2. Numerical formulation for nonlinear analysis of concrete and steel shells with deformable connections
Abstract A two-dimensional interface finite element capable of associating flat shell elements positioned one above the other was developed. The implemented interface element can physically simulate the contact between the flat shell elements and connect the reference planes of the shell elements above and below it. The formulation presented allows considera

3. Convalescent plasma therapy - a silver lining for COVID-19 management?
ABSTRACT The COVID-19 pandemic has pushed the world towards social, economic, and medical challenges. Scientific research in medicine is the only means to overcome novel and complex diseases like COVID-19. To sum up the therapeutic wild-goose chase, many available antivirals and repurposed drugs have failed to show successful clinical evidence in patient rec

4. Narcissism, risk and uncertainties: analysis in the light of prospect and fuzzy-trace theories
Abstract Purpose This study aims to analyze the relationship between the nonpathological traits of narcissism and decisions under conditions of uncertainty and risk in light of the prospect (PT) and fuzzy-trace theories (FTT). Design/methodology/approach This paper conducted an empirical-theoretical study with 210 Brazilian academics from the business area

6. Reliability and geotechnical safety applied to deep foundations in precast concrete piles - case study
Abstract The Brazilian standard pertinent to the design and execution of foundations, NBR 6122/2019, establishes that the safety inspection of foundations of a given project must be conducted based on compliance with specified safety factors. Safety factor verification is imperative to meet regulatory requirements; however, it is not enough to guarantee the

7. Comparison between traditional project appraisal methods and uncertainty analysis applied to mining planning
Abstract Long-term mining planning is a complex process which involves a large number of variables and uncertainties. Traditional discount cash flow (DCF) is usually used in the evaluation of mining projects. DCF includes net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR), and profitability index (PI). A sensitivity analysis is usually carried out to eva

8. Using the Interval Metric for Modeling Entities Geometrics in ℝ2 - Case Study Interval Circumference
ABSTRACT The study of some distances provide science a way to separate two entities. It has applications in various fields such as remote sensing, data mining, pattern recognition and multivariate data analysis and others. If the distance is a Hausdorff metric, the guarantee is that all individuals are available. With the use of the distance of Trindade et a

9. Materials Selection Using a 2-tuple Linguistic Multi-criteria Method
The materials selection can affect the design component radically, with effect on the manufacturing systems efficiency, environmental impact issues, and customer satisfaction. There are different methods employed for materials selection; however, two steps are usual for most of these methods: screening and ranking. The ranking step identifies among materials

10. Structural reliability model considering mixed probabilistic and interval variables
Abstract Traditional probability-based structural reliability analysis method can only consider random uncertainties described by random distribution functions, which required sufficient experimental samples. On comparison, interval uncertainties can be more appropriate when lacking information. In realistic situations, several structural reliability models

11. Pre-Adoption Diagnosis of the Intelligence Process in Organizations: A Delphi Study with Intelligence Practitioners
Abstract In turbulent and competitive scenarios, strategic intelligence is a crucial process for organizations to reduce uncertainties during decision-making and to anticipate changes that may affect their performance and sustainability. Despite the relevance of the activity, continuous and structured processes based on intelligence in organizations are not

12. Reliability-based calibration of Brazilian structural design codes used in the design of concrete structures
Resumo Este artigo apresenta a calibração, baseada em confiabilidade, dos coeficientes parciais de segurança das normas brasileiras utilizadas no dimensionamento de estruturas de concreto. O trabalho está fundamentado na teoria de confiabilidade, que permite uma representação explícita das incertezas envolvidas em termos das resistências e ações. N
