Opis:
In the field of shape and topology optimization the new concept is the topological derivative of a given shape functional. The asymptotic analysis is applied in order to determine the topological derivative of shape functionals for elliptic problems. The topological derivative (TD) is a tool to measure the influence on the specific shape functional of insertion of small defect into a geometrical domain for the elliptic boundary value problem (BVP) under considerations. The domain with the small defect stands for perturbed domain by topological variations. This means that given the topological derivative, we have in hand the first order approximation with respect to the small parameter which governs the volume of the defect for the shape functional evaluated in the perturbed domain. TD is a function defined in the original (unperturbed) domain which can be evaluated from the knowledge of solutions to BVP in such a domain. This means that we can evaluate TD by solving only the BVP in the intact domain. One can consider the first and the second order topological derivatives as well, which furnish the approximation of the shape functional with better precision compared to the first order TD expansion in perturbed domain. In this work the topological derivative is applied in the context of Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT). In particular, we are interested in reconstructing a number of anomalies embedded within a medium subject to a set of current fluxes, from measurements of the corresponding electrical potentials on its boundary. The basic idea consists in minimize a functional measuring the misfit between the boundary measurements and the electrical potentials obtained from the model with respect to a set of ball-shaped anomalies. The first and second order topological derivatives are used, leading to a non-iterative second order reconstruction algorithm. Finally, a numerical experiment is presented, showing that the resulting reconstruction algorithm is very robust with respect to noisy data.
W dziedzinie optymalizacji kształtu i topologii zaproponowano nową koncepcję pochodnej topologicznej danego funkcjonału kształtu. Zastosowano asymptotyczną analizę w celu określenia pochodnej topologicznej funkcjonału kształtu dla zagadnień eliptycznych. Pochodna Topologiczna – PT (ang. the topological derivative – TD) jest miarą wpływu wtrącenia w postaci małego defektu na funkcjonał kształtu w badanym obszarze dla eliptycznego zagadnienia brzegowego. Obszar z małym defektem traktowany jest jako obszar zaburzony przez zmiany topologii. Oznacza to, że dana pochodna topologiczna stanowi aproksymację pierwszego rzędu ze względu na mały parametr, który określa objętość defektu dla obliczanego funkcjonału kształtu w zaburzonym obszarze. PT jest funkcją zdefiniowaną w obszarze niezaburzonym, który może być wyznaczony na podstawie znajomości rozwiązania zagadnienia brzegowego w tym (niezaburzonym) obszarze. Oznacza to że PT może być wyznaczona poprzez rozwiązanie zagadnienia brzegowego w obszarze niezaburzonym. Można rozważyć pierwszego jak również drugiego rzędu pochodną topologiczną, zapewniającą aproksymację funkcjonału kształtu ze znacznie lepszą precyzją w porównaniu do PT pierwszego rzędu rozwinięcia w obszarze zaburzonym. W niniejszej pracy PT jest zastosowana w kontek- ście Elektrycznej Tomografii Impedancyjnej (ETI). W szczególności jesteśmy zainteresowani w rekonstrukcji pewnej liczby anomalii wewnątrz obszaru, na podstawie pomiarów potencjału na brzegu rozpatrywanego obszaru. Podstawowa idea zawarta jest w minimalizacji funkcjonału, będącego miarą niedopasowania między pomiarami potencjału na brzegu obszaru a potencjałem elektrycznym uzyskanym na podstawie modelu matematycznego uwzględniającego zbiór anomalii o kształcie kuli. Zastosowanie pierwszego i drugiego rzędu pochodnej topologicznej prowadzi do nieiteracyjnego algorytmu rekonstrukcyjnego drugiego rzędu. W zakończeniu artykułu przedstawiono eksperyment numeryczny, wykazujący, że zaproponowany algorytm obrazowania jest bardzo odporny na zaszumione dane pomiarowe.

Opis:
The Portuguese Naval Academy is a military school with an university status and is equipped with one modern navigation and maneuvering simulator. The Navigation Simulator (NAVSIM) plays an essential role in the academic training for the Naval Academy and for its cadets, that are using this capacity since their first academic year as a learning tool. Identifying the non-technical skills that could be trained and focusing on the specific training of the technical skills is paramount, in order to maximize the training sessions for each cadet’s year. The assessment of statistical data referring to the last 6 years is important to identify where there are gaps in the exercises, as well as how the midshipman are prepared to perform functions of watch keeping on the ships fleet.

Opis:
Metoda największej wiarygodności (MLE) służy do estymacji parametrów modelu statystycznego dla zadanych danych. Metoda ta pozwala na estymację nieznanych parametrów modelu statystycznego. Parametry te otrzymuje się poprzez maksymalizację funkcji wiarygodności rozważanego modelu. Często w praktyce metoda ta może jednak nastręczać trudności związane z wielomodalnością funkcji wiarygodności oraz niemożnością uzyskania jawnych analitycznych rozwiązań równań wiarygodności. Równania takie można jedynie rozwiązywać za pomocą metod numerycznych. Trudności te dobrze ilustruje estymacja parametrów rozkładu Weibulla z wykorzystaniem metody największej wiarygodności wykonywana w oparciu o prawostronnie cenzurowane dane z eksploatacji. Rozwiązanie przedstawione w niniejszej pracy opiera się na zastosowaniu algorytmu maksymalizacji wartości oczekiwanej (EM). Możliwości aplikacyjne proponowanej metodyki badano na przykładzie danych eksploatacyjnych uzyskanych z przedsiębiorstwa petrochemicznego, dotyczących awarii pięciu pomp odśrodkowych.
The maximum-likelihood estimation (MLE) is a method of estimating the parameters of a statistical model for given data. This method allows us to estimate the unknown parameters of a statistical model. These parameters are obtained by maximizing the likelihood function of the model in question. In many practical situations the likelihood function is associated with complex models and the likelihood equation has no explicit analytical solution, it is only possible to have its resolution through numerical methods. The estimation of the parameters of the Weibull distribution by maximum-likelihood method based on information from a historical record with right censored data shows this difficulty. The solution presented in this article entails using the Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm. Actual data from the historical record of 5 centrifugal pumps failures of a petrochemical company were analyzed for application of the methodology.

Opis:
Purpose: Otosclerosis is a metabolic bone disease of the otic capsule that can cause the stapes fixation, resulting in conductive hearing loss or, in a profound sensorineural deafness threshold. Surgery is one of the possible treatments for the otosclerosis. To repair small focus of otosclerosis in the anterior crus of the stapes, in 1960, Hough suggested the implementation of a technique in which part of the anterior crus is fractured and the stapes turned. As a result, the posterior crus of the stapes is the only connection with the inner ear. In this work, the outcome of Hough’s surgical technique was simulated. Methods: Based on computerized images, a finite element model of middle ear ossicles and tympanic membrane was created, as well as a model where the stapes has changed. The discretization of the tridimensional solid model was made using the ABAQUS software. The mechanical properties used were taken from the literature and adequate boundary conditions were applied. Results: The results obtained with the Hough technique simulation were compared with a representative model of the normal ear, taking into account the displacements obtained on the central part of the stapes footplate and the maximum principal stress in the stapes crus. Conclusions: The results obtained are closer to the normal ear model, therefore Hough technique stands out as a good option to correct small focus of otosclerosis.

Opis:
The objectives of this study were to confirm the shape memory behavior of two new bioresorbable terpolymers (L-lactide, glycolide, and trimethylene carbonate: L-PLGTMC and B-PLGTMC), to follow the influence of the shape memory process on their surface properties and to test their cytocompatibility using osteoblast-like cells. For this purpose, foils of both terpolymers were prepared. The terpolymers' ability to recover up to 92-93% of the memorized shape within 10 seconds was obtained. The influence of shape memory process on the surface properties was assessed by water contact angle (WCA) measurement and atomic force microscopy (AFM) and the results suggested that both terpolymers preserved the hydrophilicity after recovery and also that B-PLGTMC polymer was rougher than L-PLGTMC (about 9 folds more). The AFM pictures showed the presence of spherical shape hills on the B-PLGTMC foil surface which after the stretching procedure became oriented toward the direction of the applied load. The terpolymers were seeded on both sides (Top and Bottom faces) with human MG63 osteoblast-like cells. Cell viability was assessed after 1, 3 and 7 days, using MTT assay. Results revealed an increasing number of metabolically active cells with the incubation time, suggesting, together with nitric oxide (NO) level determination, the cytocompatibility of both terpolymers. Cell spreading and morphology were investigated by H&E staining and obtained results corresponded well with ones of MTT and NO.

Opis:
Flood events in many river basins with highly variable discharge values remove accumulated sediments from the riverbed and estuaries. These sediments are exported to the shelf and the adjacent coastlines. Data for rainfall and river discharge for the Guadiana River basin in southwestern Iberia show a strong link with North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) index patterns. A negative NAO index usually results in more rainfall, and subsequent flooding in the river basin during winter months. During the second half of the 20th century, the flow regime of the Guadiana River and its tributaries have been increasingly constrained by the construction of dams. The consequences were a reduction of coarse-grained sediment export from the upper river basin to the estuary, and a reduction in the number and type of floods.

Opis:
The cost-effectiveness of resistive plate chamber detectors and their very good timing characteristics, open the possibility to build affordable time-of-flight positron emission tomography systems with a large axial field-of-view. Simulations suggest that, under reasonable assumptions, the absolute 3D true sensitivity, spatial resolution, and noise equivalent count rate of such systems for human whole-body screening, may exceed that of present crystal-based PET technology. However, due to the lack of energy resolution, although having energy sensitivity, the scatter fraction is expected to be considerably higher than that presented by crystal-based PET scanners. In the present paper, the simulation work done so far to access the expected performance of a resistive plate chamber time-of-flight-PET system with 2400 mm length axial field-of-view, a time resolution of 300 ps full width at half maximum for photons pairs, and depth-of-interaction information, will be revised.

Opis:
This work focuses on finding a numerical solution for vehicle acoustic studies and improving the usefulness of the numerical experimental parameters for the development stage of a new automotive project. Specifically, this research addresses the importance of modal cavity damping for vehicle exerts during numerical studies. It then seeks to suggest standardized parameter values of modal cavity damping in vehicular acoustic studies. The standardized value of modal cavity damping is of great importance for the study of vehicular acoustics in the automotive industry because it would allow the industry to begin studies of the acoustic performance of a new vehicle early in the conception phase with a reliable estimation that would be close to the final value measured in the design phase. It is common for the automotive industry to achieve good levels of numerical-experimental correlation in acoustic studies after the prototyping phase because this phase can be studied with feedback from the simulation and experimental modal parameters. Thus, this research suggests values for modal cavity damping, which are divided into two parts due to their behaviour: ξ(x) = −0.0126(x − 100) + 6.15 as a variable function to analyse up to 100 Hz and 6.15% of modal cavity damping constant for studies between 30 Hz and 100 Hz. The sequence of this study shows how we arrived at these values.

Thin films of hydrogenated amorphous silicon deposited on glass and crystalline silicon substrates by rf plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition at different rf power were studied using slow positron beam and the Raman scattering spectroscopy in order to verify the influence of that deposition parameter on the film defect structure and on the degree of disorder. By positron annihilation spectroscopy, it was found that there are mainly two types of defects in the films: large vacancy clusters or voids and small vacancy type defects. By micro-Raman spectroscopy it was observed that the degree of structural disorder is lower for the film with large vacancy clusters and this finding was related to structural relaxation process. Light soaking induced changes attributed to major atomic rearrangements were also observed.

Opis:
This paper discusses silica surface modification by a process involving a two-step reaction: anchoring of a silylating agent, followed by an attachment of a 4-amino-2-mercaptopyrimidine molecule. The modified material (Si-BP) was successfully characterized by the FTIR spectra, which revealed amine absorption bands, and through 13C and 29Si NMR spectra, which confirm the proposed structure of the modified silica (Si-BP). Si-BP was used to extract cadmium and lead from an aqueous medium at 298 K. The Si-BP kinetics towards metal ions was very fast, i.e., about 10 minutes, although extraction was significantly impaired at pH 3. The series of adsorption isotherms were adjusted to a modified Langmuir equation and the maximum extraction capacity was 0.193 and 0.387 mmol g-1 for Cd(II) and Pb(II), respectively. An analysis of the Ř values lead to the inference that the resulting metal ligand complex was type 1:1.

Positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy was used to study the free volume parameters in polypropylene oxide-based tri-isocyanate terminated prepolymer/polycaprolactone diol bi-soft urethane/urea membranes (PU/PCL) with PCL content from 5 up to 25 wt%. Positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy measurements carried out in the temperature range 298-324 K mirrored the phase separation of the various soft and hard segments present in the membranes. The size and amount of free volume holes determined by positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy appear to be correlated with the $CO_2$ gas permeability through the membranes.

Opis:
The net radiation over vegetated surfaces is one of the major input variables in many models of soil evaporation, evapotranspiration as well as leaf wetness duration. In the literature there are relatively few studies on net radiation over sugarcane crop in tropical climates. The main objective of the present study was to assess the solar radiation components measured and modelled for two crop stages of a sugarcane crop in the region of Rio Largo, Alagoas, North-eastern Brazil. The measurements of the radiation components were made with a net radiometer during the dry and rainy seasons and two models were used to estimate net radiation: the Ortega-Farias model and the Monteith and Unsworth model. The highest values of net radiation were observed at the crop development stage, due mainly to the high indices of incoming solar radiation. The daily average albedos of sugarcane at the crop development and mid-season stages were 0.16 and 0.20, respectively. Both models showed a better fit for the crop development stage than for the mid-season stage. When they were inter-compared, Monteith and Unsworth model was more efficient than Ortega-Farias model, despite the dispersion of their simulated radiation components which was similar.

Opis:
A microporous SAPO-11 Molecular sieve was successfully synthesized by the hydrothermal method, using a single agent, as an organic template: di-isopropylamine (DIPA). The obtained solid was calcined at 550C for three hours, after which the flow of nitrogen was exchanged for that of synthetic air and submitted for another ten hours of calcination, so as to remove the single agent: di-isopropylamine, which after the removal of the template could be observed by the high crystallization of the sample. Furthermore, the molecular sieve was characterized by XRD, SEM, TG-DTG and N2 adsorption desorption (BET analysis). The obtained catalyst proved to have a high potential catalytic activity and selectivity, through the obtained characterization results, exhibiting good hydrothermal stability. The catalytic performance of SAPO-11 was tested by the deactivation/regenerability of the coked sample, furthered by cracking of n-hexane reaction and high olefins selectivity was obtained.

Opis:
ObjectivesTo assess the seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in municipal employees of Northern Portugal during the first pandemic wave (May–June 2020) and its association with potentially related risk factors for infection.Material and MethodsThe authors assessed municipal employees of 2 cities in Northern Portugal, in whom serological tests to SARS-CoV-2 and an epidemiological survey were applied. The authors assessed the proportion of individuals presenting IgM and/or IgG antibodies to SARS-CoV-2, and evaluated the association between having positive serological test results, epidemiologic variables and clinical presentations. Reported symptoms were evaluated on their sensitivity, specificity, and predictive values.ResultsThe authors assessed 1696 employees, of whom 22.0% were firefighters, 10.4% were police officers, 10.3% were maintenance workers, and 8.1% were administrative assistants. The seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infection was 2.9% (95% CI: 2.1–3.7%). Administrative assistants comprised the professional group with highest seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 (OR = 1.9 in the comparison with other occupational groups, 95% CI: 0.8–4.3, p = 0.126). The seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infection among those who were in direct contact with COVID-19 patients in their professional activity was 3.9%, compared to 2.7% among those who were not in direct contact with such patients (OR = 1.5, 95% CI: 0.8–2.8, p = 0.222). The highest risk of infection was associated with the presence of a confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection in the household (OR = 17.4, 95% CI: 8.3–36.8, p < 0.001). Living with a healthcare professional was not associated with a higher risk of infection (OR = 1.0, 95% CI: 0.4–2.5, p = 0.934). Anosmia/dysgeusia was the symptom with the highest positive predictive value (52.2%, 95% CI: 31.8–72.6, p < 0.001) and specificity (99.3%, 95% CI: 98.9–99.7, p < 0.001), while cough was the most prevalent symptom among SARS-CoV-2 seropositive participants (36%).ConclusionsThe authors observed a SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence of 2.9% among assessed municipal employees. Anosmia/dysgeusia was the COVID-19 symptom which displayed the highest positive predictive value and specificity.

Opis:
Positron annihilation techniques are used for the structural investigation of solids but the interpretation of results in grainy and porous media is still unclear. A unique picture can be obtained assuming that the dominant process is Ps trapping in competing "extended free volume" sites. In samples with a large amount of free volumes near-saturation Ps trapping will rule the lifetime pattern, and very long lifetimes of over 100 ns might arise from o-Ps trapped in mesopores. It is shown that lifetime parameters must be corrected for the 3γ/2γ counting efficiency ratio. The results demonstrate the high sensitivity of Ps to mesopores in zeolites but also that Ps-trapping poses limitations on the applicability of lifetime to structural investigation in porous systems. The evolution of the lifetime spectra upon changes in the sample and measuring conditions should be considered in a complex way, observing not only changes in some selected components but in the whole lifetime pattern simultaneously.
