Padrões Setoriais de Inovação na Indústria Brasileira
Authors: Campos Bruno , Ruiz Ana Urraca
Published: June 2017

O artigo objetiva investigar aspectos da mudança tecnológica na indústria brasileira. A literatura relacionada ao estabelecimento de padrões setoriais de inovação é utilizada como referencial teórico, ao passo que análises de clusters hierárquicas e não-hierárquicas são empregadas como recursos metodológicos. A base de dados principal é a Pesquisa Industrial de Inovação Tecnológica (PINTEC 2000), sendo analisados cinco traços da inovação tecnológica industrial: as fontes de inovação, as formas de conhecimento e aprendizagem, o foco da trajetória tecnológica, os tipos de resultados inovativos e as características de estrutura e desempenho. Os resultados apontam que a diversidade intersetorial não pode ser negligenciada quando se pretende entender o comportamento inovativo da indústria brasileira. O perfil inovativo dos setores industriais brasileiros é coerente com as proposições da literatura internacional, porém apresentam algumas especificidades.

Authors: Negri Fernanda de , Negri João Alberto de , Lemos Mauro Borges
Published: June 2017

O objetivo deste trabalho é avaliar o impacto do Programa de Apoio ao Desenvolvimento Tecnológico da Empresa Nacional (ADTEN) o do Fundo Nacional para o Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (FNDCT), administrado pela FINEP, sobre o desempenho econômico e tecnológico das empresas beneficiadas. O trabalho mostrou que os programas têm alcance relativamente pequeno para as dimensões da indústria brasileira. O programa atende menos de 0,1% das firmas industriais brasileiras com mais de dez pessoas ocupadas e o volume de recursos que são emprestados para as empresas no âmbito dos programas representam menos de 3% dos gastos realizados pelas próprias empresas em P&D no ano de 2000 e 2003. No período de 1996 a 2003, foram encontradas evidências robustas de que os programas influenciam positivamente os gastos privados de P&D das empresas, sugerindo a inexistência do chamado efeito crowding out. E há evidências também robustas de que os programas influenciam positivamente o crescimento das empresas.

A Twofold Sink Based Data Collection for Continuous Object Tracking in Wireless Sensor Network
Authors: Chauhdary Sajjad Hussain , Hassan Ali , Alqarni Mohammed A , Alamri Abdullah
Published: June 2017

Continuous object tracking in WSNs, such as monitoring of mud-rock flows, forest fires etc., is a challenging task due to characteristic nature of continuous objects. They can appear randomly in the network field, move continuously, and can change in size and shape. Monitoring such objects in real-time generally require tremendous amount of messaging between sensor nodes to synergistically estimate object’s movement and track its location. In this paper, we propose a novel twofold-sink mechanism, comprising of a mobile and a static sink node. Both sink nodes gather information about boundary sensor nodes, which is then used to uniformly distribute energy consumption across all network nodes, thus helping in saving residual energy of network nodes. Numerous object tracking schemes, using mobile sink, have been proposed in the literature. However, existing schemes employing mobile sink cannot be applied to track continuous objects, because of momentous variation of network topology. Therefore, we present in this paper a mechanism, transformed from K-means algorithm, to find the best sensing location of the mobile sink node. It helps to reduce transmission load on the intermediate network nodes situated between static sink node and the ordinary network sensing nodes. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme can distinctly improve life time of the network, compared to one-sink protocol employed in continuous object tracking.
A Study on the Abrasive Gels and the Application of Abrasive Flow Machining in Complex-Hole Polishing
Authors: Wang A-Cheng , Cheng Ken-Chuan , Chen Kuan-Yu , Lin Yan Cherng
Published: June 2017

Due to the fact that abrasive media can deform flexibly in abrasive flow machining (AFM) making this method easily to polish the complex holes and the curved surface of the hard machining shapes. Although abrasive media dominate the polishing behavior in AFM process, the mechanism of the abrasive media are not easy to understand because of the high viscous gels, therefore, many finishing works need lots of time to design AFM process. Power laws of the abrasive gels is studied here to evaluate the non-Newtonian flow of abrasive gels in complex holes polishing firstly, at the mean time different abrasive gels are utilized to finish the complex holes to follow the results by non-Newtonian flow calculation. Moreover, traditional AFM has difficulty to achieve a uniform roughness of radial distribution in the complex holes polishing because of the non-uniform abrasive forces. So a helical passageway is proposed to create a multiple motion of abrasive medium and to obtain the even surface of the complex holes in AFM process.

Published: June 2017

Human influenza A viruses (IAVs) cause global pandemics and epidemics, which remain serious threats to public health because of the shortage of effective means of control. To combat the surge of viral outbreaks, new treatments are urgently needed. Developing new virus control modalities requires better understanding of virus-host interactions. Here we describe how IAV infection triggers cellular apoptosis, and how this process can be exploited towards development of new therapeutics, which might be more effective than the currently available anti-influenza drugs.

Published: June 2017

We report the growth of graphene at a low temperature using the cold wall chemical vapor deposition technique (CWCVD). Few layered (~6-8 layers) graphene were grown on nickel-coated silicon with acetylene as the precursor gas. The advantage of the combination of the acetylene (as a carbon feedstock) and the nickel catalyst was the lowering of the graphene growth temperature. Nickel coated silicon samples were pre-treated (heat treatment in inert atmosphere) before the growth and the effect of the pre-treatment on the catalyst as well as on the grown film was studied. The final samples were characterized with scanning electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy. In CWCVD route, the heating of only the substrate holder enabled high heating and cooling rates, which, along with the control over partial pressure of the precursor gas had profound effect on the formation of graphene. In the best sample we have achieved almost equal intensity of the G and 2D peaks in Raman spectrum, which implied about ~6-8 layers of Graphene. The defect peak (the D band) was extremely small in the sample and it was attributed to the ripples and the underlying roughness of the nickel film. We analyzed that a proper choice of the thickness of catalyst layer and a higher cooling rate after graphene growth it would be possible to obtain monolayered graphene. Similar samples grown in a normal atmospheric CVD (with some engineered design to promote fast cooling) were also compared with the cold wall CVD grown samples and plasma assisted CWCVD, and cold-wall CVD demonstrated a better control over the quality of graphene film through the fast cooling and a controlled partial pressure of the precursor gas.

Ampliación del método da resistencia directa para dimensionar paredes de marco de acero
Authors: Kubde P. W. , Sangle K. K.
Published: June 2017

El uso de paredes de marco de acero (CFS) está creciendo debido a la evolución de la tecnología de manufactura, al desarrollo de la construcción civil y debido a la existencia de normas técnicas, confiriendo ventajas en su uso. Entretanto el proyecto de estructuras de CFS es complejo debido al poco espesor de las paredes y la existencia de aberturas (marcos y puertas) dejan esas estructuras sujetas a fallas por pandeo localizados, ocasionados por flexión combinada con torsión. El llamado Método de la Resistencia Directa, DSM, es el método disponible, con ciertas limitaciones, para dimensionar vigas y columnas. Para superar esas limitaciones este artículo se dedica a proponer una fórmula como ampliación y mejora del método tradicional de dimensionar por DSM. Una estructura de marco de acero fue analizada experimentalmente para validar el modelo usado en el programa de cálculo (software) y la misma estructura, con diferentes alturas, fue analizada por el método DSM y análisis por elementos finitos, con vistas a obtener una fórmula que amplió y mejoró el espectro de uso del DSM.

Soil Aggregate Dynamics Influenced by Biochar Addition using the 13C Natural Abundance Method
Authors: Yoo Gayoung , Kim Hyunjin , Choi Jong Yun
Published: June 2017

Understanding the mechanisms of biochar C sequestration within soil aggregates requires us to investigate the role of biochar in the soil aggregation process. We aimed to compare aggregate dynamics in soils amended with organic matter or with biochar and to quantify the amount of biochar and organic matter included in different sizes of aggregate. In free‐draining incubation jars, soils collected from grassland and rice (Oryza sativa L.) paddy were amended with fresh corn stalks (Zea mays L) and leaves (CORN_RAW) and with biochar made from corn stalks and leaves (CORN_CHAR). Temporal change in the aggregates were investigated. Soils were fractionated into macroaggregates (250–1000 μm), microaggregates (53–250 μm), and organo‐mineral complexes (<53 μm). The added materials were measured using the difference in the relative depletion of 13C (δ13C) values between the soil and the amendments. Although the macroaggregates in the CORN_RAW treatment increased throughout the incubation period, those in the CORN_CHAR treatment only increased during the initial 60 d. This indicates that macroaggregates in biochar‐amended soil might not be stable enough. However, microaggregates in the CORN_CHAR treatment showed an increase of >200% throughout the incubation period, probably as a result of the breakdown of macroaggregates and formation through chemical adsorptive interactions between biochar surface and soil particles. The proportion of biochar‐derived C within aggregates was greatly increased by 204% on average from the initial to later periods, indicating that biochar C is preferentially enriched because of its chemical recalcitrance and physical occlusion within the aggregates. The overall results imply that biochar amendment could initiate macroaggregation; however, the temporal change pattern was different. Biochar C could be both chemically and physically protected from decomposition during long‐term sequestration.
Influence of chemically enhanced primary treatment on anaerobic digestion and dewaterability of waste sludge
Authors: Kooijman G. , De Kreuk M. K. , van Lier J. B.
Published: June 2017

To lower energy consumption at a sewage treatment plant (STP), primary settling could be enhanced to direct more chemical oxygen demand (COD) to anaerobic digestion (AD) for increased biogas production and decreased aeration. Primary settling can be chemically enhanced by applying flocculation aids (FAs). FAs are refractory compounds that may affect all sludge treatment facilities. In this study the consequences are investigated of the application of FAs for chemically enhanced primary treatment (CEPT) on AD and subsequent dewatering of digested sludge in a conventional STP. It was found that FAs maintain their effect throughout all sludge processing facilities. With CEPT, more readily degradable solids were removed, resulting in a higher bio methane potential of the primary sludge. In AD, FAs lowered the viscosity; meanwhile an increased hydrolysis rate was observed. But FAs also partially irreversibly bound substrate in such way that it is not available for biological degradation anymore. In subsequent dewatering of digested sludge, a higher dry solids concentration was observed with CEPT. A computer simulation showed that in a conventional STP, CEPT would not be economically feasible. However, several benefits were discussed that can make CEPT an interesting option for future low COD/N-tolerant STPs with, for example, Anammox processes for N removal.

Published: June 2017

Three different sizes of powdered activated carbon (PAC) were added in hybrid anaerobic membrane bioreactors (AnMBRs) and their performance was compared with a conventional AnMBR without PAC in treating palm oil mill effluent. Their working volume was 1 L each. From the result, AnMBRs with PAC performed better than the AnMBR without PAC. It was also found that adding a relatively smaller size of PAC (approximately 100 μm) enhanced the chemical oxygen demand removal efficiency to 78.53 ± 0.66%, while the concentration of mixed liquor suspended solid and mixed liquor volatile suspended solid were 8,050 and 6,850 mg/L, respectively. The smaller size of PAC could also enhance the biofloc formation and biogas production. In addition, the smaller particle sizes of PAC incorporated into polyethersulfone membrane resulted in higher performance of membrane fouling control and produced better quality of effluent as compared to the membrane without the addition of PAC.
Adsorption Kinetics of 137Cs+/90Sr2+ on Ca‐Bentonite
Authors: Wang Rong , Chu Yingying , Chen Mengjun
Published: June 2017

137Cs+/90Sr2+ adsorption kinetics on natural Ca‐bentonite under the impact of different adsorption conditions was examined in detail. The results indicate that natural Ca‐bentonite shows a strong adsorption capacity for Cs+/Sr2+. The adsorption reached at equilibrium after 2 hours for Cs+. Cs+/Sr2+removal efficiency reaches the highest when the pH value is 5 to 8 and increases with the increase of Ca‐bentonite adding amount. Cs+ removal efficiency increases with the increase of Cs+ initial concentration, while Sr2+ removal efficiency slightly varies around 70%. The adsorption of Cs+/Sr2+ by Ca‐bentonite follows the pseudo‐second‐order model and is controlled by chemical adsorption. Meanwhile, the results of intraparticle diffusion modelling indicate that intraparticle diffusion is a kinetics controlling step, besides surface adsorption and liquid film diffusion.

Backrogund/Aim. Since the beginning of competitive sports, athletes have been trying to improve their abilities by taking various substances. The problem of using prohibited substances is not strictly tied to elite athletes; it is also present in the general population. The aim of this study was to test the knowledge and attitudes of the students regarding the use of stimulative substances and dietary supplements in sports. Methods. A cross-sectional study was performed among students at the College of Health and Professional Studies in Belgrade, Serbia. The data was collected by filling in an especially designed questionnaire. Results. Knowledge of prohibited substances and methods was characterized as ?good? with 24.2% of respondents, namely 8.09% of males and 16.1% of females; knowledge of the adverse effects of prohibited substances and methods on health was demonstrated by 17.7% (9.03% of male respondents and 8.72% of female respondents). Conclusion. Student population is not knowledgeable enough about the problems of prohibited substances use and their negative effects on one?s health. The comparative analysis of our and European researches on knowledge, attitudes and uses of prohibited substances show a rather uniform prevalence rate. Not being aware of the adverse effects shows the need to further educate students.

Published: June 2017

Background/Aim. Numerous findings have indicated the potential relation between the osteocalcin, the traditional parameter of bone turnover and the regulation of energy metabolism. The aim of this study was to identify the relationship between osteocalcin and calculated indexes, which evaluate insulin sensitivity, insulin resistance and/or secretory capacity of the pancreas, in non-diabetic, obese subjects. Methods. The study included 57 (11 men and 46 women) euglycemic, obese patients (the body mass index ? BMI : 41.03 ? 6.61 kg/m?) and 48 healthy individuals, age and sex matched (BMI : 23.15 ? 2.04 kg/m?). Plasma glucose and the insulin levels during the two-hour oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) were determined in order to calculate the Homeostatic Model Assessment (HOMA) indexes (HOMA-IR, HOMA-B%), EISI (estimated insulin sensitivity index), EFP (estimated first phase) and ESP (estimated second phase). Osteocalcin was measured by using the Electro-chemiluminescence (ECLIA) methodology. Results. Statistically lower osteocalcin was found in the obese subjects (24.72 ? 9.80 vs 33.31 ? 10.89 ng/mL; p < 0.01). ?here was a statistically significant positive correlation between osteocalcin and EISI (r = 0.340; p < 0.01). The inverse correlations were found between the osteocalcin and HOMA-IR (r = -0.276; p < 0.01), HOMA-B% (r = -0.337; p < 0.01), EFP (r = -0.332; p < 0.01) and ESP (r = -0.266; p < 0.01). Multiple regression showed that the BMI and osteocalcin have a significant inverse prediction with the EISI and HOMA-IR, but the level of prediction of the BMI was substantially higher. Conclusion. The effect of osteocalcin in the glycoregulation is evident, but its contribution is significantly smaller in relation to other obesity associated factors. Therefore, when assessing its position and the role in glycemic control it is always necessary to bear in mind that osteocalcin represents only one of the many contributing factors, some of which exhibit dominant influence than osteocalcin itself.

Background/Aim. Keratoconus is a disorder of the eye which results in progressive thinning of the cornea. The cross-linking procedure (CXL) is applied in the treatment of initial progredient forms of keratoconus. It is aiming at increasing biomechanical stability of corneal stromal tissue to slow down or stop progressing the ectatic disorder. The aim of the study was to examine the effect of CXL procedure on values of steep keratometry (K2) and central pachymetry (CCT) six months after the intervention in keratoconusaffected patients. Methods. Clinical prospective cohort study included 30 eyes of 29 patients suffering from keratoconus. All patients were examined on Allegro-Oculyzer in order to diagnose and follow up keratoconus, thus obtaining corneal topography parameters and parameters important for this study: K2 and CCT, preoperatively and six months postoperatively. The CXL procedure was carried out by following the modified Dresden Protocol. Results. K2 mean value was 49.01 ? 3.99 diopter (Dpt) preoperatively and 48.06 ? 4.46 Dpt six months postoperatively. K2 decreased six months postoperatively by 0.95 Dpt, proportionally in all patients. Student's paired sample t test showed that average decrease of K2 (d? = 0.95 Dpt) was highly statistically significant (t = 3.381; p < 0.01). CCT mean value was 480.17 ? 36.62 ?m preoperatively and 444.37 ? 45.01 ?m six months postoperatively. CCT decreased six months postoperatively by 35.8 ?m, proportionally in all patients. Student's paired sample t test showed that average decrease of CCT (d? = 35.8 ?m) was highly statistically important (t = 6.40; p < 0.001)). Conclusion. Application of CXL procedure in the treatment of keratoconus with confirmed progression highly reduces steep keratometry and central pachymetry six months postoperatively. By steep keratometry reducing effect the CXL procedure is efficient in the treatment of keratoconus, especially its initial stages.

Por muchos años, las enfermeras peruanas reflexionamos sobre la imagen social que proyectamos a la comunidad; es decir, de cómo la población nos percibe a nosotras las enfermeras, no solo a nivel nacional, también internacionalmente y muestra de ello es que se realizan trabajos de investigación sobre la imagen de la enfermera, lo cual denota un manifiesto interés y preocupación por desarrollar nuestra identidad e imagen socioprofesional. Los autores revisados sobre el tema refieren que la imagen que la sociedad tiene de las enfermeras no coincide con la identidad profesional de este colectivo; es decir, con lo que realmente las enfermeras son y hacen, lo cual repercute negativamente en el reconocimiento social de las enfermera
Thyrotoxicosis induced by excessive 3,5,3′-triiodothyronine in a dog
Authors: Morré Wendy A. , Panciera David L. , Daniel Gregory B. , Refsal Kent R. , Rick Markus , Arrington Kathy
Published: June 2017

CASE DESCRIPTION A 7-year-old castrated male Havanese was evaluated at a veterinary teaching hospital because of a 12-week history of hyperactivity, aggression, and progressive weight loss despite a healthy appetite.

CLINICAL FINDINGS Tachycardia was the only remarkable finding during physical examination. Serum 3,5,3′-triiodothyronine (T3) and free T3 concentrations were markedly increased, and thyroxine (T4), free T4, and thyroid-stimulating hormone concentrations were at or decreased from the respective reference ranges. Thyroid scintigraphy revealed suppressed uptake of sodium pertechnetate Tc 99m by the thyroid gland but no ectopic thyroid tissue, which was indicative of thyrotoxicosis induced by an exogenous source of T3.

TREATMENT AND OUTCOME The dog was hospitalized for 24 hours, and its diet was changed, after which the clinical signs rapidly resolved and serum T3 and free T3 concentrations returned to within the respective reference ranges. This raised suspicion of an exogenous source of T3 in the dog's home environment. Analysis of the commercial beef-based canned food the dog was being fed revealed a high concentration of T3 (1.39 μg/g) and an iodine (82.44 μg/g) concentration that exceeded industry recommendations. No other source of T3 was identified in the dog's environment.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE To our knowledge, this is the first report of clinical thyrotoxicosis in a dog induced by exogenous T3, although the source of exogenous T3 was not identified. This case highlights the importance of measuring serum T3 and thyroid-stimulating hormone concentrations in addition to T4 and free T4 concentrations when there is incongruity between clinical findings and thyroid function test results.

O DISCURSO PRINCIPIOLÓGICO DO CÓDIGO BRASILEIRO DE DEFESA DO CONSUMIDOR
Authors: Soares Ricardo Maurício Freire
Published: June 2017

O presente trabalho se propõe a repensar a interpretação de uma das legislações mais avançadas do Direito Econômico nacional – a Lei nº 8.078/90. Rompendo com os postulados individualistas e liberais do direito privado moderno, o surgimento das leis consumeristas, como o Código Brasileiro de Defesa do Consumidor, simboliza a atualização do direito ocidental, na busca de uma maior isonomia fática entre fornecedores e consumidores. A efetividade da Lei nº 8.078/90 requer o exercício de práticas interpretativas progressistas, o que abre margem para a reformulação dos paradigmas hermenêuticos tradicionalmente oferecidos pela ciência jurídica, o que implica o uso dos princípios jurídicos, os quais, no âmbito das relações econômicas do mercado capitalista, adquirem enorme relevância ao concretizar e maximizar o espírito protetivo dessa codificação.
A TEORIA DA DESCONSIDERAÇÃO DA PERSONALIDADE JURÍDICA POSITIVA COMO INSTRUMENTO EFETIVADOR DE DIREITOS FUNDAMENTAIS

Objetiva-se com o presente analisar como a teoria da desconsideração da personalidade jurídica positiva pode ser utilizada de forma a resguarda a função social e a preservação da empresa.Uma vez que a pessoa jurídica adquira personalidade única possibilidade de mitigar tais efeitos e o próprio princípio da autonomia patrimonial é por meio da desconsideração. A teoria, na sua origem,foi utilizada como forma de combater a ilicitude (teoria maior e inversa) ou a insolvência (teoria menor), ou seja, sempre utilizada sob o ponto de vista negativo (como forma de punição). O que se demonstra no presente, por meio do método monográfico, é a sua utilidade para resguardar e defender valores constitucionalmente consagrados, como a dignidade da pessoa humana, função social e preservação da empresa.

A exposição de motivos do novo CPC, reconhecendo que justiça retardada é justiça denegada, exalta os princípios da razoável duração dos processos e da efetividade, para que pautem toda interpretação e aplicação do direito ao caso concreto. Não obstante, a ascensão e fortalecimento do Judiciário, dotado de autonomia e independência como nunca antes no Brasil, a autorrestrição judicial tem prevalecido no âmbito do direito processual público. Nesse campo, curiosa e paradoxalmente, a deferência dos juízes ao legislador e ao administrador encontra respaldo, agora, no novo CPC, que consagra vantagens ao Poder Público em juízo que militam contra as expectativas por um processo mais célere, justo e efetivo. Em que pese seja o único diploma processual elaborado num Estado Democrático de Direito, entulhos autoritários permanecem escamoteados nele. A comissão de renomados juristas responsáveis pela elaboração do novo Codex absteve-se de enfrentar as críticas quanto ao nosso contencioso judicial administrativo. Continuaremos, pois, tendo um processo demasiadamente moroso, injusto e irresoluto no âmbito do ramo processual em foco.
A RATIO DECIDENDI E A SUA ADEQUAÇÃO AO CASO CONCRETO
Authors: Paula Jônatas Luiz Moreira de , Ribas Maristela Silva Fagundes
Published: June 2017

O Código de Processo Civil de 2015 adotou o uso dos precedentes judiciais, almejando que as decisões proferidas pelos tribunais superiores sirvam de referência vinculante no ordenamento jurídico. No entanto, seguindo o sistema de precedentes, um precedente judicial não poderá ser aplicado de maneira infundada, há a imposição de se comparar o caso concreto com a decisão paradigma. Para tanto, cumpre analisar o elemento que compõe o precedente e que opera a eficácia vinculante às decisões judiciais, a razão que enseja à decisão (ratio decidendi). Primeiramente, a análise será em face da sua definição e, num segundo momento, como ocorre a aplicação ao caso concreto, especialmente, quando necessário o uso da técnica da distinção (distinguishing), a fim de recusar o uso do precedente.

LA AUSENCIA FEMENINA EN LA NORMALIZACIÓN DE LA FILOSOFÍA ARGENTINA. NOTAS AL EPISTOLARIO DE FRANCISCO ROMERO
Authors: Alvarado Mariana
Published: June 2017

La filosofía ha sido tradicionalmente pensada como un oficio “propiamente” masculino. En general, su práctica ha sido atribuida a varones. Esa historia de “la” filosofía occidental, claro está, coloca a los varones en un lugar hegemónico. La Historia de las Ideas en América también se cuenta con rostros del hombre blanco.La tendencia a profesionalizar la filosofía como una tarea que exigía esfuerzo, aprendizaje y continuidad cobró fuerza en la República Argentina en las primeras décadas del siglo XX. Un filosofar “riguroso” que en  téminos de Francisco Romero (Españ-Argentina, 1891-1962) estuvo en manos de los “fundadores” de la filosofí, de los “creadores de tradiciones”, de los “patriarcas” como los iniciadores de un proceso de reestructuració filosóica.Atentas al intercambio epistolar que Francisco Romero sostuvo con mujeres que han sido reconocidas por tareas que “exceden” a la filosofí y que las colocan en espacios “propiamente” femeninos como la literatura o la docencia, nos proponemos dimensionar el que-hacer del que esas mujeres dan cuenta en sus cartas a fin de revisar el estado de los estudios filosóficos nacionales y Latinoamericanos que, entendemos, ayudó a la institucionalización de la filosofía e impulsó a la Historia de las Ideas como disciplina.A la base de la red epistolar femenina romeriana cuyo intercambio se concentra en la década 1940-1950 hemos querido pensar el lugar de algunas mujeres y el de “la” mujer en la constitución de ese epistolario, identificar los temas y problemas que fueron parte de ese intercambio y situarlo en relación a la constitución de la filosofía como disciplina institucionalizada. La red epistolar fuente de este recorrido reúne los nombres de las argentinas Margarita Arguas, María Mercedes Berdada, Beatriz Bosch, Olga Cossettini, Carmen Gandara, Angélica Mendoza, Victoria Ocampo, María Zambrano, Lidia Peradotto así como de la chilena Amanda Labarca, la puertorriqueña Concha Meléndez y la mexicana Concha Romero James.Palabras claves: Mujeres, Francisco Romero, normalización filosófica, Filosofía Argentina.  Epistemología feminista The Absence of Women in the Normalization of Argentinian Philosophy. Notes to Francisco Romero’s Epistolary Abstract: Western philosophy has been defined from an androcentric paradigm. In general, its use has been attributed to the male. In that story men occupy a hegemonic place. The History of Ideas has also faces of white men.

TERESA DE CEPEDA Y AHUMADA. UNA VIDA DE AMOR Y TRANSGRESIÓN EN UN MUNDO DE VIOLENCIAS
Authors: Arias Bautista María Teresa
Published: June 2017

Teresa de Cepeda y Ahumada: Una vida de amor y transgresión en un tiempo de violencias Resumen: Teresa de Cepeda y Ahumada fue una mujer peculiar y extraordinaria. Su vida y su obra literaria y fundacional ha hecho correr tinta desde su propio tiempo hasta el presente. Mi aportación se centra en tres cuestiones sugerentes y ligadas entre sí: el amor con el que amó, ese sentimiento intenso del ser humano que, partiendo de su propia insuficiencia, necesita y busca el encuentro y unión con otro ser, según define la RAE y que ella centró en Dios. En la transgresión, o su capacidad para romper las normas, y, finalmente, en la violencia que la rodeó.Palabras clave: Mujeres, historia, santidad femenina, Santa Teresa, Inquisición, mujeres escritoras. Teresa de Cepeda y Ahumada.A Life of Love and Transgression in a Time of Violence Abstract: Teresa de Cepeda y Ahumada was a peculiar and extraordinary woman. Her life and her literary and foundational work have run ink from her own time to the present. My contribution focuses on three suggestive questions and bound together: the love with which she loved, that intense feeling of the human being, from her own inadequacy, needs and seeks contact and union with another being, as defined by the RAE, and which she focused on God. In the transgression, or her ability to break rules, and finally, in the violence that surrounded her.Key words: Women, history, female holiness, Santa Teresa, Inquisition, women writers.

Every Little Thing He Does: Entrepreneurship and Appropriation in the "Magic Mike" Series
Authors: Chow Broderick
Published: June 2017

This essay analyses the theatricalized performance of stripping in the popular films Magic Mike (2013; dir. Steven Soderbergh) and its sequel, Magic Mike XXL (2015; dir. Gregory Jacobs). As several pieces about the series have argued, the filmmakers align making oneself an object of desire with an ideology of the ‘entrepreneurial subject’—a versatile and flexible subject suited for a post-Fordist economy—through the figure of ‘Magic’ Mike, a contemporary factotum, played by the charismatic Channing Tatum. Following a critical dance studies approach that attends to the intersection of body and gesture with socio-political, historical, and economic structures, I suggest theatricalized sexual labour in these films reveals the racial exclusions from the ideology of entrepreneurship. Key to my reading is the concept of ‘magic’, part of Mike’s nom de strip. Mike, the hegemonically masculine, heterosexual, white male protagonist, is magic because he is magnetic and effortlessly talented, in such a way that even the material world seems animated by his thrusting pelvis. Magic functions as an ideological device that attempts to hide the labour of training and performance as well as the structures of production in which this labour takes place. Considering the appropriation of black aesthetics in Magic Mike XXL’s performances of striptease, the film seeks to evaporate the spectre of race, that is, the way the white fantasy of the entrepreneurial subject is supported by the appropriation of racialized and especially black labour. While the narrative does not confront the appropriation of black labour directly, an analysis of the performances of striptease shows the film working through the issue on another level, in the complex entanglement of flesh and fantasy, agency and objectification, and racial and gendered desire.
Effect of overlap length and scarf angle on the mechanical properties of different adhesive joints subjected to tensile loads
Authors: Adin Hamit
Published: June 2017

In this study, the effect of adherend dimensions and scarf angle on mechanical behavior of different adhesively bonded joints was analyzed. The adhesive joints were subjected to tensile load. The stresses were analyzed by three-dimensional finite element method. The three-dimensional finite element method calculations were performed by using ANSYS (verification 14.0.1). The strength of three different lap joint types with similar bonding area (W = 25 mm, L = 10 mm) and adherend thickness were examined. Numerical results were found to be quite reasonable. Also, they indicate that the maximum stresses in the different joints can be significantly reduced by changing the dimensions of different joints. The double lap joints were the highest ultimate failure loads.

Published: June 2017

The main targets of this research are the synthesis of aluminum foams with micro- and nano-scale SiC reinforcements and the assessment of their mechanical properties and cellular structures. For this purpose, the equal weight percents of micro- and nano-SiC particles were added to premixed aluminum, TiH2 and Si powders. Then, the foaming process was applied under identical conditions for two nano and micro samples. Finally, uniaxial compression tests were carried out to survey the energy absorption of two nano and micro closed-cell foams. The obtained results indicated that the reinforced aluminum foam with nano-SiC particles exhibited compressive strength in the range of about 28 times higher than the micro-SiC foam. Moreover, scanning electron microscopy images revealed the reinforced aluminum foam with micro-SiC particles contained cellular structure with significant cell wall ruptures, while incorporation of nano-scale reinforcement improved the cell wall thickness uniformity without any considerable ruptures.

Authors: Xing Haofeng , Han Jie , Li Chunfeng
Published: June 2017

The available fiber optic sensing technology is increasingly becoming a superior nondestructive means for stress monitoring of civil engineering structures. To understand the mechanical properties of superlarge-diameter rock-socketed piles under complicated geological conditions, field tests were performed using distributed fiber optic sensors in this paper. At first, the feasibility of fiber optic sensing technology in testing compressive stress of piles was testified by indoor model tests and its correlation coefficient was acquired as well. Then, the in-situ installation of fiber optic sensors were carried out on the superlarge-diameter rock-socketed piles of Hezhang Bridge. By the testing data collection during construction and the data treatment and analysis, the bearing behaviors and load transfer mechanism of superlarge-diameter rock-socketed piles were explored. Based on the comparison of the testing results and the actual force and settlement of the support engineering, the fiber optic sensing technology in monitoring pile stress was further testified to be feasible and proposed as well. The research results in this paper have reference value to pile theory and the application of fiber optic sensing technology on similar projects.

Published: June 2017

Based on the example of testing the two-phase high-strength titanium alloy VT22 and submicrocrystalline commercially pure titanium VT1-0 with different initial structures, the basic regularities are found in the variation of the mechanical properties under specific impact with oscillation loading on the elastic section of stress-strain curves. It is experimentally shown that for the two-phase high-strength titanium alloys, the addition of specific impact with oscillation loading on the elastic section of stress-strain curves can be used as a technological method for improving the initial mechanical properties, in particular, ductility.
