De la campagne à la ville : évolution de l’artisanat des matières dures animales au Moyen Âge dans la France du Nord d’après les données archéologiques
Authors: Chaoui-Derieux Dorothée , Goret Jean-François
Published: February 2019

L’évolution de l’artisanat des matières dures animales au Moyen Âge est encore largement méconnue, malgré la multiplication des fouilles préventives. La mise au jour fréquente de petits lots d’objets en os ou en bois de cervidé ne suffit pas à distinguer entre fabrication domestique et artisanat spécialisé itinérant, activité saisonnière et passe-temps, importation ou production locale… À partir de données provenant de la moitié nord de la France, une synthèse sera proposée sur cette question en mettant en lumière la mutation profonde liée à la naissance des corporations de métiers au xiiie siècle.

Une collection de modèles réduits d’artillerie au musée de l’Armée et le monde de l’invention en France au xviiie siècle
Authors: Brahami Ygor
Published: February 2019

Se situant à la croisée de l’histoire des techniques et de l’histoire militaire, l’article s’intéresse à une collection de modèles réduits d’invention d’artillerie du musée de l’Armée. Les modèles réduits ont longtemps été négligés par les historiens bien qu’ils soient une source apportant beaucoup d’informations. La réflexion est portée sur l’utilité du modèle réduit dans le processus de valorisation d’une invention par l’inventeur et sur la raison de son rassemblement par les institutions militaires et muséales.
Guerre future ou passé qui ne passe pas ? Quand L’An 330 (Maurice Spronck, 1894) remet les compteurs révolutionnaires à zéro : Les socialistes au pouvoir (Hippolyte Verly, 1898) ou Tintin au pays des soviets
Authors: Lévêque Laure
Published: February 2019

Le gros demi-siècle qui précède la Grande Guerre voit fleurir toute une production de textes d’anticipation à plus ou moins grande portée qui fantasment des conflits ravageurs, internes et/ou externes, qui vont jusqu’à déchaîner l’apocalypse dans une France alors enfoncée dans la crise. Crise militaire avec l’humiliante défaite de 1870 qui révèle au grand jour le retard, tactique et matériel, de l’armée française, posant la question de l’indépendance nationale. Crise politique avec la récurrence d’attentats anarchistes particulièrement sanglants. Crise sociale avec la paupérisation des classes populaires, séduites par le socialisme, structuré en Internationale à compter de 1864. Cette situation explosive, où d’aucuns puisent des raisons d’espérer dans l’avènement du Grand Soir quand d’autres flétrissent la chienlit démocratique, réactive le rapport à l’héritage révolutionnaire et à ses leçons, ce dont témoignent contradictoirement les fictions du temps.
Tempestad en los Andes de Luis E. Valcárcel o el despertar del alma inca
Authors: López Pierre
Published: February 2019

En 1927, Luis E. Valcárcel publica la obra Tempestad en los Andes, obra indigenista con una fuerte dimensión apologética y profética a veces amenazante. El autor aboga por un nuevo orden que surgirá con el despertar del indígena y actúa como un predicador que hace de su Andinismo un evangelio ; pero un evangelio que fue necesario, según él, para despertar las conciencias en un contexto político marcado por los discursos revolucionarios de izquierda.
Louis Bertrand, l’Orient et le militarisme
Authors: Bkhairia Hassen
Published: February 2019

Cette étude s’intéresse à une figure de proue du nationalisme français de l’entre-deux-guerres, Louis Bertrand, romancier et essayiste qui, par son radicalisme, rappelle Maurice Barrès et Charles Maurras. Le propos est de mettre l’accent sur ses écrits militaristes – Devant l’islam, Le Sens de l’ennemi, Le Mirage oriental – qui rejettent l’idée de « fraternité universelle » et, au nom de la Nation, appellent à « se rebarbariser » pour pouvoir « [s’adapter] aux conditions du monde moderne, qui est, en grande partie, un monde barbare ». Une conception colonialiste associant l’altérité à une menace permanente qui suppose d’éclaircir la vision bertrandienne de l’orientalisme.
Conspiración, generaciones y cuerpo. Miradas de la guerra en la literatura argentina del siglo XX
Authors: Lombardo Martín
Published: February 2019

A partir de la lectura de Martín Kohan sobre las construcciones de los relatos bélicos en la historia argentina, el presente artículo estudia las ficciones argentinas del siglo XX que imaginan guerras futuras. Se establece una diferencia entre los textos ficcionales de la primera mitad del siglo XX en donde la guerra aparece más vinculada a una construcción discursiva y los textos surgidos a partir de los años sesenta en donde se subraya la función del cuerpo, de las armas y de la productividad en las guerras.

Authors: Lara Mario A. , Carvajal Miguel A. , Arteaga Oscar , Terán Héctor C. , Navas Richard R. , Torres Guido R. , Espín-Lagos Segundo Manuel
Published: February 2019

This experimental investigation evaluates the adherence of metal chromium plating on SAE-1026 cold-formed carbon steel surfaces for bus rims, the test-pieces were prepared in compliance with the ASTM-B456 standard regarding their size and surface. The study involves varying the parameters of the coating process, such as time, temperature and voltage, with the selection of critical tests that influence the adhesion of chromium plating such as: adhesion test where the strength with which the metallic coating is bonded to another surface was obtained based on ASTM D 3359-09, Vicker hardness test with the resistance that the material exhibits against permanent deformation established by ASTM B578-87, thickness test in the coating of metal substrates applying ASTM B456 and corrosion test by subjecting the surface to acetic salt mist (AASS) under strict preparation, cleaning and evaluation of ASTM G46-94. The optimal results discovered are 60 min. 40 °C and 7V in the nickel bath and 2min. 15 °C and 6V in chrome. In order to improve the results obtained from the experiments, the proposal is to cover with a layer of alkaline copper coating, reducing the anti-corrosion and adhesion properties.
Geometric Modeling and Manufacturing Method for a few Teeth Involute Gear with Bilateral Modification
Authors: Sun Qiang , Sun Yue Hai , Ge Xiao Lin
Published: February 2019

Aiming at the issue of undercutting and machining difficulties caused by gear with a few teeth, the geometric modeling method and processing method of bi-directional displacement less tooth number were studied. Based on the calculation formula of the involute cylindrical gear and the characteristics of the bi-directional gear, the calculation formula of the diameter of the variable tooth top circle is derived, and the modeling of the gear pair with bi-directional variable bit number is carried out. The research shows that the bidirectional displacement can solve the root cutting problem well and improve the transmission quality. In view of the problem that machining efficiency is not high at present, a method of machining with tangent and radial gear is proposed, and the same gear cutter is used to process different cutting and radial gears, and the feasibility of the above method is verified by the processing test. The research work laid a foundation for further promotion and application of small tooth number gear transmission.
Adsorption and Photocatalytic Kinetic of Wastewater Treatment by Photocatalyst - Alginate/Polyvinyl Alcohol Composite Beads
Authors: Sangjan Suntree , Ponsanti Khanittha
Published: February 2019

Photocatalyst composite beads were applied as adsorbent substances in the waste water treatment process. The beads were synthesised using different photocatalyst types in sodium alginate-polyvinyl alcohol matrix (SA-PVA) as commercial ZnO (ZnO/SA-PVA), synthesised ZnO (ZnO(syn)/SA-PVA), and synthesised ZnO-graphene oxide (ZnO(syn)-GO/SA-PVA). The morphology and photocatalytic activity of the composite beads were studied utilising X-ray diffractometry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and UV-vis spectroscopy. Photocatalytic activity was studied by methylene blue removal, pseudo-first order rate (k1), pseudo-second order rate (k2), the kinetics of adsorption at equilibrium (qe), pseudo-first (K1) and pseudo-second (K2) order adsorption kinetics. The results confirmed that photocatalytic activity was enhanced by the addition of GO in the photocatalyst composite beads. The results confirmed that the MB removal efficiency of ZnO(syn)-GO/SA-PVA composite bead was the best for all conditions described by k1, k2 and qt at around 0.0139 min-1, 0.0302 L.mg-1min-1 and 8.818 mg.g-1, respectively, under visible irradiation. In addition, the adsorption kinetics system was considered by the pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order adsorption kinetics, in which ZnO(syn)-GO/SA-PVA composite beads were around 0.0259 min-1 and 0.232 g.mg-1min-1, respectively.

Authors: Murthy Madhav , Babu K.Mallikharjuna , Jebraj Martin
Published: February 2019

This work deals with the experimental studies on effect of changing volume fraction and also various resin systems like Epoxy LY556, AW106 & CY230 on ultimate tensile, compression and flexural strength of a polymer matrix composite. The specimens were prepared through vacuum assisted resin transfer molding technique. The vacuum pump is a double stage rotary vacuum pump of specifications 300 lpm, 1 hp &3ph. Reinforcements of different thickness/layer of bidirectional e-glass fibers were used and the epoxy resins of varying viscosities were used. The machining of the fabricated specimens was carried out using abrasive water jet cutting facility. The test coupons were tested as per ASTM standards. Tensile, compression and flexural tests were carried out for each experiment and three trials were made for each experiment in order to arrive at the average value of tensile, compressive and flexural strength. The inferences are drawn for each type of resin system and volume fraction of the matrix and reinforcement used which helps in understanding the enhancement in ultimate strength of the test coupon under study.
Soluble Fc-Disabled Herpes Virus Entry Mediator Augments Activation and Cytotoxicity of NK Cells by Promoting Cross-Talk between NK Cells and Monocytes
Authors: Meng Qinglai , Zaidi Asifa K. , Sedy John , Bensussan Armand , Popkin Daniel L.
Published: February 2019

CD160 is highly expressed by NK cells and is associated with cytolytic effector activity. Herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM) activates NK cells for cytokine production and cytolytic function via CD160. Fc-fusions are a well-established class of therapeutics, where the Fc domain provides additional biological and pharmacological properties to the fusion protein including enhanced serum t1/2 and interaction with Fc receptor–expressing immune cells. We evaluated the specific function of HVEM in regulating CD160-mediated NK cell effector function by generating a fusion of the HVEM extracellular domain with human IgG1 Fc bearing CD16-binding mutations (Fc*) resulting in HVEM-(Fc*). HVEM-(Fc*) displayed reduced binding to the Fc receptor CD16 (i.e., Fc-disabled HVEM), which limited Fc receptor–induced responses. HVEM-(Fc*) functional activity was compared with HVEM-Fc containing the wild type human IgG1 Fc. HVEM-(Fc*) treatment of NK cells and PBMCs caused greater IFN-γ production, enhanced cytotoxicity, reduced NK fratricide, and no change in CD16 expression on human NK cells compared with HVEM-Fc. HVEM-(Fc*) treatment of monocytes or PBMCs enhanced the expression level of CD80, CD83, and CD40 expression on monocytes. HVEM-(Fc*)–enhanced NK cell activation and cytotoxicity were promoted via cross-talk between NK cells and monocytes that was driven by cell–cell contact. In this study, we have shown that soluble Fc-disabled HVEM-(Fc*) augments NK cell activation, IFN-γ production, and cytotoxicity of NK cells without inducing NK cell fratricide by promoting cross-talk between NK cells and monocytes without Fc receptor–induced effects. Soluble Fc-disabled HVEM-(Fc*) may be considered as a research and potentially therapeutic reagent for modulating immune responses via sole activation of HVEM receptors.
Syncrisis as literary motif in the story about the grown-up child Jesus in the temple (Luke 2:41–52 and the Thomas tradition)
Authors: Van Aarde Andries G.
Published: February 2019

Syncrisis as literary motif in the story about the grown-up child Jesus in the temple (Lk 2:41–52 and the Thomas tradition): The article explores hermeneutical solutions for the negative response from the child Jesus towards his biological parents in the Lukan temple story (Lk 2:41–52). The ‘wisdom’ of the child who acts in an ‘adult-like’ way is interpreted as a syncrisis. This literary motif is explained by an analysis of the contrasting positive and negative acts of the child Jesus towards teachers of the Torah in the Infancy Gospel of Thomas.
Correcting atmospheric CO2 and CH4 mole fractions obtained with Picarro analyzers for sensitivity of cavity pressure to water vapor
Authors: Reum Friedemann , Gerbig Christoph , Lavric Jost V. , Rella Chris W. , Göckede Mathias
Published: February 2019

Abstract. Measurements of dry air mole fractions of atmospheric
greenhouse gases are used in inverse models of atmospheric tracer transport
to quantify their sources and sinks. The measurements have to be calibrated
to a common scale to avoid bias in the inferred fluxes. For this purpose,
the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) has set requirements for the
interlaboratory compatibility of atmospheric greenhouse gas (GHG)
measurements. A widely used series of devices for these measurements are the
GHG analyzers manufactured by Picarro, Inc. These are often operated in
humid air, and the effects of water vapor are corrected for in
post-processing. Here, we report on rarely detected and previously
unexplained biases of the water correction method for CO2 and CH4
in the literature. They are largest at water vapor mole fractions below 0.5 % H2O, which were undersampled in previous studies, and can
therefore affect measurements obtained in humid air. Setups that dry sample
air using Nafion membranes may be affected as well if there are differences
in residual water vapor levels between sample and calibration air. The
biases are caused by a sensitivity of the pressure in the measurement cavity
to water vapor. We correct these biases by modifying the water correction
method from the literature. Our method relies on experiments that maintain
stable water vapor levels to allow equilibration of cavity pressure. In our
experiments with the commonly used droplet method, this requirement was not
fulfilled. Correcting CO2 measurements proved challenging, presumably
because of our humidification method. Open questions pertain to differences
among analyzers and variability over time. In our experiments, the biases
amounted to considerable fractions of the WMO interlaboratory compatibility
goals. Since measurements of dry air mole fractions of CO2 and CH4
are also subject to other uncertainties, correcting the cavity
pressure-related biases helps keep the overall accuracy of measurements
obtained with Picarro GHG analyzers in humid and potentially in Nafion-dried
air within the WMO goals.
Assessment of Sub-Shelf Melting Parameterisations Using theOcean-Ice Sheet Coupled Model NEMO(v3.6)-Elmer/Ice(v8.3)

Published: February 2019

Abstract. Oceanic melting beneath ice shelves is the main driver of the current mass loss of the Antarctic ice sheet, and is mostly parameterised in stand-alone ice-sheet modelling. Parameterisations are crude representations of reality, and their response to ocean warming has not been assessed in regard to 3D ocean-ice sheet coupled models. Here, we assess various melting parameterisations ranging from simple scalings with far-field thermal driving to emulators of box and plume models, using a new coupling framework combining the ocean model NEMO and the ice-sheet model Elmer/Ice. We define six idealised one-century scenarios for the far-field ocean ranging from cold to warm, and representative of potential futures for typical Antarctic ice shelves. The scenarios are used to constrain an idealised geometry of the Pine Island glacier representative of a relatively small cavity. Melt rates and sea-level contributions obtained with the parameterised stand-alone ice-sheet model are compared to the coupled model results. The plume parameterisation underestimates the contribution to sea level when forced by the warm(ing) scenarios. The box parameterisation compares fairly well to the coupled results in general and gives the best results using five boxes. For simple scalings, the comparison to the coupled framework shows that a quadratic dependency to thermal forcing is required, as opposed to linear. In addition, the quadratic dependency is improved when melting depends on both local and nonlocal, i.e. averaged over the ice shelf, thermal forcing. The results of both the box and the two quadratic parameterisations fall within or close to the coupled model uncertainty. Considering more robust sub-shelt melting parameterisations is key to decrease uncertainties on the Antarctic contribution to sea level rise. Comparing parameterisations to ocean/ice-sheet coupled simulations under various scenarios helps to assess them.
Development and evaluation of pollen source methodologies for the Victorian Grass Pollen Emissions Module VGPEM1.0
Authors: Emmerson Kathryn M. , Silver Jeremy D. , Newbigin Edward , Lampugnani Edwin R. , Suphioglu Cenk , Wain Alan , Ebert Elizabeth
Published: February 2019

Abstract. We present the first representation of grass pollen in a 3D dispersion model anywhere in Australia, tested using observations from eight counting sites in Victoria. The region's population has high rates of allergic rhinitis and asthma, and this has been linked to the high incidence of grass pollen allergy. Despite this, grass pollen dispersion in the Australian atmosphere has not been studied previously, and its source strength is untested. We describe ten pollen emission source methodologies examining the strengths of different immediate and seasonal timing functions, and spatial distribution of the sources. The timing function assumes a smooth seasonal term, modulated by an hourly meteorological function. A simple Gaussian representation of the pollen season worked well (average r = 0.54), but lacks the spatial and temporal variation that the satellite-derived Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) data can provide. However poor results were obtained using the EVI gradient (average r = 0.35), which gives the timing when grass turns from maximum greenness to a drying and flowering period; this is due to the greater spatial and temporal variability from this combined spatial and seasonal term. Better results were obtained using statistical methods that combine elements of the EVI dataset, a smooth seasonal term and instantaneous variation based on historical grass pollen observations (average r = 0.69). The seasonal magnitude is inferred from the maximum winter-time EVI, while the timing of the peak of the season was based on the day of the year when the EVI falls to 0.05 below its winter maximum. Measurements are vital to monitor changes in the pollen season, and the new pollen measurement sites in the Victorian network should be maintained.
The Lituya Bay landslide-generated mega-tsunami – numerical simulation and sensitivity analysis

Published: February 2019

Abstract. The 1958 Lituya Bay landslide-generated
mega-tsunami is simulated using the Landslide-HySEA model, a recently
developed
finite-volume Savage–Hutter shallow water coupled numerical model.
Two factors are crucial if the main objective of the numerical simulation is
to reproduce the maximal run-up with an accurate simulation of the inundated
area and a precise recreation of the known trimline of the 1958 mega-tsunami
of Lituya Bay: first, the accurate reconstruction of the initial slide and then
the choice of a suitable coupled landslide–fluid model able to reproduce how
the energy released by the landslide is transmitted to the water and then
propagated. Given the numerical model, the choice of parameters appears to be
a point of major importance, which leads us to perform a sensitivity analysis.
Based on public domain topo-bathymetric data, and on information extracted
from the work of Miller (1960), an approximation of Gilbert Inlet
topo-bathymetry was set up and used for the numerical simulation of the
mega-event. Once optimal model parameters were set, comparisons with
observational data were performed in order to validate the numerical results.
In the present work, we demonstrate that a shallow water type of model is
able to accurately reproduce such an extreme event as the Lituya Bay
mega-tsunami. The resulting numerical simulation is one of the first
successful attempts (if not the first) at numerically reproducing, in detail,
the main features of this event in a realistic 3-D basin geometry, where no
smoothing or other stabilizing factors in the bathymetric data are applied.
The impact of sea-level rise on tidal characteristics around Australia
Authors: Harker Alexander , Green J. A. Mattias , Schindelegger Michael , Wilmes Sophie-Berenice
Published: February 2019

Abstract. An established tidal model, validated for present-day conditions, is used to
investigate the effect of large levels of sea-level rise (SLR) on tidal
characteristics around Australasia. SLR is implemented through a uniform
depth increase across the model domain, with a comparison between the
implementation of coastal defences or allowing low-lying land to flood. The
complex spatial response of the semi-diurnal M2 constituent does not
appear to be linear with the imposed SLR. The most predominant features of
this response are the generation of new amphidromic systems within the Gulf
of Carpentaria and large-amplitude changes in the Arafura Sea, to the north
of Australia, and within embayments along Australia's north-west coast.
Dissipation from M2 notably decreases along north-west Australia but is
enhanced around New Zealand and the island chains to the north. The diurnal
constituent, K1, is found to decrease in amplitude in the Gulf of
Carpentaria when flooding is allowed. Coastal flooding has a profound impact
on the response of tidal amplitudes to SLR by creating local regions of
increased tidal dissipation and altering the coastal topography. Our results
also highlight the necessity for regional models to use correct open boundary
conditions reflecting the global tidal changes in response to SLR.
Traumatic Brachial Plexopathy in Athletes: Current Concepts for Diagnosis and Management of Stingers
Authors: Ahearn Briggs M. , Starr Harlan M. , Seiler John G.
Published: February 2019

Traumatic upper trunk brachial plexopathy, also known as a stinger or burner, is the most common upper extremity neurologic injury among athletes and most commonly involves the upper trunk. Recent studies have shown the incidence of both acute and recurrent injuries to be higher in patients with certain anatomic changes in the cervical spine. In addition, despite modern awareness, tackling techniques, and protective equipment, some think the incidence to be slowly on the rise in contact athletes. The severity of neurologic injury varies widely but usually does not result in significant loss of playing time or permanent neurologic deficits if appropriate management is undertaken. Timely diagnosis allows implementation of means to minimize the risk of recurrent injury. It is important for treating physicians to understand the pathogenesis, evaluation, and acute and long-term management of stingers to improve recovery and minimize chronic sequela.

Objetivo: Identificar a prevalência de retinopatia diabética (RD) em pacientes atendidos pela Estratégia Saúde da Família (ESF) de Ananindeua, Pará. Métodos: Este é um estudo do tipo seccional com 40 pacientes portadores de Diabetes Mellitus (DM) cadastrados no programa HIPERDIA e assistidos pela ESF de Ananindeua. Os selecionados foram submetidos a um questionário padronizado domiciliar e responderam questões quanto ao conhecimento, evolução e complicações do DM e da RD, além de dados socioeconômicos. Na etapa seguinte, um médico oftalmologista voluntário realizou fundoscopia e detectou os portadores da RD que, em seguida, foram encaminhados para um centro especializado para receber o tratamento específico. Desses pacientes, 9 foram excluídos da pesquisa por não comparecerem na unidade para realizar a fundoscopia. Resultados: A prevalência de RD encontrada foi de 40,7%, sendo que 4 pacientes tiveram sua análise prejudicada devido à presença de catarata, portanto só foi possível fazer avaliação em 27. Fatores associados com RD, após análise das variáveis, foram: tempo de conhecimento do diagnóstico de ser portador de DM, tipo de DM e RD não proliferativa. Conclusão: Este estudo piloto ressalta a importância da atenção primária no acompanhamento dos pacientes diabéticos, e da orientação aos servidores da saúde pública quanto à necessidade do encaminhamento periódico dos diabéticos ao oftalmologista.

Water can undergo natural physico-chemical changes, but it is
often caused by anthropogenic action due to improper disposal of effluent.
These changes lead to eutrophication, which results in a high index of nutrients
such as phosphorus and nitrogen, leading to vegetation growth. Other
consequences may be fish mortality, dark water color of water, strong odor
and transfer of pathogens, which endangers population health. The present
work had as objective to perform analyzes of total phosphorus in the
Municipal Spa of Quatá-SP. The method used for the analyzes was Phosphorus
with Reactive Orthophosphate, adapted from the Standard Methods for the
Examination of Water and Wastewater and the results were compared with
the trophic state classes and the parameters of the legislation. At the end of
the analyzes, the values obtained from EIT were considered high,
compromising the quality of the water in some points.

The toy is an indispensable accessory for the development of the
child. In view of this, it is essential that it is free from contamination from
industrial processes in its manufacture, which may leave traces of potentially
toxic metals that can cause health problems. The Technical Standard ABNT
NBR NM 300-3: 2011, (Part 3: Migration of certain elements), regulates the
maximum permissible concentrations of metals that may be present in the
material, being a maximum of 60 mg / kg for chromium and 90 mg / kg for
lead. The objective of this work was to analyze and compare the results of Pb
and Cr with the current norm for toys of different price ranges. The analyzes
were performed by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS). From the
results, there were high levels of chromium in all the analyzed brands, values
higher than allowed by the legislation. For lead, there was absence of metal in
the samples.

The aim of this research was to evaluate the concentrations of
lead and chromium in two species of fish, the Piranha-branca (Pristobrycon
striolatus) and Piau-tres-pintas (Leporinus freiderici), as they are the most
commercialized in the study region. These elements are known as
bioaccumulators and biomagnifiers, precisely because they accumulate in the
fatty tissues of living beings, increasing their concentration throughout the life
cycle of the species. The fish were purchased from fishermen from the region
of Panorama-SP, collected on the Paraná River, SP-MS. The preparation and
the digestion of the samples were based on the method described by Santos
and Silva (2015). The elements were quantified by flame atomic absorption
spectrometry (FAAS). According to the results obtained, the contents of the
analyzed metals were above the maximum limits allowed by Brazilian
legislation, therefore unfit for human consumption.

Schiff's reagent were used for identification and quantitative evaluation of
visible spectrophotometry and questionnaire application to clients. Three
samples were out of the standards that Anvisa establishes, because it is not
allowed to use above 0.2% of formaldehyde in the product, in the analysis of
the questions it was noticed that 50% of the interviewed women use this type

The interest in replacing native wood with fast growing
reforestation wood is recurrent, aiming at larger quantities of material in less
time with no losses in its resistive properties. This paper consists in comparing
the behavior of in natura structural timber parts with glued laminated timber,
made with polyurethane resin based on castor oil, with regard to the
resistance to axial compression. The assembly process of these pieces aims to
achieve a similar or even superior resistance to the solid ones, considering that
the MLC method allows the construction of structural pieces of many sizes and
formats using different pieces of wood. Two this end, two species of wood,
Pinus and Eucalyptus will be compared. The polyurethane resin, manufactured
by the company Imperveg, was used in the process of glueing the stacks
together. Evaluations will be performed according to NBR7190 (1997) aiming
to characterize the physical and mechanical properties of the pieces and the
results obtained will be submitted to statistical analysis by the Anova method.

Law 12,305 / 2010 came to consider recycling cooperatives as an
environmentally correct way of disposing of recyclable waste, and the number
of cooperatives has gradually increased. The Presidente Prudente Waste
Collection Cooperative was founded in 2003 with less than 15 employees,
currently 90 cooperatives are responsible for recycling all municipal waste. In
the case of COOPERLIX, there are physical, chemical, biological, ergonomic and
accident hazards inherent to the solid waste recycling activities, since the steps
in the recycling process are manual, requiring great physical effort by the
cooperative and generating stress due to monotony. Added to this, the
conditions of the place were presented with irregularities, increasing the risks
for employees. Thus, the objective of the present research was to draw up a
risk map based on observations made on the spot and then propose some
possible improvements.
