1. Utilization of the Corncob Agro-Industrial Residue as a Potential Adsorbent in the Biosorption of Bisphenol-A
The presence of plastic waste in water bodies has led to a growing concern due to the impact on human health. Among the most important plastic additive molecules is bisphenol-A (BPA). On the other hand, micro-pollutant removal processes that make use of agro-industrial waste have aroused the interest of researchers. This is because the accumulation of lignoc

2. Epidemiological features, echocardiographic findings, and parasite load in patients with Chagas disease
Abstract INTRODUCTION Chagas disease is a major public health problem that is endemic in Brazil and Latin America. This study aimed to determine the socioeconomic, demographic, and clinical characteristics of 171 patients (mean age, 45 years; female, 65%) with Chagas disease at Hospital Universitário de Brasília, Federal District, Brazil. METHODS We im

3. Nonlinear numerical analysis of composite slabs with steel decking
Resumo O comportamento das lajes mistas é governado pelo cisalhamento longitudinal na interface entre o aço e o concreto, que é desenvolvido em lajes sob flexão simples. O método m-k e o método da interação parcial, utilizados no cálculo da resistência ao cisalhamento na interface aço-concreto de lajes mistas, são baseados em ensaios experimentai

4. Armadillos and leprosy: from infection to biological model
ABSTRACT Mycobacterium leprae is the primary causative agent of Hansen’s disease or leprosy. Besides human beings, natural infection has been described in animals such as mangabey monkeys and armadillos. Leprosy is considered a global health problem and its complete pathogenesis is still unknown. As M. leprae does not grow in artificial media, armadillos h

5. BINARY CO-CULTURE SELECTION FROM MARINE-DERIVED MICROORGANISMS FOR DIFFERENTIAL PRODUCTION OF SPECIALIZED METABOLITES
Nowadays the discovery of new compounds from microorganisms has substantially decreased. Genomic studies have shown that certain genes are not expressed under standard laboratory conditions. In order to overcome this problem, several methods including microorganism co-culture have been developed. The aim of this work was to select binary co-cultures of marin

6. Desenvolvimento do pensamento teórico na educação profissional: em busca da superação dialética da prática
Resumo As condições de uma cultura do trabalho permeada por avanços técnicos e tecnológicos tendem a ser apropriadas pelas instituições de formação técnica como forma de legitimar a negação, ao trabalhador, de conhecimentos teóricos produzidos historicamente. Visando contribuir para a superação dessa realidade, a pesquisa relatada neste artigo

7. Flexural Strengthening of Reinforced Concrete Beams Using Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) Sheets with Grooves
Abstract The most common method used to strengthening, rehabilitation or repairing of reinforced concrete (RC) members is to use external carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets. CFRP can greatly improve the flexural and shear capacity of deteriorated members and therefore extends their useful life. The main problem of external CFRP is the debonding of

8. Removal of entrained organic matter in the copper electrolyte by ozonation
Abstract Organic matter-in-aqueous entrainment is a serious problem in the hydrometallurgical extraction of copper from ore. Current inefficiencies, changes in the morphology and orientation of cathode deposit are some of the problems when organic matter is present in the advance electrolyte. In addition, negative effects upon metabolic activity of bioleachi

9. Sensitivity analysis of 3D frictional contact with BEM using complex-step differentiation
Abstract This paper presents a study of the complex step differentiation method applied to a parameter sensitivity analysis for 3D elastic contact problem. The analysis is performed with the Boundary Element Method (BEM) using discontinuous elements and the Generalized Newton Method with line search (GNMls). A standard BEM implementation is used and the cont

10. A New Buffer in Impact Reduction for Aerospace Applications
Abstract The aim of this paper is to introduce a new buffering mechanism in impact reduction during assembly process of two space vehicles. Probe-cone mechanism, due to its computational easiness, is employed to study impact interaction between multibody systems. The proposed buffer with a compact structure includes a probe equipped with axial and torsional

11. An Improved Dynamic Contact Model for Mass–Spring and Finite Element Systems Based on Parametric Quadratic Programming Method
Abstract An improved dynamic contact model for mass-spring and finite element systems is proposed in this paper. The proposed model avoids the numerical troubles of spurious high-frequency oscillations for mass-spring and finite element systems in dynamic contact problems by using the parametric quadratic programming technique. The iterative process for det

12. Profile of leprosy in children under 15 years of age monitored in a Brazilian referral center (2004-2012)
Abstract: Leprosy in children under 15 years of age is a serious public health problem. In this retrospective case series conducted in a Brazilian reference center (2004-2012), we found 18 cases with a mean age of 10.0±3.6 years of age and 16.6% between 0-5 years of age. Almost 56% of the cases were female, with a median time between the first symptoms and
