Published: September 2021

<p class="Normal1"><span>No presente trabalho foi realizada uma investigação experimental em um sistema de climatização dessecante, com a intenção de conhecer os benefícios da inserção de um rotor entálpico em sua estrutura. Basicamente, foi realizada uma análise da energia térmica consumida para reativar o sólido adsorvente de um rotor dessecante e também a efetividade do processo de desumidificação inerente ao sistema. Para isso, foram montadas duas bancadas de testes: a primeira formada por apenas um rotor dessecante; a segunda por um rotor dessecante e um rotor entálpico. Os resultados alcançados serviram para orientar a concepção de um novo sistema de climatização híbrido, bem como para mostrar a importância da inserção dos rotores entálpicos nos sistemas de climatização dessecantes. A combinação do rotor entálpico com o rotor dessecante ofereceu maior vantagem ao sistema de climatização, tanto em relação à sua efetividade de desumidificação quanto à possibilidade de consumir menos energia no processo de reativação do sólido adsorvente do rotor dessecante. Foi observado, no estudo, que, na menor temperatura de reativação usada para avaliar a atuação conjunta dos rotores, os resultados da efetividade de desumidificação e do consumo de energia de reativação foram expressivamente melhores do que aqueles apresentados usando a maior temperatura de reativação quando da avaliação do rotor dessecante atuando de forma isolada. </span></p>

<p class="02resumoabstracttexto">Elementos de reforço devidamente orientados num maciço de solo alteram o estado de tensões atuantes nesse maciço. A introdução de reforço não implica uma melhoria das características próprias do solo, mas uma alteração do comportamento global por meio da transferência de esforços que se dão na interface solo-reforço, resultando num melhor desempenho em termos de resistência e deformação. Tais mudanças de comportamento do conjunto solo-reforço estão sujeitas a fatores como: tipo de solo a ser reforçado; tipo de reforço utilizado; localização, orientação e alinhamento do reforço; níveis de tensões confinantes atuantes no maciço; condições de drenagem. Este artigo teve o objetivo de avaliar um solo silto-argiloso reforçado com geotêxtil por meio de ensaios triaxiais do tipo adensado não drenado (CU) sob diferentes níveis de tensão confinante (60 kPa, 100 kPa e 120 kPa) e arranjos de camadas de reforço (uma, duas e três camadas de geotêxtil), de modo a proporcionar uma melhor compreensão das características de resistência e deformação do conjunto. Concluiu-se que as amostras de solo reforçadas apresentaram um melhor desempenho tensão-deformação, principalmente nas situações de maior número de camadas de reforço, e que o efeito do geotêxtil na resistência ao cisalhamento do solo foi mais pronunciado em baixas tensões de confinamento.</p>

Published: September 2021

<p class="Normal1"><span>O presente trabalho consiste em uma revisão de literatura sobre a resistência não drenada do depósito de solos moles da Baixada de Jacarepaguá, na zona oeste do município do Rio de Janeiro. É feita uma caracterização da área, expondo condições geológico-geotécnicas do depósito e o contexto social e de uso do solo, ilustrando sua importância para a região. A partir dos resultados de Teixeira (2012) e Baroni (2016), são discutidos histórico de tensão e a normalização da resistência não drenada, evidenciando um paralelo entre a obtenção de resultados de campo e estimativas pelas correlações propostas por métodos como SHANSEP. Os resultados apresentados pelos autores e discutidos no presente estudo demonstram, por meio de amplos ensaios e coletas, que o referido solo é considerado “muito mole”, com baixa resistência não drenada da ordem de 30 kPa. A discussão apresentada também avalia a relação entre os ensaios de vane test (palheta) com o CPTu, ilustrando certa convergência entre os seus valores, além de poder avaliar as condições de poropressão.</span></p>

Published: September 2021

<p class="Normal1"><span>Sementes florestais podem ser semeadas após períodos de hidratação em água (<em>Hydropriming</em>), conforme recomendado em vários artigos. Para as sementes provenientes da Caatinga são poucas, porém, as informações sobre a efetividade dessa tecnologia. O objetivo deste artigo é, portanto, testar a utilização do <em>Hydropriming</em> em água para melhorar a germinação de algumas sementes de espécies florestais provenientes da Caatinga. Para tal, foi realizado o <em>Hydropriming</em>, por 24 h a 25 °C, em sementes de <em>Pityrocarpa moniliformis</em>, <em>Pseudobombax marginatum</em>, <em>Ceiba speciosa</em>, <em>Jacaranda brasiliana</em>, <em>Handroanthus spongiosus</em> e <em>Tabebuia aurea</em>. Havia um tratamento controle, sem a imersão para cada espécie. Os resultados de germinação foram testados por Qui-quadrado. Não houve diferenças estatísticas entre os tratamentos, exceto para a variável Primeira Contagem em relação à espécie <em>Pseudobombax marginatum</em>. Para as espécies <em>Ceiba speciosa</em>, <em>Handroanthus spongiosus</em> e <em>Tabebuia aurea</em> houve, entretanto, um acréscimo de cerca de 10% na germinação no tratamento com imersão em relação ao tratamento sem imersão. Recomenda-se que testes sejam realizados com sementes provenientes de outras populações e com outras condições de execução, para que sejam visualizadas também outras informações importantes na conservação e produção das referidas espécies.</span></p>

Published: September 2021

<p class="Normal1"><span>A fundação é a parte da estrutura de uma edificação responsável por transferir as cargas para o solo. Dentre os elementos de fundação, as sapatas consistem em um tipo de fundação superficial, construída em concreto armado e que podem ser produzidas para apoiar somente um pilar (sapatas isoladas) ou mais de um pilar simultaneamente (sapatas corridas ou combinadas). O dimensionamento de uma sapata deve ser realizado de modo que a armadura possa combater as tensões de tração às quais a sapata será submetida. Para tanto, diversos métodos de dimensionamento podem ser utilizados e que devem atender às recomendações das normas NBR 6118 e NBR 6122 da Associação Brasileira de Normas Técnicas (ABNT). Neste trabalho foi realizado o desenvolvimento de um software para pré-dimensionamento de sapatas isoladas empregando-se a linguagem de programação VBA. O software foi organizado em uma sequência de telas (janelas) que permitem ao usuário inserir informações necessárias para a realização dos cálculos, verificar o atendimento de critérios e obter os resultados do dimensionamento da sapata. Neste software, foram implementados três métodos para a realização do dimensionamento de sapatas isoladas: método das bielas e tirantes e outros dois métodos baseados em critérios do CEB-70 e da ACI-318. Além disso, o software desenvolvido foi aplicado em um estudo de caso com o objetivo de evidenciar a aplicabilidade do programa e comparar os resultados entre os métodos de dimensionamento apresentados. O resultado do estudo de caso evidencia a aplicabilidade e eficiência do software empregando-se os três métodos. Ainda foi possível verificar que o método da ACI-318 resultou em uma menor quantidade de aço para o caso estudado, enquanto que o método da CEB-70 resultou em uma maior quantidade de aço. </span></p>

Published: September 2021

Background: Cystic Echinococcosis (CE) is an emergent or re-emergent zoonosis and remains a public health and economic problem all over the world.
Methods: The present study was carried on the prevalence and genotypes of Echinococcus present in small ruminants in Kashmir valley. A total of 2100, sheep (2052) and goats (48), slaughtered or spontaneously dead, from various areas of Kashmir valley were screened for the presence of hydatidosis. In case of goat none of the cases were found positive for hydatidosis, whereas, all the positive cases (85) were recorded in sheep only. The overall prevalence of hydatidosis was 4.04%. The prevalence was higher in female sheep (5.46%) compared to males (2.83%). Season-wise highest prevalence was in summer (4.55%), followed by autumn (4.1%), spring (3.89%) and winter (2.5%).The liver was observed to be the most frequently infected organ with relative prevalence of 61.17% followed by lungs (38.82%).The rDNA-ITS1 fragment of positive samples was amplified with BD1 / 4S primers.
Results: The length of amplified fragment for all isolated samples was 1000bps. The products obtained on PCR were digested with four restriction enzymes (Rsa 1, Alu 1, Msp 1 and Taq1). Rsa 1, Alu 1, Msp 1 yielded identical fragments, 300 and 700 bp in sheep. TaqI restriction enzyme had no effect on PCR product and after digestion; intact 1000bps fragment was seen.
Conclusion: Phylogenetic analysis of ITS1 gene revealed that the common sheep strain (G1) is the predominant genotype in sheep in Kashmir valley.

Published: September 2021

Background: Dogs play an important role in transmission of parasites and zoonotic diseases, especially in developing countries. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of internal parasites in stray and pet dogs in Palestine.
Methods: Fecal samples were collected during the period between Jan to May 2019. A total of 150 fecal samples were collected and tested for parasites using sedimentation and flotation techniques. The targeted dogs were both pet dogs and stray dogs and were grouped according to gender and age.
Results: Although there was no significant difference in infestation between males and females, the prevalence rate of infestation in males was 63.1% compared to females 72.4%. Dogs of ages under one year had similar rate of infestation compared to older dogs with a rate of 67.3% and 67.4% respectively. Infestations were significantly higher (P<0.05) in stray dogs 81.4% compared to pet dogs 48.4%. The highest infestation rate was with Toxocara canis 46.0% followed by Dipylidium caninum 23.0%, Echinococcus spp. 14.0% ,Isosopora canis 9.0%, Ancylostoma caninum 8.0%, Giarda spp. 5.0%, Strongyloides spp. 4.0%, Trichuris vulpis 3.0%, and Cryptosporidium spp. 3.0%.
Conclusion: Local dogs in Palestine, especially stray dogs, are infested with different types of intestinal parasites that may cause many common and non-common diseases to humans. To prevent the spread of these parasites, future public health should be proposed and applied by authorities to achieve a healthy status of the residents in the country. Health awareness spread among people about the seriousness of the diseases transmitted by dogs must also be activated.

The global campaign of osteoporosis has been organized by the International Osteoporosis Foundation (IOF) and them introducing World Osteoporosis Day (WOD) in 1997. The day is celebrated on October 20th each year and aimed to improve the awareness of the population about disease prevention. We present some aspects of bone health and the prevention of osteoporosis related to the use of vitamins. The presenting mini-review covers a variety of sources including PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and directory of open access journals (DOAJ) from 10 years ago (Oct 2009 to Oct 2019) for recent developments in the prevention of bone loss. The search was performed by using combinations of the following keywords and or their equivalents; osteoporosis, bones health, bone loss, and vitamin to find related articles about the prevention of osteoporosis by nutritional factors. The factors affecting bone are various and could begin from fetal periods to the end of life. Some of them are not changeable including age, and genetic; however, it is possible to modify some others such as poor nutrition and vitamin deficiency. Beyond vitamin D deficiency, consumption of other vitamins also is beneficial to maintain bone health. By considering the nutritional factors especially vitamins that affect bones, it is possible to have stronger bones to enjoy life in the elderly and protect your future.

Authors: Roberts Nicola-Jade , Jomeen Julie , Thomson Gill 
Published: September 2021

OBJECTIVEBetween 20%-50% of women experience birth as traumatic, with negative impacts for women, infants and families. Currently, there is a lack of evidence into supportive interventions to ameliorate women's adverse responses following a traumatic birth. In North-West UK, a 6-week psychoeducation group support program (Coping with Birth Trauma [CwBT]) was developed and delivered by two trained therapists. The course aimed to facilitate women's understanding of trauma, and to provide coping strategies; additional speakers were also invited to discuss specialist issues. The aim of this evaluation was to explore women's experiences and perceptions of the CwBT, and to identify recommendations for course development.METHODSFollowing university ethics approval, all the women who had attended a CwBT course (n = 3) were invited to take part in a telephone interview. Eight women out of a possible sample of 16 agreed to participate. Thematic analysis was used to analyse the interview data.RESULTSTwo themes and associated sub-themes describe the social, cognitive and instrumentalcomponents of the CwBT course (“Creating a difference”) and how the course facilitated growth and help-seeking behaviors (“Growth and renewal”). The final theme “complaints and recommendations” details critical reflections and suggestions for course development. Recommendations included speakers from different therapeutic backgrounds and more opportunities for contact with women at different stages of their trauma journey.CONCLUSIONSOverall, the course was well received with positive implications for health, wellbeing and family functioning. Further and large-scale studies to assess its effectiveness are needed.

Published: September 2021

The main purpose of the study is to determine the effect of asynchronous learning to academic performance and students’ motivation towards Science. It is necessary since motivation serves as a foundation for better understanding of science concepts in an asynchronous setting. The respondents are 201 grade 11 students of Iligan Computer Institute (ICI) who are enrolled during the Academic Year 2020-2021. The ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) model was used in the study for the development of asynchronous lesson on Genetic Engineering with Google Classroom as the online platform. The research utilized SMTSL (Students Motivation Towards Science Learning) questionnaire developed by Tuan, et al. (2005) composed of 35 questions encompassing six (6) domains of motivation namely, self-efficacy, active learning strategies, science learning value, performance goal, achievement goal and learning environment stimulation. Quantitative data together with qualitative analysis showed that students are moderately motivated towards science learning in an asynchronous environment. The highest identified domain is science learning value indicating that students find the relevance of science with daily life which makes them motivated to learn science even in a remote learning environment where there is no direct contact and supervision. In contrast, self-efficacy and performance goal are the least domains suggesting that students are least concerned with their own ability to perform well in science learning tasks and they do not compete with other students and get attention from the teacher. Using the researcher-made achievement test and performance task to measure their academic performance, 80% of the students belong to approaching proficiency, proficient and advanced groups showing that students did well in science in an asynchronous learning environment. Moreover, students’ motivation was significantly correlated with science academic performance so science academic performance can be used as indirect evidence of students’ motivation. Based on these findings, it is recommended that curriculum experts and educators consider factors of motivation in revisiting the science curriculum in an asynchronous environment.
