conventional chemical analysis, besides possessing additional advantages that allow incorporating to this diagnosis the edaphic influences of the sampled site. Another way of reducing cost and increasing analytical frequency is the use of direct solids analysis techniques, which eliminate or minimize the sample preparation, and consequently the analysis time. Aiming to contribute to the development of field sampling and direct solid analysis techniques, the objective of this work was to develop, evaluate and validate a passive sampling device composed of paper and resin and to compare technical aspects between conventional procedures and analytical analysis techniques direct solids: X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) and Laser Induced Optical Emission Spectrometry (LIBS). In order to evaluate the concept, a soil mapping of a supposedly contaminated experimental area was carried out, analyzing the data set with the aid of mathematical interpolation tools based on the Kriging technique. Tests were performed with the purpose of determining the best way of coupling, conditioning, adsorption and extraction of the elements of both parts of the device (paper and resin). The two techniques of direct solids analysis were also tested. The XRF provided information based on the distribution of the adsorbed elements on paper and resin, but it did not present viability and capacity (because of the high background) in the quantification of the elements. The LIBS showed promise for the quantification of the elements, providing a good correlation with the concentrations present in the soil, in the resin more (by this more uniformly adsorb the elements) than in the paper and because it is fast, besides multielementar. When inserted into contaminated soil (with high concentrations of metals), the device showed excellent correlations with the amount added and the intensities provided by the LIBS. However, when there are low concentrations there was no definite relation between the different types of extraction. It is believed that the device has potential for quantification of potentially toxic elements in contaminated soils, since it has responded well to extraction and determination in this type of soil

Texto completoThis work presents experimental results of a circuit when operating in natural circulation. These results allow to analyze the behavior of an emergency core cooling system when a bypass line that connects the hot source with the cold source is opened. This work also reports the hydraulic characterization of the experimental loop, given geometric and hydraulic data including experimental friction factors specific to this circuit. It was observed that, to a fixed thermal power, when the bypass line is opened, the heater outlet temperature increases. This temperature increase is due to the decrease in the flow rate through the heater. The heat exchanger's flow rate is subjected to a small increase. This flow rate is the sum of the bypass line and heater mass flow rates. This work also shows that the vertical position of the connection of the bypass line in the hot-leg determines the flow direction in the bypass line. If the bypass line connection is in the lowest position, the flow is from the cold to the hot-leg. If the bypass connection is in the highest position, the flow is from the hot to the cold-leg. A numerical model used to evaluate friction factors and heat transfer coefficients influence was developed. It was used to confirm the possibility of precise experiments simulation. The conservation equations are solved using Engineering Equation Solver (EES), a thermal hydraulics analysis tool. The model was adjusted with natural circulation experimental data and was tested with results of natural circulation without bypass lines.

Texto completoBovine colostrum contains immunological factors, such as immunoglobulins, leukocytes and cytokines, which are absorbed by the intestinal mucous membrane of the neonate up to 48 hours of life. However, little is known about the function of some of these components, such as cytokines, which take part in innate and adaptive immune responses. It is believed that these substances have important roles in neonate immunity on their first days of life. Therefore, the specific objectives of this study were: to determine the concentration of cytokines IL-1β, IL-6, IFN-γ and TNF-α in serum and colostrum of Holstein cows; to assess the in vitro release of cytokines by mononuclear cells of colostrum and blood before and after stimulation with enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ECET); to evaluate IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α transfer from colostrum to neonate calves by determining cytokine concentrations in calf blood during the first 15 days of life. The study was carried out in two stages, in different farms: (1) evaluation of blood and first milking colostrum in 22 females; (2) evaluation of blood cytokines of 11 calves, before and after colostrum intake. In this study, it was possible to determine the medians of IL-1β, IL-6, IFN-γ and TNF-α concentration in blood and colostrum as equal to 70.5 and 41.5; 86.1 and 13.5; 41 and 57.9; 139.9 and 20.8 pg/mL, respectively. The lowest values of IFN-γ were observed in colostrum, and of TNF-α and IL-6, in serum. TNF-α concentration was different in serum and in blood. It was observed colostrum and blood cells of the cows produced cytokines spontaneously and by means of ECET, with a tendency to increase production in periods of cell incubation and stimulation with ECET. Evaluation of calf serum showed absence of cytokines IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α before colostrum ingestion, and these cytokines reached a peak after 48 hours of life. Mean values for cytokine concentration in the serum of cows and heifers were 98.3; 88.4; 53.5 and 235.9 pg/mL, and 144.5; 94.5; 83.9 and 116.2 pg/mL, for IL-1β, IL-6, IFN-γ and TNF-α, respectively. Mean values for cytokine concentration in the colostrum of cows and heifers were 97.4; 21.3; 143.3 and 35.1 pg/mL, and 69.5; 6.4; 51.9 and 16.32 pg/mL, for IL-1β, IL-6, IFN-γ and TNF-α, respectively. When the two groups were analyzed, it was observed that mean de IFN-γ and TNF-α were significantly greater in the cows. Thus, based on the results of this study, it was possible to: (a) determine the concentration of cytokines in serum and colostrum of cows; (b) assess cytokine production by cells of cow serum and colostrum, observing different profiles in the two samples; (c) observe cytokine absorption from colostrum by the calves; (d) assess that cows show greater concentrations of IFN-γ and TNF-α in the colostrum, when compared with heifers; (e) that there are no differences between cytokine concentrations observed in the different quarters.
