1. The impact of urbanization on the distribution of lightning induced voltages on overhead lines / O impacto do aumento da urbanização nos niveis das tensões induzidas por descargas atmosfericas nas proximidades de linhas de transmissão
Some of the worst damage caused by lightning is indirect, that is, it is caused by electromagnetic fields radiated from this kind of natural phenomenon resulting in electromagnetic compatibility problems or in challenges for designers of surge protection systems and shields against these interferences. This work considers one of these indirect effects, induc

2. "Avaliação de correntes de descargas atmosféricas através de medições diretas em estruturas altas" / Lightning current discharge evaluation through direct measure in tall towers
The characteristics of lightning currents have a fundamental importance on insulation coordination and on the design of transmission and distribution lines equipment. The CIGRE cumulative frequency distribution curves relative to the main parameters of the first and subsequent downward flashes, which are very frequently used for the evaluation of the lightni

3. Counteracting the mutagenic effect of hydrolytic deamination of DNA 5-methylcytosine residues at high temperature: DNA mismatch N-glycosylase Mig.Mth of the thermophilic archaeon Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum THF.
Spontaneous hydrolytic deamination of DNA 5-methylcytosine residues gives rise to T/G mismatches which are pre-mutagenic lesions requiring DNA repair. For fundamental reasons, the significance of this and other processes lowering genetic fidelity must be accentuated at elevated temperatures, making thermophilic organisms attractive objects for studying how c
