Authors: Aqel Ahmad , Obbed Munir , Ghfar Ayman A. , Yusuf Kareem , Alsubhi Ameen M. , Badjah-Hadj-Ahmed Ahmed
Published: November 2022

This work is associated with the preparation of capillary chromatographic columns containing inorganic-organic composites comprised of naturally occurring montmorillonite (MMT) clay mineral and polymethacrylate monolithic material. The prepared composites combine the best qualities of both constituents, offering desirable properties for use under the disparate conditions of both GC and HPLC at the same time. The stationary phases were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the specific surface area, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and examined in terms of various conditions utilized for GC and HPLC methods. The prepared columns demonstrated an excellent permeability and stability against common chromatographic conditions, such as the eluent type, flow rate, pressure, and temperature. The results confirmed that the addition of small amounts of MMT into the monolith induced significant improvement in the specific surface area, which contributed to the formation of more active sites and enhanced the retention of analytes. The registered column backpressures did not exceed 980 kPa and 16,500 kPa for the prepared GC and HPLC columns, respectively. The prepared columns were subjected to the separation of various interesting compounds possessing different chemistries and polarities, including alkanes, alkylbenzenes, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), alcohols, ketones, phenols, some common organic solvents, and isomeric mixtures. Under the optimal conditions, the efficiency of the columns fell between 4900–38,500 plates m−1 for GC and 3400–58,800 plates m−1 for capillary HPLC applications. In all cases, the measured chromatographic resolution was more than 1.38, with excellent an peak symmetry and low tailing factors. In comparison with the most commonly used commercial columns, the polysiloxane open tubular column for GC and silica-based C18 packed column for HPLC, the prepared GC columns demonstrated a faster separation with a higher efficiency, comparable resolution and tailing factors, and lower consumption of carrier gas. Regarding the capillary columns prepared for HPLC, the chromatographic experiments exposed a much lower run time with a comparable efficiency and resolution and drastically lower consumption of mobile phase solvents and samples. The results demonstrate that the MMT-based polymethacrylate monolith composites are applicable as novel and promising separation media for analyzing various mixtures of interest in different fields, such as petrochemical and environmental samples.

Published: November 2022

This study aims to assess the potential greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of delivering 1 kWh from planned offshore wind farm sites to the grid in the Guangdong Province, China. In contrast to most previous studies, we avoided underestimating GHG emissions per kWh by approximately 49% by adopting a spatialized life-cycle inventory (LCI)-improved stock-driven model under the medium scenario combination. We also developed a callable spatialized LCI to model the spatial differences in the GHG emissions per kWh by cells in planned offshore wind farm sites in Guangdong. The modeling results indicate that, under the medium scenario combination, the GHG emissions per kWh will range from 4.6 to 19 gCO2eq/kWh and the cells with higher emissions are concentrated in the deep-water wind farms in the eastern ocean of the Guangdong Province. According to the mechanism by which the different scenarios affect the modeling results, increasing the unit capacity of turbines is the most effective approach for reducing the GHG emissions per kWh and decreasing the impact of natural conditions. Air density can be used as an empirical spatial variable to predict the GHG emission potential of planned wind farm sites in Guangdong. The modeling framework in this study provides a more reliable quantitative tool for decision-makers in the offshore wind sector that can be used directly for any offshore wind system with a monopile foundation and be extended to wind power systems with other foundation types, or even to the entire renewable energy and other infrastructure systems after certain modifications.
Bond Performance of CFRP/Steel Double Strap Joint at Elevated Temperatures
Authors: Liu Yuwen , Chen Wei , Liu Chun , Li Na
Published: November 2022

Carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) has been used widely in the strengthening of steel structures. Steel/CFRP systems being subjected to elevated temperatures is realistic in summer climate events in many countries, which leads to the degradation of the bond performance between CFRP and steel. Therefore, it is critical to study the bond behavior of the CFRP/steel system under elevated temperature. This paper investigates the mechanical performance of CFRP/steel adhesively bonded double strap joints under different temperatures. Thirty CFRP/steel double strap joints were tested to failure under temperatures between 10 °C and 90 °C. It was found that the joint failure mode changed from adherend failure to debonding failure as the temperature was approaching glass transition temperatures. In addition, the ultimate load and joint stiffness decreased significantly under temperatures near to and higher than glass transition temperatures. Based on the experimental results, a model is proposed to predict the bond stress of the CFRP/steel under different temperatures.

Published: November 2022

Monitoring land-use patterns and its trends provides useful information for impact evaluation and policy design. The latest in-depth studies of land-use dynamics for continental Portugal are outdated, and have not examined how municipalities may be classified into a typology of observed dynamics or considered the trajectory profiles of land-use transitions. This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the spatiotemporal dynamics of land-use in continental Portugal from 1995 to 2018. Our multi-scalar approach used land-use maps in geographic information systems with the following objectives: (i) quantify variations of land-use classes, (ii) assess the transitions between uses, and (iii) derive a municipal typology of land-use dynamics. The methodology employed involved calculating statistical indicators of land-use classes, transition matrices between uses and combinatorial analysis for the most common trajectory-profiles. For the typology, a principal component analysis was used for dimensionality reduction and the respective components were classified by testing several clustering techniques. Results showed that the land-use transitions were not homogeneous in space or time, leading to the growth of territorial asymmetries. Forest (Δ5%), water bodies (Δ28%) and artificial surfaces (Δ35%) had a greater expansion, as opposed to agricultural areas, which had the biggest decline (Δ-8%). Despite the decline of agricultural activities, olive-grove expansion (Δ7%) was a relevant dynamic, and in the case of forests, the increment of eucalyptus (Δ34%) replaced native species such as the maritime pine (Δ-20%). A land-use-dynamics typology was estimated, dividing continental Portugal into 11 clusters, which is informative for sectoral policies and spatial planning, as zonings in need of interventions tailored to their specificities. The findings are a contribution to the study of land-use dynamics in continental Portugal, presenting various challenges for sustainable land uses with regard to the urban system, forest management, food production, soil preservation, and ecosystem protection.

Authors: Liang Kun , He Jun , Wu Peng
Published: November 2022

Purpose: High-involvement experience products (HIEP) are generally characterized by a high value and difficult purchasing decision for customers, and a wrong decision will bring large losses to consumers, severely affecting their trust in enterprises. The purpose of this paper is to solve the problem of trust evaluation of HIEP e-commerce enterprises. Tasks and research methods: First, given the heterogeneity of trust information in the big data context, this paper collects the reputation data of HIEP enterprises and the trust big data of enterprises in industry, commerce and justice by a crawler program. Next, we use the dictionary and pattern matching methods to extract the trust features in text big data and construct the trust evaluation feature set integrating judicial information. Then, based on machine learning methods, we propose a LAS-RS model, which aims to solve the problem of trust evaluation in an imbalanced and high-dimensional data context. Finally, by introducing signal theory, this paper reveals the differential influence mechanism of big data feature variables on the trust of HIEP e-commerce enterprises. Originality: This study further enriches the relevant theories and methods of e-commerce trust evaluation research and is conducive to a better understanding and control of potential trust risks.
Analysis of Financial Support for Forestry in the Czech Republic from the Perspective of Forest Bioeconomy
Authors: Rinn Radek , Jarský Vilém
Published: November 2022

The bioeconomy, as a new phenomenon using renewable resources, significantly affects the forestry sector in many countries. Individual countries have implemented forest policies by financially supporting forestry in different ways and for different reasons. The nature and targeting of this support vary from country to country. In a simplified way, it is possible to divide them into two categories: production support and environmental protection support (e.g., to ensure sustainable development). The aim of this article is to analyse the substantive focus of forestry subsidies from national sources in the Czech Republic and, subsequently, compare them with the Czech focus of a forest bioeconomy (FBE). The objective of this analysis is to analyse the financial support provided by the Ministry of Agriculture of the Czech Republic (MoA) between 2018 and 2021. As the Czech Republic’s FBE is not clearly defined, it was analysed and described with the help of the relevant national strategic and political documents. Subsequently, the obtained results were compared with each other to see if the financial subsidies were in line with the Czech FBE. The focus of the subsidies in the years under review is influenced by the situation in Czech forestry, which has faced a severe bark beetle outbreak, causing the financial sources provided to forest owners to increase significantly due to the bark beetle outbreak, which has affected the whole forest sector. The results show that some types of support are provided in accordance with FBE, while others are not. The general conclusions are that the financial support for forestry does not fully represent the Czech FBE.

Authors: Ferreira Ana , Pinheiro Manuel , Brito Jorge de , Mateus Ricardo
Published: November 2022

Retail stores are among the building typologies with the highest consumption of natural resources. However, studies regarding the development of Building Sustainability Assessment methods for retail buildings are missing, despite their environmental, economic, and social importance. This study intends to address this gap in knowledge by (i) developing the Portuguese method LiderA for retail buildings, (ii) comparing LiderA to other BSA methods, and (iii) assessing results in two case studies. The development of LiderA for retail buildings took under consideration the indicators, weights, and specific guidelines of different BSA methods for retail buildings (namely LEED, BREEAM, and DGNB) and trends in the retail sector expressed in retailers’ sustainability reports and retailers’ associations. The most innovative aspects of the development of LiderA for retail buildings include the definition of benchmarks to assess sustainability performance in terms of Energy Intensity (EI), Carbon Intensity (CI), and Water Intensity (WI). Additionally, sustainable business operation practices were introduced in selected indicators as an alternative way to foster the roots of sustainability further down into the value chain, namely regarding ethical and sustainable product purchases, the protection of human rights, a code of conduct for suppliers, fair trade, product traceability, healthy food, sustainable agriculture, and local and organic products. The LiderA method, developed for retail buildings, can support designers, managers, and users in designing and managing more sustainable stores by providing benchmarks and best-practice thresholds for EI, CI, and WI. Given that global retailers operate hundreds of stores, the results show a key potential to increase the environmental performance of retail stores, supporting decision-making towards maximum energy efficiency and carbon neutrality.

Published: November 2022

Microplastics (MPs), defined as plastics with diameters between 1 and 5000 µm, are problematic pollutants in the environment, but their removal is challenging because of their minute size. One promising approach for their removal is flotation because MPs are inherently hydrophobic. However, the very small particle size of MPs lowers the probability of MPs-bubble collision and attachment that in turn affects the efficiency of the process. To address this challenge, we propose the use of agglomeration-flotation, a technique using kerosene as a bridging liquid to enlarge the particle sizes of MPs and make them amenable to flotation. In this study, the effects of kerosene dosage on particle size enlargement and floatability of six types of MPs with 100–1000 µm size fractions were investigated. The results showed that MPs with lower density compared with water could easily float in water without bubble attachment and particle agglomeration required. So, the effects of agglomeration on removal were negligible. In contrast, agglomeration using kerosene enhanced the floatability of MPs with high-density plastics. Moreover, image analysis was used to determine the agglomerated MPs’ particle size. The results indicate that kerosene could agglomerate the MPs and enhanced the removal of MPs by agglomeration-flotation.

Published: November 2022

Recent studies have shown that the combined application of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and degradable chelating agents can enhance EDTA’s affinity for heavy metals and reduce its toxicity, but the effect of this combination on the phytoremediation remains largely unknown. This study evaluated and compared the effects of EDTA, nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA), and glutamic acid-N,N-diacetic acid (GLDA) alone (E, N, G treatment), and in combination (EN and EG treatment), on the growth of dwarf bamboo (Indocalamus decorus Q. H. Dai), their phytoremediation efficiency, and the soil environment in Pb-contaminated soil. The results showed that treatment E significantly reduced the biomass, while treatments N and EN were more conducive to the distribution of aerial plant biomass. Except for treatment E, the total Pb accumulation in all treatments increased significantly, with the highest increase in treatment EN. For double chelating agents, the acid-soluble Pb concentrations in rhizosphere and non-rhizosphere soils of treatments EN and EG were lower than those of treatment E, and the soil water-soluble Pb content after 20 days of treatment EN was significantly lower than that of treatment EG. Furthermore, chelating agents generally increased soil-enzyme activity in rhizosphere soil, indicating that chelating agents may promote plant heavy-metal uptake by changing the rhizosphere environment. In conclusion, treatment EN had the highest phytoremediation efficiency and significantly lower environmental risk than treatments E and EG, highlighting its massive potential for application in phytoremediation of Pb-contaminated soil when combined with I. decorus.

Published: November 2022

India suffers the highest incidence of snakebite envenomation (SBE) in the world. Rural communities within India and other countries have long-held cultural beliefs surrounding snakes and SBE treatments, with snake statues present in numerous Hindu temples. While most cultural beliefs are well respected and do not affect anyone, some people worship live venomous snakes without any safety precautions. Moreover, they practice various inappropriate first aid and traditional treatments that exacerbate SBE-induced complications. We report an unusual case of SBE on the tongue of a patient who was bitten while worshipping Russell’s viper following the advice of an astrologer based on the appearance of a snake in the patient’s dream. Following the bite, the tongue was deeply incised by the priest as a first aid to mitigate SBE-induced complications. The patient suffered profuse bleeding and swelling of the tongue resulting in difficulties in intubating them. The patient regained consciousness after antivenom administration, intranasal ventilation, and blood removal from the mouth. The tongue underwent extensive surgery to restore movement and function. This report advises caution to those undertaking the extremely risky practice of worshipping live snakes and emphasises the urgent need to develop and enforce policies to mitigate such actions and educate rural communities.

Published: November 2022

The venom of honeybees is composed of numerous peptides and proteins and has been used for decades as an anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer agent in traditional medicine. However, the bioactivity of specific biomolecular components has been evaluated for the predominant constituent, melittin. So far, only a few melittin-like peptides from solitary bee species have been investigated, and the molecular mechanisms of bee venoms as therapeutic agents remain largely unknown. Here, the preclinical pharmacological activities of known and proteo-transcriptomically discovered new melittin variants from the honeybee and more ancestral variants from phylogenetically older solitary bees were explored in the context of cancer and inflammation. We studied the effects of melittin peptides on cytotoxicity, second messenger release, and inflammatory markers using primary human cells, non-cancer, and cancerous cell lines. Melittin and some of its variants showed cytotoxic effects, induced Ca2+ signaling and inhibited cAMP production, and prevented LPS-induced NO synthesis but did not affect the IP3 signaling and pro-inflammatory activation of endothelial cells. Compared to the originally-described melittin, some phylogenetically more ancestral variants from solitary bees offer potential therapeutic modalities in modulating the in vitro inflammatory processes, and hindering cancer cell viability/proliferation, including aggressive breast cancers, and are worth further investigation.

Published: November 2022

Aflatoxin contamination in corn is a significant issue, posing substantial health threats to humans and animals. Aflatoxin testing protects consumer health, ensures the safe global trade of corn, and verifies compliance with legislation; however, effective sampling procedures are essential to ensure reliable results. While many sampling procedures exist, there is no evidence to indicate which is the best approach to ensure accurate detection. Using scientific and gray literature sources, this review analyzed sampling procedures to determine an optimum approach to guide the development of standard practices. Results revealed that sampling is the major source of error in the accurate assessment of aflatoxin levels in food and crucial for obtaining reliable results. To guarantee low variability and sample bias-increased sample size and sampling frequency, the use of automatic dynamic sampling techniques, adequate storage, and homogenization of aggregate samples for analysis are advised to ensure a representative sample. However, there is a lack of evidence to support this or indicate the current utilization of the reviewed procedures. Inadequate data prevented the recommendation of sample sizes or frequency for optimum practice, and thus, further research is required. There is an urgent need to make sampling procedures fit-for-purpose to obtain accurate and reliable aflatoxin measurements.

Published: November 2022

Recent Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) outbreaks in southeastern Australia have sparked interest into epidemiological factors surrounding the virus’ novel emergence in this region. Here, the geographic distribution of mosquito species known to be competent JEV vectors in the country was estimated by combining known mosquito occurrences and ecological drivers of distribution to reveal insights into communities at highest risk of infectious disease transmission. Species distribution models predicted that Culex annulirostris and Culex sitiens presence was mostly likely along Australia’s eastern and northern coastline, while Culex quinquefasciatus presence was estimated to be most likely near inland regions of southern Australia as well as coastal regions of Western Australia. While Culex annulirostris is considered the dominant JEV vector in Australia, our ecological niche models emphasise the need for further entomological surveillance and JEV research within Australia.

Published: November 2022

Phosphorus is an essential macronutrient that plays a crucial role in the regulation of the biological productivity and biogeochemical cycling of other biogenic elements. As a large tidal wetland dominated by reeds in Liaoning province, China, the Shuangtai estuary wetland is a unique ecosystem class. To better understand the spatial and temporal distributions of total phosphorus (TP) in the sediments of the Shuangtai estuary wetland during the period of reed growth, eight sampling sites were established within the wetland, approximately 11 to 24 km from Liaohe River. These sites were sampled once a month at multiple sediment depth intervals between April and October in 2018 and 2019, periods of time that corresponded with the reed growth period. An alkali fusion method was used to determine TP in the sediment samples. The results show that sediment TP content of wetland sediments ranged from 0.001 to 0.781 mg/kg, and decreases from southwest to northeast with the increase in sediment depth. The TP content reaches the maximum corresponding to the fastest growth stage of the reeds (June and July), while the minimum occurs in October (i.e., the maturity stage of reeds). The variation law of TP in cross-sectional sediment in the wetland is that the deeper the sediments are, the lower the content; its maximum content occurs in surface soil. The TP content of each site tends to be stable with increasing depth and has a regularly dynamic seasonal variation with the growth of reeds.

Published: November 2022

Marine habitats provide various benefits to the environment and humans. In this regard, an accurate marine habitat map is an important component of effective marine management. Newfoundland’s coastal area is covered by different marine habitats, which should be correctly mapped using advanced technologies, such as remote sensing methods. In this study, bathymetric Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data were applied to accurately discriminate different habitat types in Bonne Bay, Newfoundland. To this end, the LiDAR intensity image was employed along with an object-based Random Forest (RF) algorithm. Two types of habitat classifications were produced: a two-class map (i.e., Vegetation and Non-Vegetation) and a five-class map (i.e., Eelgrass, Macroalgae, Rockweed, Fine Sediment, and Gravel/Cobble). It was observed that the accuracies of the produced habitat maps were reasonable considering the existing challenges, such as the error of the LiDAR data and lacking enough in situ samples for some of the classes such as macroalgae. The overall classification accuracies for the two-class and five-class maps were 87% and 80%, respectively, indicating the high capability of the developed machine learning model for future marine habitat mapping studies. The results also showed that Eelgrass, Fine Sediment, Gravel/Cobble, Macroalgae, and Rockweed cover 22.4% (3.66 km2), 51.4% (8.39 km2), 13.5% (2.21 km2), 6.9% (1.12 km2), and 5.8% (0.95 km2) of the study area, respectively.

Considerando as estratégias carnavalescas da Mulher Preta e Gorda: novos caminhos
Authors: Romariz Letícia
Published: November 2022

Este artigo visa analisar o poema “Winter Thoughts” da autora caribenha Grace Nichols, contido no livro The Fat Black Woman’s Poems (1984). Partindo da ideia de que, dentro do livro, a mulher preta e gorda vive em um mundo de carnaval (BAKHTIN, 1984), este artigo discute as estratégias carnavalescas que ela usa para resistir e questionar a violência e exclusão do mundo. Relacionando seu corpo com o erótico, natureza e conhecimento, a mulher preta e gorda é capaz de criar novos e melhores conceitos de si mesma e do mundo.
Jane Austen e Virginia Woolf: Anjo do Lar ou Judith Shakespeare?
Authors: Balbino Galeno Maria do Carmo , Queiroz Juliana Maia de
Published: November 2022

Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar a escrita literária de Jane Austen e Virginia Woolf, sob uma perspectiva filosófico-feminista-psicanalítica visando clarear o questionamento: o que é a escrita feminina? Há verdadeiramente alguma diferença ou característica identificável de quando um texto é escrito por um homem ou por uma mulher? Para nortear esta análise, dialogar-se-á com Cixous, Beauvoir, Herrero, Kehl, dentre outros teóricos da filosofia feminista e da psicanálise.
laços literários e políticos que unem Virginia Woolf e Jane Austen na contestação da sociedade patriarcal
Authors: Pimenta Attie Juliana , Pivato Biajoli Maria Clara
Published: November 2022

Este artigo propõe um diálogo entre diferentes obras de Jane Austen e Virginia Woolf para debater a questão da tradição literária feminina e seu posterior apagamento pela crítica, e também o desenvolvimento de uma escrita única por Austen que a aproxima de Woolf. Além disso, questiona a visão tradicional que entende as duas autoras como apolíticas, mostrando que ambas entrelaçam situações cotidianas com posicionamentos sobre o contexto histórico-político em que viviam, em especial sobre a guerra e o papel da mulher na sociedade.
Uso da fotografia como ferramenta para a educação ambiental na escola
Authors:   , Roberti Heverton Marques
Published: November 2022

As práticas de educação ambiental possuem um papel relevante na escola, colocandose como uma estratégia que garanta uma relação sustentável entre a sociedade e o ambiente. Podemos considerar que as escolas não podem promover uma educação de qualidade sozinhas, podendo utilizar-se tanto de recursos tecnológicos quanto de espaços de educação não-formal disponíveis na comunidade. O presente trabalho tem como objetivo formular um instrumento didático-pedagógico que possibilite o ensino da educação ambiental valorizando o contexto social e cotidiano dos alunos, a partir da utilização das fotografias em ambientes que sofreram com ações humanas. O presente trabalho foi desenvolvido na Escola Estadual Doutor João Pinto, localizada no município de Tocantins-MG, na qual participaram as turmas de terceiro ano do ensino médio. Alunos de duas das turmas foram os sujeitos para o desenvolvimento do presente estudo, com a participação de um total de 50 alunos. A pesquisa e elaboração da sequência didática foi dividida em quatro etapas, descritas a seguir: i) sensibilização ao tema (com discentes dos grupos controle e sequência didática); ii) aula expositiva (para o grupo controle) e aula de campo (para o grupo sequência didática); iii) organização dos dados obtidos (grupo sequência didática); e iv) organização da exposição fotográfica (grupo sequência didática). O trabalho desenvolvido junto aos alunos permitiu aos educandos se envolverem de forma mais ativa no processo de construção do seu próprio conhecimento. Esta sequência didática com a temática voltada a Educação Ambiental trouxe consigo componentes curriculares previstos na Base Nacional Comum Curricular. As atividades desenvolvidas dentro da sequência didática proporcionaram a inclusão dos estudantes em um ciclo investigativo. A sequência didática desenvolvida possui como estratégia de ensino às aulas de campo, que por sua vez apresenta um caráter tanto ‘motivador’ quanto ‘investigativo’. Os registros fotográficos feitos pelos alunos foram usados para a produção de um catálogo fotográfico e na confecção de banner com a finalidade de serem peças fundamentais na disseminação do conhecimento para a comunidade em uma exposição fotográfica. O modelo de ensino proposto demonstrou-se eficaz no processo de aprendizagem, trazendo atividades que apresentaram procedimentos que ofereceram aos alunos a oportunidade de ampliarem o conhecimento e consolidar a relação teoria e prática.
A transcendência como relação dialética no pensamento de Martin Buber
Authors:   , Tavares Cintia Castro Lopes
Published: November 2022

O presente trabalho tem por objetivo investigar dialeticamente o tema da transcendência em Martin Buber a partir da análise da relação do homem, Eu com o outro, Tu. O homem, ser relacional por essência, tem sua existência atrelada à atitude estabelecida diante do mundo no modo Eu-Tu, cuja antítese é a relação Eu-Isso. A dissertação em questão versará sobre o propósito de Buber em seu “opus summum” Eu e Tu: demonstrar a possibilidade da transcendência tanto no âmbito da fundamentação ôntica quanto no do conhecimento, através de uma afirmação, Eu-Tu, de uma negação, Eu-Isso, e de uma conclusão, Eu-Tu absoluto, fechando o círculo dialético, tomado como método em questão.
(Des)fazendo história na internet: visões acerca da ditadura militar brasileira em canais da “nova direita” no YouTube (2013-2018)
Authors:   , Couto Neto Geraldo Homero do
Published: November 2022

Esta dissertação tem como objetivo analisar vídeos de grandes canais da nova direita brasileira no YouTube que abarcam o tema da ditadura militar brasileira, bem como seus respectivos comentários. Trabalharemos com o recorte temporal de junho de 2013 até o ano de 2018, pelo fato de as manifestações de junho terem criado um terreno propício para a difusão de ideias “liberais na economia e conservadoras nos costumes” da nova direita, o que coincide, justamente, com o seu aparecimento mais ativo na esfera pública e digital. A partir disso, buscaremos entender como esses sujeitos interpretam, discutem e compartilham o passado, assim como identificar as inconsistências dos conteúdos defendidos, para, então, problematizar suas visões revisionistas e negacionistas sobre a ditadura, em contraposição ao que há de consolidado na historiografia brasileira sobre o tema. Tal estudo nos possibilita uma reflexão acerca do papel do historiador frente às novas mídias, tendo em vista o seu grande poder de alcance de público, e aos desafios proporcionados pelas disputas ocorridas esfera pública em torno das memórias da ditadura militar brasileira.
Verificação da existência de diferença de fluxos pulpares entre dentes vitais anteriores e seus homólogos da arcada oposta em um mesmo indivíduo com o auxilio do fluxômetro laser doppler
Authors:   , Lula Matheus Felipe Rodrigues
Published: November 2022

Testes de vitalidade necessitam avaliar o suprimento sanguíneo da polpa dentaria. O Fluxômetro Laser Doppler (FLD) é um dispositivo capaz de avaliar o fluxo sanguíneo da polpa dental, por meio de raio infravermelho (780-820 nm) ou vermelho (632,8 nm) que é direcionado para o tecido por fibras óticas. O objetivo do presente estudo foi verificar a existência de diferença de fluxos pulpares entre dentes vitais anteriores e seus homólogos da arcada oposta em um mesmo indivíduo com o auxilio do fluxômetro laser doppler. Nesse estudo in vivo, os dentes selecionados foram restringidos aos anteriores superiores e seu homologo do quadrante oposto para realizar a comparação do fluxo no mesmo indivíduo. Para realização deste experimento, utilizou-se o Fluxômetro Laser Doppler da fabricante Moor Instruments com a banda Doppler do fluxômetro fixada em 3,1kHz, 780nm. A sonda utilizada foi a de modelo MP13 (Moor Instruments Ltd., U.K.). Foi estabelecido como critério de analise teste T pareado nos casos de comparação entre o mesmo dente do lado direito e seu contraposto esquerdo; e o teste T independente em casos de comparação entre diferentes grupos, por exemplo entre canino e lateral. A fim de se correlacionar os dados utilizou-se o coeficiente de correlação de Pearson. O nível de significância adotado foi de 0,05. Não houve diferença significativa entre lado direito e lado esquerdo no geral (p=0,47); Não houve diferença significativa na comparação dos lados direito e esquerdo entre caninos, laterais e centrais (p=0,78 , p=0,21 , p=0,93 , respectivamente); Correlacionando lados direito e o contraposto esquerdo de caninos, laterais e centrais não houve coeficientes de correlação significantes: 79%, 27% e 32% respectivamente. No entanto na comparação entre canino com central no lado esquerdo do grupo feminino, o valor de p=7% foi obtido, próximo da significância de 5%. Pode-se concluir que a variação do fluxo sanguíneo pulpar é inexistente entre dentes vitais anteriores e seus homólogos da arcada oposta.
Metáforas avaliativas na série de reportagens vaza jato: o contra-ataque com a arma do outro na guerra discursiva
Authors:   , Andrade Márcia de Paula
Published: November 2022

Sob a ótica da Linguística Cognitiva, sumarizada em Geeraerts e Cuyckens (2007), este trabalho investiga processos de base figurativa, especialmente a metáfora, em contexto de matérias jornalísticas contemporâneas do Português Brasileiro. Além do texto seminal acerca da Teoria da Metáfora Conceptual, de Lakoff e Johnson ([1980] 2002), e da noção de fictividade, de Talmy ([2000] 2019), o pressuposto teórico mais relevante diz respeito ao entendimento de Deignan (2010) acerca de metáforas avaliativas, segundo o qual existem quatro mecanismos para a metáfora realizar uma avaliação: (i) implicações geradas; (ii) cenários metafóricos evocados; (iii) domínios-fonte escolhidos; (iv) conotações exploradas. Metodologicamente, rastrearam-se ocorrências de metáforas nos dois textos iniciais da série de reportagens Vaza Jato, publicada pelo The Intercept Brasil, para compor uma análise de cunho qualitativo-interpretativo (BRYMAN, 1996; DENZIN e LINCOLN, 2006). Os resultados apontam para a conclusão de que o discurso jornalístico se aproveita criticamente das metáforas avaliativas, de seus respectivos esquemas imagéticos e de suas implicações, recorrendo parcialmente aos mesmos recursos figurativos evocados pelas fontes de informação, aspectos os quais emergem das mensagens vazadas, suscitando a perspectiva avaliativa dos jornalistas sobre esses dados. Além disso, a escolha dos domínios-fonte se mostrou substancial para a dimensão avaliativa das metáforas, no contexto enunciativo das reportagens analisadas. Outro aspecto de destaque é a observação de que o discurso jornalístico se apropria de metáforas avaliativas das fontes de informação para usá-las argumentativamente contra essas próprias fontes. Por fim, em termos de composição textual, as referidas reportagens fazem uso dos mesmos mecanismos figurativos e avaliativos para estabelecer coesão e coerência por meio de metáfora.
Cartografia de histórias e memórias midiatizadas: gramáticas interacionais produzidas sobre o genocídio cambojano
Authors:   , Queiroz Hugo Magalhães
Published: November 2022

Este trabalho busca navegar por dispositivos interacionais midiatizados da história e das memórias do genocídio cambojano, perpetrado pelo Khmer Vermelho de 1975 a 1979. O desenho de um mapa memorial a partir de uma lente estética permite que as gramáticas disponibilizadas na atualidade, presentes no espaço público, saltem a fim de criar uma experiência pública contemporânea sobre a tragédia. Os sentidos que são construídos e aparecem em disputa dizem da criação de futuros para pessoas marcadas pela atrocidade e da possibilidade de comunicação da experiência e das dimensões do genocídio para uma pessoa de fora da cultura e da história cambojanas.
