1. Collusion: How Central Bankers Rigged the World
Abstract This article presents a study on the performance of semi-empirical methods based on the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) for the prediction of bearing capacity already disseminated in the practice of Brazilian Foundation Engineering (Aoki and Velloso, 1975; Décourt and Quaresma, 1978, 1996; Teixeira,1996), together with the recent method proposed by

3. Seismic resistance performance of a utility tunnel in saline soil foundation based on new cementitious composite materials
Abstract Because soluble salt in saline soil dissolves with water, utility tunnels built in saline soil foundation are more likely to damage due to by groundwater and earthquake. In this study, new cementitious composite materials were developed by using slag, building gypsum, quicklime, and magnesia. The unconfined compressive strengths of the saline soil s

4. Engineering biodiversity as a model for the species conservation
Abstract: Early humans have domesticated plant and animal species based on ancient empirical concepts (Darwin 1868, 1876). In 1886, Mendel established a new paradigm of hereditary laws (Mendel 1866, 1870, 1950) based on genotypic and phenotypic traits of cross-compatible species, establishing a complex breeding technology that is currently utilized for the d

5. Analysis of the contribution of the block-soil contact in piled foundations
Abstract Geotechnical engineering has often been challenged by demands from technically and economically bold construction projects, such as that of tall buildings. The architectural requirements of these buildings have increased and concentrated the loads from structural systems without proportionally increasing plant area. New forms of using load capacity

6. Selection of a Hyper-Elastic Material Model - a Case Study for a Polyurethane Component
Abstract The aim of this study was to select an appropriate material model for a polyurethane rail pad. The considered material was assumed to be hyper-elastic, and model selection was limited only to the Mooney-Rivlin (M-R) material models available in the MSC.Marc/Mentat system. The selection of the most appropriate material model was based on the most acc

7. The correlation between the central carbon metabolic flux distribution and the number of shared enzyme regulators in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
The central carbon metabolic system is the upstream energy source for microbial fermentation. In addition, it is a master switch for increasing the production of metabolites and an important part of the microbial metabolic network. Investigation into the relationship between genes, environmental factors, and metabolic networks is a main focus of systems biol

9. Control of uncertainties within an interdisciplinary design approach of a robust high heel
Within this paper the combination of several methods, developed and used in Collaborative Research Center (CRC) 805 - "Control of Uncertainties in Load Carrying Systems in Mechanical Engineering" of the DFG (German Research Foundation), is used to demonstrate the development of a load carrying system under uncertainty. The development starts with the identif

10. Estudo do jateamento em solos argilosos e sua aplicação à engenharia de fundações offshore / Study of water jets in clay and its application to offshore foundation engineering design
Most of all petroleum produced in Brazil is encountered in marine deposits where the water depth may exceed 1000 meters. Recent discoveries of new offshore oil fields have motivated studies in this area designed to develop new techniques applied to oil exploration. For the extraction of oil deposits floating platforms are commonly used, supported by anchorag

11. Banco de dados geológico-geotécnicos com base em sondagens à percussão e uso de SIG: análise espacial da profundidade do lençol freático e do \ N IND.SPT\ para obras de fundação em João Pessoa - PB / Geological-geotechnical Database with SPT sounding data and GIS: spatial analysis of water table level and \ N IND.SPT\ values applied to foundation maps in João Pessoa - PB (Brazil)
Geological-geotechnical databases have been used as important assistant tools in urban and environmental management activities. However, the kind of information necessary for one to work with such tools may not always be available or easily supplied. This work concerns the generation of a Decision Support System undertaken through means of a Geographic Infor

12. Monitoramento e diagnóstico de falhas em uma coluna de destilação / Monitoring and failure diagnostic on distillation column
O objetivo deste trabalho é criar uma metodologia que monitore e detecte em tempo real as falhas, seja de processo seja de instrumentos, em uma coluna de destilação. Para tanto, foi utilizado um sistema de inferência nebulosa com um sistema de análise de confiabilidade de instrumentos a partir dos diagnósticos disponibilizados na rede industrial Fieldb
