Export Diversification and Economic Growth: Evidence From Emerging Economies
Authors: BENLİ Muhammed
Published: May 2020

Although export expansion is considered to be an important component of development strategies, how and what type of exports contributes to economic growth has been still an open question. As a matter of fact, the export promotion also does not necessarily lead to economic growth. Revealing the true effect requires considering not only macroeconomic conditions and market structure of exporting countries but also what products and services these countries export. In this context, this paper not only investigates the long run relationship between economic growth, export diversification and domestic investment using panel cointegration techniques but also examines the causal relationship between these variables employing the causality test of Konyá (2006) in 19 emerging economies for the period 1995 - 2017. Panel cointegration test results do not provide evidence of a long run relationship between the variables while Konyá's (2006) causality test reveals various results for different countries.

Published: May 2020

This paper examines the saving-investment nexus and the level of capital mobility for the BRICS and Fragile Five countries within the scope of the Feldstein-Horioka (1980) puzzle that asserts a substantial correlation between domestic investment and domestic savings in spite of the increasing capital mobility in the world. It is used the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) bounds test approach for the period 1980-2018 on a country-by-country to identify the nature of the saving retention coefficient. Findings of the paper reveal the Feldstein–Horioka (1980) puzzle holds for China, South Africa and Turkey period examined while there is not any long-run relationship between savings and investment in Brazil, India and Indonesia. Based on the saving-retention coefficients range from 0.46 to 0.74 for the four countries which there is a cointegration between saving and investment, there is moderate to low capital mobility in these countries.

Housing Planning for Informal Settlements: Pante-Macassar (East Timor)
Authors: Santos Ana , Virtudes Ana
Published: May 2020

Regeneration of informal settlements is a topic being studied worldwide. Generally, cities comprise informal settlements, and consequently sustainability problems, requiring urgent actions. Often, the solutions regarding informal settlements do not adequately consider the local features, leading to difficulties such as environmental and public health deteriorations, weakening of housing access or troubles related to economic sustainability. Additionally, some housing programs don’t fit in community characteristics of social inequalities and poverty.  In this sense, this paper intends to show the results of the development of a research methodology, to carry out strategies and to pursuit strategies of rethinking informal housing settlements, in an integrated and resilient way. It concludes with the application of a theoretical model to an informal neighbourhood in Pante Macassar, a city in the Oé-Cusse region of East Timor. The interest in this approach results from an ongoing Doctorate program in Civil Engineering at the University of Beira Interior, focused on the development of a set of good practice guidelines for the informal city regeneration. It aims to identify and assess informal and unhealthy features of urban settlements and their integration at city scale. The theoretical-conceptual issue addresses the informal settlements, comparing with formal housing programs.
Softened Variable Angle Truss Model (RA-STM): Model Description and Refinement/Optimization Proposals
Authors: Filho Benedito , Bernardo Luís , Horowitz Bernardo
Published: May 2020

This article presents a recent softened truss model with variable angle, namely the refined RA-STM (Rotating-Angle Softened Truss Model), to model the behaviour of structural concrete plates under pure shear.  The equations of the model, as well as the solution procedure, are summarized. Some predictions from the RA-STM are also presented, discussed and compared with experimental results available in the literature. It is shown that the refined RA-STM still needs to be refined. In addition, the need to generalize the RA-STM for more general loading cases is also discussed as well as the need to optimize the solution procedure in order to facilitate its computational implementation.

Authors: Grünhäuser Soares Erick , Castro-Gomes João
Published: May 2020

In this preliminary study, the effect of glass powder content at early age compressive strength and its effect at strength retention coefficient during water immersion period on magnesium silicate hydroxide cement pastes on carbonation curing was investigated. A magnesium oxide-rich powder with a maximum grain size of 150 μm was used, as well as, a waste glass powder with a maximum grain size of 250 μm, which was obtained from grinded flint glass bottles. Cement pastes were produced with 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 glass powder weight percentage. The specimens were compacted into cubic moulds (e = 20 mm) under 70 MPa and, subsequently, cured on accelerate carbonation chamber for 2h at >99% CO2 concentration. The compressive strength was determined 3 days after CO2, period which the specimens were preserved on room conditions (20∘C and 60%RH), and also at 3, 7 and 14 days of water immersion period. Comparison of the results obtained for different mixing compositions, as well as, different water immersion periods are discussed in this work.

Published: May 2020

Vortex Induced Vibration (VIV) of structures is of practical interest to many fields of engineering. The particular case of a rigid cylinder mounted under elastic supports and constrained to oscillate in a single direction is modelled using OpenFOAM’s two-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations with k-ω SST turbulence model. The model aimed for relativelly low Reynolds numbers (2500 ≤ Re ≤ 15000) and the results were compared with Khalak and Williamson’s experimental results with the intent of also evaluating maximum amplitude to diameter ratio, A/D, achieving good agreement between both computational and experimental data.

Published: May 2020

Aim of this study was to produce alkali-activated foams with low thermal conductivity. Different precursors’ maximum particles sizes of 150μm, 300μm, and 500μm using a blend of 70% tungsten mining waste mud (TWM), 20% grounded waste glass (WG) and 10 % metakaolin (MK) with sodium silicate (SS) and sodium hydroxide (SH) as original material. Aluminium powder (Al) was used as a blowing agent and added first to the dry mix by changing content from 0.1g to 0.5g. Precursors and activators were mixed together to produce a homogeneous mixture, which was placed into a mould (100x200x60 mm3), and cured in the oven at 60∘C for 24 hours. The effect on foaming properties of different precursors maximum particles sizes were studied. The AAFs exhibited 28 day compressive strengths ranging from 2.28 to 16.1 MPa with the different densities from 913 to 1647 kg/m3 achieved through alteration of the foaming content. The thermal conductivity of AAFs was in the range 0.21– 0.33 W/m*K. Open celled hardened of the AAFs with 0.5g Al shows a high porosity of 58% with the mix made with 500μm. Therefore, tungsten mining waste-based alkali-activated foams shows a promise as thermal insulation material in some situations.

Authors: Matias Isabel , Virtudes Ana
Published: May 2020

Soft mobility is on the top of city’s agenda. Several plans are emerging to improve its performance, regarding sustainable, climate-friendly or easy ways of mobility, without using the car. The political decision-makers, urban designers and academics are working upon new approaches of developing these skills. In sloping cities, specially with ancient roots of narrow and winding streets, the bicycle is still a tricky way of transportation, because it can represent a deep changing of previous urban fabric. This paper presents a set of good practices of bicycles use as soft mobility solution in mountain cities. The example is the sloping city of Trondheim in Norway. The interest for this topic lies in the ongoing Doctorate program in Civil Engineering at the University of Beira Interior, having as case study the city of Covilhã. The system is called CycloCable and it’s the first cycle lift for collective transport designed to help cyclists moving easily to overcome urban slopes. The literature review is the main methodological approach, identifying the good practices of CycloCable, which can be used in other cities with similar morphological conditions. The conclusion has revealed that this system increases the number of cyclists, with environmental, economic and social benefits.

Authors: Lopes Afonso Márcia , Albuquerque António , Fael Cristina , Dinis- Almeida Marisa
Published: May 2020

A permeable asphalt pavement (PP) and a conventional asphalt pavement (PD) have been tested regarding the potential leaching of the metals Cd, Cr, Fe, Pb, Mn, Ni and Zn during 11 rain events immediately after their construction. Water samples were picked up for the rain water and in four sampling points of both pavements during every rain, two located at the surface of the pavements (PPE and PDE), and other two after infiltration in the pavements (PPI and PDI). The results show that there was introduction and transport of Cr, Fe, Pb, Mn, Ni and Zn during surface runoff on pavements. After water infiltration in the pavements, there was significant removal of Cr in the PD pavement, Pb and Zn concentrations did not decrease in depth and concentrations of Fe and Ni increased after infiltration. However, the concentrations of all metals in the leaching water are very low comparing with the minimum standard legal values set up for irrigation and discharge on water courses.

Authors: Filizzola Oliveira Marina , Sedira Naim , Cláudia Guimarães Ana , Lameiras Fernando , Castro-Gomes João
Published: May 2020

The iron ore beneficiation process produces a large quantity of waste. Mining companies are looking for technologies that make it possible to dispose of their waste and transform it into raw material for the manufacture of products that can be applied in other areas, for example in the production of concrete, mortar, ceramics, blocks, and bricks. This study aimed at the feasibility of using a calcined iron ore overburden as a precursor of alkali-activated binders. For alkaline activation of the precursors, sodium hydroxide solution and sodium silicate were used in the atomic proportions Al / Na = 2 and Si / Al> 0,7. Mineralogical and microstructural characterization was carried out by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDX). Tests of compressive strength were performed for the binders with 7, 14, 21 and 28 of curing days. The results of the analyses demonstrated that the properties of the alkali-activated binders produced with the overburden were similar to the binders obtained by precursors used traditionally. It was found, therefore, that the calcined iron ore overburden, can be considered a precursor for obtaining alkaline activated binders

Published: May 2020

This study investigates the effect of the increasingly compressing pressures on the properties of the low liquid-to-solid (L/S) ratio binary alkali-activated binder to use as a binder for the manufacturing of engineered stones. The binders were a combination of two types of wastes (aluminosilicate source) as precursors (TMWM 50 Vt.% + EAF-Slag 50 Vt.%), blended with (11.11 wt.%) alkaline activator solution (NaOH/Na2SiO3 with weight ratio 4/1). The mixtures were molded in cube and exposed to five different pressures (20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 MPa) in order to obtain a compressed alkali-activated binder. The main evaluation techniques in this study were compressive strength, and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The results showed that the maximum compressive strength (50.57 MPa) was obtained at a pressing pressure 100 MPa at twenty-eight days of testing.
Constructive Retrofit Guidelines for Social Housing Buildings in Beira Interior Region, Portugal, for Actual and Future Climate Scenarios
Authors: Brandão Pedro , Lanzinha João
Published: May 2020

An important part of the Portuguese social housing building stock is unappropriated regarding the actual regulation and resident’s comfort requirements, which are expected to increase due to the impact of climate change. Beira Interior region in Portugal is one of the fewest Portuguese zones that presents both winter and summer most severe scenarios in many places. Future climate scenario projections for this region indicate more aggressive summer seasons, with the occurrence of heat waves becoming more significant, while winter seasons are expected to maintain a rigorous profile. The present article, which reflects the work still in progress, presents the development of a proper methodology for social housing retrofit in Beira Interior region for present and projected climate scenarios under Portuguese realistic cooling/heating habits of occupants. It focuses on monitoring internal temperatures in order to understand actual dwellings performance considering occupant behaviour, along with the construction of a dynamical multi-zone model for dynamical thermal simulations. Comparing the results with appropriate thermal comfort standards, proper retrofit measures will be identified and tested. Therefore, it is aimed the accomplishment of constructive retrofit guidelines, which are expected to be valuable tools for stakeholders interested in the retrofit of the Portuguese social housing stock.
Monitoring of Reinforced Concrete for Decision Support in Maintenance Management Systems
Authors: Romano Pedro , Castro Gomes João , Brito Paulo
Published: May 2020

The goal of this study is to collect and validate relevant information on the degradation of reinforced concrete exposed to aggressive environments, such as chlorides or sulfates, for later incorporation in maintenance management systems compatible with the BIM methodology (Building Information Modeling). To achieve this, two simultaneous monitoring systems were used, one that allows measuring the ionic resistivity of the concrete and another that measures the corrosion potential and polarization resistance of the reinforcement. With the first monitoring system, it is intended to monitor the changes occurring in the concrete at the level of its ionic conductivity during the contamination process. The second system allows, at a later stage of the concrete degradation process, to detect signs of corrosion of the reinforcement inserted therein. Both systems provide readings at 10mm and 30 mm depth measured from the face exposed to the action of the degradation agents. The results obtained for chloride contamination show that the ionic resistivity of the concrete tends to decrease with the progression of the chlorides in depth, leading at a later stage to the corrosion of the reinforcement, which can be detected by the reduction of corrosion potential. Also, the polarization resistance of the reinforcement has been reduced when corrosion phenomena begin to develop in the reinforcement. The results related to the sulfate attack suggest a mechanism that leads to the formation of a barrier that prevents the progression of the attack in depth. The consequence of this phenomenon is a reduction of the ionic mobility of the concrete, leading to the increase of resistivity. This mechanism associated with the absence of mechanical actions that force the progression of sulfates in depth inhibits the development of corrosion processes of the reinforcement.

Authors: Nogueira Regina , Oliveira Aline , Da Costa Heliana , Albuquerque António , Scalize Paulo
Published: May 2020

In 1987, in Goiânia (Goiás, Brazil) a radiological accident occurred due to the violation of a capsule containing Cs-137, previously used in radiotherapy equipment. The source contained caesium chloride and, due to the high solubility of this compound in water, there was contamination of people and consequent dispersion in the environment. The waste was discharged into the river network and after four years, a high concentration of Cs-137 was still observed in the sediments at the Rochedo dam, in Piracanjuba, Goiás, 80 kilometres downstream of the Metropolitan Region of Goiânia. This research analysed the Cs-137 activity in sediment samples and water samples from the Rochedo dam, with the purpose of updating the radiological monitoring data of the region and also to verify if the perceived values would indicate any threat to the environment and public health. The Cs-137 activity was detected in 93.8% of the analysed samples, whose values varied from traces to 2.25 Bq/L. The results for all water samples and for 53.8% of the sediment samples were below the minimum detectable activity by the equipment. This study showed that Cesium-137 activity seem to be very low in the water resources and sediments of the Rochedo dam and it seems to not offer radiological risks for public health and the environment.

Authors: Andrade Santos Rita , Flores-Colen Inês , Vieira Simões Nuno , Dinis Silvestre José
Published: May 2020

The purpose of this study is to explore the relationship between solar orientation, age (constructive characterization) and energy performance of Portuguese residential building stock and to assess the usefulness of exploring the Portuguese National System for Energy and Indoor Air Quality Certification of Buildings (SCE) database through multivariate analysis techniques. By using principal components technique, it was possible to condense the residential units’ features to only four principal components (PC): solar orientation; constructive characterization; geometry and energy performance, making information more workable. Grouping the entities into Clusters with favourable and unfavourable solar orientation and old buildings allowed to dilute the particularities of each entity, facilitating the interpretation of the data through generalization. A regression model was generated in order to explore/confirm which factors influence summer comfort the most. Using this approach, it was illustrated that the exploration of the SCE database through multivariate data analyses has an enormous potential to convert data into knowledge.

Published: May 2020

Currently, the importance of the condominiums technical management and the organization of their annual budgets (with an enormous preponderance of the funds reserve) is not recognized in the decision-making process regarding the maintenance and rehabilitation actions of multi-family buildings. For this reason, it is of particular interest the development of models and technical tools, some that could help to list/report pathologies/anomalies as well as the correlation between the listed pathologies/anomalies and the building, and some others that may consolidate the technical legacy, in order to understand the importance of maintenance labor in the quality and durability of buildings. In this context, the article reflects, in its essence, a proposal for guidelines elaboration for the conditions assessment of the current multi-family buildings envelope in a condominium regime, carried out within the scope of a curricular unit and an ongoing PhD thesis project. The demonstration of the methodologies and tools developed for this evaluation, with the differentiation between a preliminary evaluation and a detailed evaluation, complemented by the brief presentation of a case study, is of particular importance in this work. The work also includes the reference of the importance of this study in the future development of the thesis, as well as the schematic demonstration of other complementary works for it.
Disminución de la tasa de operación cesárea en la Fundación Clínica Valle del Lili
Authors: Cobo C. Edgar
Published: May 2020

Hace seis años venimos trabajando en la búsqueda de intervenciones que nos permitan disminuir las altas tasas de operación cesárea en más bajas entre las clínicas privadas de la ciudad y reducciones significativas en indicaciones como cesárea previa y distocia diagnosticada durante el embarazo. El último período analizado, 1998-1999, corresponde a la apertura de nuestro Servicio a las madres usuarias del Plan Obligatorio de Salud (POS) y a la inserción de dos intervenciones: la atención del parto normal por médicas generales y la discusión semanal con los especialistas institucionales de las indicaciones de las cesáreas realizadas. La tasa de cesárea mostró una reducción significativa desde 67.8% a 30.0%, siendo más baja en las usuarias del POS (27.1%) que en las usuarias de sistemas privados (MPP) de atención (57.4%). Con la excepción de la cesárea iterativa, que aumentó significativamente en las usuarias de MPP, se observaron disminuciones significativas en la práctica de cesáreas primarias, distocia, sufrimiento fetal agudo y presentación podálica. Se observó que la cesárea por solicitud materna aumentó en el grupo de usuarias de MPP y no ocurrió en el de pacientes del POS. No sabemos cual es el impacto de las intervenciones descritas, ya que se requeriría un estudio clínico aleatorizado costoso y de muy difícil realización, pero se hace una amplia discusión de los resultados obtenidos después de introducirlas.

Educación Especial y sus implicancias en contextos de diversidad cultural: análisis desde La Araucanía
Authors: Gutierrez-Saldivia Ximena del carmen , Rivera Gutiérrez Catalina
Published: May 2020

Objetivo: Este artículo plantea un análisis crítico sobre la Educación Especial en contextos de diversidad cultural confrontando supuestos teóricos asociados al enfoque médico, la teoría del etiquetamiento y perspectiva de poder. Método: El análisis se desarrolla a través de la revisión de literatura científica y normativa nacional e internacional, empleando un método documental-descriptivo. La recuperación de documentos se realizó́ desde las bases de datos Web of Science, Scopus y Scielo. Estrategias: Un análisis de los documentos recuperados ha permitido establecer que la Educación Especial en contextos de diversidad cultural podría constituir un dispositivo de control para homogeneizar a la población escolar, lo que se realiza a través de un sistema de clasificación y etiquetado, donde se utilizan procedimientos como el examen y el diagnóstico, en base a estándares aplicados por el grupo dominante. Originalidad: El artículo contribuye a la problematización de la educación especial en contextos educativos interculturales para avanzar hacia respuestas educativas culturalmente pertinentes. Se puede concluir que, tanto en Latinoamérica como en la región de La Araucanía se requiere repensar la Educación Especial desde nuevos marcos epistemológicos –como la interculturalidad critica– que permitan reconocer y valorar la diversidad cultural.

Authors: Bustamante Vismara Jose
Published: May 2020

Objetivo: ¿Qué es posible conocer acerca de las actividades cotidianas de los escolares de mediados del siglo XIX? ¿En qué sentidos atender a sus actividades puede servir para comprender aspectos de la sociedad hispanoamericana? Método: El trabajo recupera experiencias vividas en ámbitos educativos del valle de Toluca en el Estado de México a mediados del siglo XIX atendiendo, fundamentalmente, a sus alumnos. Un punto de intersección entre la historia de la educación y la de la infancia. Estrategias: En el análisis se caracterizarán pautas ligadas a sus asistencias, vivencias cotidianas y castigos. Con un análisis cualitativo se recuperan testimonios de distintos archivos, en los que el privilegio de la perspectiva es advertido desde fuentes recuperadas en repositorios históricos municipales de la región de Toluca, México. Originalidad: A partir de la tarea ha sido posible atender a especificidades que difícilmente hubieran podido reconocerse desde miradas más generales y se concluye que la esquiva visibilidad de estos alumnos responde a aspectos propios de la sociedad en el período.

Universidad y currículo: El caso de la Universidad del Tolima (1955 A 1962)
Authors: Giraldo Pérez Sonia
Published: May 2020

Objetivo: Con esta comunicación se busca presentar un análisis de la estructura curricular que se materializó en los primeros programas académicos en la Universidad del Tolima entre 1955 y 1962. Expone, para ello, algunos motivos políticos que conllevaron a acogerlos en la naciente universidad. Metodología: La investigación responde a un enfoque histórico-hermenéutico, con un diseño orientado hacia el análisis documental. Estrategias: Las fuentes principales están constituidas por los actos administrativos emanados por el Consejo Directivo de la Universidad del Tolima y su análisis mediante la descripción de los mismos. Originalidad: Presentamos, en consecuencia, algunos programas ofertados por la Universidad del Tolima que configuraron tres de las facultades del área agropecuaria y dos institutos tecnológicos, agrupados, todos, en siete escuelas. Conclusiones: El estudio sugiere que las vicisitudes acaecidas en este periodo llevaron al Estado a redireccionar las políticas educativas mediante la invitación de misiones académicas internacionales que contribuyeron a crear instituciones educativas que, a su vez, permitieron la creación de universidades en algunas regiones de Colombia. Como caso particular del análisis, la Universidad del Tolima se destaca ya que, desde su creación, buscó la formación de profesionales para el sector agropecuario y tecnológico.
subsidio como arma represiva del estado mexicano. La Universidad michoacana durante la rectoría de Alberto Bremauntz (1963-1966)
Authors: Rangel Hernández Lucio
Published: May 2020

Objetivo: El artículo se enfoca en establecer las razones que movieron al Estado mexicano a someter a la Universidad Michoacana a un ambiente de hostilidad y a un régimen represivo centrado esencialmente en el congelamiento del subsidio asignado para su funcionamiento; a mostrar cómo repercutió en la marcha de la casa de estudios esta política represiva; y a analizar la respuesta de la comunidad universitaria nicolaita ante esta embestida. A través de un métodoanalítico y comparativo, contrastamos el subsidio otorgado a la universidad y en general la política educativa aplicada a la institución por el gobernador Agustín Arriaga Rivera, con respecto a la practicada por su antecesor, licenciado David Franco Rodríguez, para lo cual mediante la estrategia recurrimos a la consulta de fuentes documentales, bibliográficas, hemerográficas y orales. Este trabajo contribuye desde su originalidad al conocimiento de las conflictivas relaciones entre las universidades autónomas y el Estado autoritario mexicano. Como conclusión: el resultado de esta investigación muestra que la permanente y sistemática política de hostigamiento se debió a la oposición de los nicolaitas ante la imposición del modelo educativo empresarial de origen estadounidense, en sustitución del modelo de universidad popular y nacionalista que habían heredado y adoptado desde los tiempos del régimen cardenista.

Importance of Oral Ritual Calendric Poetry
Authors: HYKOLLİ Atdhe , KRASNİQİ Seniha
Published: May 2020

Calendric lyric poetry as a folk tradition plays an important role in ethnic cultures. It is an area where cultural researchers, anthropologist and sociologists find answers to a lot of questions. Oral folk tradition in general and calendric lyric poetry therein is rich in their content, history and variety. This paper will present the importance of oral calendric lyric poetry and its relevance regarding the acquaintance and comprehension of ethnic culture. The paper will reveal the connection of old tradition to later religious festivities as well as their connection with ethnic history and culture. Ritual songs are the most common songs of the oral poetry. We find them in different cultures and are considered the oldest type of oral literature. Ritual songs accompanied seasonal changes and can be classified as winter, spring, and summer songs. As an example, winter songs (calendric songs New Year’s songs) were sung toward the end of December and beginning of January in celebration of the sun’s return from its southern solstitial point. Charming style and content of these archaic songs lie in the reﬂection of an ancient culture in the form of primordial concepts, beliefs, and feelings. This paper will equally present the importance of oral calendric lyric poetry in Albanian culture as well as its relevance, meaning and preservation up to modern times.
