25. Correlation of Stress Concentration Factors for T-Welded Connections – Finite Element Simulations and Fatigue Behavior
Abstract The stress concentration factors (SCFs) in welded connections usually occur at zones with high stress levels. Stress concentrations reduce the fatigue behavior of welded connections in offshore structures and cracking can develop. By using the grinding technique, cracking can be eliminated. Stress concentration factors are defined as a ratio of maxi

26. Protic Ionic Liquids Used as Metal-Forming Green Lubricants for Aluminum: Effect of Anion Chain Length
Among the applications for protic ionic liquids (PILs), lubrication is one of the newest and the most promising. In this work, ammonium-based protic ionic liquids were tested as lubricant fluids for aluminum-steel contacts. PILs were synthesized with 2-hydroxyethylamine (2HEA) and a carboxylic acid (formic and pentanoic), aiming to understand the effect of t

27. Supramolecular Approach to Decorate Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes with Negatively Charged Iron(II) Complexes
Poly(4-vinylpyridine) (P4VP) and P4VP/pentacyanoferrate(II) metallopolymer were used to suspend up to 1 mg mL-1 of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) in ethanol/water mixtures, providing noncolavent decoration of MWCNT with electroactive iron complex. The major interaction between polymer side chains and nanotubes is via π-π stacking, rather than charge

28. Recent Developments in Damage Identification of Structures Using Data Mining
Abstract Civil structures are usually prone to damage during their service life and it leads them to loss their serviceability and safety. Thus, damage assessment can guarantee the integrity of structures. As a result, a structural damage detection approach including two main components, a set of accelerometers to record the response data and a data mining (

29. Economic Incentives or Communication: How Different Are their Effects on Trust
Abstract This study investigates the effects of economic incentives and communication on the cognitive and behavioral responses after an alleged trust violation. We argue that these responses depend on the type of solution used to foster cooperation between agents. On the cognitive level, we compare the effects that structural (economic incentives) and motiv

30. Fretting corrosion tests on orthopedic plates and screws made of ASTM F138 stainless steel
Introduction Although there has been significant progress in the design of implants for osteosynthesis, the occurrence of failures in these medical devices are still frequent. These implants are prone to suffer from fretting corrosion due to micromotion that takes place between the screw heads and plate holes. Consequently, fretting corrosion has been the s

31. Crashworthiness study of a civil aircraft fuselage section
This paper studies the crashworthiness characteristics of a fuselage section and its improvement. A full-scale three-dimensional finite element model of the fuselage section is developed using a nonlinear finite element code, PAM-CRASH. The simulation is implemented to determine the structural deformation and impact response in terms of peak loads and accele

32. Candida albicans morphologies revealed by scanning electron microscopy analysis
Scanning electron microscope (SEM) observations were used to analyze particular morphologies of Candida albicans clinical isolate (strain 82) and mutants defective in hyphae-promoting genes EFG1 (strain HLC52) and/ or CPH1 (strains HLC54 and Can16). Transcription factors Efg1 and Cph1 play role in regulating filamentation and adhesion of C. albicans' morphol

33. Bench surgical training with lyophilized esophageal segments
PURPOSE: To present lyophilized esophageal segments that can be used to learn surgical skills. METHODS: Four esophagus were harvested from four non-esophagus related research dogs at the moment of euthanasia. Each esophagus was trimmed in 3 cm long segments. They were lyophilized and stored during 30 days. The day programmed for surgical skills practice, the

34. Análise numérica da integridade estrutural de vasos de pressão com corrosão usando a Norma API 579. / Numerical analysis of the structural integrity of pressure vessels with corrosion using the standard API 579.
A avaliação da integridade estrutural de equipamentos é de fundamental importância para se evitar falhas e assim obter o maior rendimento possível dos componentes mecânicos presente em vários setores industriais e a corrosão, por sua vez, constitui um dos maiores perigos para os vasos de pressão. A capacidade de analisar a integridade estrutural de

35. FLEXIBLE RISERS MONITORING TECHNIQUE BASED ON VIBRATION MEASUREMENTS / MONITORAMENTO DE RISERS FLEXÍVEIS ATRAVÉS DE TÉCNICA BASEADA EM VIBRAÇÕES
The main failure in flexible risers is the disruption of the wires from the tensile armor layer. Experience has shown that this class of damage occurs primarily near to the top riser connector. The breaking of the wires occurs gradually and may be caused by different processes as corrosion by inflow of fluid in the annular space, excessive wear associated wi
