Abstract
The use of solar powered plant is increasing in the world, and many companies now target to build the solar plants, by taking the help from the top retailers in the world. With the growing demands of the consumers regarding the issue of energy security, the renewable energy resources industry has been advanced with the transformations it has given to the society with the launch of the new technology, named as the solar panels. This evolution has made the industry to utilize the renewable energy resources, specifically the solar energy, in a very effective manner that has given the consumer the authority to generate the electricity with reduced power and cost. In this scenario, the solar photovoltaic power plant is used which is connected to the grid system that is the best source used at the large scale. Experiments have been conducted to evaluate the performance of the solar photovoltaic power systems which gives the overview of the benefits of installing the solar panels in the regions where the climatic conditions are favorable. Seasonal evaluations have been done in the experiment which is useful to deduce the overall performance in terms of the electricity generation and the cost. In this paper, the suggestions to the renewable energy resource company have been given in order to make cost-effective initiatives in the region to satisfy its consumers by providing valuable source of products. This paper focuses on the parameters on the basis of which the performance is evaluated which includes the types of power losses, consisting of the temperature, internal network, power electronics, connection of grid etc.
Improved Borehole Imaging by Ultrasonics
Authors: Hayman A. J. , Parent Philippe , Cheung Philip , Verges Patrick 
Published: April 2018

Abstract
A new ultrasonic tool for borehole and casing imaging has been developed based on recent cementation imaging technology. A rotating ultrasonic transducer scans the borehole at a high sampling rate to provide detailed images of echo amplitude and radius.
A 250 or 500 kHz focused transducer gives high resolution, penetration in heavy mud and low sensitivity to tool eccentering. The echoes are analyzed by a downhole digital signal processor to optimize the accuracy and reliability of the radius measurement. The measurements are corrected for eccentering, and the image color scales are dynamically adjusted for optimum sensitivity in real time by the surface computer.
Comparisons with electrical imaging tools show the ultrasonic amplitude measurement tends to respond to lithology indirectly via changes in borehole radius or rugosity. Ultrasonic imaging is unique in making quantitative high-resolution measurements of borehole geometry that are useful for borehole stability analysis. Examples of automatic hole shape analysis are shown. The tool can also evaluate internal casing corrosion and detect holes.
Known Triterpenes and their Derivatives as Scaffolds for the Development of New Therapeutic Agents for Cancer
Authors: Peron Gregorio , Marzaro Giovanni , Dall`Acqua Stefano 
Published: April 2018

Background:
Plants produce several bioactive secondary metabolites whose are used as
therapeutic agents to treat several diseases, among whom cancer. Triterpenes are secondary metabolites
that exert inhibitory activity against multiple intracellular and extracellular targets in euchariotic cells.
These targets are proteins involved in apoptosis, cell development and differentiation, angiogenesis,
metastasis and inflammatory processes. The inhibition of their functions leads to decreased cellular
growth, differentiation and migration, resulting in antitumor activity, as shown by several authors. Furthermore,
during recent years synthetic triterpenoid derivatives have also been developed to implement
potency and efficacy of starting compounds, allowing the obtainment of new agents having promising
anticancer activity.

Objective:
In this review we report the latest results regarding anticancer activity of some of the most
studied triterpenes in the field, as well as of their semi-synthetic derivatives, with the aim to summarize
the role of triterpenes as molecular leads for the development of new classes of antitumor agents.

Methods:
We focused on the most recent literature regarding triterpenes in cancer treatment, highlighting
the potential of developing new drugs starting from these natural compounds.

Conclusion:
Several “old” triterpenes as ursolic, betulinic and oleanolic acids were recently reconsidered
as model compounds for the development of innovative anticancer agents. Their activity
against proteins involved in tumor development enhances the opportunity to exploit these compounds
as new multi-target therapeutic agents. Furthermore, the possibility to synthetize new compounds from
their natural-occurring structures could be an alternative to overcome cellular resistance to drugs and
could improve their therapeutic efficacy.
Engagement With a Trauma Recovery Internet Intervention Explained With the Health Action Process Approach (HAPA): Longitudinal Study
Authors: Yeager Carolyn M , Shoji Kotaro , Luszczynska Aleksandra , Benight Charles C 
Published: April 2018

Background
There has been a growing trend in the delivery of mental health treatment via technology (ie, electronic health, eHealth). However, engagement with eHealth interventions is a concern, and theoretically based research in this area is sparse. Factors that influence engagement are poorly understood, especially in trauma survivors with symptoms of posttraumatic stress.

Objective
The aim of this study was to examine engagement with a trauma recovery eHealth intervention using the Health Action Process Approach theoretical model. Outcome expectancy, perceived need, pretreatment self-efficacy, and trauma symptoms influence the formation of intentions (motivational phase), followed by planning, which mediates the translation of intentions into engagement (volitional phase). We hypothesized the mediational effect of planning would be moderated by level of treatment self-efficacy.

Methods
Trauma survivors from around the United States used the eHealth intervention for 2 weeks. We collected baseline demographic, social cognitive predictors, and distress symptoms and measured engagement subjectively and objectively throughout the intervention.

Results
The motivational phase model explained 48% of the variance, and outcome expectations (beta=.36), perceived need (beta=.32), pretreatment self-efficacy (beta=.13), and trauma symptoms (beta=.21) were significant predictors of intention (N=440). In the volitional phase, results of the moderated mediation model indicated for low levels of treatment self-efficacy, planning mediated the effects of intention on levels of engagement (B=0.89, 95% CI 0.143-2.605; N=115).

Conclusions
Though many factors can affect engagement, these results offer a theoretical framework for understanding engagement with an eHealth intervention. This study highlighted the importance of perceived need, outcome expectations, self-efficacy, and baseline distress symptoms in the formation of intentions to use the intervention. For those low in treatment self-efficacy, planning may play an important role in the translation of intentions into engagement. Results of this study may help bring some clarification to the question of what makes eHealth interventions work.
INTEGRATION OF FETAL MID THIGH SOFT TISSUE THICKNESS IN ULTRASOUND BIRTH WEIGHT ESTIMATION FORMULA INCREASES THE ACCURACY OF FETAL WEIGHT ESTIMATION NEAR TERM
Authors: Hebbar Shripad , Malaviya Sukriti , Bharatnur Sunanda 
Published: April 2018

Objective: The objective of the study was to find whether incorporation of MTSTT in fetal weight estimation formulae which are traditionally based on biparietal diameter (BPD), head circumference (HC), abdominal circumference (AC), and femur length (FL) improves birth weight (BW) estimation. Methods: In a prospective observational study, MTSTT was measured within 1 week of delivery in 100 women with term singleton pregnancy along with other standard biometric parameters, i.e. BPD, HC, AC and FL, and MTSTT. Multiple regression analysis was carried out using PHOEBE regression software using different combinations of biometric variables to find out the best fit model of fetal weight estimation. The predicted BW was compared with actual neonatal BW soon after delivery and regression coefficients (R2) were determined for each of prediction models for comparing the accuracies. Results: Mean gestational age at delivery was 38.4±1.08 weeks and the BW of neonates varied between 2.18 kg and 4.38 kg (mean ± standard deviation: 3.07±0.43 kg). By adding MTSTT to BPD, HC, AC, and FL, we obtained the formula Log 10 (BW) = −0.14783+0.00725 *BPD +0.00043 *HC +0.00436 *AC +0.01942 *FL +0.16299 *MTSTT, which had a very good Pearson regression coefficient ((r2: 0.89 p<0.001) compared to conventional models based on standard fetal biometry. All prediction models had better strength of correlation when combined with MTSTT (p<0.001). The routine four parameter formula could identify 45% and 80% of fetuses within 5% and 10% weight range; pick up rate was further increased to 61% and 95% by addition of MTSTT. Conclusion: It is evident that addition of MTSTT to other biometric variables in models of fetal weight estimation improves neonatal BW prediction (r2=0.89).
Only the Envelope: artistic interpretations of eye-tracking imagery
Authors: Vahri McKenzie  , Neil K Ferguson  
Published: April 2018

Only the Envelope (OTE) combines several research methodologies to investigate the ways we share personal information in the public sphere. This exposition presents video and video stills as primary artefacts in a discussion about a live artwork that dramatises the act of looking. In a live art installation, a ‘scientist’ invited visitors to be involved in an ‘experiment’ — namely, viewing a film while wearing a wireless eye-tracking device. This surveillance technology generated data about viewing behaviour. However, of greater interest was investigating how engaging with OTE as creative arts research led to unanticipated findings. Also interesting were the new audiovisual documents created through a re-enactment of the visitor’s experience, in which the eye-tracking device was redeployed as a head-mounted camera. In the artistic research context of OTE, the re-enacted videos led to new data being collected and analysed, leading to novel insights. These show that OTE’s ironic performance of science, employing the coercive power of complex technologies, maintained rather than undermined the compliant behaviour of participants. At the same time, the artist’s re-enactment of the visitor’s experience makes it possible to imagine, represent, and discuss such an act of subversion by illuminating the complexity of viewing behaviour when considered within the politics of the gaze and representation. This complexity is a reflection both of the emergent nature of a process-driven creative arts research enquiry, and of the work’s investigation of data retention.
TECTONOSTRATIGRAPHIC CHARACTERIZATION OF THE ADJACENT PORTION TO THE SÃO VICENTE EARTHQUAKE EPICENTER IN THE SANTOS BASIN, BRAZIL
Authors: Schweig Camila , Dourado João Carlos , Souza Anderson De 
Published: April 2018

ABSTRACT. The São Vicente earthquake, which had occurred in the Santos Basin, approximately 200 km from São Vicente city, São Paulo state in 2008, was well detected in the global network, allowing a good determination of their focal mechanisms and associated nodal planes, sub-horizontal (strike 82◦) and subvertical (strike 341◦). Understanding seismic, geological and geophysical data have been necessary to determine which nodal plane is the earthquake generating fault. Gravity anomaly maps and structural contour maps allowed defining structures on regional scale. It has been observed that the epicenter is located in the high portion of the slope next to a canyon feature and the aligned graben occurrence, the Merluza Graben, coincident with Capricorn Lineament occurrence. The seismic sections have shown that in the direction of the sub-horizontal plane, less significant faults have occurred when compared to the direction of subvertical plane where there have been faults that intersect from the basement layer to the Cenozoic layers, indicating that they were activated or reactivated on neotectonic events. The mapping of a normal antithetic fault to the NS direction quite significant along the data, has suggested that a horizontal trend of this fault plane might bind to the earthquake hypocenter.Keywords: intraplate seismicity, seismic, passive margin. RESUMO. O sismo São Vicente, que ocorreu na Bacia de Santos, a aproximadamente 200 km da cidade de São Vicente (SP) em 2008, foi bem detectado na rede mundial sismográfica, o que possibilitou uma boa determinação de seus mecanismos focais e planos nodais associados, sub-horizontal (strike 82◦) e subvertical (strike 341◦). Para determinar qual plano nodal representa a falha geradora do sismo é necess´ario o entendimento de dados sismológicos, geológicos e geofísicos. Mapas de anomalia gravimétrica e mapas de contorno estrutural permitiram definir estruturas em escala regional. Observa-se que o epicentro está localizado em um alto topográfico na porção do talude próximo a uma feição de cânion e à ocorrência de grabens alinhados, o Graben Merluza, coincidente com a ocorrência do Lineamento Capricórnio. As seções sísmicas mostram que na direção do plano sub-horizontal ocorrem falhas menos expressivas se comparadas à direção do plano subvertical onde ocorrem falhas que interceptam desde o horizonte do embasamento até os horizontes cenozoicos, o que indica que as mesmas foram ativadas ou reativadas em eventos neotectônicos. O mapeamento de uma falha normal antitética de direção NS, bastante expressiva ao longo dos dados, permite supor que uma tendência horizontal desse plano de falha poderia se vincular ao hipocentro do sismo.Palavras-chave: sismicidade intraplaca, sísmica, margem passiva.
QUARTZ PROSPECTING WITH INDUCED POLARIZATION (IP) AND RESISTIVITY BY USING GRADIENT AND DIPOLE-DIPOLE ARRAYS
Authors: Gallas José Domingos Faraco 
Published: April 2018

ABSTRACT. Geophysical surveys were accomplished in Bahia, Brazil, and they aimed at detecting resistivity and/or IP geophysical anomalies that may be correlated to large quartz mass occurrences that, in some cases, may have economic interest (hyaline high-quality quartz or quartz with rutile inclusions). These quartz masses occur in granitic rocks. The indirect geophysical detection of quartz masses was possible, however it could not differentiate the aforementioned types of quartz. After digging wells and trenches, the presence of milky quartz masses, without economic interest, was confirmed.Keywords: resistivity, IP, quartz prospecting. RESUMO. Os levantamentos geofísicos foram efetuados no interior da Bahia, Brasil, e tiveram como objetivo a detecção de anomalias geofísicas de resistividade e/ou IP que pudessem ser correlacionáveis às ocorrências de grandes massas quartzosas que, em alguns casos, podem conter quartzo de interesse econômico – quartzo hialino de boa qualidade ou com inclusões de rutilo. Estas massas quartzosas estão contidas em rochas de composição granítica. A detecção de massas quartzosas por meios geofísicos indiretos foi possível, contudo não permitiu diferenciar os tipos de quartzo supracitados. Conforme confirmações posteriores com escavação de poços e trincheiras, os resultados detectaram a presença das massas quartzosas, porém de quartzo leitoso, sem interesse econômico.Palavras-chave: resistividade, IP, prospecção de quartzo.

ABSTRACT. This article discusses the importance of the favorability evaluation, proposed in data-driven mineral potential maps (MPM), for decision-making in exploratory activities of petroleum and natural gas. We consider geophysical and geological information as evidences that define the essential elements of a petroleum system. We assess such evidences by means of weights of evidence methodology, which makes use of data coming from hydrocarbon discovering wells. We apply the proposed assessment in a case study in Sergipe-Alagoas and employ the results to classify areas of interest in different favorability levels. Keywords: petroleum systems, favorability maps, mineral potential maps, Sergipe-Alagoas basin. RESUMO.

CONSIDERATIONS ON THE APPLICATION OF THE MAGNETOTELLURIC METHOD WITH NUMERIC MODELING FOR EXPLORATION OF BASINS CONTAINING MAFIC SILLS: THE EXAMPLE OF THE SOLIMÕES UPPER AMAZON BASIN
Authors: Silva Lúcia Maria da Costa e , Miguel Sobrinho Marcos Kaíre 
Published: April 2018

ABSTRACT. The use of the magnetotelluric method (MT) in Brazil has been predominantly focused on understanding large geological structures. In the 80’s the method began to be used in petroleum exploration. Early results have been considered unsatisfactory. We modeled the MT response for the geology of the Solimões Upper Amazon Basin, one of the first basins where MT work was done in Brazil, where basalts sills are common, and showed its difference in comparison with the seismic section. The synthetic seismic sect obtained for the Solimões Basin allows observation of the shallow diabase sill only. However, for MT, the presence of the sill, especially if it is slightly magnetic, increases the depth of investigation possible, or allows the MT method at the very least to investigate the basement better than is possible with the seismic method.Keywords: magnetotelluric, MT, Solimões Basin, diabase sill, modeling, a priori information. RESUMO. O uso do método magnetotelúrico (MT) no Brasil tem sido predominantemente focado na compreensão de grandes estruturas geológicas. Nos anos 80, o método começou a ser usado na exploração de petróleo. Os primeiros resultados foram considerados insatisfatórios. Modelamos a resposta MT para a geologia da Bacia do Solimões, uma das primeiras bacias onde foi realizado levantamento MT no Brasil, onde soleiras de diabásio são comuns, para comparação com a seção sísmica modelada para o mesmo local. A seção sísmica sintética obtida para a Bacia do Solimões permite a observação apenas da soleira de diabásio mais rasa. Entretanto, para o MT, a presença da soleira, especialmente se ela é ligeiramente magnética, aumenta a profundidade de investigação possível, ou ao menos permite que o método MT investigue o embasamento melhor do que é possível com a secção sísmica.Palavras-chave: magnetotelúrico, MT, Bacia do Solimões, soleira de diabásio, modelagem, informação a priori.
