Authors: Monteiro Érica das Dores , Oliveira Marcella Antunes Sousa Luiz de
Published: June 2024

Considerando a crescente relevância social do acolhimento familiar e a necessidade de compreender os desafios enfrentados pelas famílias acolhedoras, este estudo tem como objetivo geral analisar tais desafios e as estratégias de superação adotadas por essas famílias. Enquanto os objetivos específicos são: identificar os principais obstáculos vivenciados pelas famílias acolhedoras ao estabelecerem e manterem vínculos afetivos com as crianças acolhidas e compreender as estratégias utilizadas pelas famílias acolhedoras para superar os desafios identificados. Para tanto, realizou-se uma revisão bibliográfica exploratória de caráter qualitativo, utilizando como base artigos publicados nos últimos anos sobre acolhimento familiar e vulnerabilidade infantil. A pesquisa foi conduzida nas bases de dados da Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS), Scientific Electronic Library Online (Scielo) e Portal de periódicos da Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES), utilizando descritores como acolhimento familiar, famílias acolhedoras e crianças em situação de vulnerabilidade. A pesquisa justifica-se pois o acolhimento familiar é uma alternativa importante para crianças e adolescentes que, por diferentes motivos, não podem viver com suas famílias de origem. No entanto, as famílias acolhedoras enfrentam diversos desafios durante esse processo, que podem impactá-las tanto quanto as crianças e adolescentes acolhidos. As hipóteses são: que a falta de suporte e acompanhamento adequado por parte das instituições responsáveis pelo acolhimento pode ser um dos principais desafios enfrentados pelas famílias acolhedoras.

This research studies the optimal parameters for brazing 316L stainless steel using AgCuZn as filler metal under an argon gas atmosphere. The brazing parameters included temperature, brazing time, and argon gas flow rate. The study employed Box-Behnken design for experimental design and desirability function as the optimization tool. Mechanical properties study included the measurements of shear force, microhardness, microstructure, and fracture of brazing joints through a scanning electron microscope (SEM) as well as the chemical composition using an energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS). As a result, the temperature and the brazing time significantly affected the shear force of the brazed joint at a 95 percent confidence interval. The optimal condition of the study was 800°C of temperature and a 20-minutes brazing time which caused the maximum shear force at 5,909.1 N. The brazing joint strength was increased when the temperature and time of brazing were increased and reached the optimal point. Microstructure showed a formation of an Ag-rich phase, a Cu-rich equiaxed dendrite phase, and a eutectic Ag-rich phase, which completely combined as the network structure and evenly small fine grains. Moreover, the shear force of the brazed joint was decreased when the temperature and time of brazing exceeded the optimal point due to the grain growth of the interface layer.

This study presents an analysis of stability improvement methods for the transition zone between bridge structures and embankments in railway systems using the Finite Element Method (FEM) model. The study aims to provide guidelines for designing such transition zones. The three methods investigated are recommended by the International Union of Railways (UIC) standard 719R: 1. Société Nationale des Chemins de fer Français method (SNCF), 2. Magyar Államvasutak method (MAV), and 3. Deutsche Bahn method (DB). Initially, the interaction between the rail and bridge models was calibrated using the E1-3 case from the UIC 774-3, which yielded results close to the reference values. Additionally, it was found that analyzing the sequence of applied loads provides better results than directly combining the responses from each load type. Subsequently, the study examined the stability improvement of the transition zones using the rail properties from the UIC 54 and the load standards from U20, which are applicable in Thailand. The analysis revealed that all three methods effectively reduced settlement in the transition zone, with the DB method achieving the highest reduction at 36.18%, and the SNCF and MAV methods achieving an equal reduction of 32.89%. However, considering both settlement reduction and construction techniques, the SNCF method is recommended as the most suitable approach for the design and construction to improve the stability of transition zones.
Analysis And Visualization Of The Perturbations Imposed On The Liquid Film By Crown Sheet Collapse Or Closure
Authors: Ribeiro D. , Panão M. R. O. , Barata J. , Silva A. R. R.
Published: June 2024

Bubble encapsulation is a phenomenon that results from droplet impact on a liquid film for particular impact conditions. After splashing, the crown liquid sheet starts to bend inwards, and eventually, the jets at the top of the crown merge and form a perfect empty bubble. This bubble bursts due to the impingement of a secondary droplet that impacts the spherical dome or the thin dome film reaches its critical thickness. A few authors observed this phenomenon but barely studied it. Thus, this work focuses on understanding its dynamics and formation mechanisms. An experimental imaging study allows observing the phenomenon from two perspectives: 1) the common lateral perspective; 2) and a bottom perspective. The bottom shadowgraphs show the capillary waves and the perturbations imposed by the drop impact on the steady liquid film. Previous works observed that bubble encapsulation systematically occurs (p = 1) for 6263 < ReD < 8358, 4.776 < Oh_f×10^3 < 9.918, 0.4 ≤ δ=hf/D0 ≤ 1, and stochastically (p < 1) beyond the upper limits. One of the goals is to relate this phenomenon with any existent correlation in the literature. Departing from the Vander Wal et al. (2006) correlation for the spreading/splashing transition boundary but rearranging it to include the Ohnesorge number relating viscous forces with inertia and surface tension, this work develops a new criterion for the onset of bubble encapsulation. It uses drop characteristics in the Reynolds number to express the initial impact conditions and the liquid film’s characteristics in the Ohnesorge number because most of the crown material comes from the liquid film, as reported in the literature. The new criterion for the onset of bubble encapsulation is a ∊ [1.022, 1.142] = ln(34.5/ReD)/ln(Oh_f). Bubble encapsulation events observed by other authors are within the region where the probability of occurrence is p < 0.5. However, despite being outside the validation range of the correlation, the values are close to the boundaries. There is scarce information about bubble encapsulation, but some works focus on the cavity underneath the bubble. We observed the cavity and concluded that the cavity shape is independent of the bubble encapsulation phenomenon. Finally, using the bottom shadowgraphs, the crown closure time measured for a specific range of impact conditions shows a sudden decrease between 0.5 < δ < 0.6. The reason is the subject of future work.

Published: June 2024

The systematic manipulation of components of multimodal particle solutions is a key for the design of modern industrial products and pharmaceuticals with highly customized properties. In order to optimize innovative particle separation devices on the micron scale, a particle size recognition with simultaneous volumetric position determination is essential. In this study, the astigmatism particle tracking velocimetry (APTV) is extended by two deterministic approaches and a deep neural network (DNN) to include size classification of particles of multimodal size distribution. Without any adaptation of the existing measurement setup, a reliable classification of bimodal particle solutions in the size range of 1.14 µm to 5.03 µm is demonstrated with a precision of up to 99.8 %. Concurrently, the high detection rate of the particles is quantified by a recall of 97.6 %. Once various outlier criteria are optimized based on the discrimination of images of bimodal particle mixtures, the application to multimodal classification is performed. The fluorescent polystyrene particles are distinguished into four classes with a precision of up to 99.3 %, while a recall of 91.7 % is maintained. The obtained results demonstrate the capability of a reliable particle size recognition using a standard APTV setup for microfluidics. The introduced algorithms allow a low-cost extension of APTV to particle solutions with multimodal size distribution, which does not require the use of different fluorescent dyes for each particle species. Furthermore, the training of the DNN is based on flow measurements, which can be integrated into the measurement procedure with reasonable effort and do not require rather time consuming measurements of sedimented particles as usual.

Published: June 2024

The workpiece cooling by metalworking fluids, which has a significant influence on the workpiece surface layer quality, is not fully understood for industrial grinding processes. This necessitates a significant effort in determining optimal cooling conditions empirically, raising part manufacturing costs. As a solution, a measurement method for the metalworking fluid flow field near the grinding wheel is desired to close the knowledge gap. However, the fluctuating curved surfaces of the coolant cause unpredictable light deflections and reflections, making optical flow measurements difficult. To evaluate the effect of light deflections on the coolant flow measurements, particle image velocimetry is applied in combination with background-oriented schlieren and a ray-tracing approach. Here we study coolant flow measurements in a grinding machine for in-process supply conditions, at first without a working piece and with a focus on the measurability and reliability of the coolant flow from the nozzle exit to the interaction with the rotating grinding wheel. As a result, for the nozzle flow, a systematic measurement deviation of up to 2 % is identified and after the correction, a plausible flow behaviour is obtained. Furthermore, the in-situ measurements of the coolant flow in interaction with the grinding wheel reveal a detailed description of the fluid-workpiece interaction.

Renal diseases pose a significant burden of morbidity and mortality, particularly among People Living with HIV (PLHIV). The risks are further compounded by drug-induced renal toxicity, and the growing burden of hypertension, diabetes, and Hepatitis C infections. This study assessed the magnitude and factors associated with renal dysfunction among PLHIV attending clinics in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. A hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted between January and March 2022 among 331 PLHIV recruited through a multistage sampling. Renal disease was determined through urine analysis and clinical, demographic, and disease-specific data were collected using a structured questionnaire. The analysis, performed in SPSS version 25, involved descriptive analysis, univariate, and multivariable logistic regression to determine the magnitude and predictors of renal dysfunction among PLHIV. Renal dysfunction was observed in 37 (11.1%) participants. Patients with advanced age were 3.89 times more likely to have renal dysfunction (95% CI: 1.56 – 9.72, p = 0.004) compared to lower age groups. No statistically significant association was found between renal dysfunction and sex, duration from diagnosis of HIV and on ART, ART-based regimen, HIV viral load, hypertension, or diabetes mellitus. More than one in ten PLHIV in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, presented with signs of renal dysfunctions, which was more significant among patients aged 55 and older. Routine screening for renal diseases among PLHIV, especially for patients with advanced age is essential to prevent and control for progression to renal failure.

Published: June 2024

Executive function (EF), encompassing high-order cognitive processes essential for goal-directed behavior, is often impaired in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). This review addresses the problem of limited understanding regarding the distinction between “cool” and “hot” EF, their respective manifestations, and developmental trajectories in ASD. While cool EF in ASD has been widely investigated, the impairments and development of hot EF are less explored despite potentially also playing a role in ASD's socio-cognitive challenges. The purpose of this narrative review is to synthesize existing literature on hot EF and its development in ASD, particularly in relation to cool EF. Our approach involves a comprehensive examination of current studies to identify gaps and propose directions for future research. The review highlights the scarcity of studies on hot EF in ASD and concludes that targeted interventions should address both cool and hot EF deficits. Future research directions include longitudinal studies, neural investigations, and culturally diverse samples to further elucidate the role of hot EF in ASD. Understanding these distinctions can refine intervention strategies, ultimately enhancing support for individuals with ASD.

Published: June 2024

In Morocco, there are many different types of desert truffles, including Terfezia, Tirmania, Delastria, Picoa, and Tuber. The Maamora Forest, Doukkala-Abda Sahel, northeast of Morocco, and the Moroccan Sahara are the four truffle regions where the geographical distribution of these ascomycetes has been noted most frequently. In addition to being a great source of protein, amino acids, carbon hydrates, and fiber, desert truffles are also regarded as a valuable source of antibiotic alternatives for pathogenic bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics. Due to the widespread appreciation of truffles, we could use these resources to develop local populations, especially in truffle-producing regions. The biodiversity of desert truffles in Morocco and other Maghreb countries is one of the characteristics of truffles that are briefly discussed in this paper review. Ecology, biology, geographical spread, and final considerations include the mycorrhizal association of truffles, biochemistry, and physiology.

The use of renewable feedstocks and the variability of lignocellulosic feedstocks generating fermentable sugars also offer the advantages of the most abundant, sustainable and competitive non-food biomass. The aim of this study is to valorize the oilcake obtained from non-conventional Congolese Afzelia bella oilseeds, after extraction of the oil used in biodiesel production. The conversion of A. bella oilseeds cake into ethanol was carried out using the two methods of pretreatment (with the synthesized ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methyl imidazolium chloride and dilute sulfuric acid), followed by hydrolysis with dilute sulfuric acid and fermentation by Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The lignocellulosic composition of the sample was 47.98% cellulose, 28.15% hemicellulose and 22.3% lignin. Pretreatment with 1-butyl-3-methyl-imidazolium chloride (ionic liquid) showed an increase in cellulose content of around 4.25% and hemicellulose content of around 7.7%, with simultaneous delignification of 12.25%. In contrast, with dilute sulfuric acid, the lignin and cellulose content of the sample fell to 3.88% and 1.88% respectively. Hemicellulose content, on the other hand, increased by only 3.58%. After dilute acid hydrolysis (5% H2SO4), the values for total reducing sugar, glucose and xylose were 66.06±1.34 mg.g-1; 36.25 ± 1.2 mg.g-1 and 29.71 ± 0.6 mg.g-1 respectively. The percentage conversion of sugars was 55.16 ± 0.5% for cellulose to glucose and 53.76 ± 0.75% for hemicellulose to xylose. The hydrolyzed product of the complex polysaccharide was then converted to ethanol using commercial yeast. Results showed an ethanol yield of around 10.3%, and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy results confirmed bioethanol production. A. bella oilseeds cakes are therefore a potential source for ethanol production.

Do “Mito da Caverna”, de Platão, ao cancelamento nas redes sociais
Authors: Freire Júnior Americo Bedê , Albuquerque Alessandra Lignani de Miranda Starling e
Published: June 2024

O Mito da Caverna é uma alegoria apresentada pelo filósofo grego Platão em sua obra "A República" (Livro VII). Esta alegoria é utilizada para ilustrar a diferença entre o mundo sensível (das aparências) e o mundo inteligível (das ideias), bem como o processo de aquisição do conhecimento e a dificuldade de alcançar a verdade. A alegoria continua relevante hoje em dia, incentivando uma reflexão sobre como a educação, o preconceito e a resistência à mudança influenciam nossa compreensão do mundo. O trabalho aborda a transição do conceito filosófico do "Mito da Caverna", de Platão, para a contemporânea prática de cancelamento nas redes sociais. O objetivo geral é analisar como a alegoria platônica pode ser relacionada à dinâmica de exclusão e julgamento nas plataformas digitais. Os objetivos específicos são: 1) identificar os elementos do "Mito da Caverna" que podem ser aplicados ao comportamento online, 2) explorar a natureza do cancelamento nas redes sociais, e 3) discutir as implicações sociais e psicológicas dessa prática. O problema de pesquisa se configura na pergunta: "Como a alegoria do 'Mito da Caverna' pode ser utilizada para compreender o fenômeno do cancelamento nas redes sociais?" A metodologia empregada foi a pesquisa bibliográfica, revisando e correlacionando literatura filosófica e sociológica. Os resultados indicam que há paralelos significativos entre a percepção distorcida da realidade descrita por Platão e a forma como as redes sociais moldam e influenciam as opiniões públicas, frequentemente levando a julgamentos precipitados e à exclusão social. A conclusão sugere que a compreensão dessas dinâmicas pode promover um uso mais consciente e crítico das redes sociais.
Evaluation of Commercial Sex Pheromone Lures for Fall Armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith) Monitoring in Bhutan
Authors: Zangpo Tshelthrim
Published: June 2024

The fall armyworm has rapidly spread to 11 Dzongkhags in Bhutan by September 2023 since its first detection in 2019. This concerning spread highlights the critical need for comprehensive monitoring strategies. However, there is still a notable gap in understanding the seasonal behavior of fall armyworm in Bhutan, including its response to commercially available sex pheromone lures. Hence, the current study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of seven commercially available sex pheromone lures (SPFR2111, SPFR2112, SPFR2113, SPFR2114, SPFR2115, PCI and Ecotech) in monitoring fall armyworm in maize fields in Sarpang, Punakha and Chukha Dzongkhags in 2023. The study employed a descriptive observational approach to monitor fall armyworm moth populations in maize fields. Phero T-traps (funnel traps) with specific lures were placed fifty meters apart in maize fields at a density of five traps per acre and positioned approximately 1.5 meters above ground level. The number of fall armyworm moths and non- target species captured by seven lures differed across various locations. Overall, SFPR2114, PCI, and Ecotech lures were more effective in trapping fall armyworm moths based on mean ranks. The lure SPFR2113 and SPFR2112 captured the lowest number of non-target species, while PCI captured the highest number. The peak of fall armyworm moth capture was in April in all the monitoring locations, signifying the need for timely monitoring and scouting during this vulnerable crop growth stages. The study’s findings suggest the use of SPFR2114, SPFR2113, SPFR2112 and Ecotech lures for monitoring fall armyworm populations in Bhutan, particularly during the crucial period of April when there is a notable surge in moth captures for effective fall armyworm monitoring.
Evaluation of the Off-season Production of Bulb Onion (Allium cepa L.) in Mongar

Published: June 2024

Bulb onion is one of the important commercial crops cultivated by the farmers in all the districts, and onion has been identified as one of the mandatory vegetable crops in Bhutan. The crop requires about five to six-month growing period from sowing till harvest. The harvest season coincides with the onset of the monsoon season and post-harvest losses due to high humidity and poor post-harvest management are high. With steady demand for the crop throughout the year and low domestic production, the current production cannot meet the market demand. Hence, substantial quantities of bulb onion are imported. Promotion of off-season bulb onion production with the harvest season during the dry season could minimize post-harvest losses and make it available in the market all year round. The objective of this experiment was to evaluate two bulb onion varieties, namely Pune Red and Pink onion 1358 for off-season production. The experiment was conducted at Lingmethang (600 masl) and Wengkhar (1650 masl) in the 2022 cropping season in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications and two treatments. The results indicate a significant difference (P < 0.05) in bulb height, weight, plant height, and neck diameter but no significant difference in bulb width. The maximum bulb weight 306.7 g was recorded at the Lingmethang station in the Pink 1358 variety. The yield obtained was 18.68 MT/acre for Pink 1358, 19.20 MT/acre for Pune Red at Lingmethang station, and 13.35 MT/acre for Pink 1358, 13.08 MT/acre for Pune Red at Wengkhar station. However, there was no significant difference (P >0.05) in yield in both stations. This study found that bulb onion production is feasible between August to March months in the mid-elevations upto 1650 masl. However, the best location for bulb onion production would be in the lower elevation where the yields are higher compared to the mid-elevation.

The study of minor faults carried out in the valley of the Belaya River made it possible to establish the tectodynamic conditions for the formation of the Pshekha-Adler fault zone of the Greater Caucasus. In this zone, the presence of strike-slip displacements of different scales and the predominance of the situation of horizontal displacement are shown. Using the method of cataclastic analysis, differences in the parameters of the stress-and-strain state in different tectonic complexes and structures of the region have been established. The revealed structural pattern of meridional and northeastern compression determine the regional dextral strike-slip fault and extensional fault nature of the meridional Pshekha-Adler fault zone with the development of sinistral strike-slip faults and extensional faults of the northeastern strike inside the deformation zone.
